Team SMC hope y’all enjoyed it..Do us a huge solid and SHARE this video. Thank you so much for all of the support! 20/20 is next..

[@garylukas3476]

Champlain i prayed about it .

[@bobsmith1841]

Dude you guys are AWESOME!!

[@southerndeplorable5864]

Hey Scott, whats the odds of getting my hands on some of them white bandito bugs? i know you said yo had them poured just for this tourney, but i'd kill to get a pack. i would even pay double !!!!!!!!!!!

[@Donald_Turnip]

No fish finders not working well? Doesn't look like you're scanning much...

[@toxic_wolf9047]

How did you go pro

[@PUTEMDOWNProductions]

Yall need to get Dudley in the house! would love to see all the pranks!

[@Kaleena43]

I'm 100% convinced that Scott's drag setting on his spinning reel is the reason he loses so many... and I think it's because it's so loose that he doesn't get the hook buried on the hookset...

[@jettharris3201]

Gary and his dogs, gotta love it.

[@bobwitt4939]

Cox is the best shallow water bass fisherman going today. He knows how to catch the big girls up along the bank.

[@jaykin7757]

You are one of the greats were I can watch your videos more then once.

[@boostedassasins]

Let’s get a 10000 likes for the most consistent fisherman the past three years!!!

[@RideFaster]

This is his job....

[@boostedassasins]

I See You , well yeah it’s his job. We watch his videos we all know this by now. But he has been very consistent the past three years. It’s been unbelievable. At this level it’s very very hard to be consistent when everyone is good. I fish the costa series events and they are hard. Couldn’t even imagine on his level

[@corykent7]

OH YEAH! Best bass fishing videos on KZbin! Hell, better than nationally televised programs!

[@gageparra2917]

Definitely

Cory Kent : love any support for my new fishing channel.

not complaining scott but i wish you would put the closed caption back in . im almost deaf. i would appreciate it

jim mcdonald you could always enable it

[@bradliston8990]

There is a cog wheel on the bottom right area of the video, you can enable the CC from there.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Billy, you were so polite on the wakeup😂. Did Scott really sleep in his jersey or was that a setup lol. I think it was real

[@TNKgamingjbdubv]

I don't care if its the 50th day i always wake up excited to go fishing

[@jonreel403]

I subscribed to you, could you help a small fishing channel out. Thank you.

[@traviswells8180]

Your an inspiration for a lot of guys out here.

[@SwampBoyz48]

I watch SMC videos everyday. Enjoy watching you guys fish. I’ve fished all my life and I will say I’m still learning new stuff. Thank y’all for the videos. Keep it up SMC Good luck this year.

[@adamsmith8533]

Ok Scott it's official. YOUR UP for the win on Champlain.

[@girthyfupa8251]

Alright, Billy waking everyone up had me laughing pretty good!

[@graysonor5941]

Was hilarious

[@chazhonaker2754]

Im curious to see the 20/20, my self and im sure many others aswell really like to hear what you may have done differnt after having watched you fish it.. (Knowledge Is Power)

[@corykent7]

chaz honaker : defiantly a cool perspective, to see how a real pro evaluates, and adapts after the fact. Talk about educational!!

[@brandonreynolds4272]

I will most definitely share this for you. I really enjoy your channel. Full of energy and enthusiasm.

[@tylermoran9310]

Billy is a Saint for the early morning wake up calls 🤙🏼

[@Cfh15015]

Scott, Brandon or whoever reads this, I’m not sure if this is of concern but none of your ads played... I understand you all have to make a living so I watch every ad without skipping. When the scroll bar came to the adds it literally went through them without playing. Even left the yellow ad tab on the tracker/time bar.

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

Thanks for the heads up I’ll check on it...👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Cfh15015]

Scott Martin for sure

[@IlliniDog01]

AOY Race is going to be exciting. Good Luck to team SMC

Total Banger great upload scott.

