@andrewwheat7805 2 күн бұрын

It's not hard to predict where the fish will be even when bank fishing... we already know how they behave at different times.. like right now in florida, I been catching multiple 8-12 pounders every weekend for the past 2 months and I don't even own a boat..

Fishing does not only relief your stress and pressure but also sharing it with friends, helps you to find peace of mind. So share it with friends and help them to relief stress and pressure. At the same time sharing the fun of fishing turns strangers into friends in a few hours. Thanks for sharing this nice fishing

Just bought two Jerkbaits. I always wanted to try them out. I watched your Jerkbait video Scott. Now I have a good idea how to get started. I am 63. Been bass fishing since five years old. Used Rapala suspended baits in the 80's. Shad raps. This should be interesting today. Going fishing this afternoon. Will give them a try. Shawn.

What the Martin family has done for the fishing industry is beyond priceless. I grew up watching his father. And, STILL watch him. Roland's so genuine, and relatable. Looks like Scott was given that gift, as well. This is interesting... That doesn't look like a Florida lake. My question is what colors are they using in Florida (Harris, Toho, Okeechobee, etc..). Using solid vs translucent, I get...it's the colors I've not heard anyone really talk about (as far as Florida goes). I'm one of those guys that likes to learn just by getting out there and putting in the hours, and doing what works best for me. *But, we live in a day and age that a bait now costs anywhere from $10-$25. The idea of buying every colored offered, then seeing what works is no longer affordable. So, I'm trying to figure out what they're using in central Florida.* Thanks for another great video, Scott.

Nicely done, Thank you. Instead of a video where I only get to watch someone show off, ( so many others are like that) you, are polite and a very good instructor. I have been figuring out Glenville lake, near Cashiers NC. The surface temps are in the upper fourties, a few places 50. I am going to have a good time using what you showed me. Lately I have had the lake to myself. I caught a three pound Brown trout on a jerkbait Sunday. Thank you Scott. George.

Scott, just a thought for a future video. You are fishing a tournament series on multiple lakes throughout th country through multiple seasons. You are allowed to have and use pretty much any bait but you can only have 5 rods in the boat. You have to begin and end the season with the same rods and reels. What length and actions are the rods, what reels do you pair you with each rod and why.

Jerk baits are new to me. I've had some luck with them so far. I wasn't sure if I was using the right rod or not. It's definitely a different bite than I'm used to. I've only been bass fishing for almost a year now and am learning new techniques as I go. Getting ready to drop shot on the next cold front to come through. Any pointers will be great.
