Brewster shared a video clip of the moment and Ali’s excited screams on Facebook and TikTok, where it quickly went viral, garnering more than 3 million views since March 12.
“Yes! It’s so big!” Ali said in the video. “I’m going to start crying … I don’t even care if it weighed like five pounds, that felt so good!”
Afterward, Brewster said Ali caught more than a dozen additional bass and told him, "Daddy, I think we have grown so much on this trip."
