We also break down big changes to the 2026 AMS Big 20 Challenge: First place adjusted from $10,000 to $7,500 to spread payouts deeper Buffalo limit reduced from 10 to 5 to tighten up weights and increase competition What does it mean for strategy? For teams chasing checks? We dig into it. Then things get… uncomfortable.

It’s as bad as it sounds. Kranky the Carp calls in with underwater intel. We relive the heartbreak of the Big Fish That Got Away. And of course… it wouldn’t be complete without Fish You Wish — where the fish gets bigger, the stories get wilder, and someone’s definitely stretching the truth.
