I really enjoy Scott's vids, I like his early bird routine and good natured harassment of his buddies, etc. Also think it's so cool when he's out with his daughter also. I can't tournament fish that much anymore due to health and age but Scott's time on the water keeps my interest high.

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Keep it up! Thank you!

[@terrytriton2265]

The behind the scenes are the best. That's the fun part of a fishing trip , just BS with the guys.

[@benjaminhurmx]

Look at how nice Bill wakes everyone up. I wish my mama woke me up like that.

[@DanielDalienVignjevic]

hahaha Bradley Hallman`s moment with 5 - 7 pounders is hilarious :))))

[@MrGrigs681]

Having to fish lakes you don't know, sometimes in weather you would not normally fish in and always feel the pressure to produce would most definitely take away some of the pure joy that is fishing to us normal guys. However, after hearing what Todd said about how much fun it is to be in the house with those guys makes me want to start tournament fishing! Great attitude Todd and another great video Scott.

[@marksworld13]

"I got Lewisvilled today" Nice one Andrew 11:59 That quote belongs on a hat!

[@tulsabassprofessor5009]

Love your boat man! Good video big dog keep em coming.

[@iceicebabybass5711]

@Scott Martin: I live close to Lewisville and wanted to come see you. Maybe one day when I get a boat I will come see you. I stopped watching Vlog fishing videos recently, but somehow I found your channel and now I love watching yours. I love your vibe and love how you’re and Family man, and most importantly, a Godly man. Keep up the good work, hope to meet you soon! God bless you and your family and Happy Holidays!

[@jaebass02]

They Gunna stay sleep with vocals like that 😂

[@jefft5795]

Hey Scott love both u n Hilary's videos I watch them all but what I love the most is you both put Christ 1st n that means everything. Keep up the great work also love your dad too what a legend.

[@primelegend9504]

My 3 go to for Texas bass fishing in late fall/early winter: #3: suspended jerk bait #2: Texas rig worm #1: Carolina rig - for fall/winter I use a 3ft leader, 4in lizard, chartreuse dip the tail. This is my number one go to when the bite is really slow on these Texas lakes.

[@tuckeralexander2951]

Well welcome to Lewisville!!! This is my home lake and it showed it’s true colors.. truly a tough lake to fish...Very disappointing that they have turned this lake into a tourist lake now... you should see this place during summer time... one of the biggest known yacht clubs show up at this lake every day of the summer. Still enjoyed watching and glad I could pick up some tips to help me try some new things out!!

[@gerrybritton1438]

Keep your head up Scott. You got a ton of support from the gang up here in PA. You got this!!!!

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Thank you!!!

[@yamirgomez9402]

Boss Let's Go You got this Big Bass Energy 🎣🐟🇺🇸🛶🎉🎊🦃🦃🦃🙏😁deep slipper 🐟

[@aidencarpenter6665]

I love the behind the scenes

[@elitegb7206]

From one elite to another....yall are killing these videos Scott. Yes sir

[@FlynDirty1]

Scott, I notice that you find wads of fish during a time in the day. When I watch your video your in a spot at first light when you found it after lunch. Find that early morning pattern. Fish docks, boats, timber. Get what you can until you get to your hot spots. I tournament fish Crappie and that’s like the pattern we use. Shallow to deeper brush that holds the hogs. One of the fishermen that’s with you were catching them off a brush pile. That’s an early morning stop and after lunch stop. Start shallow and work your way out.

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Most of the time that is the case..

[@mattdillion4999]

Billy my fellow South Cack'a'lacking brother (ORANGEBURG) YOU are the star of the house . Scott , you said it before... Stop chasing the bite and have more patience when you know the fish are there.

[@jl3397]

Man! So sorry, Scott. That was hard to watch and I felt the frustration building right along with ya! But what made it all worth it, was at the very end when you mentioned getting to go home early to surprise your wife and kids! That is ALWAYS what is important and that is why I follow your vid's...you know what is truly important in life and where your priorities are! You are a good man for young people to look up to in this sport! Hang in there...He's got you! Praying for ya, brother!

[@benlandry6373]

Cracks me up every time Scott says, “We got to go dude.”

[@codylebleu951]

When I’m having a bad day that is my go to statement….drives my little brother nuts

[@rustyscopano2667]

Scott I Love the videos. I also loved how even though you had a bad day you kept getting after it and never gave up. I will be pulling for you hard in December in Alabama. Keep smiling the good days are ahead.

