Where Is The Fishing Industry Going?? (Travel Vlog Q&A)

Headed up to Dale Hollow for Stage 3 of the BPT. Looking to bounce back from Redcrest and get some good points this week. Going to be interesting how it plays out.
Thanks for all the people who sent in some questions for the travel vlog. We are going to keep doing these on the travel vlogs for each tournament. Thanks for the support!

Where Is The Fishing Industry Going?? (Travel Vlog Q&A)

[@heathwallace7782]

Your attitude is always on point man I love it. I watch this junk at work on the road and before bed…what a time to be alive if you love bass fishing. My old lady makes fun of me for watching fishing videos after fishing all day…😂

[@derrickhouse7063]

Keep up the good work Colin. Just know you are appreciated.

[@shawnhebert8104]

Class Act I appreciate all you guys. I watch all yalls videos.

[@stevekuney2541]

It was great to meet you today Mark !!

[@seandeswilliams7516]

I am a sophomore 16 years old and I attend CE Byrd High School I love bass fishing and fishing in general. I want to join the bass fishing team but my mom won't let me join because there are no black kids on the team. This is all the more reason I want to join I would love to be a professional fisherman like you. Fishing is the reason I would ever consider going to college I don't know what to do because I'm willing to commit I just currently don't know how to convince my mom. We just got a boat because of how much I love fishing and I do not want to seem ungrateful but this is my dream I don't have any gear but I am willing to work. You are a big inspiration for who I want to grow up to be as a person. AND THANKS FOR THE VIDEOS!!!!!

[@zeppelin1n4]

Send it!!!

[@db9818]

Join the team if you have the chance. If you don’t you’ll always wonder what could’ve been, and when you join there will be a black kid on the team😉

[@johnnysaechao6218]

Don’t have that regret later on in live bro! Go all in and chase that dream u got! I’m sure your mom will be ur #1 supporter

[@seandeswilliams7516]

@@db9818 Thanks sm

[@ronaldbryant8457]

I drive a truck all over the US and you are right about the ATL......but Dallas/Ft Worth is just as bad.....no matter the time of day, TRAFFIC!!

[@cross_fire_]

I got to meet you at redcrest, you signed my son’s hat. He’s had it on since the tournament! He’s sitting here watching this video with me! Good luck brother!

[@CajunRobFishing]

Great video Mark! Electric Blue Chartreuse Keitechs are the hot local color there 👍

[@chrisg2619]

That song would be final countdown by Europe good luck man and tightlines.

[@ericneedham3136]

Glad to see you at the Classic! I hope you give that glide I gave ya a chance! One of the most down to earth professional fisherman I have met! -Versatile Baits 🤜🤛

[@kewlboss]

Recently started following, really enjoy your vids. I been going back watching all the old vids as well. Great channel Mark!

[@JasonSullivanBigBass]

Well I appreciate your work and Collin. You guys make the day better when a video drops.

[@motorcycleislife8296]

Those keitech swimbaits were killer last year, now they are done for lol

[@isaacpolley2728]

You should roll up with a 55” tv strapped to the front of your boat. 😂

[@kevinross9852]

I enjoy watching you and the guys on KZbin I can't wait to see you guys Saturday and Sunday at Dale hollow

[@FishingJN_7]

MDJ is by far one of the coolest professional anglers on and off the water.

[@fromtheedge2theledge]

Awesome job....Excellent video Thanks for shouting out North Carolina..

[@AnglinwithInglis]

Go get em Mark !

[@kylevodden19]

The technology doesn’t care. Work harder and get better. Good job mDj awesome video good opinions

[@mdub1230]

Those Peanut butter M&M Smack! 😂

[@youngchristopher14]

Preach!

[@christianhurtado6095]

MDJ was out control! This is why we watch we love you no matter what up Downs we don’t care we just want to see and be a little part of your life.

[@DBCOOPER79]

i have an idea for your rate the bait show, how about yall do a favorite and least favorite knot and the types of fishing line yall like to use and not use with them. your positivity is awesome i love watching your videos and listening to you talk about fishing.

[@db9818]

I believe they did the knot one a while back

[@karstonmiller3989]

my guy hit that dance 🤣

[@andreaseichmann-qu5zx]

My guy i love the battleship, gotta hit those boys with them Left Coast big guns!!! Haha. Love the content as always n keep movin forward bud, only option we got!

[@user-fd5lp8wo6z]

Are y’all going to do the flip cup challenge this season? Love it so funny. Fish on🎣

[@isobozo]

Peanut butter M&M are fire, but I'll have to grab the pineapple over cantaloupe. I grew up fishing Jordan lake in NC. Now I bounce between Guntersville, Wheeler, and Tims Ford.

[@user-tv5es9qw6g]

You’ve got the best cameraman in the entire industry

[@tranzformedyouthtn]

Chattanooga traffic is bad as well. A friend of mine calls it the devil’s elbow lol. Good luck.

