[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Hey y’all Santee is finally up. Do me a solid and share this video out to your people. Thanks so much!

[@acenastyninja]

Sharing the video now! I live on Guntersville lake and can’t wait to see y’all back up this way soon! Would you happen to have any old fishing rods and reels or tackle you would like to sale? I need some good poles to start off with.

[@JasonSullivanBigBass]

I'm go share it Scott. Dude you are dialed in here goes day two I'm ready. I know a lot of people tell you things good but if I had to tell you something good I would say keep your head up and Keep God in your heart and mind brother you are an amazing person and you have a awesome family that really loves you. Go show the Elite what you can do . Keep catching them biggens

[@jessebrock7574]

I just picked up some bandito bugs the other day black n blue all the way. Wish I had endless supply of googan baits. Lol thanks Scott for sharing the awesome fishing content

[@russellwatters5891]

Consider it did..lol 😂😅

[@codyallen3156]

23:46 ❤the BAMA swag!

[@beasting1983]

12:45 is why I really like Scott. He threw his rod down to help his co-angler with the landing of his fish.

[@bridgelaurie9490]

Bro if folks don’t know by now Scott genuinely just loves fishing. If he wasn’t on the pro tour and was a regular joe he’d 100% be fishing in jon boat tournaments and kayak tournaments just to get to fish more lol

[@JohnSmith-kz1ll]

You have such a good attitude even with the co anglers on board getting biggins. True sportsmanship

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Kieth crushed it!

[@michaelthompson2782]

Scott Martin you are an inspiration to watch. You are so humble with all this success. You deserve everything coming your way!!!

[@fleminj2pa]

You’re making it fun viewing this year, Scott. It’s amazing how smooth and productive you fish when you’re relaxed and having fun.

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Glad you enjoy! Thanks for the words 👍🏼

[@billfrench4181]

27:15 This statement/ analogy hit home with me, and is exactly why I fish! Genuinely said... keep laying the stick to them Scott & God Bless brother!

[@johnbunje9054]

Bandido bug. Man, you should get some kind of award for Designing the best bait ever.🔥

[@TankWilliams__Jr]

Protect this man at all costs. Scottie you’re a legend!!!!

[@markfulwood7415]

So good to see you back to Hammerin' em again Scott... you're back to that intensely focused, fish catching machine... all while delivering the content that we love. Funny, great friends, vast knowledge... thanks brother, and God bless ya'll...

[@bigr2dog]

Love to see you having fun doing what you love

[@butchdarak7622]

It only takes about 5 minutes to see that Scott was definitely brought up the right way. Scott have more and more success, your so easy to root for!

[@Floridaangler354]

I see Scott Martin and " catching giant bass" and immediately watch!

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Thanks bro!! 🤙🏼

[@ctekken3536]

So awesome how you offered to help Keith. I'm sure he had a great time. Best of luck man.

[@CAN43725]

Scott, I like how you treat your co-anglers and the younger fans, or all fans for that matter. You are a positive influence on the next generation. We need more people like you.

[@robertgallacher7214]

That was a great watch, loved the top water fish, can't beat that surface explosion and the reaction to the first fish on day two was priceless. Great to see you right on it this season after all the hard work you put in, got my fingers crossed for an Elite win for you this year.

[@dustinjohnson7433]

Love watching your videos sir. Huge fan of you and your family.

[@dustinyoder1212]

Another podium win for the best out there. Let’s freaking gooo!!!

[@benjaminhurmx]

I wanna co-angler with Scott (Hollywood) Martin!!!!

[@lannyluckyj3227]

I love the sound the line makes when it's screaming with big Bass on it!

[@alexalcaraz1286]

So happy to see you do good this year!!! It’s been a while coming ! This is your year!

[@danperry1415]

Great production. Scott is always exciting to watch, the boy can catch a fish.

[@shanebridges4388]

Awesome , keep ‘em coming!

[@jameswhittington2318]

Scott, do you have the best attitude towards your co-movement I’ve ever seen. I’ve been watching you a long time and I really love it. You represent Christ first and foremost! I thank you for that. I also thank you for being such a good example

[@paulb351]

WOW Great job showing them how it done!

