Yeah Brian, I'm totaly with you, I kept sayin' stay shallow,stay shallow, well, next time, you know what not to fall for. a lot of fish though, that was cool to see, you'll get em next time BLat !
I’ve started fishing kayak tournaments this year & I really appreciated following you through this tournament & hearing your thought processes. Good reminder…adversity is dope. Thanks as always, B Lat!
Brian you are the man..... you are an amazing man an amazing fisherman and a absolutely the most AMAZING father!! I hope some day you guys come back to California. so I can watch you in person!!
Keep it up B. 💯 been a fan since day one. I miss the smaller subscriber days...but happy you blew up after Lake Seminole 2019 success. I remember i called in to work to watch that win.
I live at Rayburn and there's so many brush piles sank daily in that depths (crappie fisherman) they move from one pile to the next, hundreds of piles, and that's why the bass and catfish stay there, even though it seems it's open water and no cover lol. Also some of the biggest I've caught have been in the creek mouths where there's thick grass or the flooded trees, monsters in those trees 😉 hope this may help next time
Great video B Lat! Life long fisherman here but new to bass tournaments last year and it is very humbling lol absolutely love it though and can’t wait for this season. Got that dog in us, let’s goooo!!!
BLat...thank you so much for keeping your videos on the real! I crappie fish and the forward-facing sonar is what I call "video fishing"...that ain't me! My younger brother is a pro at using Live Scope...it just ain't me. I'll keep you and the family in prayer. Blessings...
Man. Just found your channel. I'm not a big fisherman, but I do love to bass fish and pan fish. Anyway, I love your videos already, but I can't tell you how to fish, but I've got to show you how to wind up your extension cords bud lol. Holy cow, the tangle in your yellow extension cord sent my OCD out the dang door, lol. Anyhow, please keep the videos coming. God bless bud.
While FF Sonar is the new hotness, I agree with trusting your instincts. Let that determination build and go sore lip'em on Hartwell for a few weeks. Good luck this season and I look forward to the next video drop.
Finally!!! A spinner bait bite!!!! I feel like thats a lost lure nowadays......nobody throws it anymore, heck these kids prob don't even know what it is!!!
You got this B-Lat! The 🔥 has been lit! This is going to be the start of a GREAT SEASON for you!!! Next time Rayburn is in the schedule, don't just pre-fish it, go there a few times, experiment, explore. Get your confidence up and just fish it. YOU GOT THIS!!!👍🦾
I have seen 3-4 videos with the new falcon and I must say that is one pretty boat. I might would be interested in buying it at the end of the season. I don’t live very far away. I’m in the ATL area. FYI
B Lat I am always rooting for you and good luck on your next run....you were in my neck of the woods...wish I knew that might would have came out to meet you.
I missed seeing you by 20 minutes at the fishing show in Toronto You were on at 3pm and my son and I left at 2:30 pm . Had to pick up my grandson at school
What brand and model is the black spinning reel you are using? BTW, good video. Rayburn is a local lake for me and yes, it never fails to throw you a curve ball.
It is hard to leave a spot like that but in the back of your mind you think maybe weeding through the smaller ones to get the big. Definitely a killer spot to get your limit going for next day as long as they stay put. Good luck and hopefully those fish will be there to get a quick limit.
Enjoyed another video of yours. I never get board watching you catch fish and talking about catching fish. You know you could of probably finished higher, but the big bites just didn't come your way...this time. Its time for a some family time, before heading out again. Stay positive!!!
Glad to see the full videos, hate when people break a tournament up into 7 videos😂. I get it, but dont like it. Good luck this year, hope you excel in this new tech war way of fishing. If you aint scopin yous a hopin😂😂
B-lat I need to know what mount ya have at the console.Ive got 99 Ranger.None of the mount companies will make me a duel graph mount.Yours will work on my boat perfectly!!!Plz let me know.Thank you so much.Great vid!👍🏼👍🏼
@@BrianLatimerFishing nah I was talking bout the one that was in the thumbnail but my guy at Volunteer boats of TN figured it out. Thanks for responding so quickly
Thanks so much for talking us along B lat!! I am just wondering why you weren't throwing a red square bill around those trees and the warmer water or is it to early in the year for that?
@BrianLatimerFishing yea I saw that and it was working I was just wondering about the square bill you are the pro just trying to learn good luck and keep putting out the content thanks!!
