I’m CONFLICTED… But Should I Be?? (Dale Hollow Practice Vlog)

[@thequestforbigguns2008]

Man I hate to see you struggling, I'm pulling for you every derb. I. Amen down to the "holler" Friday to see you guys and missed you. I sent you some road/boat snack peanut butter M&M''s with Brett. Good luck in the next one I'm rooting for you.

[@tonyparsley641]

Great to see you and at dale holler. We met you up on the hill where they fix boats

[@johnnyweaver1300]

All those guys are so lucky to have your friendship so positive, up beat person! Decisions Decisions that's the name of the game, in a tournament setting there's no time to waste, with FFS in play you have to that on certain areas of the country!👍🎣

[@ufcguruofficial]

Always wishing the best for you MDj. Go get em on Euafala

[@tobeybydabay]

Never had the pleasure of fishing Dale Hollow. Watching your video, parts of the lake remind me of Berryessa. Just trust your gut Mark, it got you this far bro. Good luck, I'm rooting for ya.

[@timothycurry9829]

Good luck Mark,keep on grinding you’re going one soon brother.

“. THEY AINT COMING” Dc

[@calvinreed2629]

I believe in you MDJ. Find a way to work the FFS and do your thing fishing shallow. I know you can do it.

[@Parkersgrow31319]

Mark you can’t hide it Brodie 💯🙏🏿❤️

[@kevinross9852]

MDJ you still got it in you and you got the Lord on your side your turn is coming will keep you in our prayers enjoy all the upbeat that you give the guys in the house

[@JasonSullivanBigBass]

I have to say it Mark live scope is the deal now brother. I know you know it to just wanting to keep it honest cant blame you. Great video

[@slimdadde419]

You give me confidence to keep fishing thnk you brother and God bless

[@stevem1111]

MDJ is the man

[@shawnsutton2648]

In every fish counts format, FFS is a must. Quantity over quality. 5 fish you have a small chance hitting the bank. IMO

[@michaelsanchez3659]

Every single winning spot this season for BPT and RedCrest has been found DURING the tournament. Since the MLF format is so drawn out, it seems like you just need to practice for the best day 1 you can possibly get to give yourself time to find the best spot for knockout and championship. Easier said than done. Thanks for filming MDJ!

[@fragelicious]

Garmin FFS just looks so much better than Live view. That brush pile showed it.

[@tannerhaun1713]

You had to work for my subscription been watching almost every video you have and forgot to subscribe

[@dewaynethomas3258]

MDJ what spinning reels you use just wondering because I have been using baitcaster and I need some spinning reels. I like the way that drag sounds.

[@HawgWyldFishing]

You gatta learn how to find that perfect balance between the two sides. That’s how the guys who find the most success are going to do it. You gatta find out how to balance shooting 3s and getting nasty in the paint on them boys. The 3 point shot(finding good fish shallow) is always going to be lethal, but you gatta hit the shots. And there are gonna be times that you really just need to get a little nasty and go get that & 1 in the paint(FFS). Throughout the course of a game, you need both. It’s just knowing how and when to take em.

[@bryansherlin1914]

Seeing you call your wife shows alot about you as a man. Much respect.

[@gerardpinto1192]

Live scope is the only way to keep up the old way is the dead way

[@fragelicious]

Some still like to skill fish. It's actually fun.

[@anthonyhill3771]

My lakes are highly pressured so bad, you can’t try to catch them on practice day. You can only window shop with your electronics til tournament day 😂 #indiana

[@fishingwithcamo-joe88]

👀🔥💯

[@JasonSullivanBigBass]

Dude this week proves no more winning on the banks . But great job and i was praying for you.

[@bigfishonline33]

Don't use FFS, and get your head CRACKED! It is what it is until the rules change. Do whatever you need to do as long as it's within the rules. Good luck, MDJ.

