Thank God for strong Wives. Thank God we listen. Praying for you and your son and family. Hope to see you up at your grandparent soon. You are good man.
Hey brother. Nobody is perfect at all. It takes a man to come out and admit it and turn your life around. Great testimony homey.
Lots of respect for you Caleb for being so honest and open. You may have saved someone’s life... you never know. See you out on the water!
I can relate. I lost my 22 year old son in Oct. 2019. He was my heart and I will never get over it. I get strength from God first,, thats the only way I can get through some days. Grief a part of my life now and forever and I have to deal with it every day. Your exactly right you have to strive to be the best you. You have to learn to put your feelings first and choose happiness over sadness. Thank you for your honesty cause alot of people are going through alot of hardships right now. You stay strong and put it all on God's shoulders. And remember, never lose site of God's blessings in our lives. Sometimes they are as big as the world, sometimes we really have to search to see them but I promise they are there. Look forward, deal with the now, and don't worry about what you can't control. Can't wait to see you back on You Tube catching some of those bigguns!!!!
More fishing helps my blues. Glad son is doing better!
I love you dude, thank you for being a mentor for me and now my family.
Hey bud you can only do what you can, Just do your best and don't Quit. Deal with yourself and your family first. I have been going through something similar for about 4 years, back in 2014 I started a complete transformation it took me about 3 years to go from 459 pounds to 340 pounds. In 2016 the lost of my father and a chain of events totally derailed me completely. I am glad that you are on a positive path now, we're all thrown curve balls in life but we have to stay strong and not lose focus and don't quit. Glad to see you back posting. Thanks for all the video's I really enjoy them.
You are Courageous; and stronger than you think. GOD BLESS u and your family
You're wise beyond your years. I am almost 70, I see it in you. We're all social creatures. Covid stopped us from attending church this year and that was my social environment ( a good one too), hang in there brother.
Thank you brother I believe that is going to help alot of people out
Great post man. It took me falling flat on my face and almost losing my family before I realized something had to change. My pride and thinking I can handle anything almost ruined my life. Looking back I thinks it’s the Lord’s way of breaking us down so we can submit more to Him and have a better relationship with him. I thank God and my wife so much for not giving up on me. Hang in there brother, we will be here whenever you are ready to get back at the videos. Also, we are always here if you need to talk. God bless.
Man I feel ya. I turned to alcohol for a long time to deal with Depression. Fishing really helps and seeking medical help. You gotta help yourself for your kids. Its a hard battle and it changes constantly. Its good to see ya posting tanks again.
Dang this is the Best youtube post i have ever seen, thank you so much for sharing.
we can't help one another if we don't know
Yes Sir May God hold you and your family in his grace.
I do face the same battle with depression as well.
I am local to lake Chickamuaga and would love to spend some time with you in support of your battles
we will continue to pray for you and your family..
Depression is a disease a chimical imbalance that is treatable just like anything else
Please mem take care of your self there is no shame in asking for help
you can always contact me lol
I love you, Caleb! You call me anytime you wanna hang out! Your family has always been there for Dad and I, and I will always be there for you! You are my family, and your mom and dad helped raise me too. Y’all committed to helping us, and we trusted y’all to continue to provide that help. NOT ONCE did y’all let us down. We won’t let y’all down. Like I said if you ever need ANYTHING, call or text me anytime! I love you man, always will! #family
Bro take care and find your peace man. You ever need to bs i'm here.
Thanks my dude
Outstanding video, one of the hardest things to do as a man is to put yourself out there, we don't want people to think we are vulnerable so we hide our feelings , I've struggled with depression my entire life , i never wanted my wife, children and friends to think I was weak , letting go of that mentality was hard and it took a long time, glad to see you are doing so at a much younger age , looking forward to your videos , you were the first youtuber I started watching , tight lines brother
Sorry to hear about your lost friends brother. I have almost the exact same story dealing with the depression and anxiety. Just powered through for almost 6 years of serious depression and suicidal thoughts until one day I hit a breaking point and decided to try and get help. Got on a low dose SSRI and it completely snapped me out of it within a couple weeks and I was kicking myself for not doing sooner. Just crazy to think I endured it for so long without trying to get help. Glad to hear you are on the other side of it now as well and thanks for sharing man. It can definitely help for people to hear this kind of message if they are struggling with a similar problem. 🙏
Stubborn sometimes is not a good thing 😂. I am the same way
God bless you.. Tight lines my friend.