The hate for forward facing sonar is ridiculous! I mean if someone got a new Corvette and you didn't you're gonna be mad!? You haters get your money up and prepare to spend lots of time learning forward facing sonar or ZIP IT! People say oh now all the fish are gonna get caught (ridiculous) I've never thrown so many fish back before I got Livescope I can tell you that! Keep it up Lat love the content and no matter if you were catching them with a cane pole somebody mouth will be open because they're not catching anything 🤣🤣
Forward facing sonar may be the future but it makes watching fishing tournaments very boring. It feels like watching someone play a video game and not being able to see the screen.
At least they are starting to do split screens now showing what they are seeing on the screen. It’s still not the answer but it’s a little better. I’m thinking how is this different from them banning trolling way back when tournaments started. Nobody thinks about trolling for bass much now, but the reason is because it was banned in professional tournaments and lost popularity because of that. It was done and popular enough way back then though. Buck Perry basically did nothing else and was the one who basically taught everyone how to fish offshore structures for bass. Those guys were targeting the same population of fish with it then as these guys now with ffs. One major reason trolling was banned is they didn’t think it would be entertaining enough seeing guys just slowly driving around out there. And it was a logistical problem in those early years draw tournaments. Now they are pairing pros with pros again because on the trails that have co anglers because they can’t get enough people to sign up. It’s the same crap issues from 60-70 years ago all over.
It's definitely the future won't win without it period against 20 or more using it. I don't need opinions on that bc iv seen it to much. It only takes one of them to smoke their ass and it will always be more than one. Iv never had one but it's no different than sight fishing in a way if the fish doesn't see you. Agreed that angler's spend 80 percent of their day looking DOWN at it,10 percent boat ride and the rest pin pointing their cast by where they think it should land going by the screen. Yes it's incredible but on the other hand to me it would be called catching bass bc fishing ain't just jiggle stuff in there face seeing them until they bite. It's having the skill without that crap. Fishing.....
@@codyreece7871agreed. It’s an advantage but nobody will ever vbe able to just win a tourney without knowing about structure and weather. Even if you become familiar with structure and weather people like Jacob wheeler understand it 10x better which is why he has so much success. The modern household names of bass fishing aren’t winning because they have ffs, they are winning because they have proper knowledge about fish behavior, structure, weather, know about all those things better then everyone else, have much experience and wisdom. Ffs just speeds up things on the water and tells you a bit more about the water and tells you a bit more about what the fish want. I think all those household names can easily read the fish masterfully without the ffs but it certainly speeds things up. Nobody will come into an mlf or bassist’s tourney and win because they just had ffs, they will win due to all the things I listed which is what makes the greats stick out and be that much better. Not to say everyone else is bad.
I don't like the Zman elaztech stuff. I have a tackle addiction and I like buying tackle. For real though...the durability of them are unreal. I won't be trying to put them on a screw lock again, however. 😏
Fog delay wtf back in my day we fished tournaments from the bank up hill in fog so thick you couldnt see the water you just casted in the blind and hope to hear a splash.
Bro stop closing the hatch on the net already you lost a good fish cause you couldn't use the net due to it being closed under the hatch lol sh.t happens I guess ctfu!!! Love the videos brother keep up the great work wishing you all the best on your season brother!!!
I'll never watch until FFS is gone, wrecking the sport and a complete shit show. Take it away, and most will be fishing BFLs. You can't use a Drone when hunting, why in fishing? Decades of wisdom, useless!
@@devinwillis7787nope but taking away FFS doesn't leave the fisherman blind. They still have 2D imaging, can see cover, bluffs, points, channel breaks, etc, etc. Very poor analogy
Here’s the link to use the app I used to tell the wind direction in the video. omniafishing.onelink.me/gZRj/9p4qhk7b
I watch every video you post and I just wanna say I'm very proud of you and it would be a honor go fishing with you or record for you
And im not to Far from u
So happy to see the long videos again, hope to see more!
Glad you like them!
"its foggier than two pot head in a Kia Sorento" haha had me rollin. Thank you for the great videos and keeping it real.
Man, you are so down to earth. God bless you, and hopefully you have a great season.

