the little side stories you share are the best. glad you are posting on youtube sharing your experiences. thank you, sir.

The best fishing tip video ever made. Bill Dance needs a lesson from you that is for sure. In ten minutes, you show a dozen good tips. Fix a rod, check it for bad guides and tell two wonderful stories about two famous people you had the honor to go fishing with that is just amazing. If you watch a tips video from Bill Dance you are going have to watch an intro, and two commercials and two minutes of him reading questions and then he throws in more commercials and you might learn one thing maybe, if you don’t fall asleep before the end. I love this video!

The story about you and President Bush is worth the video. Well done! -mM

Hahaha Roland that is an awesome story with the president!!! Tight lines my man!!!

To go from talking about negative comments to talking about fishing with a former president with such a humble tone. Roland, you're a legend for more reasons than one. Thank you for what you do for the sport, sir.

The way you do your videos reminds me of a time when television was a lot better. The way you talk to the camera and make the viewer feel like they are along for the ride is 2nd to none. The lackluster stuff on TV these days can NOT compete. Keep up the awesome work, Roland and Team!!

If Roland said the damn fish weighed 5lbs then it weighs 5lbs dammit

Rolands a master Fisherman/ Teacher and a Great guy, I’m 38 years old and have been watching him since I was a kid with my dad. Keep the videos coming Roland 👍

Only a tween would question Roland's ability to estimate fish weight. 😂

Imagine the stories this man has from 40+ years of fishing! One of my fav episodes.

Only Roland Martin would give us a video with good, concise, common sense knowledge about what you're gonna need to get out on the water and do some fishing. I don't see anyone else doing it! Thanks a bunch Roland!

One of my favorite episodes. No fish caught but I love the stories. Son, President Bush and Mel Tillis in the same show. Keep up the good work.

I’m glad you created a channel Roland! Been watching you since I was a boy and always enjoyed your show and tips!

Roland you are my favorite all-time OG of fishing you always have good info and you dont always try to sell products on private ponds like the rest. You've inspired me since a kid and still to this date. I'm glad to see you're son scott are doing so well. You two are really appreciated and fun to watch.👍

Great guy and a legend in the sport of fishing. I love his continued passion even at this advanced age. An exceptional teacher indeed.

Thank you, Roland. I love your KZfaq series. I always come away from watching having learned something new.

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos and sharing your experiences and knowledge about fishing. I look forward to each one and I am enjoying and learning so much from you. Thanks again,. Happy fishing!

i laughing so much i cry about that tooth incident. Love this guy.

Roland your a true OG, love the videos! Im 22 and i've learned alot. Also the story about the president is real neat!

That was the best fishing story I ever heard 👍🏼

I’m really liking these videos. I hope you keep doing them. You are a good teacher and you have great stories too.

The stories are too funny! Love it👍😁👍

Sir the time you take to make these videos is very appreciated thank you they are awesome.

Just 3 mins into the video and we get an awesome pliers story. That's worth a thumbs up right there. :)

Mel Tillis use to come up to Delaware quite a bit. I also use to live in Laurel, MD and use to fish out of the Nanticoke River. That was great fishing!!! Went to high school in Milford, DE

Loved those stories with Bush and Ol' Mel!

Roland is a hero.

YOU SEEM LIKE JUST A FUN GUY. I WISH I COULD JUST TALK WITH YOU. AFTER HOOKING MYSELF AND GOING TO THE ER, MY FIRST STOP WAS HOME DEPOT AND BUY CHANNEL LOCK BRAND WIRE CUTTERS. I TESTED THOSES GUYS OUT ON REALLY BIG SALTWATER HOOKS MANY TIMES. I NEVER GO FISHING WITHOUT MY CUTTERS. AND YES I HAVE USED THEM AGAIN. GOT TO PUSH IT THROUGH AND CUT THE BARB AND THEN TAKE A SHOT OF WHISKEY. AND THEN SAY THANK YOU LORD!

Man I grew up watching you on TV and I am so glad you are on you tube

You are a national bass fishing treasure. I was howling at those stories. Love how you mention that you’re an old school teacher, not mentioning that your are a bass fishing hall of famer and polled as the second greatest bass angler of all time!

wow Roland you saved history with your pliers! I always carry needle nose pliers in my hip holster with me everywhere

I love the side stories , i would honestly love to hear more of them

Thanks for the tips and great stories 👍🎣

great videos love the old school teaching ways

Great stories mr. Martin like watching your channel my kind of guy old school

His name droppin game is lit. Lol

Awesome instructional videos! Learn something new every time!

Hey Roland, you can also use super glue to seal up a cut! Then Keep on fishing!! Doctors use it.

Good tips, great stories!

Great Roland. I always learn something from you. A long time fan. Jay

Roland, You talk to people like you have know them your whole life. When my father talked fishing with people he talked with confidants. But not cocky! Thanks for teaching me all these fishing tips. No boat.Bank fisherman. You tips have helped me make friends and catch bigger fish. Shawn

Wow haven't seen you since I was a kid. Alot easier to see you're shows now. Great to see your show again.

