Punching Hydrilla Matts at Florida's new Headwaters Lake

[@paulrescigno8541]

Roland still got it and hard love watching you for 25 years now

[@ejercicioalberto5162]

Maestro de primera gracias Roland

[@robertmartin7964]

The big ones are biting in these cold snaps. Glad to see you feeling better, hope to see you out there one day.

[@scottvictory52]

Your information is great. Thanks for showing the action on the weight.

[@drmitofit2673]

No over-produced theme-songed intro. Just reeling in huge trophy bass! That's the way to do it, Son!

[@DFox-ud3gx]

Roland that's a big ole bass we still catch em this big in maryland but not many holes have big bass but their here in md still. Like in Loch Raven Reservoir in Baltimore (your home town) a buddy told me.

[@wesleybigham1]

No wonder your shoulder is sore! Those hook sets are violent! Haha love your hook sets Mr. Martin. Nice catches buddy!

[@joebrann4612]

Im so glad to see you feeling better! Take care of you, and the whacky 6 inch Zoom Watermelon Red said please deadstick me! Happy fishing!

[@BlacHaze78]

Roland hook set snatched the soul outta those fish.

[@truckguy6666]

He seems like such a great teacher. But you KNOW he's got a whole treasure chest of more secrets and tricks that will goto the grave with him.

[@fishwithmetoday7489]

I've often thought the same. Definitely one of the greats

[@mikebailey2119]

Roland, so glad you are feeling better. It's been a hard couple of months for you. I would love to catch a 8lb bass. I here that cowboy is a good trailer for a vibrating jig like thunder cricket. 🐟🎣

[@ThatShinerGuy]

Headwaters is a pretty cool joint. Lots of big fish and lots of hydrilla.

[@georgeneckrock7575]

Love these videos !!!

[@dustinyoung9096]

Great video sir

[@ryanbuckley3314]

Sometimes on Georgian Bay we use 80 lb braid too. Mostly when we run out of gas.

[@SaltyFreshFlorida]

What to pull you back to the ramp? lol

[@richardmorton5538]

Great video

[@donprater2754]

It’s beginning!

[@bobbyyoung7836]

Huh??????? Fill us in

[@whittamps]

Does my heart good to see you back at it and lifting toads

[@geraldsaved]

ROLAND IS BACK BABY

[@Dr.Ratio69]

Ohohohoh this is amazing. I am not a artificial bait fisherman. But this so temptating

[@roysaari3028]

How many 10 pound bass have you caught in your life, Roland? Can you tell us that on your next video? Enjoy the day out there!!! Love every one of your videos!!

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

Over 200

[@roysaari3028]

@@RolandMartinOutdoors Wow!! That is an amazing feat...thank you for the response and sharing your life with each of us!!

[@760BassFishing]

Way to go Roland Martin awesome video brotha thanks for all the tips man. But really would like to catch them big o bass lol

[@warrenlouisiana2277]

Good video,,,,,,,,

[@valeriepowell1736]

Wow, Roland that sure is a fat guy fish (or girl) Maybe I should drive a few minutes and come see you. We sure do have some great places to fish here in Florida don't we? I learn so much from you watching you. Pretty soon you'll teach me enough to fish with Jimmy.... bam! Have a blessed night.....

[@SaltyFreshFlorida]

Yes we do! Roland is the GOAT

[@arciefan]

Hey Roland , be careful those normark scales you are using , I think are like mine and only go to 10lbs. That is higher than I would ever need lol, but you need the higher ones at times.

[@atmfree2325]

Please record in 1080p with a better camera if you can! These videos are so good that the quality should be HD.

[@WereAllThatBored]

Awesome content! but I cant help but see the algae bloom. FWC must have sprayed the lake recently. Clockwork when they spray the green spores show up.

[@slamitervyday8610]

GOAT !!!

[@michaelfaught5322]

I guess tearing the teasers off and just tossing them into the waterway is acceptable. It's one thing when we lose plastics on catching fish but throwing it into the waterway is wrong.

[@vovo1730]

Why dot you walk to work & hold your breath for infinity & beyond to save the rest of us for your carbon profile for ever and ever. Thank you for saving us all.

[@ericthered976]

I agree. If more people were even slightly more conscientious about the way they conduct their daily lives, we wouldn't have oceans and lakes full of plastics and styrenes. I live on a small tidal canal in FL and every tide brings with it cigarette butts, black n mild tips, plastic bottles, gloves, face masks...you name it. I love Roland and love watching his whole family fish but I wish they or someone like them in the public spotlight would start bringing attention to this stuff. I've tried to find alternatives to soft plastic baits that would decompose and there are a few companies working on it but none of them have the $ behind them like the large sponsorship companies. Some day!

[@motorcycleislife8296]

Hey Roland what size tungsten weight would you throw if you were fishing a Texas rig senko with a bobber stop?

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

In shallow water with little wind, I start with a 1/16

[@gl3618]

First 00:20 seconds was me back in highschool as I walked the halls, hyping myself up. Rest of the video...nothing like any part of my life. Lol

[@swamp_rat_fla1126]

I gotta go fish the Headwater this spring

[@franktorres3081]

When Roland gets to the water the fish give up come out with their fins up

[@fishwithmetoday7489]

Haha, you gotta love it when he says that!

[@bobbyyoung7836]

I was wondering why Rolamd was not there on the trip

[@kokomon5]

Any difference between flipping/punching rod ? What model # is the favorite flipping rod u got ?

[@geraldsaved]

I bet if he would compete he’d win

[@kokomon5]

Wouldn't 50 # braid work ?

[@bobbyyoung7836]

Papa saw Scott and Hilary??????

[@Pat19997]

Tieing a snell knot on one of those flipping hooks with the keeper, just about has to be one of the more difficult time-consuming knots to tie, there just is no room on that part of the shank.

[@paulkimble6223]

Try the owner jungle flippin hook, it has enough room to get 8 wraps before you get to the keeper

[@Pat19997]

@@paulkimble6223 Thanks, will do

[@paulkimble6223]

Damn Roland get a scale that you don’t have to jam a hook into their gills to use

[@hummer4u2nv11]

The hook goes under the 'v' (not gills) this does not damage gills. Also he catches BIG bass that are too heavy for the 'lip-grip' style.

[@biilybutt9016]

@@hummer4u2nv11 I got a hummer for you to envy...she gets on her knees and gets humming.

[@creek1514]

Can I ask why such heavy line?

[@SystemFreak17]

Getting even a small fish up through that heavy mat of hydrilla can be rough. Or they run and try to wrap you up in lillypad stalks. Gotta be able to yank them out.

[@creek1514]

@@SystemFreak17 Thanks for the response man

[@Mrlemelle1]

Oh, if you catch a bass 8lbs or over and it's recorded, here in Florida, you get a certificate and Bass Pro gives you like $100 gift card!!!!!! So, I'll just put this bass back. 🤦🏽‍♂️ Must be nice🤣

[@johnbennett7244]

Cool video. But, please don't throw discarded plastic into the water. We have enough trouble with pollution. Plus, smaller fish swallow those little bits of plastic and suffer internal problems. This sets a bad example for kids. Thanks.
