The Curse of the Cut - Bassmaster Elite Sabine River Day 3 - Unfinished Family Business Ep.21 (4K)

[@Lori_M]

I found your channel by chance a few weeks ago, and I've been binge-watching past episodes. I grew up watching your Pops (and Jimmy Houston), Scott. My own father loved to fish, and for my 30th birthday, my father took me on a fishing trip to Lake Fork with a friend of his who was a guide there. It was a glorious day spent with my Daddy, doing something we both loved at a lake filled with fantastic fish. Admittedly, I didn't catch anything (oh well), but my dad and the guide caught some gorgeous bass. I'm 56 years old now, and haven't fished in many decades. My Daddy is in his 80s now and his fishing days are over, sadly, thanks to the beginnings of dementia. But I treasure my memories of fishing with my Daddy and the time we spent together. I can't wait for the tournament at Lake Fork! Maybe I'll try to make it out there for one of the days (I live in the Dallas area). God bless you, Scott. I'm so happy I found your channel and can experience the love of fishing again through your videos.

Dude, your going to win at lake fork. The sabine is just a big creek. You got this.

[@adamsmith3996]

When Scott probably feels like just getting far away from the sabine river. NOPE . He stays and spends time with all his fans. That says alot about him.

[@TheFishdoctor1952]

If Scott hadn't got a 10k check, he would have really wanted to get as far away from the Sabine as possible.

I could see that you were upset Scott, and I would’ve been upset too. I hate that things didn’t go your way on day 3, but seeing ALL those young guys and fisherman coming straight to your boat when you got back, because YOU are the reason that they were there, you’ve got a lot of people into this sport and get people excited about fishing everyday. You’re winning everyday in my book brother. Keep up the great work!

[@traestuart384]

You're so right! I've had the privilege of being at several tournaments, including a classic. I even marshalled once. (That was enough cause it's hard to not fish!) Some of the guys I really liked are just sore losers! I see em all jolly on camera winning but when they're down they're just jerks! It's good to see people like Scott in the sport. I don't buy products with the "winners" face on it. I buy the one with the face of a good sport on it.

[@greyghost293]

[@RadReelingFishing]

It's a tough day when Scott only catches 4 fish to weigh in. The side bet is an awesome idea. I'd definitely consider a ten dollar bill signed by Scott a trophy. Thanks for bringing us along.

Best of fishing to you Scott, been watching a long time. You and your dad are genuine fishermen in the industry. Both of you share your knowledge with the average fishermen, tournament fishers and the everyday fishermen for the enjoyment of just trying to out smart the green sides. Hang in there Scott your days are coming and you will bring home the trophy your dad fished long and hard for many years. By the way, McCoy needs a raise! Awesome videos and the music right on! Very relaxing and enjoyable!

Scott, as you already know, Sabine river, that close to the gulf is a major pain to fish. Not only are you fighting little to no cover to hold fish, no major underwater shelving, now you get to fight tidal response from the fish. It's all good, that was yesterday, Lake Fork is a major bass fishery, Good luck and keep having fun.

[@foggybottombbq2738]

Awesome to see you spend the time with the kids even after the tough day. Great to see people getting back out and normal. Congrats on the cut

[@MiamiMattOutdoors]

As a former baseball player. Very cool that there are unwritten rules in bass fishing. Very respectful of you to follow them. You should make a Top 3 or Top 5 or a whole video on unwritten rules of bass fishing. Would help many people.

[@davidswaim8244]

Its amazing how the wind play's with fishery's in this part of the country. Being in Oklahoma it starts getting over 5 mph and its a hunting misson for the rest of the day.

[@TJ_Loves2fish]

I laughed so hard at "It's all fun and games until you get a prop bait in the forehead." I feel like I think some version of that every time I go fishing.

I was hoping someone else laughed at that

Hey Scott, when you fish Fork, check out coffee creek if you can. I caught some nice one's along the bank line over across from the boat ramp there during a kayak tournament there last year. That creek is a special spot.

Thanks for the composure pep talk. Bass fishing is my nfl, nba, and nascar. Specifically, B.A.S.S. elite series is pretty much the only sport I keep up with. I've been to a handful of the tournaments and met all the pros I've "fan boy'd" over. There are some I refuse to look at anymore because they lack composure. If their face is on the craws I want I'll get a different brand. Everyone's gonna have a bad day but I'm not an ass to people who look up to me. Anyway, I look forward to getting my lucky hat signed by ya one day. Thanks for the videos. 👍
