Cool interaction with the rookie. Lot of shade being thrown their way, I don’t know if it is warranted or not but that interaction showed the brotherhood of bassin’.

[@Cjdklh]

I like Tyler too. He seemed nervous, there was a time it was my dream and I would have been nervous as hell with skeet, Aaron Martens or KVD as a rookie. Talking to his idol probably.

[@Zaldaingerous]

@@Cjdklh That’s just Tyler. He’s not nervous but always giggly. The majority of us have no issue with many of the rookies, but there are some who deserve the heat. Previously, my words were twisted to say I was lumping all rookies together and that was not the case.

[@PickwickPirate]

If the world had more kids like Tyler it would be a better place !

[@chrissparks6380]

Why do they deserve the heat for not breaking any written rules? Doing things that have been done for years but actually kicking people's ass consistently. Not trying to be a d1ck but looks more like jealousy

[@bigwaterbassin4961]

@@Zaldaingerouswho deserves the heat and for what? Let’s name some names and get specifics. If they are being shady let’s make examples of them for the rest of the field. The Pros set the tone for the rest of the industry. Just merely alluding to situations without specifics is so frustrating and it erodes your credibility with the general public over time. Let’s right the ship and remove the BS.

Todd I just want to say, you’re a stand up dude and really appreciate your integrity in your videos. Good things happen to good people!

[@Zaldaingerous]

There’s a line designed but we hesitated to put it up. I’ll see if we can go ahead and move forward with everything

[@F.Ronnie]

Videography is amazing. Your guy is doing an awesome job. Great content. Thanks Chris and Charles. Charles? I think I got it right.

[@maxcole3930]

This is my 3rd spring sense moving down here so I still have a lot to learn about the hearing lakes!!! But I do know can't beat flukes & any worms presentations. I fish my flukes with belly weighted hooks so I can fish them faster & deeper. Fish them fast as I can.

One thing FFS has given me is a chance to throw a Neko rig more

Awesome video Z. Can you just come pick me up an go fishing. I've Livwd on EM since 1983. I've mowed for the Timberlake HOA for 28 year's an have my own key for mowing their boat ramp and can lock everything up. F×ck launching at the new Twin Points Marina. I'm 3 streets behind Outdoor World on Toronto Rd were they sell the Zero Turns parked out front on 199.

I don’t want to meet you either 😉 unless it’s at a celebration party Sunday night

My home lake I was pulling for ya. Just wish they would let the hydrilla come back. It was awesome when it did. Godspeed man.

[@Zaldaingerous]

I didn’t have the patience to post up on a shad spawn spot and wait them out. I like to move around

[@JaridTomnitz]

What leader knot do you use? I wouldn’t mind dabbling with it. I’ve always been big on straight fluorocarbon, never trusted connection knots seen to many guys lose fish bc of them popn.

[@Zaldaingerous]

FG Knot… I can go days without tying a new one. Strongest connecting knot

[@stevenconley2382]

Chris, love your content but for the life of me why doesn't BASS address the bass track issue I mean name me any sports event where every competitor doesn't know where he/they stand. It's crazy. So many guys sandbag. I have to admit watching MLF events is far more captivating, those guys know where they stand just like in tennis, golf, baseball, basketball, football or any other competition. It is nuts following bass track and seeing someone reporting 19 lbs. then weigh in 25 lbs. MLF guys fight like all hell to make the cut line. BASS should institute a penalty for reporting shitty info on bass track. I don't know something like for every pound you're off on bass track you lose 8 ounces. It just doesn't seem like a sports event when you don't know where you stand in relation to other competitor's

[@arthurdsoto5751]

I remember the Shot Gun Starts & they stopped them because of safety concerns Although they sure were fun.
