Well maybe not THE greatest but top 5. This catch became synonymous with the early Bassmaster TV show with Bob Cobb and Ray Scott. There is so much awesome in this catch from the rod and boat and of course the two great phrases that are still being used today.
Go to the 1:55 mark and enjoy!
That is cool. Watching those early years makes you realize just. How much things have changed.
I like the way he lands the fish without running to the back of the boat and then laying down in the seat screaming and spitting.
Good stuff right there!
It is amazing how load that trolling motor was.
I could watch that all day.
Red Sox in 6!
The Bassmaster Shows on TNN was the Greatest Show ever on TV....
Now BASS Live is..
I remember watching that in tv. I guess I’m officially old.

Right here in my neck of the woods! What is the TV commentators name?
Always liked the Megabucks tournament format
Old family friend Chuck Roberts produces those shows. He worked at Zebco when my dad was transferred from California to Oklahoma to work there back in 1971. Chuck picked us up at the airport & we did a lot of stuff together until he passed a few years ago. Lots of good memories.

I remember watching that episode, wish they would bring that format back with the holes using a live weigh and release.
I couldn't help but start laughing when The General powered up the trolling motor.
Love the 12/24 Motorguide Brute and the Hummingbird LCR in the background!
Love the fishin shirt and the dual console.

My club holds a megabucks style tournament every year.
