If you like that, you'd love to see me fishing a tournament in my Bass Buggy! When I first started, guys laughed at me. Who fishes a tournament in a pontoon? Now guys say I'm cheating, lol. It's not my fault my boat floats in less than a foot of water. It don't matter how fast you are if you can't get to the water that has the fish!

For those of you who don't know, Lake and Bay boats are F-ing 🔥

Thanks for the tour of Val's cave. I've Been a fan of Gambler Lures for a long time. I have a few of those 🦎 still hanging around and I still have a handful of the best Chatterbaits ever built. Yes their Gambler Swim Blades in the original box. Val please bring them back!

I think that is awesome that Val is fishing in the Lake and Bay. That is an unbelievable boat. I also see the SeaVee in the back ground. Val needs to take you deep sea fishing and you and Bogs do a video. Thanks for again Mikey and as always. Love to the Bogster...

I fished with Val as a Co-Angler. Great Dude and very humble person.

Great to see him throwing the two best baits on the market. What a winning team, Yo-Zuri and Gambler products in a Flats Skiff, HECK YEAH !!

Bye Val and congratulations on making the tour and good luck on tour this coming up year.

I've been watching you since the Florida Gambler days! Some of those flats boats fly. I just watched your deep Crank video. So in depth. My weakest technique by far, thanks for the input. You make me want to see what I've been missing. Can't wait to see you and Bog on the water next.

This is a fun show it's great to see the boat and the honesty of the colors of baits enjoyed the show good luck this year will be watching

Good luck Val and that DAM garage is friggin BADASS ❤️🔥🔥🔥

There are a couple Lake and Bays in south Florida running 104-107mph

That's a florida boys dream boat that doesn't go digging lol great video as always brother and let's go gambler and Val

He's got lots of stuff,but he ain't got bogg!!!😁

Founds your videos years ago, introduced me to Gambler lures and have been in love since.

That's awesome, Val is gonna smash them this year. He could fish out of a floating bath tub with a trolling motor and still catch em! Excited to see his progress this season, Great Job as always Mikey Balzz. Was that a quick appearance from Todd at the end? Great guy!

Boss must have wanted to have a meeting with you. Enjoy the warm weather. LOL!!!

That color looks a lot like the waterloo gold color, but more gold. This is super exciting! Frogs?? Dang!

That boat is sick trust me. I have a new Ranger R 91 that I bought new in 1999. In 2018 I got a small tech. Skiff a Piranha Raso. I love fishing from the skiff but the drive in the Ranger is hard to beat. I’m looking to do what he did on my next boat. A marriage of both.

Gambler baits rock!

Mikey I'd love to see more videos with Val!

Good luck this year

The gambler chatterbaits were awesome. I wish I could still get them

Love the trim tabs

Id love a big wide jon boat set up like that for grass. Love that boat. Keep it simple and clean. Ill take a few of them frogs for sure. Its about to be frogging time for me.

Awesome looking baits !!

Sounds great like to see it on the water 💧 good luck 👍

I like the Hawgtech stash of weights. Best made for sure.

I’m sure he has what I want. The GZ 6.5 in junebug. It’s killer on a few lakes here in Orlando.

Why did you discontinue that color?? I've caught more fish flipping mats with that cooler cricket than any other bait! Not to mention phenomenal for bed fishing....please bring it back.

And that’s one thing a lot of guys up here in Baltimore. It’s only me and probably eight other guys that use gambler plastics none of them own any lures , I have the pulsator and half ounce, and the blades are nice runs true it’s a good hook up ratio, and for some reason for me, then blades run better on a spinning rod maybe it’s just my hook ups do what you Gotta do, and I wish you much luck at the tournament Can’t wait to see your finish, I think you’re gonna be very happy with your outcome!!!!! remember, I said that

A). Gambler baits are top notch. The only baits I am using these days are Gambler or Yamamoto. B) Lake and Bay is the Cadillac of flats boats. I bass fished for a couple of decades out of a flats boats. C) Mikey BigBallzzz is in Florida???

Vals the man! 🔥🔥🔥🔥💪💪💯

Gambler frog - yes PLEASE.

My neighbor has a Lake and Bay 20 with a 450R Mercury. 110 mph, and stable

Good luck Val, really like that color of Flappin Shad. Can I have a Camo Gambler hat please.

Bro show the beer wall out in the house and he scared the hell out of me at santee in that boat with 20 mph winds😂 tell val I said what’s up and y’all come up to santee cooper and let’s catch some bigs!

Very cool...

Great video

I've been wanting one of those for a min

That’s a Bad A$$ Boat dude! I’ve seen like a 20 footer with a Mercury 450R on it and it would cruise at 85 and probably hit 100 before it was over!!???

Welcome to the goody room! 🤯

Loco lizard is off the chain!

Dang that thing is sick 🤙🏻

your stuff is so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Mikey, Been using gambler lures as long as I can remember started out with the bullet weights with the screw lock in them years ago I believe back in the late 80s, really like that 10 inch ribbon tail worm in the JB blue cannot find it how do I get a hold of it. Tell Val good luck in the tournaments hope it all works out this year. Love me some gambler lures!!!

Where can I get that JB Blue color at?? I definitely need those in my life please

Great video 👍

Nice vid Mike! I thought that I was a mentor or was I a mental? Oh well, best of luck to Val this season!

Can he make me blue craw in the why-not again? Placed a huge order bought a couple hundred a couple years ago, would have bought em out had I known they'd stop making that color. I'm running low though!

Dude does he have any super tubes a Flippin tube from late 90s early 2000s

I wish gambler packaged their swimbaits in clams so their tails weren’t always bent! That’s my only complaint !

All the years I’ve known you guys I always thought that you guys were cousins

FL boy in bama....can't understand why more dudes aren't trying a flats boat variation vs traditional glitter rocket.

What model is your boat?

Good for him ! Simple is the best ! That's why he has been fishing good ! Right no bells and whistles! Keep it simple stupid! Dont over think stuff ! Good luck gambler guy !!

I know it’s probably not one of your biggest bait sellers but I use it on my Ned rig and I’m a tell you you’re a little otters I smash big five pounder on them, and I hate to say it but you’re one beat that’s like a brush hog. I’ve had that for over eight years three packs of debt, and I have two of them left and green, pumpkin and the two twisty tails on the back of it or chartreuse I put them on a three eights easy wide gap hook.

Remember it's not so much the boat its whos in the boat !!!

I’ll take a quality flats boat over a bass boat all day! Nice video…

My question is did you get a goody bag😄

You’re the fucking man. Just kicking it with OGs. I pray to god I can fish with you one day bro. You should start doing guides. Much love Salzzys gay I think

Probably 85% of my plastics are Gambler - they are hard beat …

Does he own Gambler lure company?

👍👍👍👍👍👍

Great boat, too bad they don;t put it on a nice trailer !!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought you had to have a certain size boat because people were whining about smaller boats being able to go places there’s couldn’t. Didn’t someone get DQ’d after they won a MLF a few years ago because there boat was to small?

Where’s his dog

Hey Mike, I am first!!

If a color is and has worked. I’ll never get not continuing to pour that color. Just like a bungee worm. Taking baits that work away. No logical reason in my opinion.
