I think taking 15 kindergarten/first graders fishing without any major incidents qualifies you for a level of sainthood. For kids that have parents that don't have time/ don't know how showing them how to fish is truly a beloved memory and it warms my heart that you are sharing that. My mom is probably the busiest person in the world and my dad is disabled so having adults show me kindness and teach me things outside of school was very rare and incredibly meaningful.

@@Speed99999 I'm not complaining, it's just a fact of life that my dad wasn't able to be a father to me and that's ok. Unfortunately your suggestion to just use modern tech to "fix" him isn't nearly that simple, his problems are almost entirely psychological and I doubt he will ever be different. Why do you feel like I'm complaining in my comment about the positive impact of taking kids fishing? Mentioning my parents was only to exemplify that not all parents have the time or capabilities to spend time with their kids outside and how meaningful it can be for them to have these experiences that they otherwise would miss out on

BamaBass PLEASE read!! - Place an electronic reader under the eagles nest so you can track which fish are being are being nabbed up!

My suggestion for the little Turtle is ANZAC - an Australian term we use for our upcoming Anzac Day celebration, 25 April, commemorating 25 April 1915. 25 April is the national day of commemoration of Australia and New Zealand for victims of war and for recognition of the role of their armed forces. It marks the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War.

ive been hooked on this video because of how awesome it was to watch you defend your bass against the herons in the backyard pond. watching the whole thing grow has been icing on the cake. its crazy to think that a simple fish naming idea will turn into the chance for people to actually see their "pet" and track its movements. also the potential to see its entire life span, or if it happens to get snatched up by bird. im hooked.

Bass schooling with Trout is the coolest thing i've seen in a while.

[@MrFishhook]

You need a eagle nest basket attached to the eagle platform. The type they put on power poles . They would probably build a nest on there . Definitely would be easier for them to build.

[@jic1]

Why on earth would people want to encourage large raptors to nest close to power cables?

[@MrFishhook]

@@jic1 Dood in Florida The birds build right on top off the power poles everywhere! The power companies put them on to get the birds above the lines so they don’t short out ! The birds build on them even if there isn’t a basket .

[@Heterogeneity]

@MrFishhook Thanks for explaining this. Some utilities put "eagle" platforms up above transmission lines here in CA because several species of large birds build nests on anything tall enough to suit their needs when tall enough trees or other nesting spots they prefer are not available.

[@Urmothasmothasmotha]

Yeah let’s keep the bald eagles around so they can keep eating bass full of microchips. Then we can track the bald eagles migration patterns!

[@jasonritner9662]

The tracking system is one of the coolest things I've seen. I can't wait to see the way all of that develops. Watching their habits and being able to track individual fish is so cool.
