    Just to answer a few of the questions here:
    Glenn Lau made the precursor to Bigmouth Forever in 73. Title was Bigmouth, made entirely on & in the Silver Springs River.
    There was never a film made just for Smallmouth.
    He made a great film about Coho fishing in Lake Michigan. That was the early 70’s, before Bigmouth.
    Prior to both of them, he made at least one film while fishing for Arctic Char & other fish on his many trips to Great Bear Lodge, above the Arctic Circle.
    He also traveled a lot thru Ohio,Michigan and a few other places touring, fishing and filming as The Shakespeare Guide. He traveled checking fishing conditions etc and would do both Radio & TV spots to report his findings. He traveled in a large motor home
    towing his boat behind.
    In his earliest of days, Glenn was a hunting and fishing guide on Lake Erie. He was Named Lake Erie’s Living Legend and was the cover story of I believe, Sports Afield. If not, it was Outdoor Life.
    I hope that answers a few of your questions.

    This place looks like the Rainbow river I fished a few years ago. The water was so clear that you could see everything especially the giant bass and the schools of bass. The wouldn’t hit anything but small crappie jigs on 4 pound test line. But it was the absolute most beautiful river I have ever seen in my life. Love these old videos and wish they were more of them

    Did not know there are school bass & solitary and bass. This might be true for larger lakes and resivors.
    True good equipment, casting styles are a matter of gaining experience.
    Video suggests moon is dominant factor. No, it is just a factor.
    Old film, there is new information.

      It’s hard to find old films. And then when you do good part of the time they want to charge too much for them. But that’s the territory you get in when you’re looking for a good old documentary or a movie but I appreciate you for doing that man. Do you have a great day can’t wait to see you next video

      Try some Zoom Flukes. Buy white and green pumpkin colors and rig weightless on a EWG hook. Cast them under trees and around other overhangs that create shade. Pop your rod to make it dart and let it fall to bottom and then pop it again. You can rig a small split shot weight above the fluke to get a faster presentation. The morning hours and early afternoon is the best time to use this strategy. Hope you get on them soon!
