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
HEY SCOTT!!!! THAT ROD DID NOT MOVE!!! WHEN YOU SET THE HOOK!!!!! WHAT A FREAKING MAC TRUCK THAT WAS!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! THAT BOAT IS YOUR LUCKY BOAT FOR SURE!!!!! I WAS SCREAMING HERE WHEN YOU PICKED IT OUT OF THE WATER!!!
Scott I’m so pumped for this upcoming season. You seem to have a fire in your belly and a little extra motivation which I love to see. 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
You know it’s a big un when your first reaction is she’s wrapped up, that girl was kicking up some WAKE! That was a boss move holding her up for the “spectators” to see too 😂. Can’t wait to follow you this season!
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!
Ive got a trip for me and my son booked with Roland Martin guide service on the 26th. It's a dream to fish on Okeechobee. This video just got me fired up even more.
People ask me all the time why I love to bass fish, we'll watch is video and just look how excited Scott is when he catches that big fish.! 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. Semper Fi from an old Marine!
one thing i love is that even when you deal with sponsored videos you still say if something will or won't work on any given lake you are on. Great video man!
Your videos make me want to buy a boat. I have 2 young boys and they love to bank fish. I hope they would enjoy boat fishing as much as I enjoy watching your videos. This is pure motivation! You’re the king Scott! Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Mr Martin I truly think this monster fish will really bring you a great 2022! 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!!!
I love how genuine you get with your excitement towards the sport. These "spur-of-the-moment" videos are my favorite. You show your trueness and I dig it!
Bro my son got the Mr tackle box. Now it’s Xmas all year he’s killing the fish and trying lures out of his comfort zone catching good fish. Thanks for the vid it’s good to see you using and being successful with sponsors gear 👍🏻
Well sir I guess the new color scheme for the new boat is keeping her the same color wrap and do some ghost style with bright outline colors for the lettering and yes your headed down the path to that blue trophy let’s go Scott and the SMC team
Haha so awesome. Enjoyed the video and the attitude. Such an awesome feeling when you catch a huge one. When I do no one’s around for me to share in the moment with. Always end up taking pics and sending to people.
The boat has officially been christened a big bass boat. The 2022 season is gonna be 🔥 for you and St. John's is gonna be a great start! Looking forward to seeing you slay this year.
Great bass Scott! Sitting here in single digit degree temps,Temps, the Ozarks, swapping out my treble hooks on my crankbaits,dreaming of fishing with you & your Dad,down there! Good luck on upcoming tournaments! God bless!
Coming to Okeechobee Saturday for a guided trip through Roland Martin Marina! I can't wait and I am excited to try to catch a biggun! Great content Scott! Keep it up.
Nice! I was thinking "he should cut the tail", but of course you knew. I remember seeing a Florida Sportsman article way back in the the titled "speed wormin". I sure learned a lot from that mag over the years!
I love how you just love catching fish, Scott. Like yeah you flipped out over the big one, but you were so stoked on the others too. I feel the same way about catching anything man. That said, very nice bass on the flipping rig. I'll have to give that bead idea a shot!
Any chance of getting you doing some 360 VR videos. Be awesome to be on the boat looking around and learning from one of the best. Great seeing you continue to keep your faith front and center along with aligning to manufacturers with the same mind set.
Awesome catch but on your first fish catch you can see one break water when your fishing off to the right and the you turn and catch him that’s awesome.
i literally love that you don’t JUST fish you also teach all of your subscribers how and why you use the baits you do and fish them the way you do it helps so much and i love that this is the first video i’ve actually committed to watching from your channel and i immediately subscribed because you helped me alot
Your putting me in fishing depression! Washington state we still catch them but in 40-60ft not 2ft! Love your channel man tight lines to you this year. Kick some Bass
Just went yesterday for the first time and it was a tough day!!! Only caught 2, one myself and my dad caught one. Both on crankbaits. Heard them hitting allllll around us but couldn't get em.
Every time about this time of year, I can always count on the Scott Martin channel to get me back in the mood for bass fishing by spring.
Yeah, unfortunately up here in Idaho we have to wait a month or two longer than when smc starts posting these good early season videos.
I agree man. All my water is iced over where I live. I have been musky fishing at some local dams but that cold will get to ya
@@bfair3928 we got out trolling for trout on Christmas day in a snow storm. My wife thinks we are crazy but the tug is the drug for me.
I don’t envy any of you guys. Living in Tennessee, we can still fish year round.
@@DannyBTalks its rough sometimes but we have these Elk here that'd blow your mind. So it kinda makes up for it.

