I’m an old white guy who enjoys your videos. If someone can’t tolerate your ads or the sound of your braid, they need to learn how to adjust or mute the volume, or fast-forward. Keep up the good work.

Justin do not ever think what you do fishing bringing us as viewers high quality videos is an inadequate job. Even if I'm laying In a hospital bed for whatever reason I'm going to be looking forward to your next video.i know and realize that this is my opinion but I also don't care anything about what's on TV today weather cable or satellite in which there is litte difference anymore.

Great job. Love the bait run videos. You should do more of them. This is the perfect format for that. Raw and uncut is easy for editing and the length is perfect for a bait video. The mic was fine with the braid. That umbrella rig looks easy enough to make myself. I will 3D print the center and I have some 400lb leader material for the arms.

Seriously my blood pressure is high a lot of times, but when I am watching or listening to your videos I am in a nice and calm mood my blood pressure is good. When I do that while fishing I feel almost happy a little and honestly I am very rarely happy except when I am doing stuff with my kids and when I am fishing and listening to your conversations.

Dang brother ! You’ve had some good fishing days I see 👍👍. I was watching the catfish vids and enjoy catching them myself . I m in Ohio and like to go under Lake Berlin dam to catch some nice catfish and rock bass , crappie , could be anything under the falls but to get to the other side takes an athletic person . I eve caught some monsters in my day . The largest bass I caught I threw back . Its eye was the size of baseball and it was a record for sure . She was pregnant and as long as 3 size 12 timberland shoes 😂. I ve never seen a bass that big since, not on tv or vids although there s some big ones . It was in a couple acre pond of all places in Liberty Ohio on old man Cafaro s property . Someone will know who and where , the gazebo is on the island in the middle . What a great spot . That was back in 1999 . She was all yellow tips on the fins and just looked old as the property . The funniest thing is she was caught on a snag while reeling in . Yeah , the eyes were as round or more than a coffee cup rim , rounder than a can of tobacco . More like in between a baseball and softball . I need to head up to Lake Erie and see what’s happening up there but usually I like to go Mosquito lake and catch some walleye to make mom and dad happy . We got some big bucks around here too but I became friends with all the deer around here and felt bad about taking them down before I turned 50 . If I see a big one coming around during the rut I ll go for it with my bow . As far as the mommies and babies anymore I like having them around and they get used to me so unless I’m starving or poor I don’t see the reason unless it s an old giant buck . I like to see the animals get old and stick around . 👍👍🦅.
