First Time Fishing BASS with Sal Frisella

What's up, you guys? We are here in South Carolina for our first ever first form bass fishing tournament. We ran the sweepstakes. And tonight we get to pair the winners with the professional angler. So we're gonna randomly draw a name out of the hat. And they're gonna be partnered with them. I'm gonna be on a boat with old man Sal, who's the CEO of our company. So we're gonna go up, draw those names. We're gonna have a little dinner, talk a little, and get ready for tomorrow.

Hey, I wanted to take a quick second to welcome everybody, Our friends from the npfl. Thanks for having us. I know all the rules about bed fishing. I'm gonna cheat. So I've already paid the judge off. He's. He's an easy. He's an easy have for a couple hundred bucks. It's a cheap day. We're gonna have a great day tomorrow. We're gonna have fun and appreciate you guys coming out and spend some time getting.

Hey, y'.

All. Won't catch a fish tomorrow, but you're.

Gonna have a good time.

Get.

Not off the table. My partner's gone. That one stings. I thought that was my ringer.

We just take this photo right now.

Early.

All right.

All right. Eat, drink, be married. Be ready to roll in the morning. Somebody's going to win.

Ready, babe?

My guys ready to go. Boats out there ready to roll. Ready to win somebo. My name on the check.

Hey, buddy.

Chaz.

What the are you wearing?

So this is a shiner. So the.

This is so I can whoop Aaron's ass.

So this what I got. You want to know what's inside of it? Oh, wait. Ah, bro. Those days are over, my friend on the end. No, this is the best right here, brother. Got some por grind.

This is actually a pretty good look. You could be. I mean, you're kind of like. I mean, I know you think you're a fisherman, but you're more park ranger.

I need to be able to see. So here's my strategy. Ah. Sal, it hurts.

Wait, no. We got you on camera hitting me, bro.

I was.

You're my partner.

We're in the same boat, dumbass.

And talk to everybody else, not me.

Some mind games have started. All right. I'm winning this thing, bro. That's bad. Champ is here.

Come on, bro. Chad, you might sit here. He's probably gonna hustle.

You ain't never.

I'm gonna tell you.

Nope. I've never done.

This was a setup. They put me at the back of the boat. All action's at the front. Some boo. Why do you think they did that? I don't know. It was Sal's idea.

Told me I was gonna catch a lot of fish back here, but both of them are sitting up there a little weird.

Oh, shit. Sorry, Sal. Hold on. Well, this pole must have some glue on it or something.

I'm skipping in the pool. It don't matter. Look at that, though, man. I'm right on.

You think this is more of a pork rind crowd or a meat stick crowd? A meat stick crowd. I thought they're into the pork rind. Do you like pork rinds? The key is you can't lose a. Dammit. I lost the pork rind.

Brennan, just make sure you get this shot here. Cause I look like I'd be on the COVID of Bassmaster. You know what I'm saying?

You ever teach any seminars, Matt? You ever need any help at all? Sometimes.

I can promise you, Chaz, Johnny Morris ain't calling you to teach him how to fish.

Yep. They're hiding, brother. Knew the Chocolate Devastator was on his way, buddy.

They said what?

The Chocolate Devastator was on his way.

Chocolate Devastator?

Look at that flop. This right here is. Honey, I got nothing left. See that, Sal? Look, I got none left in the tank. How you doing? Oh, whoops.

You can go up the left side of that cob. Y' all not fishing a turn?

No, we're not fishing. The tournament. What else you got? Yeah, yeah. Oh, man. They. They ate my. Hey.

You want this little guy?

Better somebody working for a living.

Oh, that's a big one right there. That's a big one.

Oh, yes, sir.

There we go. There we go.

Chats hold up like a grown ass man. What am I doing?

Yeah, see that, Man.

I can't eat my pork rinds with these fingers anymore. Look. It's a little tangy, brother.

Bro, this is some baloney.

Oh, him. White Chocolate Devastator.

Hey, can I. Can I. Oh, golly scared.

Nice.

That's all.

Wow. Let's go.

Oh, God.

Chad, do not let him go in the water. Do not let him go in the water.

