    Just wanted to say I first watched you over a year ago when i was heading down to your area to fish. Even bought some bait from hooked up. Since then, my girlfriend and i watch you regularly because you've become the best channel there is when it comes to fishing videos balanced with advice, gear, cooking, and all kinds of species. Keep up the great work!

    I know you have a larger boat now, but what drew me to your video channel was your focus on the fish, your explanation of your rigs and why you use them is a certain area/time. I like that the gear you use is not out of reach for most people. 17 ft. w/90 horse, fuel efficient, nothing just for show. quality reels and rods you use.(Always smart to invest in good gear) and you thank the lord for all he does for us. I don't do that as often as I should, you remind me to do so more often, so thanks. Keep following your passion. It's much better than you think. (I like your Mom too, Nice lady.)

    Hey Brother. Thankyou for your service first off. Secondly thankyou for this awesome channel. It's easy to see that you are an upstanding person. Me and my son's watch religiously waiting for your next video. They are 13 and 11 and you sir are their hero. I'm glad they chose you to idolize instead of all the other things they could have this day in age. Thankyou for your example. We live over on Dauphin island but my folks live in Orange Beach. We would love to get up sometime for a handshake. They always look for you anytime we are out fishing that area. Thanks again man and good fishing.

    Dude honestly just watching you outmuscle and beat that monster of a snapper was so impressive!! It's really awesome to discover someone as passionate/charismatic and entertaining as you who's at the same time not incredibly big yet (certainly will be) but produces high quality and production value content. Watching your unfiltered struggle to fight that fish, and seeing your genuine reaction and joy when you realized it was a PR, amazing. I bet you'll remember that fish for years to come, and good thing you caught everything on camera and made a dope vid out of it :)))

    Hey I used to vacation with my fam down at Gulf Shores all through my childhood in the 80's, and watching your channel has brought back some great memories. We used to stay at the State Park but some years we rented condos and even stayed at the old Gulf Shores Motel once, with the massive rooms. I haven't fished since around 2002 but it's very relaxing to watch, and I like all the awesome nature stuff too. Thanks for being a top notch steward of the environment and setting good examples for people to follow!