[@primetime1868]

IM gonna tell you Scott you are a class act one of the best fishermen in the country but most important a awesome father and husband. If every man on the face of this earth was like you trust me this world would be a much better place.

[@johncharlet660]

What makes a champion like yourself is that you’ll keep your head up and accomplish the goal at the last tourney. Great job.

[@BassGangsta]

hmmm 🤔 that was actually fun to watch, more than the other videos, even though it was a tough day 👊🏼🍻

[@stevehogan8829]

Hey Billy, thanks to you and all the others too. Love seeing you guys.

[@wadewilson4626]

Happy Thanksgiving A great treat while waiting on the Traeger I would like to ask for prayers for my mother she has COVID and is battling on a vent right now she needs them Always enjoy your videos Scott

[@bear4482]

You got it brother ❗🙏 I praying my mother won't get it she is in bad health already, asking for the same ❗❤️🙏

[@johndedrick4619]

[@BassGeek]

[@krisprapids3886]

[@FishinWithEli]

Nice video scott always a joy to watch your videos

[@coryphelps8244]

Lets go scott!!! U can do it!!!!

[@rogbass]

Great video. Amazing insight into the lives of pro bass fishermen on the road. Nothing else like this online or on tv. Scott I’ve gone through a lot of your videos and of course watched your dad for a long time and we’re all blessed to have you and your family giving it all you got to help us become better fishermen and women. No matter how you finish in tourneys your already in the hearts and tackle boxes of millions of people. We will all do the praying you just have fun and fish brother. Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽

[@paulb351]

2020 hasn't been great for most of us. Your videos have kept me modivated to get out there & fish. You're actually the first person i subscribed to on KZbin You'll figure it out 2021 WILL be better! Good luck

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

That’s awesome! Thanks for the support!

[@johnnielarge5506]

Good luck on Lay Lake and that Trokar hoodie looks sharp.

[@jamesharth7198]

Keep ur head up scott.. ur a great angler and jus keep on fighting trust ur instincts and lean on ur experience and u will do fine buddy. Good luck and good bless.😃🚤😎🎣😉🍻

[@mywayoflifeoutdoors.1182]

The only pro I follow! If it wasn't for your vids during our winters, I'd probably lose my mind.

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

👊🏼

[@TheJacobb46]

Scott never loose the faith you got this buddy

[@hbfishing9456]

really enjoy the vlogs/fishing videos.

[@ctsnider88]

Damn Upshaw. 3 fish wow! Looks like me fishing. 24lbs WTF! God i miss the conversation between days. Billy u got this. Amen

[@parrotbill9072]

One thing about the weatherman is he is usually 50% right. Better odds than the newsman these days. If the news doesnt have any stories, they make it up. The weatherman doesn't make things up, they just make mistakes.

[@allergictoglobalists]

Haha..so true.

[@ifishcatfish]

So sorry bro. I'm always rooting for u. Sometimes u need some luck too. Today i got completely confused and drove the boat the wrong way, away from the ramp, instead of toward the ramp. When i was turning around i saw a huge school on the fish finder. It was getting dark but i started casting and got my 15 fish limit in 30 mins. Better lucky than good.

[@xseaofgreen420x]

So frustrating man, i can’t even imagine. Tough, tough fishing. Sometimes it just don’t come together. But hell yeah, it ain’t for lack of trying. That’s for sure.

[@FishingDohaR]

Very nice! Is that a keeper my friend? Great video 👍👍

[@jessedyer1449]

Love your videos man. Hope to be as good as you someday!

[@CMDAVISs]

Man this looked really tough but I know that scott, Todd , all of them can make it happen. Great guys and can't wait to see them in the elites. Love the videos man keep it up!!

[@jamesmims5850]

Texas is tough this time of year. Spent 4 days on the water over thanksgiving weekend. 1 ten pound bowfin on Rayburn and a 13 inch bass. Fished Toledo next 3 days. 21 bass biggest 3 pounds but only 7 leagals

[@BassRaider]

Keep at it Scott! On to the next one!

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

👊🏼

[@BassRaider]

Frikin love the tournament vids dude. I feel the fire burning inside, love it! Can’t wait for the next one!

