My dad used to watch you on TV when he was a teenager, now I'm a teenager and I'm watching you on KZfaq, that's so cool.

He has caught thousands of bass all over the world and still gets excited like a kid when he catches one. Amazing!

I used to watch Roland Martin on ESPN Outdoors years ago. Just about every time a catch a fish now, I say SON!!! Thanks for posting, just clicked subscribed.

These new KZfaqrs could learn a lot from you Roland. Basic and good information. Thanks for the adult version of fishing 👍🏻

Best part is hearing you say "staphococcus" six times in a row. Great content too! I wish I can become a veteran fisherman like you when I'm older!

Great videos, I'll be 50 years old this June and I remember watching your shows as a kid. Thank you for the great memories.

Watching Roland when I was a kid & now I’m in my 40’s, I still really enjoy his commentary and enthusiasm for fishing. So much to learn from Roland 👍🏻🙏🏻

"Come out with your fins up" that made my night 😂😂😂

Nothing better than watching Roland and Jimmy play off each other. My 2 favorite fishing pro's. My "dad" was essentially worthless so I learned about fishing from these guys and I'm eternally grateful ! My sons finally figured out that fishing is fun and cool, so now I can pass what I know to them. I'm diggin' it ! Thx Roland !

Been watching you for 41yrs now! Started with my dad and finishing it with my kiddos! Thx for the many years of enjoyment and all I’ve learnt watching you and Dance on the water! #TightLines

Sir, I grew up watching you fish for fun, TV, and Tournaments. You have my subscription. Thank you Roland.

Roland Martin is back! Love this guy. Watched him in the 90`s. Thanks. Subscribed!

Man I've been watching you fish since i was like 8. I'm now 36, and your still my favorite fisherman Roland. I've learned lot's from watching you! Thanks for all the years of entertainment, and knowledge. I'm a pretty good Bass fisherman thanks to your show, and watching you!

"I'm not trying to molest him!" ROFLMAO

Perhaps the best thing I've seen all year! Thanks Roland - you are a legend and it's an honor to see you fish. Learned a lot from watching!

I live in mtg Alabama my whole life.. in 1971 or 72 when Bass was just getting going there you and john powell tom mann came to Ray Scotts bass pro shop there and I was 9 years old.. you gave me a 6 pack of purple with white dots Creme worms.. ill never forget that.. i turn 61 on july 30 this year.. Thank you for that great memory..

Thank you Sir! One of the legends still doing it. I remember watching him on T.V. along with Bill Dance. I'm 54 now.

Great stories from a great fisherman. I watched you on Saturdays when I was growing up! Thanks for the entertainment!

Started fishing a few days ago I can't stop and watching your videos I've learned a lot, it's like getting in a BASS Mind.

Mr. Roland Martin 😊 loved to watch your shows Saturday mornings as a kid and while growing up. Thank you for the times.

I swear Mr. Roland, it's just as much fun watching you NOT catch fish as it is to watch you catch trophy bass! You're one of a kind!

I grew up watching you on Saturday morning and I found Scott and now your channels. Thank you for all the years of education and fun! And thanks for giving us Scott too lol! He is a hoot! Cheers from KS!

Been reading his stuff since the 70’s. Great to see he still has that joy in catching fish like I remember from all those decades ago. “Ooh son, come out with your fins up.” That was classic Roland Martin.

Mr. Martin, I must say that your influence on me back in the early 80’s has had a lasting affect. You encouraged myself and a friend to start bass fishing the canals and ponds west of town in northern Palm Beach County. At that time, I’d be hard pressed to tell a bass from a bluegill, but I learned fast. Using the barest of equipment and lures, simple plastic worms typically, we eventually made our way out to Lake O, where the big bass play. After watching this video, we certainly learned how big gators can change ones perspective of the hole you’re fishing, especially when the gator seems, or most likely is, bigger than your 10’ aluminum John Boat, though I’ve come to understand their behaviors much more since then. My friend Dennis soon became a business owner and his time is dedicated as such to this day, so unfortunately he has little time for what we enjoyed so carefree in our youth. As for myself, and my time is also somewhat limited, I have since taken my fishing explorations, though somewhat limited, into the saltwater realm as well. Offshore, near shore, inshore and fresh water are all fair game. My favorite target species of the salt water variety however, is Snook. And I will attribute that to you. The extreme similarities when casting for the smaller Snook in the mangroves and that of fishing for bass has brought me full circle. I sincerely thank you for that. I am so happy that I found your KZfaq channel. Thank you Mr. Martin, Bobby

I am so glad that you, Jimmy, Bill and Scott have KZfaq channels. I don't watch T.V and now I get to see all you guys again. One thing KZfaq allows you guys to do is be real, and I love that.

Rolands been a real hero of mine since I was a kid. What a phenomenal fisherman and perhaps an even better teacher. If you apply 25% of his techniques to your fishing game you will see a major improvement!

You have always been one of the most informative, instructional and interesting fisherman to watch. A real joy. Glad you are on KZfaq. Would be cool to fish with you sometime... Keep it up Roland!!