Roland it was a pleasure to spend time with you again.thanks.see you Sunday friend

much respect for Mr Martin, I've always watched your TV programs & followed you as a bass fisherman...keep up the youtube!

Nothing more nothing less great video thanks for sharing

I love you Roland.......😁!!!!!!! I’ve watched you since I was very young. I’m so glad to see you back on the big screen! Better than ever...🎣🇺🇸

Super glue works for cuts deep cuts. And your the shit your my idle and I love your stuff and you too for teaching me how to fish the best ever. Show videos on how the lures that break and you love them and recondition them.

I was waiting for the presidential plier story to take a turn like the secret service freaked out as soon as Roland stuck pliers to the presidents hands haha

Thanks for the fishing advice.

Thanks Roland! Great tips!

Amazing video!!!!! Awesome stories....So entertaining Roland.....Love this...keep up the videos!!!!! love it

When you catch as many bass as Roland in his life time you become and expert in guessing weight. I had my line snap several times losing big fish. Saying what the heck? Checked my eyelet and the ceramic insert was messed up as you said. Great video and love your stories. Have you ever fallen in? I have a fishing buddy that has done it twice, once trying to haul in a big one.

Thanks Again ROLAND for sharing your Getting Prepared to Fish. Take along Water & Lunch also. Toilet Paper may Save Your Day. Good Luck Fishing Brother.

Thanks for the tips.

Mr. Martin, you are awesome!

I fish crappie but I only have all spinning if I go for a bass, still i have a ton of experience using senkos: doing the lift sit, off the bottom pop but I know 70 cents per senko and the yum dingers better when I go out for bass.

A Big thank you for your fishing tips!

Thank you, sir. Love your stories and especially appreciate your experience and knowledge.

Great stories love the listening you tell a story it’s great keep it up thanks

Ha Ha. Funny stuff on the pliers thing.

Mr Martin, THIS IS AN IMPORTANT QUESTION!.... When you say “Watch the line!”....exactly where do yo watch it? Along the fishing pole?...as the line is entered in the water? Where do YOU look at your line? You are a wealth of information and knowledge. And you teach so amazingly by word and then you put it into action by showing how to do it. A master at teaching for sure. Thank you so much sir.

Roland has some great fishing stories!

Looking great young man. @ Roland Martin......

Thank you Mr Martin for another great video

Thank you so much for the tips. Great advice,especially the "sharp knife" it's a must. Thanks again Roland your the man.

Huge fan you are the best. Thank you for the great videos and the work you put into making them. Also thank you for your service!

You always have a surprise up your sleeve. Those stories were great, and I have made it a habit to have super glue at least in my tackle box. Works almost too well (especially when you get hung up) haha

Roland - you Rock!

Thanks for sharing your tips!

Great video, Roland. Enjoyed the story about GHWB

Thank you for being willing to share your experiences and teach us how to grow in our passion for fishing. I've got your "101 Bass Catching Secrets" book and have really enjoyed reading it.

Love the stories. Especially the tooth one. That one made me laugh hard. Do some more story vids. Would love to hear them

Roland you got great stories you should write a book

cant stop watching ur vids, thank u mr martin , :)

Roland will you should come fish some of the lakes in south eastern Kentucky. They are some of hardest to fish lakes around. They can get 190’ deep and some of us would like to see an expert fish them.

I'm hooked on this channel

Thank you Roland great content

Great stories. Fish on!

Good video Roland you're a great fisherman

Long time fan. New subscriber. Keep 'em coming.

I really look forward to your videos. Keep it up !

Wow! Great pliers story. You maybe should frame 'em and put 'em on the wall in your office.

You are a damn legend, please talk about your wins in the 1980's. I love the vids but I want to see the master come back... I love all of the rear drag reels from the 80s, i still use rear drag reels today.... :)

Roland your the man !!!!

Roland , you got one heck of a man cave !!

Great video Roland 👍

Gotta love the guy.

Awesome video 👍

Roland ,you need to put those Pliers in a Frame & hang it on the wall

Sunglasses helped me save an ear. Kid in front of the boat casted and caught the ear piece on my wiley x glasses and threw them in the lake.

This is awesome content!

Great story about Bush

Thank you legend!

I like all you videos

im starting to love his content.

I actually got hooked in the eye it wasn't pretty needless to say I never leave the house without sunglasses either

I was fishing with a buddy of mine in a jon boat in the lake behind his condo when I had a small bass I had just caught wiggle and drive a stick-bait treble hook into my hand. We went back to his house where his wife was (she's a medical tech) to see if we couldn't get it out of my hand with her help. It turned out his sister (a nurse) and her husband (an anesthesiologist) had just stopped by. His wife and sister washed my hand down with that evil purple anti bacteria stuff they put on you before surgery and then his Brother-in-law injected the spot where the hook was with some local anesthetic, waited a couple seconds and jerked that hook out of my hand. Then my buddy and I climbed back in the jon boat and continued fishing (and I didn't even get a bill for the surgery).
