The Bass Professor... Taught me everything I needed to know to catch Big Bass. Still use the f11 Rapala silver minnow to this day and catch Donkeys. Caught my first Lunker on a blue Rapala over 40 years ago.RIP Doug Hannon.

I really like the bass professor

[@keithtauber4153]

This looks like the ICAST show in Orlando 8 years ago. I was at that show and I also met and spoke with Doug. He might even have been wearing that same shirt? He talked for a long time with me. He really liked his new micro line guides as he talked about those for a while.

[@realjeffgarrett]

theodore Dow-man Have you ever seen his boat?

[@elonmust7470]

@@realjeffgarrett No but now I understand what you're saying.

[@realjeffgarrett]

theodore Dow-man Skeet’s boat is bright yellow

[@user-sh2mk8ew4c]

@@realjeffgarrett No wonder he ain’t won anything in years. You oughta call him. Send him this video. 😂

[@johnnymassengale6275]

Yellow may be a warning color, but I've caught a lot of Bass on yellow baits. But the man is on with the silhouette and colors above the waterline. I don't think a bright colored boat will make a difference difference in dirty water.

Anyone else notice how much Doug resembles Dr. Oz ? Lol

[@rickvann3489]

Great drinker, could really get smashed and wake up and do a show just like this.

[@elonmust7470]

really?

[@rickvann3489]

@@elonmust7470 yes, had a friend in the industry do boat shows with Doug. He would just tell me Doug would sit at the bar after the show and get smashed each night. Sat alone

[@elonmust7470]

@@rickvann3489 Wonder if it was really alcohol that took him out? He does have the leathery looknthat I'm so familiar with from growing up around serious alcohol abusers.

[@user-sh2mk8ew4c]

@@rickvann3489 A lot of very smart people are alcoholics. I don’t understand the connection. If you listen to Doug’s early videos you know he had that college theory of “millions of years ago”. Which told me he didn’t believe in God. It is hard enough to go through life for me if I thought I was just here by chance. That the whole world was here by chance. I don’t know how a man can look at all of Creation and the perfection of it and say “yeah this all just happened like winning the Lottery”. And that is exactly how those very smart people think. I theorize when his wife died he just gave up. I have a seen a lot of men do that. A great fisherman that did lose his wife to cancer but is back professional fishing is Mark Menéndez. I never heard him say it. But I guarantee you he believes in God. Now I am not talking about going around and trying to save the world. Just a belief that there is more to this world than what we see. I think Doug lacked that. IMHO. And opinions are like asssholes we all got 1. Getting ready for the 2021 Bassmaster Classic!!!!!! Have wanted to go since I remember being alive. Finally in my home state of TEXAS!!!!

@@user-sh2mk8ew4c it would be nice when people finally figure out that there are only two kinds of people, those that are saved and those about to be saved which one are you? (Question to all) I use this to lead or sow a seed into a person's life so that they oneday see Jesus as lord and savior for all mankind. When I said Doug could drink it was not to take away from Doug and what he has done, just stating he could hold his one.
