The vlogs this year have better production value than most of the fishing TV shows these days. Great job team SMC!!

You are spot on, I even feel the same about hunting shows. You ever watch the hunting public?

Whatever happened to Brandon? Not saying the production is better or worse I just know he’s got different guys m.

[@TexasDigitalOutdoors]

I agree with this, 100%

[@andrewwolf4963]

They really do but I’m guessing that’s because he literally has a TV show , and is likely the most wealthy KZbinr angler and knows what quality is / is willing to put in the money and work

[@andrewmcavoy8841]

That big one you lost on the bed on day 1 hurt me man. I could only imagine what you felt when it came off. You picked yourself back up and trudged on and did well. Good job Scott.

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Thank you so much Andrew!

It hurt me to see that big one get away also but Scott grit those teeth and stood strong , right on man 😑👍

[@adamsmith3996]

Yeah I've never fished a bass tournament in my life but I know the feeling of losing a big fish all too well. Hate it.

I really don’t watch tournament fishing besides Scott and some kayak guys. Nice to see the bass being released during spawn

Dude, that was hilarious

[@colbyjdutton]

I was about to comment the same thing! 😂😂🤣

[@tgillrgill]

Just got to say great videos and content. You have been a great inspiration to me with your true to life goal. I watched my wife fight breast cancer for over a year and half only to loose that fight on 11/7/20. She made me promise her to keep on fishing and not to worry that my fishing family and friends will help me threw the sadness and tough times. Your videos have been a huge part of that. Thank you. Rick Gill.

[@diverjake12]

Grew up watching your Dad and watching you fish and the saying you said that stuck in my head for my life is “keep your head down and keep fishing” YOU WILL WIN THIS! Just pray and fish

[@Matt-Firedude]

Damn near broke my finger when I saw this video had uploaded. Your doing great things Scott, hats off to you and your crew!

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Thanks Matt!! You’re the reason we keep grinding

[@dmacjac]

I enjoyed the video. I understand the Dad thing. I had hopes to fish professionally when I was a young chap. My Dad ran a local gas station that was THE local hunting and fishing tackle place to go. I was an avid reader of Bassmasters and followed your dad as well. Dad talked about us getting a boat and fishing. Sadly he suddenly passed from a heart attack at the young age of 55. I was 13. My dreams were dashed against the rocks of fate. I’ll be 62 this July. I retired from the State Police 12 years ago but work Campus Safety at a small college. I’m hoping if the winds are fair that next year I can get a used bass boat and fish a few local tournaments. I want to get a special jersey made that say’s “Martin’s Texaco” even though it doesn’t exist anymore except in my memories. Good Luck with your chase Scott. Fair skies and Tight Lines buddy.

[@kylenelson6947]

My nephew just got accepted to be a junior staff angler for Favorite! He loves your videos and follows your KZbin and career. He’s 15 and pushing hard to earn a fishing scholarship. Thank y’all for putting out such great videos!

[@user-sh2mk8ew4c]

Lake Fork is unbelievable. That lake gets hammered 7 days a week. And still produces big bass and big tournament bags. Lake Fork is Texas Parks and Wildlife fair haired child. They keep up on fish population and keep it stocked with Florida strain. I never fish there any longer because of the pressure. We have a couple lakes in Texas that just get hammered. It’s very sad if you fished these lakes in the 90’s. To see all the boats today. On a Wednesday. I am so happy to see the catch and release tournaments. It should be a law. --Excellent video. I have not watched in a long time. You are obviously accomplishing goals. When you decide to hang it up, no pun intended, i expect a book on success and goal setting and how to accomplish goals. I have no doubt you will fish a classic. Guys- GUYS YOU MUST READ the great Tom Manns book. It is in my top 5 book reads. God speed Scott Martin.

[@liacia8052]

Scott, I'm rooting for you. You got this ALL DAY EVERY DAY.

You forget, when you asked us to guess the winning weight in the comments on day one. The tournament was already over. Great video

The tournament videos have been great this year Scott. An hour flies by like it's 30min. I'm hear for it, and I don't give out compliments very easily.

[@addicted_to_fishing]

When I seen your line jump I said instantly that’s a good fish. Sight fishing at its finest! Great work Scott

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Thanks bro

[@rayhollis3923]

Your videos are so entertaining. Even when you know the outcome, it is still great to see how you got there. My boy (9) still loves ya'lls houses for the tournaments. Like, Daddy we gotta stay there. Keep on the throttle, you got this!

[@Hockey88NY]

I am so glad you decided to do these video’s. I grew up watching your Dad. You doing these videos has brought me back to watching these videos again. Keep fighting the good fight. You are a man that is truly blessed. Look forward to watching more videos!

[@trevorr3519]

This has been such a great series. I have watched everyone of them and watched leader boards before getting to see these and cant wait to see what you caught. Congrats on your 23rd place!!!

Scott you can win the classic. I am a high schooler from Indiana hoping to fish the high school series next spring and your videos are what inspired me to get my school to make a team.

When I watched Scott put the first fish back I didn't know it was this type of an event. I was like 'Scott, what are you doing?'

Definitely the responsible thing to do seeing that these bass are on beds. Definitely would be better to have all tourneys in this format though.

[@fishingwithfreemans]

Got some tips for anyone who fishes big swim baits, since Scott fished one for a little bit. When you get big bites they don’t hammer the lure if it’s a big fish that can happen but usually those hammer bites are smaller fish under 7 pounds the big fish bites feel like little ticks so when you feel those small ticks and that something ain’t right feeling swing that rod hard, you’ll catch more biggins on those bigger swimbaits like that. Especially when you work the swimbaits on the bottom those big fish will just suck it in since their mouth is so big. And those smaller fish hammer the lure typically to pin it since there mouths aren’t big enough depending on the swimbait. And that tick feeling is when there mouth closes on the line soon as you feel that swing. It feels very similar to a jig bite for some perspective. I’m assuming you know this already Scott but If you didn’t well then there ya go 😆 good luck Scott! 🤙🏼

[@tarpontim2652]

15 7lb average is definitely doable. FishedFork when it first opened, way back in the day. I now live in Indiantown. Met you many times while staying at y'all's place. Good times and great place to stay. Very nice condos and killer breakfast. Good luck.

[@michaelbozarth4446]

Hey Scott, just want to say that you and your dad are my favorite pro fisherman. I live in east Texas and I followed you on bassmaster while you were fishing on lake fork. I would like to send some pictures to you of some fish I caught if you would send me some info on how to do it. I have learned so much about fishing by watching you and your dad. Thank you and God Bless.
