TikTok is the perfect place for content creators to take a simple concept and find a wide audience. That’s what this week’s Must-Follow TikToker did to amass over 10 million likes and nearly 500 thousand followers. Deep sea fisherman Blake Haass, better known on TikTok as @maverick_207, gained their following by posing a simple question… Will It Fish? Thanks to the popularity of the concept, Will It Fish is now a must-see TikTok series where Blake takes viewer suggestions for what to put inside his lobster traps to discover what it catches.
Blake’s placed a variety of things inside his traps, including hot dogs, cheese, and your favorite fast-food restaurant burgers. Once the traps are set, this TikToker drops them into the ocean and then updates viewers about what that particular item of food caught and the results are fascinating. We’ve never even cared for deep sea fishing but Blake’s concept is so interesting that we look forward to seeing which sea creatures are tempted by gross human food. Of course, you don’t have to take our word for it. Check out our favorite videos from @maverick207 and discover why this TikToker is so damn popular.