God bless you and keep your head up , I got respect for you putting yourself out there hopefully like you said will encourage others to get help definitely been a rough year
Great video. Asking for help is the biggest step. Thank you for your honesty. Tight lines brother!
I've been following you for a few years now and this is probably the best video you've put out, certainly the most important anyways. While I don't personally struggle with depression, my wife & others I know do or have in the past. It's definitely a real issue and certainly not something that's easy for anyone to talk about; particularly for guys. However, confronting it head on & being willing to talk about it, along with a strong faith, family, and good friends seems is key. Good luck & God bless you!
I pray your son is healthy and I’m very sorry for the losses in your life. I’m glad your doing better! Hopefully 2021 will be a lot better. I’ve had several family members and a friend take their own lives. It can be very difficult . Looking forward to seeing some monster fish catches and I will be coming to Chick in April.
Thank-you for this video. A lot of folks hold it in until it's too late, its not easy but again thanks for the video and when you feel the need to step back do it ,then come back as you did and regroup. I've learned to do that more and more.
What a loss you've suffered! You are incredibly brave opening up and sharing your story, setting an example of what it really means to be human. Men deserve to be vulnerable and safe. 💜
Much respect! Praying for you and your family.
Best video I’ve watched in a long time. Honesty like this is important and will help more people than u can imagine. This has been a rough go and this relatable message is appreciated.
A great message. I dealt with depression for most of my like. It was consuming. Like became a serious issue. I always just tried to do what you did. Tuff through it it’ll pass. After 30 years of dealing with it and anxiety I was breaking down mentally and didn’t even know why. All I knew was how I felt. My wife after begging me to go see the doctor saved me. If it wasn’t for her I’d would have never went. Your exactly right. My doctor knew exactly what I’d been dealing with. Gave me a lite medication that has no side effects and I feel nothing from the medication other than I don’t get really far down anymore. If anyone is dealing with anxiety or depression it’s a chemical in balance in your brain that’s very treatable but ya can’t get treated if your stubborn like I was for 30 plus years.
Hey Caleb it’s great to see you again. I think you making this video and reaching out to people is awesome. There is no doubt the times are tough for so many. There is also no doubt that many of us guys definitely have a John Wayne complex. I hope those that need to hear this Do. I don’t care what Alex Rudd says about you you’re a good man. LLOL. I’m glad to hear that you did the right thing and reached out for help and you and your family are doing well. I hope this weekend finds you on the water slaying Giants. Tight lines
Wow. Powerful message there. Thank you!
amen brother. proud of you.
Good for you brother! Well done, continue down that path and dont take a turn. Good people are tough to find now a days, the world needs you running around. Love you videos man, medically retired from the Army so i get it, i can relate. I live in Knoxville and i use fishing to cope so i watch your videos to try and figure what the heck im doing wrong lol. I hit chick pretty often and usually try to figure out where you fish so i can try to get better. Chin up boss, you gotta lotta life left to enjoy.
What you talked about is why I pretty much ignored Covid as much as I could. Living is a lot more important than lock downs. Considering 99% of people survive Covid. I took vitamins and I lived life the best as I could.
We love you brother we all go through stuff in life I can say for myself i have been in your shoes and had to seek help keep your head up and keep moving forward in a positive way love ya bro can't wait for the new videos
Stay strong man and know you helped a lot of people thru your videos. I hope to see you back here soon. Prayers for you and keep your faith. Miss you a lot.
I feel ya buddy, glad to see you’re doing better. It’s been a very very tough year and half for everyone!