[@zachburger7126]

Great video love watching you and your ol mans for new tip from fishing from the bank in the spring. Right now water is way cold still

[@jtee9548]

Yeah, ten grand, that'll make Scott a happier camper. Well done. Still in the top 5 for angler of the year. Maybe he should try a blue Mepps spinner next time.

[@HB-CREEKER443]

This video had me laughing so hard. I don’t who the guy was acting in the opening , but it was comical. Great stuff. Wake up boys

[@newmennium]

"I've got a funny feeling Cox is going to win this thing"

[@rickthomas3970]

Hey Scott..Enjoy the videos ...I live in Okeechobee ..Was in Clewiston today stopped by the marina awesome place .. If anyone visits south Florida a must see...

[@pickleville2228]

Scott, what’s it gonna take for you to take AOY? You’re my pick for the final stop, Lake Champlain.

[@AndrewBrown-gb6xn]

Scott you need to bring back “WE GOTS TO GO”! If you make a shirt with that saying I’ll buy!

[@victorremick9721]

PRODUCTION WAS GREAT. VERY GOOD VIDEO THANKS

[@RecklessSavage]

love the anger

[@njgl2010]

My wife said that I could NOT tv fish bc your "fit" would be tame in comparison to what I do lol. She said I would either shoot the fishfinder with the flare gun or throw all my rods in the water and go home. I shoulda knew that I needed to ask her how I should do it first, that's my mistake! You're a human, and you always ask for Forgiveness, that's why you're cool! Love your channel!

[@jamesh9770]

Hope you win the cup this year and angler of the year.

[@AllenOutdoors868]

Great job!!

[@granthuffstetler8594]

Love the baby face Scott

[@jtee9548]

Holy Moly, he still hasn't tightened the drag on that spinning rod setup. You can hear it pulling drag when he sets the hook & intermittently as he reels in.

[@Antznewz]

I know from awful firsthand experience that having your drag even a tick too tight can lose you big fish in a tournament.

[@anthonycope8637]

If u watch b lat he is always playing with his its set real light and he cranks it up a bit once the fish is on

[@stevieflorian1996]

love vids keep up the good work!!

[@ScottMartinChallenge]

👊🏼

[@timwheaton7785]

Scott your a people's Champion regardless! One year soon the Chicks will be your year ! Congrats my friend on getting a check!!

[@SammyBenitez]

Was out there for the whole event fishing. Every time we decided to go flipping in the shallows we would run into John Cox. Made us feel like we were fishing in the right spots. Lol. The bite was tough, unless you stayed very shallow. It was a good lake, all the dink’s were almost 2lbs which is decent where I normally fish. We were rooting for you, but glad someone from the SMC crew took the win!

[@KillenNReelinoutdoors]

Need to have everyone do boat tours, ide be very interested in that.

[@garylukas3476]

Go win Champlain. AOY. Ding!!

[@lilygosfishing8471]

Scott when I grow up I’m going to be pro bass angler Like you😊

[@evaniannucci705]

[@RustyWells2]

You notice Scott got back on track when he picked up the spinning rod!

[@thaplugtv6189]

Awesome video Scott

[@crottycat]

hey man, i love your videos, do you by chance have a video where you go over set-ups? I'm looking to bring more rods out with different lines/set-ups and im kind of lost. I've never used a bait caster before but i would like to

[@1979jwm32]

Yup!

[@rhyscooper6023]

It would be real interesting to know how this effects the spawning numbers.

[@Reefaman1]

Ya I didn't think they would be taking fish off beds...every fish off its bed there goes a lot of eggs....

[@freeyourmindtc]

It hurts a lot. When the females gone the males come in and just wipe out the bed and these guys do it all the time. They don't care, as long as they get a check.

[@nickcrum9124]

freeyourmindtc you wouldn’t care if you were making thousands for it.

Good stuff from what I watched. ::)) Happy Fishing

[@76bluefl]

Thanks Scott. I enjoyed the video but where was the footage of B-Lat. I want to see all the SMC team members.

[@mikewest712]

B lat didnt have a tape in.