[@tavaris8466]

Your right on about Upstate NY we got em up here I miss ya at Seneca lake last year wanted to say what’s up seen your boat flying around out there, I did get to meet DC and made his vlog tho so it’s all good 👍🏾 keep reeling them in Big Dawg your time is coming

[@dipster14]

Love the content win, lose, good, or bad. The laughs and the squad is what really makes these videos. Here me out Mark.. You, DC, Jacob, and Adrian should make a fishing lure brand of y'all own. I KNOW Y'ALL CAN MAKE A KILLER LURE SELECTION AND MAKE MONEY

[@chasesimmons6451]

I love all the boys, but MDJ is the best personality and fits this raw-style “vlogging” the best.

[@RodWynnFishing]

Great content as always! Also love how no matter where you been and how long you been gone from Cali, you still one of dem ones .. ✊🏾

[@publicEnima]

dang, same some bait for the rest of us!

[@MichaelSypolt]

That was amazing hearing that about New York man, I’m from central NY (Poland) and my boss owns 1000 islands marina between Clayton and cape Vincent and that river is a very special place for giant smallies love watching you Adrian, DC, and JW’s throughout the season best of luck!!

[@sammo8556]

👊🏾Great content. Shout out camera crew.

[@albertsmith792]

Just started watching your vids, and good job. I just wanted to say I am a Florida boy and have been fishing for 40 years. That being said, I could not imagine if I could not fish the way I want to fish in a tournament(flipping, frogging, swim jigging, etc.) because I thought I couldn't compete with the offshore fishing. I genuinely feel bad for a lot of you professional fisherman who are being forced to adapt to this not so new technique that is taking over. Once again thanks for the content. Your vids are entertaining and give me something to watch, being that I don't watch tournament fishing anymore. God bless, and good luck to you.

[@michaelbailey91]

MDJ, I will be watching you on live and praying that you will make it to the championship round. 🙏🎣🦆

[@brandonshell2512]

I live near and fish watts bar all of the time. July til October super tough. The bass are everywhere and Nowhere at the same time. Certainly don't group up like they do on chickamauga. If you find a 20 fish school, you've hit the jackpot.

[@robertbarnett822]

Enjoyed the Vlog

[@Bnicebassfish]

There’s 3 things I route for. Tiger, the Lakers and MDJ. Hoping one of those things can get me a chip this year. Let’s go MDJ hold it down for the bay!

[@michaelcox-iw3zy]

Hope you get the win this week!

[@coachh2138]

YES SIR!!! On those peanut butter M&M's. Keep up the good work

[@williamdeel377]

Dale hollow is amazing me I love the jig on Dale

[@Mjones8383]

Its literally the final count-down😂

[@patrickpatterson8565]

Oneida lake in ny is another Great Lake that I love to fish all the time

[@brandonfurlow4486]

Love the videos MDJ! Keep them coming! Good info, and I really enjoy the rate the bait segments.

[@silverback5150]

Good catching up@ the classic

[@ErnestLangley-rr6cp]

Thank you for bringing us along and sharing. Saw you at the Classic, but couldn’t catch up to you tonight chat. Keep it reel!!!!

[@ciscoamaro2772]

Shout out Colin

[@StevoGFishing]

Great video bruh! Yeah man I’m in upstate new York and the fishing is amazing

[@dowey88]

[@goblue3090]

Another great upload. Keep them coming guys 😁

[@anthonymartin548]

Thanks MDJ!!! Good stuff 👍🏽🫡

[@byronhendrixfishing8393]

It was good talking with you again in the cafe before you flew out on day 3 at the classic.

[@justincausey5196]

Keep pumping them out Colin!!

[@PanhandleKid]

They did have em 😂

[@travishanson5512]

Nothing better than going tackle shopping. LOL

[@crankintanks2092]

Great video they like the spark shad down there for sure

[@prestonmire5509]

Awesome video

[@thequestforbigguns2008]

Bro I came down to see you guys on the "holler" fri. And missed you. You bounced with the quickness. I had some road snacks for you. Brett Is supposed to give them to you hate you didn't make the cut.

[@JeffreyLee63]

We love ya Mark!!

[@jesustorrez4520]

Keep up the great work

[@L9201Thomas]

The need to make an on the road mold you can just put clear coats of silicone to make the swim baits last longer

[@reedjr5281]

That song is from Rob and Big lol Fantasy Factory hahahaha love it

[@davidbaker1359]

Saw Bill Dance today, I use to live next to Bill he’s a good friend on mine.

[@patrickhill631]

MDJ!!! BRO.... Keitech 3.3 sexy shad. They were hitting so much I had to tap out.

[@jeremykey4563]

Surprised you didn’t call out Beaver Lake in Rogers, AR as least favorite though technically it was FLW that always went. It’s got a rap as being a finicky lake. I’ve been there and I loved it. Didn’t catch massive weight but the scenery is gorgeous and coming from Florida, catching spots on topwater in 100’ of water was wild to me.