Caleb I'm glad to see you are back. I have followed you and the family for a while and the transformation with your little guy is amazing! I hope and pray 2021 is better for you and your family. Tell the boss lady she needs to keep us updated on the homesteading when spring gets here.
Great testimony! God bless you and all of those who are struggling.
Men have that tendency, tough, hide all those issues on the inside. Praying for you & your family. God has a plan for us, even if it is just in our everyday lives!
Great post brother, Glad your on the mend. Been following you for long time and knew you had something going. Thanks for posting.
Good stuff brother...real stuff....gotta put that trust in good people and the Lord above! If nobody around ya listens He always will. I agree ya gotta have good people to talk to and be real about issues you're havin, EVERYBODY needs help at some point and we should all strive to help all we can!
Glad to hear your doing better my man. Look forward to seeing more content.
Glad to hear you're doing better and sure have missed your videos hopefully you have now found what you need to help yourself get back where you were I know it can happen cuz I have a 40 year old son who just completed 6 years sobriety and a great job now and I hope everything works out for you. Continue to look to the Lord for your answers and he'll always show you the way
Much respect for posting this. I know I can relate and sure many more can.
Man, this hit me in the feels. I found your channel and subscribed several months ago because I live 5 miles from Lake Chicamauga. I was disappointed that you weren't posting new videos as I'm just really getting into Bass fishing and I wanted to learn from someone on my home lake. In May of 2019 I lost my home to a house fire and the rebuild process was slow. I felt like I had to stay strong for my family, but I too turned to drinking to self-medicate. So this video really hit home. Just know I am praying for you and your family. And if you are interested in a loving church home that will walk with you through things like this, Christway community church in Ooltewah is amazing. My name is Robb and I work the soundboard in the back every other week. Come up and say Hi.
Thanks for using your platform as an inspiration
Thanks pal, keep your eyes on Jesus for He is always there to never leave you!
Great stuff brother prayers
brother there's a lot of things I could say, but I'm not going to because I think everybody tries to find the perfect words to say to someone when they see someone else struggling or hurting, but they're never are any perfect words. as someone who just sought help for the first time in MY life for my mental state two weeks ago, I can relate a lot to what you're saying! I've been needing to see someone for a long time for a lot of reasons, but if for nothing else, just to sit in front of a stranger and let things out because I know that they could never be repeated and I knew that person couldn't post any judgement on me because they don't know me personally.. and I could just get everything off my chest and off my shoulders, things I've wanted to say, feelings that I've felt, feelings that I've held back, all kinds of things! I finally hit my point too where I needed to see someone and I finally saw someone two weeks ago.. I'm telling you right now I walked out of that office feeling like a different person just because I let a lot of it OUT... did it fix everything? absolutely not! did it make me a different person? yes and no! Did it help? ABSOLUTELY!! will I continue to do it? ABSOLUTELY!!! And to anyone else who sees this, there is no shame whatsoever in saying, "you know what, I need a break.".. you can only help so many people before you start to run thin, you got to be able to take care of yourself before you can take care of anyone else! Not just physically, but emotionally and mentally too.. There's no problem or nothing wrong with needing someone to talk to no matter what's going on in your life!!! I commend you for making this video though, I know that couldn't have been easy because once you put something on the Internet it's on there forever.. and that's a very personal thing to put out there.. nothing but respect for you for doing it! I just wanted you to know that you're not alone and this year is a new year!! just a chance to get back to our OLD SELVES but NOT our OLD WAYS!!! I wish the best for you my friend, tight lines always and if I find myself in Tennessee I promise I'll hit you up and try to find a body of water to fish.. I live in Alabama, My cousins n I try to come to Chick once or twice a year, if we make our first annual trip in the next month or two I'll hit you up on Instagram an see if you're available to come lean on a few with us! We usually take two boats so there's plenty room. Tight lines always good vibes!!
I got a few years on you yet you constantly surprise me with you old soul and wisdom.
Glad you got some help for your issues and sorry to hear about your loses.
Let’s get that red eye shad busting some bass !
