I've bank fished all of my life and have had great success. I got a kayak for father's Day and it opened up a whole new world of possibilities. Last year my dad got a 14ft aluminum boat and that's opening up another world of possibilities on the water. Even with all that said there is nothing better than hitting the lake after work for a few casts and hooking into some nice fish. Thanks for sharing. As a father this video was dope bro. Love seeing you spend time on the water with your son 👏🏾 👏🏾

It’s cool to see a professional fisherman get so excited to catch a fish and just having fun. Even better to see your son’s smile when he catches fish.

I remember last time you guys were at this pond, brooks didn’t even want to hold the bass, now look at em! “I wanna hold it” that’s growth people!!

I've got my first kid on the way and watching you with your son got me so excited for the future with mine. Can't wait to take my little one fishing. 😍

Wading the local river was the most influential factor in helping me finally somewhat get over a very long spell of depression last year. It made me want to get up in the morning at a time when nothing else did. I've actually decided to go back to school for Fish and Wildlife Management. Finally found something I can be passionate about. I'm really glad I decided to pick a rod back up last summer.

That smile your son had when he hooked that first fish was awesome.

I just started taking my boy fishing and it really is something special. I realized now how special those moments really were with my dad when I was a boy learning to fish.

Thanks B Lat watching that little guy smile made my morning

Absolutely my favorite vid of yours so far. Your little boy is adorable. Surely will touch the hearts of many fathers.

The Popper is my favorite Lure!!! I caught my PB from the bank on one! A 4’4 pounder!

Fishing with your kid… priceless. 30 yrs ago and I still remember my boys catching their first trout and bluegills from shore. Regarding the small lakes and ponds, I think we underestimate the potential for Bass even near urban areas. Great way to test lures and improve technique too. Nice video!

The look on his face when he caught that crappie. That's the best part of fishing with little buddies.

Bank fishing when you’ve figured out which lure can’t be beat. Great video

Awesome video, Brian! Always cool to see the big man reel in a few, and he's holding the fish now?! 🤯💪🎣 Appreciate you showin' some love to us pond hoppers!

Best bank fish video ever hands down!

man i just love the daddy son bonding

Most of the ponds I fish are farm. Not all are cattle ponds, but they aren't as well kept as the one you were fishing. Lots of small bass competing for bluegill. No cover to speak of. They leak. But, as you say, the bass love top waters. The thrill of the hit is what keeps me coming back.

Man. I teared up watching that. Memories to last a lifetime. Fishing with Dad. Now I'm the Dad fishing with my kid. I've seen the video of BLat fishing with his Dad too. ✌🏻🎣

Thoroughly enjoyed this. One of the best bass fishing videos I’ve watched in a long time. Much love and respect.

“Can you throw towards this dock?” “no😂” as he catches a fish 😂😂

That’s me I fish at ponds here in Ft.Wayne In.,hope your SUF was a success,enjoy watching you in your clips especially with your son and Dad

That smile on Brooks face with the first fish was priceless.....

the thing i enjoy most about your channel is watching you be such a good dad.

Man, I really appreciated this video. I have a boat but I live in NY and fish mostly in NJ and it's just so expensive with tolls, ramp fees and gas, not to mention all the electric only and horsepower restricted lakes that I can't use. I'm getting back into beating the banks, it gives me a lot of access, it's cheaper, and it gets me back to my roots. Getting your kid out there, making memories is awesome. You're a good man, and a great dad. Great video bro.

Brilliant video. I still fish with my 28 year old son as much as possible. Awesome time to bond and just enjoy each others company.

I bank fish, and it's an adventure, trekking through the terrain, casting around trees, watching for snakes, and trying to cover as much water as possible.

Thank you!

I needed to watch this vid :D ... my Pops passed last year so this really got me to remember lots of great times !! Those times you never forget at all.

First video of I've seen of yours. Man I love the style bro, great work!!

You are so blessed to be able to Fish the Ponds and teach Little Man all you know. Keep it my friend Semper Fidelis

Awesome video, thanks sir 💯

Thank you.

This is why I love your channel the positivity and great information and sense I been watching iv cought more fish so thank you

Yes, Yes and Yes Sir! I 2nd all of that J. Johnson!! It took me 40 years to think about picking up a little Jon Boat and it IS like a whole new world opened up in the reservoir I have been fishing for 25 years. But there is nothing better than a few minutes after work to throw a few while the sun goes down. FISHING THERAPY! B. Lat, Thanks for sharing all the good stuff and dropping the knowledge on us up in here! Lol.

Yes, right now I’m watching you fish at a pond. I enjoy the peace and quiet when I’m fishing I don’t do as well as you do but I still enjoy pond fishing.

Thank you so much!!!!!! The best video

Great video bro!! It’s good to see little man wanting to hold the fish now.. GOD bless you and the family!!

