    Watching your videos helps me cope alot my son absolutely loved you and your dad and now I know why. On September 8th my life was changed forever and I lost my fishing partner,best friend,and my son. All the same person. Fishing hasn't been the same every since. As much as I wish I could be honored enough to buy your boat I can't afford it not even a little bit. But if you wouldn't mind I would appreciate any prayers yall can give me. I have still got my little aluminum boat and every time I go on the lake I see so much stuff that bring back memories of fishing with him. He wouldn't have cared what kind of boat he had as Kong as it would half float he would get it to work. I know that if he seen this video he would have sold his kidneys legs,fingers,and what ever else it would take to get either one of those boats. Just know he's in heaven watching and liking and turning on notifications

I want to see you win the Classic for Pops and go on to win your first blue trophy this season. I totally believe you can do it. Stay hungry. Can’t wait to follow along. God bless you

    I love it that Scott shows you exactly where the fish was. It’s impossible to see where the bait lands the way these are filmed. So, he makes it so clear. Living in Florida, I’ve learned the exact same thing….getting a bite in muddy water is difficult seemingly anywhere in Florida. There’s some nuance there though. What exactly is “clear”. Clear by Florida’s standards doesn’t always mean being able ot see 5’-10’ below the surface. Sometimes it means the clearest spot that particular lake has to offer. But, trying to find the clear water in an otherwise muddy lake (i.e. Apopa, Harris, etc..) is also very hard to find. You rarely see the Martin’s fishing any other body of water besides Okeechobee. I’ll be fishing that lake for the first time this winter….but, hope to find some decent ground relatively quickly.

    I had my mom, best friend and uncle all watching Basstrak and the leaderboard for you last weekend. I was driving from Pickwick to Guntersville to pick up my new boat and had to pay attention to the road. Could not WAIT to see the first video. I fish HC at least once a year and stay at an at AirBB for a couple of weeks. Headed down in 10 days... a little later this year. Hope the fish's sore mouths are healing! I'm laid over in Singapore in hotel lockdown and this video is exactly what I needed to pass the time. Can't wait to get stateside on Friday!

And think about how many big bass he's caught in his life and still gets that excited to catch a big one. Enough said! Thanks for another great video and several great tips.

    No power poles, boats not even rigged or ready and to top it off a MTB box 10 lb big O' special to break it in.
    If you go out and fish and start the tournament season just remember this day and after the season make sure to re visit this episode to conclude the season to where it all started!!!