[@OfftheHookOutdoors99]

Love these series videos👍

[@joeweber1575]

[@joee681]

Great Job again, making good decisions !!👍

[@maclamond]

Such a great video. Huge fan Scott.

[@stacenhartland9777]

Awesome couple of days!

[@JR-ho5qm]

I really enjoyed this one! Good fishing pal! Your on!

[@Xebadir]

Scott, great video as always, and absolutely cutting it up at the opens this year! Can't help but think this has alot to do with you sticking to your game as you said in your travel breakdown (like the way you fish the northern lakes in the series). It also seems to be sticking to your game (and not listening to Arey and Canterbury) with lakes you've seen before - thinking as you log a few more in the elite series you'll dial in on your game, and what you need to hoist the blue trophy. Keep this season rolling and these great videos coming!

[@BassRaider]

Awesome job Scott!

[@mitchellportee150]

I've never really been a boat fisher ,but I could only imagine all the things dude learning just by being with you . this is awesome

[@cajunfilipino6645]

Nothing more fun than fishing for bass on the bed. God Bless

[@denisgoulding4004]

Amazing fishing, well done

[@cgfishingandoutdoors9336]

Proud of you Scott keep up the good work buddy

[@WoodsandWater72]

[@tresamigosoutdoors1010]

Scott you’re awesome man!! To see how you do with go anglers just proves what kind of person you are! Keep doing you man! One of my all Time favorite anglers

[@jhelayel1440]

I swear the intros to your videos are always the best. I'm sitting up here in CT just waiting for the weather to warm up so I can get out there. The intros and the just watching your videos scott just get me excited for the upcoming fishing season. Shout out to Macoy and thanks for another amazing video.

[@brentbloom79]

Get out there now. Our northern strain largemouth are the fattest they’ll be all year long. In other words our 3.5lbers are 5lbs right now. And our 5.5lbers are 7lbs!!!!! Go bet one

[@byronhendrixfishing8393]

Insane no one there when you pulled up 🤯

[@ccfishing3166]

[@dawnparker2014]

[@AllenDochod]

and it's martin with the mic I mean rod drop lol

[@roberthudspeth9896]

Y’all having to much fun

[@dprob1985]

I always enjoy watching a fisherman fish shallow off the grass and not just ffs deep water, shaking a minow.

[@yvlopez77]

Is that wappoooo, kaboom or knock but the bug is the drug!!!! Banditooooo all day!

[@RCL1]

Good God O mighty at the Boats!

[@nicholasmarks8770]

[@thegiant573]

As good as you are fishing in the Opens , the boys are on point with the edits and overly dramatic music! Keep it up team Martin!

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Thanks 👏🏼

[@russellwatters5891]

Obviously I think ya'll are awesome fishermen, but you showed the side of sportsman that I know you are. Offering to help your rider angler land his fish, 😊❤. You're the man! Thats the type pro we need out there, for the up coming youth to see and respect. Love what ya'll are doing ❤

[@keythshockley3279]

Great couple days of some massive pigs 🐖 Great job Scott your have been killing it this season so far keep up the good work 😮😊

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Appreciate it!! 🤙🏼

[@codyjames3570]

Positively great fishing from a consummate gentleman. I hope to see you the final installment because I think it would take a 32 lb bag and you can do it. Appreciate the 💧 and stay blessed 🙏🏼 🤙🏼🇺🇲🤙🏼

[@erinzabolotney694]

My dad and I are from Indiana, we went down to Santee the week of this tournament for a fun fishing getaway. We found this spot on Wednesday, the day before day 1 for Scott and the other anglers. Saw a lot of fish but only caught one dink back in this cove (by the flipped pontoon!). You’re a hammer dude we fished our butts off back there for one dink! Great job

[@fishingmontana1564]

These videos are the best advertising for your baits lol

[@jameslovelace8958]

Man Keith is lucky 🍀! I’d give my right nad to fish with Scott.