I really enjoyed this video....thank you

Bro....that was an awesome video. Well rounded.

“You don’t need a boat to catch fish Cuz!”

Love your channel and bank fishing. Just ordered some swagger. Keep posting great content B Lat.

Awesome video B-Lat!!!! Keep Grinding!!!! 👍🏾✌🏾

Man that was a awesome pond! I love catching them on top water.

This is one of my favorite videos you've done. Just fishin' with the real emotions we alll go through. How do you get the kids past the "this is boring" thought process? I took my boy once before I was really into it and we got a few bites but no fish. 3 years later and I feel like if I could get him to go again now that I can always get on small mouths he'd feel it, but he doesn't wanna go.

My man said put your own fish in the box!😂

Awesome

Loyal to the soil brings a lot of excitement for the unknown when walking lol.

Brooks!!! the next B. Lat Pro Fisherman of the family. maybe the rain killed his joy. Great vid as always

He said nope!!! 😂😂😂😂

Blat always get ya pumped to get out there and get at it... Man I need a teacher like Blat to teach me how to read water....

Wow! Brooks is holding the fish now! So cool!

YESSIIRRR LOOK AT LIL MAN HOLD THAT FISH💪🏽💪🏽 no more lil boy status, hes a man now😂💯

Man I love my kayak but ain't nothing like beating them banks. I just ordered 5 packs of SMH worms and 3 packs of SMH jig heads I found me a new little pond full of grass on the bottom and they killing the worm. Great content brother as always keep the bangers coming 🇺🇸 👊🏻 👍🏻 💯 🎣

The bank is where it all started so much fun

"Never feels good to loose one" no... it just hurts more from the bank... 😔💀

@Brian Latimer you should put together a Bank Fishing kit for all of us guys to get off your website

We saw it move too. 😂 5 lbs. That was pretty cool. We also saw it jump baby. I enjoyed the video. Thumbs up. 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦🙌

Damn from seeing Brooks shy of holding a fish to asking to hold it ❤ man I love fishin

With a title like that it's an instant like for me.

He was proud of that 2lbs crappie

Still Bank fish when I'm lazy and I don't want to take the the kayak but it's a lot harder bank at least to me God bless be safe keep fishing

I've never seen a fish caught that wasn't hooked lol. That was crazy

Do not get on my boat if you’re emotionally unstable 😂😂

Love that bond y'all have man. Great Cinematic videos man. I wanna ask if you are related to Lewis Howard Latimer by any chance?

Great video. Keep em coming. What kinda shorts are those

Epic video 🔥

Brother, you are awesome! I can't wait to have kids and teach them to fish haha

Farm pond fishing is my favorite they usually got some donkeys

❤️

Blat that shirt is FIRE

This makes me wanna take my son fishing but it’s like 20 degrees here so I’m thinking going to have to wait a month or two before he is willing

I’m from Louisiana baby. It’s sac-a-lait!

I'm sitting up here in Chicagoland in Jan and this dude is down in SC in SHORTS?!?!?! 😭

Seems like you have more fun Bank fishing than when you’re on a boat

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Nice video ..only wish lil buddy had a hat ..rainproof and maybe a lil rain jacket 💯

@Brian Latimer what's your top lures for bank fishing honestly

Dont Hook Me 🤣🤣🤣🤣 my son walks with his pole with no remorse i am surprised he hasn't snapped it yet.

Poppy McPopface caught Toady McToadface :D

If I come to your side of the town where are some good bank fishing spots?? I’m coming from California.. also do you do any fly fishing?

Bank is just about all I do…..but…HAVE an inflatable pontoon now! Hey what rod is that?

How do you like that little combo your boy has? Got for my daughter but we haven't used it yet. Was worried cause the line runs on the inside.

What pole is his son using? I need to upgrade my daughters setup.

Them kicks though!!! Are those actual “fishing” shoes/boots???

01/ 11/2024hey Brain two questions 1 is i was just on your site to buy your frogs you designed and see them on there. did you stop making them? 2nd question are you still doing your bank tournaments for us bank fisherman this year or no!?

This is better than silver and gold!

Majority of fishing is from the bank. 🎣

Epic slow motion miss😂

I bank fish almost every day

Mr lat let's go out on Lanier I'm a artist in Georgia and would love to get on some big spots with you

Aren’t crappies and bass in a pond together a no go

It pains me to admit this but.... I've never had a topwater bite before 😓🤫. I've been trying for 2 years now and nothing. It's like the bass know what I'm up to. Lol. ✌🏾

you should've called it... catching a bass with no hooks... hahhaahha... sick!!!

Your little boy don’t play he is a serious fishermen 😂

Without a boat I just wet wade or float the river and hang out with the wild horses and the rattlesnakes.

B. Lat, I see you and your son out in shorts. Is this a winter day or a fall day at the pond. Would you fish a topwater popper in January?