[@johnjohnson5933]

Grest vid

[@rvw8066]

Something will change soon. Shouldn’t surprise anyone that the next gen of ffs is rumored to be even more clear and precise with a further reach. I just hope the fishing organizations and the anglers get to decide before parks and wildlife decides for them

[@fragelicious]

Don't forget your skill fishing, Mark. TV will do something about scope fishing next year, like paying a lot less for pro fishing, broadcast rights.

[@slabbusterrtr7690]

FFS all the way man its not about how you like to fish or what the haters say its about CATCHING period!!! personally i dont care how you catch them cause thats what its about 👊

[@bojudd1965]

Gets 2👍👍from me ..... and the third one is on the counter ^ ^ .

[@jamesharper7459]

Mark, here’s a question for ya. When practicing for the next event, why are trying to catch the fish? Don’t you just want to get bit and not scare the fish away by catching them?

[@DMV49ers]

💪🏾✌🏽

[@tonyparsley641]

I’m 45 from center hill

[@fragelicious]

Start researching your Eufaula log books.

[@traceybrookd9821]

No bank fish

[@gregunderwood5566]

Go win it shallow

[@Woodland-Gangsta]

Stop playing Mark, Live scope is the deal for this tournament. Like DC says "they ain't coming " 😂

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

I always catch fishing when I call my wife.. Keep on doing your homework brah. It's going to pay off.

[@tompindell4243]

Junior, you ain't old enough to have a 16 year old! 😁

[@nethiabrown1508]

Why don't you go back to the old way that you use to fish with the Zman plastic and floater pink wrom.

[@Parkersgrow31319]

Thank you!!

[@charylstephens6875]

Because you must fish where the fish are. Some are on the bank, but not the numbers EFC's is about the numbers. When Mark stops being stubborn and embraces FFS he will rock again.

[@nethiabrown1508]

Look cuz you your live scope pand around and find them Small mouth Bass and put the smack down on them okay you got this it's your time now.Bring home the win okay love you cuz Bassmaster Brown.

[@dprob1985]

Ffs is too much. We dont allow certain technologies in other sports to conserve the legitimacy. Bass fishing tournaments have to do the same. Love the fact your your starting to really think about it. Wtg mark!

[@benbrownlow5007]

Don’t fish the bank!! JW gonna win off shore, maybe. Act like you don’t know and smash em

[@joeg1709]

You were 2 warm days away from the shallow bite to be competitive in the actual tournament. Not win, but competitive. Dhl is a funny lake. Ffs will always be king there now that it's a thing, but dragging the c rig or hard head around catches the bigs. And it blew my mind that nobody had a spinnerbait tied on. Like, nobody. Spinning rods as far as the eye can see lol

[@Letzgobrandun-wi1pc]

Gonna be banned soon anyway get back.to the basics... SON!

[@db9818]

😂

[@scottbrewer2221]

Sorry but you cannot win without FFS. Tournaments are proving it.

[@fishingva2167]

When it's about numbers and all you can catch maybe. But 5 fish limit tournaments can still be won without the bullshit ffs

[@HawgWyldFishing]

Sorry but you aren’t paying attention.

[@CHASIN_A_BASS]

Idk bassmaster classic said otherwise.. hamner was doing more fishing than scoping

[@HawgWyldFishing]

@@CHASIN_A_BASS these people aren’t the people who actually watch the tournaments and pay attention. Which is why I think it’s comical that they think they should be allowed to decide the direction tournaments go in regards to FFS. They don’t have boats, they don’t buy sonar/mapping units, they don’t buy gear, and they don’t go fishing. They probably have a 30 year old Zebco 33 with line so dry rotted it wouldn’t cast a split shot without snapping, because it hasn’t been used in 10 years. These are the kind of people that are on social media crying their little hearts out about the future of tournament angling and the advancement and use of technology.

[@slabbusterrtr7690]

So he's just needs to fish the banks no matter if the fish are up there or not???? How stupid would that be 😂 y'all haters I tell ya so as long as he's throwing at the bank it's REAL fishing ??what if he went out in the middle and uses his 2 d sonar to catch them like they use to is that still NOT REAL fishing ??? 🙄
