Exactly. Be careful and maybe think before you type.

I like watching his videos however if he's not on Lake Tyler but another lake then how can I be sure he caught 30lbs in 4 hours? The video editing could have been done over a full day or few days but he just has to say it was over a 4 hour period... Once you start a fib it opens up a rabbit hole to go down...

You are right. This is precisely why I don't interject my opinion into anything other than work/fixing boat related topics, because of replies like this. The only reason I even bother having social media is for work. However since I'm here, I'll just say that you may be right. I wasn't there, didn't pay enough attention to the video to see exactly what happened, but I do know Naconiche is a very small lake. That spot is a community hole, and it appeared that he came to within casting distance upon them striking up a conversation about Livescope, at which point milliken was mocking him and playing dumb. It appeared Mike trolled over to attempt to show him how his setup worked, too old and blind to see that Milliken already had one. Did he get too close? Maybe he did. Could milliken have politely asked for some space? That's what I'd have done. Situations like this really just make me sad. My personal view is that generation had it tougher than we ever did, and guys like Mike are the best ones to listen to stories while you drink coffee at the gas station, the ones who pull paper pictures of bass out to show you old catches, and the ones who'd give you every worm in their boat if you asked for them. But again... am I right? Perhaps not. Maybe Mike ran his boat into milliken for all I know. My final thought is just simply that regardless of a situation on the water, I just personally didn't think Milliken showed Mike any shred of courtesy, albeit maybe in a bad situation that Mike put himself into, but rather seized an opportunity to make a "funny" video poking fun at an old man who quite literally fishes that lake 6 days a week, and has for the 5 years I've known him. He's like the old man riding the dirt road checking his fence for cows as far as Naconiche goes. Everyone knows him, he's out there everyday, and he's always checking everybody out, seeing what's going on. Who knows, maybe Mike deserved it, but based on what I remember seeing and everything I know about Mike, I would wager a good bit that he did not. But what do I know.

Holy chit I cannot believe this is still around. I have never seen more grown men get upset about him lying about a lake. Meanwhile its the same folks watching A LOT of the MLF guys straight up CHEAT in their last event.

9 pages and allot of Butt Hurt going on

But those guys get 751hrs of airtime on 5 different networks.

I bet every guy complaining on here lies about a $100 jackpot tournament they have fished, but get mad when that MFer doesn't say what lake he's on. If I had a local fishing business in tyler i would love it. He has made the locals around ivie more money in a year then they made in the last 5 combined I bet!

I cant understand all the hubbub about a fisherman lying,...com'on man, we talikin bout fishin.

Oh god. Wait till you realize every pro fisherman out there LIES about using their sponsors tackle. what are we going to do now? Can't trust anyone. Wow.

+1

I hope they say at the meeting there is to be no cheating at this event, and the necessary adjustments to the results are made from the Cayuga event. We shall see.

As far as mulligan, maybe he states the wrong lake to get a rise…he does catch them though.

Where is Mark Jones regarding all the recorded cheating by multiple pros when you a need him!!!

So I went back and watched this... I'm not BM's biggest fan or anything, but I don't dislike him either. I don't care for the clickbait model he uses, but it works for him. He's obviously a heck of a fisherman, but tbh this video just turns me off of him... no reason to be a complete a$$ making fun of the guy. It's people like this in the world I just don't have any interest in.

I just don't understand the love chuckle for this guy on here. He puts out a video where he lies about what lake he's on and shows a map and how he breaks down fishing a lake he's not even on. I guess I'm confused. But that's lying. But he is selling steez a t shirt.

Good one!