I love the look away and reaction after the strike, great bend in the rod!! I have always loved watching you, Bill, and Jimmy....I have learned so much from all of you throughout my life!!!

This is someone who truly loves and enjoys fishing, somehow makes me love it more too

I remember watching him as a kid, true legendary fisherman in my book!

It's awesome that he seems as excited now as he was at 15 to be out there landing bass. Fun to watch.

I have watched you for years, way easier now with social media, but I love how excited you still get, that’s why I love fishing, I go every chance I can. I also love watching the 3 legends working together. Roland you have one more subscriber can’t wait to see what’s next.

I used to watch him in the 80s when I was a teen. Thank you, sir, for the joy, passion and knowledge you shared with so many. It is certainly appreciated.

I don't know why, but I have this sudden urge to buy Whopper Ploppers.

Great video, Roland. I just got my first Whopper Plopper 75. Gotta see for myself what all the hype is about. Love your channel and your resort in Clewiston. I'm originally from Hollywood, FL and live in Sanford now. Been a fan of yours for 30+ years. Keep making great videos. I'll keep watching them. Ted Marshall Sanford, FL

All time favorite fisherman. Grew up watching your show. Enjoying your channel

I used to watch re runs of you on TV with my papa !! Such a great fisherman

Roland, I still love the Jim Strader's Diamond Eye you endorsed about 40 years ago. I have fished the whopper plopper but haven't gotten a fish yet. I actually found both of mine hung up in grass on the bank. People forget about the prop baits.I encourage more people to try prop-type topwater baits. My friend and I fished two days in a row in the 80's while on fall break and his Dad took us out on the third day and caught a 5-3/4 lb largemouth within his first two casts on first brush pile on a point on that Diamond Eye and razzed us all day about fishing two days and not getting a single fish and he got one in first 5 mins on water. Thanks for the video & God Bless You

My Dad and I were on a dock and my Dad yanked a nice bass over a gator, as the gator jumped to get it. One of the most amazing things i've ever seen.

Grew up in the 90's watching this guy on TV, his show was on right when I got home from school so I'd watch it almost everyday. Great to see he's still going strong, now I'm a fan because he has entertained and taught me so much throughout my life. Whatever you do, do not give the gators any fish because then they will NEVER leave you alone lol. Made that mistake first time I fishes down south, gators chased me all over the lake. Imagine how cool it would be to have a dad like Roland Martin? Much love and respect from Southern Illinois!

My Father told me when I was a kid, that most fishing lures were designed to caught the fisherman, more than the fish. That was more than fifty years ago. The Arbogast Jitter Bug, and the Heddon Crazy Crawler, will do the same thing. It is a top water gurgle bait in a new wrapper. But hey, I am going to buy me one too, because you can not have enough lures.

A big Thanks to Roland,Imet him 35 years ago or so at a tournament on Lake Mead(my home lake)and he told me know the water temp and adjust accordingly.I have caught fish ever since.Love you Mr. MAARTIN.

I don't know how you find the time to do two videos a week but i am glad you do.

I've enjoyed your show since I was just a kid. Glad to see you still in action! I picked up a couple Whopper Ploppers for an upcoming trip to Alaska. I'm hoping Pike will like them as well.

Roland, Thanks for all the advice over the last 30 years, just retired to my old Bass Tracker 165 Pro Team and Kerr Lake va👍🏼

Thank u for all the years of knolege you have past on to me n all my family and love ones. Keep them vids comeing. God bless you n menymore years of great advice.

What is most impressive to me is Rolands Casts . Every single one is precision .. not one single one lands in the weeds or Cattails .. he gets real close to shore but never ever misses . Very impressive .. many decades of experience obviously.

Omg, Mr Martin, thank you so much for your KZfaq channel, I grew up watching your TV shows, I just subscribed and cannot wait to tell everyone about your channel. Please please keep the videos coming.

Two things I’ll never get tired of. Fishing and watching my fishing hero’s fish.

Roland: I caught my PB using a Whopper Plopper on a Florida pond. 22" and estimated at 6.5 #s. Since I'm from WI that fish was amazing. Caught many others as well. Love the bait, love your videos. Thank you so much for taking us along. Keep your videos coming. We are blessed by your kindness!

I love watching your KZfaq videos you do a really good job explaining things and showing everybody what really works

I just LOVE when see says COME ON SON. LOL . He is very good fisherman .

Still so jacked about fishing after all these years. God bless this guy - true legend.

Great videos Mr Martin, been a fan for a long time. Just told my 14 year old son to subscribe and learn from a great teacher. Keep the instructional videos coming!!!

Grew up watching you with my Pops just like a lot of people here did and I love seeing you get into KZfaq and posting these awesome videos! Keep it up Sir!

It's great to learn from a true Master! Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and your channel.

Ive been wstching your stuff for 30 yrs.the whopper plopper is a big fish bait. I bought some of them.i can do the same thing with my very old crazy crawler or my nlack 5 8ths ounce jitterbug but dont want to lose them. Its the best lure to come out in a while. You never let us down roland

My new favorite KZfaq channel. Very informative sir!