Bro just keep after it! You'll have some great events this year! Thank you for the videos! May God bless everything you do!

Dangan u have 200 k subs now. Congratulations u make great videos man. Keep up the good work and win u a tournament this season. Good luck man
Lets go B. Lat! You were on the fish, just not the big ones this time! You got this next event bro! Keep your head up and fish on the line bro!
Nice work B-Lat!!!!! Keep Grinding! 👍🏾✌🏾
Your exact words to my wife and I at the sportsman show, love to see you fishing with that mentality! Good luck sir!
Love you man, hang in there, you will rise again soon!

You caught a lot of fish! Great job! Keep your head up and keep doing what you do!
Wish you the best in the next one, B lat! Keep your head up, you will get over the hump in the road!
Finally!!! A spinner bait bite!!!! I feel like thats a lost lure nowadays......nobody throws it anymore, heck these kids prob don't even know what it is!!!
2024 will be the spring of spinnerbaits. They have made a HUGE comeback over the winter. Guys like BLat at Jason Christie have helped "remind" people.
Got my Excite Bite hoodie in the mail just the other day, B.Lat, and it looks and feels phenomenal. Awesome design.
Hope you enjoy it!
good show have a great season brian gl
Great Vid, Big Homie🔥👍🏾

Great video Brian! I always learn something from your videos. If I can ask, what is the direction indicator you are using for your FFS? Thanks!
Me and my buddies came out to support and made the 41 min cut 💪🏾.
I missed seeing you by 20 minutes at the fishing show in
Toronto
You were on at 3pm and my son and I left at 2:30 pm . Had to pick up my grandson at school

B Latt is back with the longer videos. In missed it
Good luck next time Brian. I'll be saying a prayer for better fortune ahead
I love the way u hold the front of the spinning rod front cushion
Great video Brian. I’m excited to see you catch them on West Point
It is hard to leave a spot like that but in the back of your mind you think maybe weeding through the smaller ones to get the big. Definitely a killer spot to get your limit going for next day as long as they stay put. Good luck and hopefully those fish will be there to get a quick limit.
Hey now you know what you need to do for the next one. Plus your shoes were off so BLat was feelin good!
Great video. I’m excited for the next one.
I am old and old school..forward facing sonar should not be allowed in tournament fishing..just my opinion. Stay the course young man. Thank you..
That Beard is legit bro!
Keep your head up BLat!
Enjoyed another video of yours. I never get board watching you catch fish and talking about catching fish. You know you could of probably finished higher, but the big bites just didn't come your way...this time. Its time for a some family time, before heading out again. Stay positive!!!
It’s a tool to find fish and not fish dead water. To many anglers get caught up trying to make small fish bite.
That Falcon is 🔥 😍😍😍
stay strong brian we all have those days
That truck sounding ruff buddy lol. Unless that’s a diesel
Blat! Great video big dog. Yo are you going to be hosting the online tournaments this year again?
Yes I am!
HMU when you come to Seminole again, got a perfect kayak lake with giant meatheads!🎣awesome content that has taught me a lot for an old guy
hey B Lat what's your favorite type of LMB Bait for cold windy day?
Glad to see the full videos, hate when people break a tournament up into 7 videos😂. I get it, but dont like it. Good luck this year, hope you excel in this new tech war way of fishing. If you aint scopin yous a hopin😂😂
I noticed you've switched from the Tour Pro to the Ghost. Were the mounting holes the same or did you have to drill new holes?
Are you using straight braid here? Also what type of rod and reel are you using?
Hang in there Brian!! You’re an excellent fisherman!!
Just fish your strengths and God will bless you!!!
😎🌴🤙
Bad advice, he needs to adapt
That's why they call it fishing. You did good 👍
B-lat I need to know what mount ya have at the console.Ive got 99 Ranger.None of the mount companies will make me a duel graph mount.Yours will work on my boat perfectly!!!Plz let me know.Thank you so much.Great vid!👍🏼👍🏼
I don’t have a Mount on the console actually! It’s flush

You not wrapping your boat this year?
You got the right idea with the mobile home tho saves you so
Much money.
Where can I find that hoodie?🔥🔥🔥
Thanks so much for talking us along B lat!! I am just wondering why you weren't throwing a red square bill around those trees and the warmer water or is it to early in the year for that?
I was throwing a wacky rig
@BrianLatimerFishing yea I saw that and it was working I was just wondering about the square bill you are the pro just trying to learn good luck and keep putting out the content thanks!!
im going to sam rayburn this friday is there any tips for where i should fish at
Love your videos !
I’ve been watching you for a while now love the videos go to the next one and win that sucker brother
Do you think using Livescope is now necessary to being a successful tounament angler? Its beginning to feel like it is.
Your confidence in worms amazes me.
Are you not wrapping the boat this year????
“let’s not start off the season triflin”😂
Wouldn't up-sizing the bait eliminate the little fish?
C'mon Brian that net looks like it's trapped again!
I couldn't catch a fish today with live bait. Mad respect for the pros

what is the brand of trolling motor cable cover are you using and where do I get one
I like that mental sovereignty.

It's going to get to a point where everyone will wait in line for a pod of fishes.
How do you power up your camper when it’s not running?

@@jasonmausteller2488 don’t need to charge it. Everything is self supplied
Blatt, you caught a lot of fish. I mean you can't determine the size all the time. They bit and you caught him

Good luck next time. The lesson I took is that it's better to be true to yourself and loose than to try something different and have regrets

LETS FREAKIN GOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo!!!