This hits home for me. I hit a patch last year after I lost my Mom. A few months earlier my wife had went through a cancer scare. I went through a period when I just didn't want to fish or do anything for a mental release. My issues are small compared to what you went through. I understand you though. I am finally back on the water some and excited about fishing and video making again. Thanks for your testimony and best of luck to you.
Great video and hang in there God has a plan for us all.
I feel ya brother. I've always had depression issues for as long as I can remember. Had substance and alcohol abuse problems my entire adult life till about 7 years ago. I Put down the drugs for a good job. I put down the alcohol for my lady 3 years later. Starting some medication has turned my life around at 37 years old. Hang in there bud 🙏
Glad you are doing better!
Glad your feeling like yourself again man. I was feeling pretty shitty for a while last year too. Doing good now though, it's nice to see that I wasn't the only one feeling like that. Major props for having the courage to post this. Looking forward to some more great videos. I'm coming down to fish the college FLW tournament on Chick on March 30-31 so I'll be watching the channel for some tips!
Heck yeah man hope it is like last year at that time. I was smashing them
Much respect to you and thanks too, for sharing this with everyone. It takes a strong man to say and admit he is just human too. I hope everyone pays attention to this and it can help someone one. Mental and emotional health, affect not just the person who has it, but the whole family and their friends. I have seen more men this past year come to terms with that and get help and , on the flip side, I also have a friend who ended his life because he couldn't cope. I have always admired and respected you and Becka for your wisdom and how you are witb your family and life. I'm glad this didn't break you. Thank you again, so much, for sharing your n heart and helping others. You are a blessing in many people's lives.
Praying for you and your family.
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 now that, is being strong.
one love 🤍🤍🤍
Bro nobody is perfect we all fight demons ain't no doubt, I'll be 40 in March and I went through some hard times in my early 20's got into some crap I ain't proud of but my wife and especially 2 kids saved me.. and medication still keeps me flying rite .. and i will admit it just for the simple fact of being truthful with myself..
I love you brother! I’m here for you my dude. Can’t wait for some epic trips together this year #PourMeSmashfest
Hahah heck yes brother. Love you guys
Mad respect for you man. If you ever need a fishing buddy holler.
Amen 🙏
I been praying for you for the past 6 months. He is a faithful God. Proud of you.
Good luck
Been missing the videos bro!!
The timing on this video was perfect it’s funny how god knows us and each of our little Kwirks and stuff and puts the right people in the right places perfectly so that it benefits everyone involved in a different but individually perfect way if that makes sense lol. I know I said perfect a lot there but it’s true. Well it’s true if we are paying attention to gods plan for our lives and can see the little things he does for us everyday.
Respect.
100% brother
First of all brother welcome back!!! Missed seeing your videos be. It’s good to see you post and good to see you Fishin as well. I actually just drove down to Crossville TN yesterday to fish lake chikamauga and watts bar I have to drive 1.5 hrs to chickamauga but I got the condo for 300 bucks for the week through my timeshare so I will drive for that. Any tips you could give me as to where to try to fish it’s my first time ever fishing there and I’m by myself also where is a good boat ramp this time of year that’s still in deep enough water to launch? Any help would greatly appreciated man
Dayton boat dock, chester frost, Blythe's ferry still have water on them... Wolfever should as well. There are some fish schooling in creeks on the mid and low ends of the lake. They seem to be a little deeper...12 to 20 ft... Some fish on main lake flats as well in the 4 to 8... Just gotta read where the current and wind is pushing the bait. Also, there are fish on the main river channel usually on swings and bends I sit deep and drift then cast shallow... Rigs, swimbaits, traps, blade baits, etc have been producing
Thank you so much for the info brother I will let you know how I do. Really appreciate it
If a big ol 260 lb bearded man gives you a hug from out of the blue don't punch him it might be me.
Hahahaha
Hey man I want to apologize for things I said on here being a asshole , you didn’t deserve that & god bless your son I hope he gets better , my good friends boy has similar issues.