I have been a fan of yours for many years. I just found this channel. Thank you.

I swear... this man doesn't age at all... I remember watching him on TV a LONG time ago, and he still looks the same..

I've learned so much from Mr. Martin thru his videos and book.

Just bought my first Wopper Plopper 90. Its Feb 16th now. Can't wait to try it out! Come on Spring! SHAWN

I miss your TV show you have so much information on how to fish and what lures to use ,glad to see you back on You Tube

Great video Mr. Martin; so glad an honored to receive your information. Thank you! You are certainly always cool and calm with those alligators, I would have trouble reaching into the water to land a bass after being stalked by a gator..and fishing from my belly boat (inner-tube) would be totally out of the question!😂 Not a problem here in central Texas but some in other areas and the coast. Thanks again. Fish On!🎣

Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup kzfaq.infoUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.

I'm so happy I found your channel I used to watch you every weekend d with my dad on TNN this is so nostalgic

i dont even need tips, i just wanna listen to rolands stories while i watch him fish. also that gator was really cool to see.

I love watching your videos because you are so enthusiastic

I happened on to you channel cant believe your still pluggin , glad to see you are, best tip i ever got from you years ago was haven a second rod ready on small mouth schools to throw in the bait before landing the first at the boat for following fish caught me many fish Thank you Roland Martian

Thanks Roland!!! Kind of funny, I have been day dreaming about the whopper plopper all day.

Excellent video as always 😁👍 love watching bass blow up on top water.

when i was a kid, you were my hero. glad to see you are doing well

LMAO..Son this takes the cake...I sub'd to Scott's channel,because he has the same friendly enthusiasm his dad has...And now I can watch my Fishing Hero again...and yes i to have the helicopter lures still

I too iam Baltimore too a course in ecology studied the eco system of the Chesapeake Bay learned a lot about how fish responds to different things with you for years good stiff thank you!!!!!!!!!!

"Come out with your fins up" 😂 love it

Good to see out they still fishing.and still having fun do it bless you.

Thanks, Roland!!! Keep up the great videos.....You are a legend...my favorite ever!!!

Glad to see you old cats still fishing. You and my dad used to fish against each other way back when.

Man i live in Ga i grow up seeing you and bill yall are the best

Hey, Roland! Never used the 75 Whopper Plopper. Just started using the 90 in I know it color. My buddy used the T 1000 color. Fished in the rain tearing them Bass up for over 4 hrs. Topwater is AWESOME. The Whopper Plopper is a great bait were the Senko was and still is number one. Shawn

I guess I shouldn't complain when a Pike snaps off my lure! At least I don't have to deal with gators!

Wow I had no idea you had a youtube page! Loved watching you when I was younger!

Total respect. Promoting good fishing is always a good thing!!!👍🏽

I'm sorry Mr. Martin, can you repeat that again? Was that Staphylococcus Infection? That editing had me laughing hysterically! Love the vidoes, very informative. Always look forward to them, and appreciate your time and effort producing them.

How funny. Ive never watched you before just stumbled in - but love your laid back style

Another awesome vlog Mr. Martin, watching these are very nostalgic.

I'm planning on a trip to a BPS tomorrow and I'm putting the 75 on my shopping list. Thanks for the video!

This gentleman looks like really enjoy fishing!! I love to watch him fishing :)

Thank you sir, love the channel, learning something everytime I watch. I caught my biggest bass to date on one other 75s.

Hey bud I’m born and raised on Kent Island , All my family are waterman, so obviously im addicted to water and fishing.. Was watching your video and then u commented that your from Maryland.. That was cool, plus I’ve caught some really nice Bass from using your tips. Plus I really enjoy how u teach, you give information quick , to the point and not dragged on like a lot of others.. Would love to see you in a video in Maryland, I’ve got a great spot for you to teach and catch! I go every morning before I have to get my jobs done . Either way keep up the great videos!

I just recently bought a Whopper Plopper 75 as you suggested, (made by River2Sea). I caught my first bass today using it!! Only a 15" bass but still exciting just the same!! This lure really works and really holds up well!! I use other top water lures too and this one is now at the top of my list!! Thanks Roland for bringing this to my attention. Might have never heard of it if it wasn't for this video!!

I watched Roland and all the greats as a kid, though I'm not a big bass fisherman (catfisherman here) I loved (and still do) his enthusiasm for fishing.

I grew up watching Rolland Martin!!!! I looked forward to watching every weekend when I was a kid

Thank you Mr. Martin. Fan from waaaay back. I admire both you and Scott. Thanks so much. Eric M

Thanks for the schooling and taking us along Roland👍

Mr. Martin I’m loving your channel keep up the great work! I will give that 75 a try here in South Louisiana.

Always learn something new when watching!

Great to see you still at it. Been following you since I was a kid.

“It’s a Staphylococcus infection”

Thanks Roland, I could watch all day!
