I love how all rolands vids r variations of either senko, devils horse, frog, or ploppers lol he knows what he likes to throw and he sticks to it

I reckon he's limited by the shallow Everglades.

Love how he says “it’s only a 3lb’er”. I love this channel!

[@myckee]

Wheeew SOOOoon !! Biiig Fish!!! Don't forget to kiss them big ol Bass, Roland!! Great video as always guys.

[@matthargis9839]

I caught my first bass on one of these. Now I collect the oldest versions I can get my hands on. I have over 300 n my collection with a lot of them being made in the 50s and 60s

[@lftdblazer]

Probably my all time favorite top water lure. I've fished 'em ever since I've known anything about fishing.

[@mikebailey2119]

Roland, nothing beats watching those bass smash that devils horse. Doubling that line is going to be a big help. Also should help not getting caught on the front hook.🎣🐟

[@davidalbero2485]

Every time I see your video, if I can, I take the car and go to a reservoir that takes 30 minutes to fish.. Thanks for your passion

[@wesleybigham1]

Your instructions are on point. I like how you break everything down and explain everything. Thank you sir

[@jeffreypsl1]

Roland was my inspiration to start bass fishing!! I learned so many tips, tricks, and techniques from this man. Thank you Roland!!

[@cincinnatiking8008]

Thanks Roland, I caught my first fish on a Devil's Horse this morning. Your video helped me know how to work the bait.

[@Floridafisherman5000]

I caught a small bass on my Smithwick Devils Horse lure the other day for the first time!! Was really awesome!!! I'm sold on it!!

[@allenjohnson6605]

I've been watching you Jimmy, Bill for over 45 years and enjoyed it . I learned a ton from you guys. Thanks 😊

[@BillyGlass117]

Don't thank us Roland, it's us viewer's who would love to say THANK YOU! Your working really hard for all of this great content.

[@jackene415]

Thanks for another great video

[@kenmccarthyfishing]

Wow I haven’t fished the Devils Horse since the 90’s,awesome job Roland 💪👍🔥

[@parrotbill9072]

You should come and fish in the Panhandle today. With 15" of rain and only 20mph winds, I'll be able to fish from my back porch in Tallahassee. WAHOO! 🤠👍

[@ziggyblue782]

Dang! That’s a lot of water. We’re so dry here, 15 inches of rain would have us dancing in the street. Well, swimming most likely but we’d take it.

[@keepingitreel6319]

I learned from you watching your videos n caught 2 big Bass with the spinner bait 👍🏽

[@jessehillis7830]

Man roland you are so full of knowledge its unreal! Thank you for always sharing your wisdom with us and showing us how to use your favorite lures!! Love it man!!

[@chriscarroll3635]

With a front and back spinner you would think it would make more commotion than it does. Barely does anything. I used to use a nip-i-diddee and I caught some giants when I was young. Loved that lure.

[@Kingtiger14]

Nice video I been wearing bass out on the devil horse!

[@rickyhenry4958]

Thanks for the video Roland!

[@SWCFLORIDA]

Great video. I’m still stalking you around all the lakes until I meet you. I’m on it.

Thanks Roland helps a lot.!👊🏻

[@stratagem_5113]

Bullfrog 1/2 oz. has been my favorite for years. Just like you say Roland. Been fishing it the same way , I will every now and then give it a double twitch... LOL. Devil's Horse, Zara Spook, and Pop R all I ever used. I am old school I guess...

[@lucafrancia44]

Thank you Roland grate tips for catch a bigle baas i look every video end fenomenal thank you again

I hope you are in the Fishing Hall of Fame if there is one! You, Jimmy Houston, and Bill Dance should all be there!

Another Great video !!! Lots of topwater action!!! Love to fish the Devilshorse .. Need to modify mine to two hooks.. Never liked the light hooks that come on them ... Keep'em coming Roland .. Love your teaching videos .. Always short and full of Good info and full of action ...

Hey Roland! That ol devils horse is the deal! Definitely gonna have to get one of those see if they like it out on the st johns river. Great video much respect

[@valeriepowell1736]

Wow Roland, you are an amazing teacher. I've watched your son and grand daughter and they are great anglers... It's Val I've had company for the last two weeks. I've only saltwater fished and worked on a deep sea fishing boat. It was kind of like drop a line... there is so much technic in bass or lake fishing. I would love to learn.... I might be to old...lol. I haven't forgot about you at all. Love it and God Bless Valerie

I have yet to catch one on a devils horse (shame on me). Now I know what to look for detail wise 👍

Wait, how did you get to S FL from Oklahoma for coffee yesterday? :)

[@williamlaws2353]

Roland ever fish the Ma Scooter it was a killer I know you used butternut on your handmade bait. Maybe you should try cedar

[@michaelbarnett2527]

I came in second place in a tournament primarily using a devil’s horse. And most of the fish were caught along a hydrilla edge.

[@billyallmon5039]

Rowland do you have a devils toothpick I loved that bait and was po ed when smithwick quit making it

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

No

[@northeastkentuckyoutdoors6455]

Do you always take the middle hook out and put two larger ones on this lure?

[@bobbyswain7049]

How big was that big one in the pepper grass Roland?

[@jamescaspersamanthalintner4767]

Roland I recently read an article on florida bass. In the article they were discussing that research has indicated that florida strain large mouth are a stand alone species and not a sub species of the northern strain. Have your heard any talk about this being so familiar with florida bass? I've often thought that they had distinct characteristics that set them apart

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

True

[@jamescaspersamanthalintner4767]

@@RolandMartinOutdoors very cool. A video on the difference between the two species would be extremely interesting! I've seen no one do this yet on youtube, thanks for replying boss

How do you tie the “double line” mentioned at 1:17 in the video?

Never mind. I listened again and heard “Bimini Twist” so I googled it and found out how to tie it.

[@johnkennedy2060]

How would a devil horse work on trout?

[@jeffellenberger6533]

I have heard that you have to pause for a couple seconds before you set the hook... could you please explain how long and how this works?? Thanks for all your videos I've recently done very well on the senko due to your videos!!

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

I don't pause on topwater, just the worm for I'm fishing a high rod and I have to lower it to set the hook!

Do bass come and investigate weird noises

[@mattcurrie3862]

Does anyone else notice the gator at 4:55? Roland probably sees them all the time so he's uninterested in it.

[@dylandixon5300]

Anybody mind explaining what he means when he says he’s using a double line on the lure? Like a double Uni knot?

[@DavidBronstein1961]

Mr. Martin: why remove the middle Hook? Thanks!

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

I try different combinations

[@doughendley2443]

how often do you need to replace your hooks on lures to keep them sharp?

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

Keep checking them

@@RolandMartinOutdoors This might be a dumb question but how do you check them for sharpness. Im relatively new to the fishing scene. Love to do it but still learning.

Roland's wrong on all four of his points... and for those of us who've been in the game awhile, we know why.

I've been fishing for L.M bass for a solid 45 years and he sounds pretty on point to me . i.m.o.p

[@jerrylanglois7892]

@@drinkthekoolaidkids I've been bassin for 58 yrs. and learned, like the great rick clunn said, there are no absolutes in fishing. I don't mean to knock roland martin but I've caught bass in every way opposite to what roland claims is the best to fish the '' devils horse '' : 1 - '' super slow retrieve '' ... caught bass on a straight '' buzzing '' retrieve, 2 '' clear water... caught them in muddy water as well, 3 '' warm water ''... caught them in cold water ( 45 degrees ), '' calm water ''... caught them in choppy water, '' low light conditions ''... some of my best days were under bluebird skies. I've learned to let the fish tell me what they want, not what I think they want.
