Scott, i just wanna say thank you for keeping this sport alive. The first angler i ever watched as a very little kid was your father. still have his autograph in a case from when i was 5 from a topeka kansas boat show. i am now 16 and i enjoy all of the trades of fishing. My dad has taught me everything he knows when it comes to fishing since he used to fish tournaments and had a lot of success. Thank you again for EVERYTHING.

Hey Scott first wanted to say thanks for taking the time to put these vids up on youtube, it really helps fisherman like me. I do have a couple questions for you though, that if you get the chance I would love to hear your opinion on. I have been having trouble with spooking off fish here in our shallow Texas waters, if you pull up to a bed with a fish on it and see the fish get spooked off, do you immediately pass that bed and come back to it later, or will you go ahead and set up on the bed and wait for the fish to come back? Also I am about to go ahead and purchase a couple shallow water anchors, I was wondering on your opinion of talon vs. power pole considering noise when putting them down. Also do you recommend the 12 ft. power pole? I figure it would help alot with some deeper water but not sure if they shake around alot while running because there so big and also if they are louder than the 8-10 foot models. I just haven't seen any bass boats with the big 12 foot poles. Thanks again for the video. Happy Fishing!

Cool vid and all, but which vid is the one previewed at the end where something literally EXPLODES underwater???

[ericgray]

when did craws become so popular for bed fish

[ChunkyKongGaming]

Can someone explain to me why he would want to use a heavy power rod here? There doesn't look to be any cover, so why wouldn't he keep it with a more medium heavy rod?

When I was a kid (60s) old guys told me all the time...'can't sight fish bass.' 'Sight fishing is a waste of time.' I never listened.

I bet he won't reply to this since this video is so old

[drewmanfishing]

He is a good fisherman but, his voice is annoying
