I kind of thought the same thing...the fish are no doubt awesome but I was also confused how he had all 4 lying on the deck at the same time despite the fact he has video catching then immediately releasing them at the same time.

Like you guys, this appears to be another Roland Martin and Bill Dance video. Not saying he did not catch them but it definitely appears he went back out hooked the fish and let them swim away so he could catch them for the video, then release them. I don't think I'll be watching any more of his videos because they must be staged. Sure hope the fish live after all that handling and twice catching.

My thoughts exactly...Great day, great fish, remarkable accomplishment...But something aint right hmmm. The hook set, the way the fish are {not}fighting at the boat...Looks a little staged to me bro, Im just saying.

Im guessing it went something like this...Went out had a great day, called a buddy...BRING ME YOUR VIDEO CAMERA! He shows up and the show begins...No guy in his right mind, who is on fish like that, is going to video the EXACT spot he caught those fish...Dont get me wrong, that is an awesome day but Im calling BS on the production. thumb

TAC.com, here's what I don't understand about the entire video. You obviously staged the portion of the video where you catch the fish. You're a "fishing show" so where was your camera man during the real catches? Seems as though a guy producing bass fishing videos would have a camera in the boat from launch til take out. And I will also state that your fish handling practices leave much to be desired.

This Post is AWESOME! Video is a Joke! Nice Toads Bro but it was all a Joke! Fouzman says it best!

I love how Bill Dance has 837.35 lbs of fish on his best 5! That dude should never loose a tournament!

Yeah, it's a nice stringer for sure, but the fish look to be pretty stressed due to all the handling and staging the show. One of the last fish caught looks like it's belly up as it's being reeled in. Those fish probably didn't make it.

Whats really going to be funny is the guys that do fish the lake, POUNDING, that staged "SPOT" he shot the video on...Just to be sure cheers

The whole thing is really sad, for a guy to try and BS people with this production on what "looks" to be a day any of us would have loved to have had, or even just been a part of.

Did you really think people were going to buy this CENSORED?!?!

The unfortunate thing, is that guy is relatively well known in Austin.

WOW, I dont ever dis anyone for how they treat fish, or if they keep one to mount or whatever they want, but the way it seems these fish were caught (seems they were caught photographed then reeled back in for the camera) is just wrong. I cant understand why someone would want to treat that many large fish that way. I can understand a guy catching the one biggest fish of his life and mounting it, but not trying to kill four in one day. Luckily water was cold so they may have made it