[@legionssb]

I don’t watch too many tourney vids, but I gotta say, this one was one of the best, just caught my first white bass, a 17 in 3 1/2 Ib fish from a kayak, one of the most hectic fights I’ve ever had. The biggest white bass was 4 1/2 Ibs and 18.5 inches long so I just caught a fish worth noting on one of the toughest days I’ve ever fished. I also caught a freak of nature bass bluegill hybrid... wonder how that happened lol

[@fishhubbd]

Excellent

[@danedrippy2k996]

Happy thanks giving Scott, hope you have a nice day and I hope you win the next fishing tournament keep posting bangers🔥

[@packerfan8374]

That is a really cool and beautiful house

[@treypayne43]

I’m late but never miss god bless Scott 🎣👍 and happy Thanksgiving brother we love ya

[@benniemaxwell2869]

Man that was tough to watch Scott. Don’t let it get you down man. Your one of the best Bass fisherman in the world. Remember, there’s no such thing as a bad day. Only a good day of learning

[@st.claireric4587]

Its all Good get the bad derb out of the way your in perfect position in the Eastern Division ..Now go get that Elite spot at Lay Lake we all know your gonna do it !!!!

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

👊🏼

[@OMGMOTO]

"its time to shake off those bed bugs'" lol

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

😂

[@cotyhiggins]

Even after all these years of competition you can see you still got the fire. It’s fishing brother if it was easy they’d call it catching keep your head up and go finish strong.

[@LunkerswithLandon]

Man I wish that I can be were u are one day Scott. I’m fishing tournaments now at 15 years old and I got a KZbin channel. I’m just tryna get my name out there in the fishing world and get experience fishing tourneys so when I’m old enough I’ll be able to fish in the bassmaster series. Another great video scott. Keep up the good work and I wish you good luck and I hope you qualify. God bless you and your family and happy thanksgiving.

[@midalabamabassintv]

Don’t worry man, it happens. It’s a tuff time of year with changing conditions for the fish you have to adapt and it can’t never stay the same. Hope to see you at lay next week man. Happy to help cause that’s my home lake.

[@Dbrockjohnson]

Getting caught up on my SMC VIDEOS MAN, best channel on KZbin

[@tusinama3571]

Hey keep it up! Thank you for motivating me to enjoy fishing the way I do.

[@tylerdonaldson1781]

Sorry, it was obviously super tough. Have a great Thanksgiving with your family. Thanks for sharing the super tough tourney!

[@tjdavis56]

This may be a mean way to look at it, but I love seeing the pros struggle like this. Makes me feel better about myself lol

[@3516carr]

To see all the places you are fishing and them be the same spots I fish on lewisville. It’s a tough lake. But she holds some giants. My pb is from lewisville.

[@davidalley7270]

It happens to pros and weekend warriors like myself. Yesterday I caught one 14" bass. Missed one around 5+, and caught a duck! Love your videos Scott, wish I would have been at Fun and Sun when you showed up....

[@linetherapyfishing]

Hope you have a great Thanksgiving with your family. Recharge the positive energy get rid of the negative. Love the content. I always look forward to watching your videos.

[@chrish9430]

That's some tough fishing!

[@shellysfishingadventures6932]

Hi scoot you in spired me so Much to start bass fishing and I just wanted to tell you you are my favorite and keep up with the good videos

[@jamesw5836]

I know this isn't a popular opinion but I like these tough fall tournaments. I have always thought they should spread out the year so that everyone has a shot, not just the good spring fisherman. For sure it makes the opens more competitive. The elites have also been more interesting for me. I hope both organizations keep using the entire year for scheduling.

[@bradleyhays7907]

Happy Thanksgiving! This is way better than the Macy's parade!

[@ethaneveler6562]

I was really hoping for you to get more big fish I thought for sure you would get like 5 big ones but that one fish that you caught weighed pretty good for one fish but good luck in the next tournament that you go on you half to get some good luck. And Billy was so funny when he was waking everyone up and he really loves his mayonnaise. 🤣😂

[@ghostpbz]

Keep up the grind brother I believe in you. Love the videos too really cool to see

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Thanks bro!! If everyone will share it..it will grow fast.

[@sstig13]

About as tough as Ray Roberts was in August for the kayak tournament we had there. Prefished 2 times and had one keeper size for our cpr events its 12” minimum. Come tournament day I had 2 fish and it was good enough for 6th place. Looks like a lot of people struggled and Lewisville sucks except during the springtime.

[@bentleypauli1806]

I got a taste of that this past sunday, my home lake that i know pretty well, didn't have the best practice day trying new spots but lucky i did find something new cause 3 of my 5 came from there, kinda a small lake and with 30 boats it was hard to fish some of my spots, i had a limit at 10, i had 5 fish for 5.5lbs, it was tough and definitely a punch in the stomach, 12.5 won smh