That was Fun, it was like it was your first DD, but probably a few 100. You totally spazzed out!
Man it’s only a dream to be able to fish with someone like you brother!!

Awesome man! Where can I buy a Yamaha hat like the one you wore in this video? Hat is sick. Appreciate the content as always!
I love how genuine you get with your excitement towards the sport. These "spur-of-the-moment" videos are my favorite. You show your trueness and I dig it!
I'm in Lake Wale,s area right now and Lake Roselee and Bucket lake are doing awesome !
Every time you’re on okeechobee and pick up a swimjig. I pray for McCoy’s nuggets.
Everyone’s first bass of the year is their biggest of the year
Scott, Matt,Scott you guys go, dad is gone, but watching you make me go back to the pond to fish.
That's exactly why I never carry a scale. No one can dispute your expert word. Nice bass . Keep them coming.
Love this style of video. Quiet peaceful evening fishing. Great fish!
I love evening, all the guys have gone in and you get spots to yourself
I can always count on Scott to brighten up my day!!!! Always enjoy your videos.
Dad and I will be down at the end of February! Looking forward to another stay at Roland Martins and enjoying some wings at the Tiki!
Scott you gave me the BASS FEVER!!
Bro my son got the Mr tackle box. Now it’s Xmas all year he’s killing the fish and trying lures out of his comfort zone catching good fish. Thanks for the vid it’s good to see you using and being successful with sponsors gear 👍🏻

had a tough day today and this cheered me up thinking about flipping some bushes 🙏🏽 thanks scott!
Haha so awesome. Enjoyed the video and the attitude.
Such an awesome feeling when you catch a huge one. When I do no one’s around for me to share in the moment with. Always end up taking pics and sending to people.
MAN!!!! It’s going to be a good year for ya Scott! May you and your family have a wonderfully blessed year!
You are right okeechobee is on fire right now. Had some good sessions a couple weeks ago near Buckhead Ridge.
The boat has officially been christened a big bass boat. The 2022 season is gonna be 🔥 for you and St. John's is gonna be a great start! Looking forward to seeing you slay this year.
It pretty awesome to see a pro who has caught a lot of big bass in their career get excited over catching a 10lber. Good luck this season!
Def over 9. Nice bass for sure. Love pitchin on Okeechobee. By far some of the best fun ever. Thanks Scott.
Great bass Scott! Sitting here in single digit degree temps,Temps, the Ozarks, swapping out my treble hooks on my crankbaits,dreaming of fishing with you & your Dad,down there! Good luck on upcoming tournaments! God bless!

Coming to Okeechobee Saturday for a guided trip through Roland Martin Marina! I can't wait and I am excited to try to catch a biggun! Great content Scott! Keep it up.
I went on one last year and had a blast!
I always watch these from our ice house while we are between the prime times. Dreaming about MN summers. Thanks Scott!
23:00 has to be the most clean hookset ive ever seen in my life
Nice! I was thinking "he should cut the tail", but of course you knew. I remember seeing a Florida Sportsman article way back in the the titled "speed wormin". I sure learned a lot from that mag over the years!
Awesome job Scott Martin congratulations on your PB.🎣🏆💰👍🎉🎊👏
So awesome and love the reaction, "Duuuuuuudddeee!!!"

Scott- “this is going to be a good boat” lmao 😂 I laughed way to hard at that
Maybe….? You just make an SMC to GIVE away one of the boats to one of your fans? Hmmm? That sounds like a great idea/challenge, Scott! What’dya say?
Xzone baits are 🔥🔥🔥 The floating claws in the MB and Adrenaline Craws are killler!🤘
I cannot wait for the new season. Will watch every dam episode. Just awesome

I can only wish to catch something like that one day good job señor
That Metanium reel looks like it’s caught a couple, best reels out IMO, the 2020 mgl model is awesome

Awesome catch but on your first fish catch you can see one break water when your fishing off to the right and the you turn and catch him that’s awesome.
Heck yeah! Frikin giant!👏👏
Couldn’t help myself but skip to see that monster! That’s a big girl for sure! Keep up the great vids Scott🙌🎣
What do you think she goes?
@@ScottMartinChallenge really hard to say, but if I had to put a realistic guess I would say 8 1/2 to 9. Was definitely a monster!
Big bass on little bait great job Scott