[@dgroves85]

I appreciate BPS. We have Cabelas where I live. But my biggest complaint on BPS is that they never have the regional colors. Obviously some colors ie green pumpkin electric shad etc are pretty available everywhere. But there’s always been those local favorites that you just can’t find at BPS. Still appreciate them.

[@MooreFreshFishing]

Mark is legit Hilarious!!!😂 Jokes for days….

[@chrischrist7982]

Chris zal freeloader or 6th sense hangover swim baits! What's your choice ? Forward facing still sucks!

[@Mjones8383]

2.8 on a megabass okishira screwhead is phenomenal

[@kingallen916]

Haha, BPS does a good job keeping baits in stock. That is, until MDJ goes in and clears out entires pegs!! I do the same thing if I find some juice baits. Good luck on tour Mark, pulling for you from Cali

[@JasonSullivanBigBass]

FFS is the life now and I honestly like it can't afford it but I like it so keep it coming DC and JDub has proven it good luck on tourney

[@JasonSullivanBigBass]

My mom used to love bank fishing lol she never wanted to go in the boat but she loved it now she's in Heaven Amen . If I had to ask you a question I would ask what is your favorite Lake to fish Mark tournament style

[@dprob1985]

Mark even hints to the fact ffs isnt ideal. Much respect to a fisherman who loves real fishing at heart. He even apologizes when he has to go ffs. Luh ya mark.

[@thatfishingguy11b]

Me watching this from Atlanta 😮 me know he right 😂😂😂

[@tulsabassprofessor5009]

Bro I work at BPS and that peg is empty 😂. Back stock is definitely going to be needed soon! Great video again bro thanks for sharing

[@lancepoore3045]

Whatchu talkin bout? Those PB M&M's are a freakin super food!

[@floridabassedition9345]

Drive around stare at your screen until you see a fish and cast at it. Easy money buying my screens and 8 transducers now. 😂

[@rippinlipsinc.2200]

I would like to meet you one day and tell you my Bill lewis RatLTrap story. Buggs Island Kerr Lake camping as a kid. 13 bass from the bank caught off of 1 submerged rock. Chrome with blue back standard out the box. Using 12 pound test big game at the time. Great video MDJ! #RippinLipsInc

[@secure152]

My man said I am everywhere like the Air!!!! 😆😆😆

[@clips0292]

Shout out collin

[@justinbean6019]

Stay on Dale hollow a week around this time every year. 1/4oz ball head and a 3.3 is harrrrd to beat.

[@VitaminDeeTV]

Im not a huge fan of the travel vlogs, but the fooling around and jokes make it a banger video sometimes. We come here to watch y'all catch them belly shirts, but y'all boys be cutting up! haha Give em H-E- Double hockey sticks down in the Holler! lol

[@kevinjones7395]

I subscribe to the whole house. DC Jdub, AA. I would love to see you do something with a couple of other guys. You and BLat sould do something together. It could be just hanging out fishing, or talk about the obstacles you've each faced along the way. The other is a young man from your area, Larry Melton. He does yt fishing videos, now mostly in a kayak. I know he's in AL.

[@davidblake5199]

A town is getting worse and worse in traffic we’re number five last 20 years. You have to move 50 miles north lol Mark you should travel down past Macon and catch a 10 pound bass with me let’s go.

[@JasonSullivanBigBass]

Lol you answered it Jordan Lake

[@KurtisMays]

Man's turning his boat into Iron man's Jarvis system

[@DetroitFishigan]

No lie, I thought at the beginning of the video he was talking about haters 😂... Then right after we get the wiggler 😂💀. let's go, nothing but good vibes from my guy MDJ all the time I tune in 💯. Man I wished you have done better in Dale Hollow 😔. You tha man MDJ, I know you gonna bounce right back big dawg😎👊🏼

[@fishingwithbigjay]

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jasonmausteller2488]

Looks like Jacob is spending those tournament winnings.

[@garysanderford1572]

Chowan River will be Marks first win It just fits his fishing style.

[@Max-hz9vu]

7 ducers 😂 😂 I feel you bro just put on my boat and used for the first time yesterday and watching them suckers follow your bait had me super excited even though I couldn’t get them to bite yet but I will long live scoping

[@jeanetteprice4916]

The gang wouldn’t be the same without you

[@bcheesman77]

Damn MDJ... leave some for the rest of us.

[@youknoit1980]

Make what watch is that bro that thing is fresh … I know you’re going to win bro keep grinding on that ffs you a straight up great guy I hope you kill it

[@justinmerritt388]

Question: What level of tournament bass fishing has the greatest level of competition? The pro tours, The Regional events like Toyota series, or weekender series like the BFL

[@rgiles29]

Since you like eating good food. Try Drake's BBQ. Greenwood MS

[@shawnsutton2648]

Not hating on ffs bc its fun but when it comes to every fish counts, its a must, IMO. Lets get it MDJ

[@dgroves85]

The screen in your Toyota looks like a giant FFS screen 😂