Just remove him.

He got teeth, bro. You need to. You need to relax, buddy. Just chill out.

Man.

They're all the same size like you said.

Oh, there's a female in there. Just a little tiny spotted bass. We don't want him. At the end of the day, I'll claim it.

Use a fine motherf cker, won't you?

Back that ass up.

When I'm out here slaying fish. The bar of Choice is Level 1, Level 1 by First form as a proper meal replacement bar offers about 20 grams of protein, 240 calories, and a lifetime of memories when you fish with your friends.

I did.

I told you that was it, brother. I gotta sing to it. That's what it needs. You gotta serenade the fish. Yep. No different than a woman. Come here, girl.

That's it for me. I got.

Got cut a little short. I gotta catch a flight home. Got my 10 year anniversary. Make it home in time. Mama ain't gonna be happy with me, but my man Matt put us on some fish today. We did good. I caught three. Chaz helped out. I gotta head out, but they're gonna stay out here for another couple hours and finish her in.

We'll get her done two hours later. Yeah. Crossing style left. Well, it's not. It's not necessarily about how many you caught. What have I necessarily improved on? So my casting's gotten a lot better. Technical difficulty. Yep, yep. You caught me at a bad time, buddy. A real, real bad time. I done tangled myself up in this one.

I said we have five. We're a team, Jeff. It does not matter how many I caught, okay? All that matters is we, as a team, caught fish.

There it is. All right. Am I supposed to drain the water or something? So I'm just supposed to grab these things? What the hell? Hi. Yep, that's right. Oh, come on, man. But I'm trying not to hurt the fish. I'm a conservation. I am a conservationalist, sir. Oh, relax, buddy. Bro, he said I couldn't grab by the tail.

He's right.

He's right. There you go.

There you go.

Just get it. There you go.

All right. One down.

Bro. Give me a second, brother.

Gonna be 11.22.

Man, I thought we were gonna win that thing. I think we're in third or fourth now, but I'll take it.

Going to the house.

Got chocolate devastator, brother.

Yeah, it was just stuck. That's all. The bag. The bag was just stuck. 25 pounds. 25 pounds. Here we go.

25 pounds, Paul.

Here we go.

Almost 25 coming here.

8.21, give or take a couple of. Well, we did a little fishing. I did a lot of watching, actually. Watching people catch fish. I caught zero.

My man here was slaying them all day, and Sal called a couple, but we just couldn't qualify those. I had one of the funnest days on the water. I've had in a long time with these guys, you know, it was. It was Sal caught one of the very first gas. First one, bro. Jinx the boat. Yep. It was a big one, too. And being the good guy that Sal is, he did catch the biggest fish. We just had to put it back so that you guys had a chance. Retirement. Brother, you want to keep these on the boat? Good luck, Char. We're going to declare the winner of.

The first annual firstborn fishing tournament is Mr. Baron Adams and Matt Huy.

All right.

Congratulations, y'.

All.

Give him a big round of applause.

Baron and Matt, what are we gonna.

Do with 2,500 bucks?

Probably gonna go with my baby savings. Hey, boy.

That's responsible.

I was looking for buying fishing baits or something like that, but I'll get a starter kit for him, actually.

What prompted you to enter the contest?

I've been fishing since I was two.

And a half, three. My papa threw a rod in my hand.

Started me early. Love the sport ever since and want to keep going.

How long have you been following along with first form?

About past six years. Wow.

Right on. So if you want to turn somebody on to first form and just offer them one item, what would it be?

Shopping Milkshake level one. That's my favorite one so far. Basic classic. Can't go wrong there. That's the spoon, right?

And brother, so are you, my friend. Congratulations. Spend that money wisely in the baby's mind. There we go, y'.

All. Give it up.

And that is a wrap to the 2024 first form bass fishing tournament. Guys, we had a blast. We didn't catch very much fish. Our angler did everything for us. But it is not about us. It's about the community and bringing everyone together. Mac Hussy is our first winner. 2500 bucks. Tune in for the next one and don't forget to, like, comment. Subscribe and we are gone. Peace.
