I was out on the river said hi to you this day. Right as you’re taking a picture of your trophy smallmouth, you can kinda see my family off in the distance. My son fishes and loves fishing channels. He enjoyed this video. We were all cracking up at your “he jumped back in the boat scene” haha. Nice videos. Relaxing. Peace.

I fish on the duck and on the buffalo river. Is a 110 whopper plopper too big? It looks like you may be using a 110.. I’ve only used it once on the buffalo and didn’t get much action. I caught a 9.9 inch rock bass on a torpedo yesterday. Pretty good size rock.

I use GoPro hindsight. It records the previous 30 seconds, constantly, and so whenever you click record it starts 30 seconds into the clip. It’s a great function but has been problematic lately on both my GoPro 10 and 11. The video posting in about a half hour is the GoPro 11 but is still having issues.

It was a good fish (bigger than 2 lbs, and I’d say at least 3), but keep in mind that I fish in rivers, where fish don’t sit and get fat. They burn calories fighting current. They’re long and lean. My PB isn’t a Dale Hollow 9lb smallie, it’s 4lb 3oz Harpeth River smallie. GoPros suck at both zoom and depth. Thats the only thing they suck at.