[@XDMStranger]

B Lat has his own channel and has been posting tourney vlogs there.

[@76bluefl]

@@XDMStranger Yeah, I watch B-Lat's videos and vlogs. It's just that I like seeing him as part of the SMC team.

[@jasonmims5493]

He didn't put the tape in for SMC. Cause he was mad about them putting the inline spinner on his line. Lol.

[@madmattfishing]

Dropping the heat!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@thomasanderson1783]

Cox is bad but you are the king and remember that! Aoy is yours and this next tournament! Smallies are your new game! Get scottie! Btw, love tom also and he needs a top 10!🐟🐟🐟

A guide flew off the rod?

[@olinzuzu7226]

When did you switch to favorite rods? They are the best imo but dont you have your own line of okumas?

[@cgkruger3917]

Scott man chill out youre still the man ....and I will always look up to you ....one day I will get your signature on my hat when you are winning the next big tournament .....all the way from South Africa heads up.👌👊

[@Kylewatchesstuff]

Champlain is going to be a fun tournament to watch with 3 heavyweights battling for AOY, good luck!

[@elsey6885]

Im curious can you whip out a fly rod on these tournaments

[@jordanmaltaner9441]

Hey Scott, watching a lot of your videos and have noticed ALL the fish you miss!! Could it be that the Trokar hooks are creating too big of a hole upon hook set do to being really sharp?

[@noahharvey2320]

Jordan Maltaner 😂

[@catchemmatcham]

Puttin in work bud keep it up

[@speed__7723]

Doing good Scott keep it up

[@jonreel403]

I subscribed to you, could you help a small fishing channel out. Thank you.

[@a.l.gilley7839]

When my mom taught me to fish, and she was awesome, she told me to stay relaxed, have fun, don't let the fish feel the stress. I never understood that until I was older. But then when I found myself so uptight for wanting to catch them, I started relaxing more and I would start catching them. I still don't understand why, but I just know that my Mom had that touch and I am grateful she helped me like she did. Over and over she would say, don't stress the fish with your stress, don't make the fish angry because you're angry, relax, enjoy, and the fish will start to enjoy it with you. ( And " Keep off my fishing spot, or you won't be able to sit down for a week." lol) Her dad, my grandpa Stewart, he taught her, and in his day, he was hard to beat. Course, he didn't fish tournaments like you all do, just personal bets, etc. But he had fun ( too much fun according to grandma) and always came home with some big bass, or whatever he was fishing for. Helped to feed the family of 11!

[@Weekendairsoftwrrior]

When you stress out that is when you start making mistakes. Start setting the hook too early, tie your knots too fast, and many other things.

[@marksexton4860]

We are human don't beat yourself up you are awsome fisherman or you wouldn't be where you are I know it makes you get down on yourself been there done that got to let it go but I know you can you the man

[@StutteRx]

Also Scott what is the name of the open rod you use with the yellow fishing string. I like it alot.

[@dmsndy]

Hey Scott, when are you coming back to Eufaula Alabama? I have a great idea for a video : teaching beginners to fish. I’ve lived here my whole life and have never been bass fishing. Please come teach me how to bass fish. When I tell people where I’m from they ask me about fishing and I get a crazy look from them when I tell them I don’t do much fishing.

[@Antznewz]

gotta say I never could have convinced myself to leave a 10 pounder on a bed in a tournament. good self restraint.

[@thomasgarren9571]

i have a feeling he didnt want anybody else knowing it was there. When that man started talking to him he pulled up. Almost Gurantee he was gonna hit it again at some point

[@billycockream6809]

You must have just got done fishing right before i got there lmao good to actually meet ya

[@JuniorB86]

Dang, so its legit. Everyone that stays with you is winning a tournament. Well except Tom lol but I have a feeling you're going to win the FWC this year.

Hate that you didn’t make the cut, but you’re still in the hunt for angler of the year. And I don’t mean to sound negative, but things just haven’t been the same since you switched rods. The missed fish are concerning. Love your videos Mr Martin. The next stop on the tour is all yours!
