Chasing The Grand Slam in Redeye Bass --International Fly Fishing Film Festival 2022--Director's Cut

Here in Alabama, we have 4 species of bass that are found nowhere else on Earth. Each bass is not only genetically distinct, but specialized to the unique waterways they inhabit. At the same time, each bass faces a conservation threat.
Matt Lewis and MB Meeks embark on an adventure to catch all four in one day-- the redeye bass slam -- while also championing the conservation of the species along the way.

TH-cam is offering to translate this to English for me 🤣

[@dorsaloutdoors]

@@BlueLineCo "Translate to English" might be the most offensive thing hurled at a southerner we've seen in awhile

Great video. Thanks. Beautiful rivers. What were those white flowers in the river? We dot have those here up aroundI toledo.

[@dorsaloutdoors]

Thanks, Eric! Those are Shoal Lillies (better known as "Cahaba Lillies" around here). Super interesting species that is worth the Google deep dive if you're curious!

[@user-ls6mv7ue5z]

Thank you. I used to be addicted to fishing. Now I'm addicted to native plants
