I admire you being just as excited for others catching big fish as you are when you hook one. Thank you for showing the world what good character and sportsmanship looks like.
Wow, The Flukemaster on my home lake!! Never would have thought I would see that when I first started following you a few years ago! Hope you enjoyed your visit to Athens and East Texas. There are many good lakes around here, so hope you can make it back several times in the future. My best Lake Athens experience was meeting Randy White (The Dallas Cowboys legend) while fishing as a teenager, but meeting you would have been right up there, buddy!
but nice skilled professional action-packed adventurous entertaining video flukemaster and Lakeforkguy you guys and Scott martin would be a absolute blast
Hey Gene, I love watching you pitch. Although I have a question, I've been trying to pitch but my reel doesn't seem to let out line fast enough to really get a good distance. I typically use a 1/4oz weight. So my question is - is it my reel that is inhibiting my pitch distance (I bought it used, it's a 2 year old Lew's LFS) or do I need to up my weight in order to pitch more than 4 yards?
You and Justin should do another video together but go to lake quitman y'all have both taught me a lot about fishing and y'all together is a really great video.
Nice fishing guys but one thing next for LFG you need to sing more often so that the Fluke Master can hear some country music while fishing in TEXAS. THE FLUKE MASTER welcome too TEXAS BUD yall come back yall hear
man I hope that lake doesn't get anymore pressure. the whole parking lot and all the grass gets filled up and people have to start parking in the very back parking lot.
Flukemaster how heavy of a boat is it? Do you think a 20hp would move it. Most of my lakes are limited horsepower. That's why I ask. My other option that I like is crestliner storm.
Flukemaster thanks for the quick reply. Yeah I have to research it. Wish I was in Texas. It's still summer down there compared to Pennsylvania. It's getting cold. Hopefully I can get some big girls to play tomorrow. Anyway keep up the awesome videos Gene
4:35 Glad to know that you guys do that sometimes too; makes me feel a little better haha. This video goes out to all those who are like "Gene why do you never fish a fluke??"
Evan Nunez be honest is the best policy. These companies are looking for a particular type person or fisherman. If you are what they are looking for you will be selected. Don't sweat it. There are a lot of companies out there sponsoring or looking for Pro Staff. Also know exactly which you are applying for. There is a big difference between a sponsorship and a Pro Staff position. Lots of people in the industry confuse the two. I am not Gene but I am on 7 different Pro Staffs so thought this might help.
I watch several different youtube fishing channels sometimes 2 or more actually link up to do videos together now this one is with 2 serious and skilled entertaining fishermen collaborating pure skilled bass anglers dynamite video unlike goofy corny geeky ones like when Jon b,flair,and other goofishermen or fisherboys not fishermen get together act stupid the whole video I'm just saying

Hey Gene, I love watching you pitch. Although I have a question, I've been trying to pitch but my reel doesn't seem to let out line fast enough to really get a good distance.

try loosening your brake way up, both the magnetic on the left side and the tension knob! what kind of plastic are you flipping with a 1/4?
You and Justin handle fish the right way. Flip em in and release them quick. I like watching you two fish together.
Totally understand Justin's fish smelling...After I catch the first fish of the day I can't stop smelling my hands haha
I have a question Gene!! As winter rolls around will the mid day bite pick up?
Yes it will
I know LakeForkGuy, I love both your channels!! Looking forward to more videos of you together...
I feel we are missing an ending lol. Also, love the videos. Do you use barbless hooks?
Yep. The video didn't render like it should have and I didn't catch it until it was too late. It's only the regular ending that you hear all the time.
Great video man, you two colabing together leads to a great fishing video hope to see more.
Thanks
Good video guys, but you gotta get out offshore to catch those bigger fish.
hey gene im an angler living in northern nevada and i have an unusually hard time catching bass. got any tips for a desert bass fanatic?
Awesome! The Dynamic Duo! Watch you both all the time, ever better when you all are fishing together great clip Gene!
Thanks Mark
what is for favorite rod and reel? and how much do they cost?
dobyns fury 704c and 13 fish inception and 220
My new favorite rod is the One3 Fate Chrome - 79.99
Is this the rod that is essentially replacing the No. 8 Blackout?
You and Justin should do another video together but go to lake quitman y'all have both taught me a lot about fishing and y'all together is a really great video.
I live 1 hour away from Athens fyi use a texas rig red shad powerbait
Gene is a Fishing God among men! Lakefork your not that bad ether.
Thanks James
Nice fishing guys but one thing next for LFG you need to sing more often so that the Fluke Master can hear some country music while fishing in TEXAS. THE FLUKE MASTER welcome too TEXAS BUD yall come back yall hear
LOL Thanks man
have you ever fished ladybird lake (aka town lake) here in austin?
Nope
Flukemaster its a kayak spot. but look it up if you have the time - there are some absolute BEASTS in there
Gene ...i guess i missed the video on T-shirt of the month ?.....where is it i go watch :0)
you did do one yes ?
I didn't film one this month. Want it to be a surprise
What was the weight on that one Justin landed near the end?
Do you ever keep the fish you catch for eating?
+Calvin K only crappie and walleye
man I hope that lake doesn't get anymore pressure. the whole parking lot and all the grass gets filled up and people have to start parking in the very back parking lot.
How did your Alumacraft perform with three adults in the boat?
No problem at all. It's a wide boat and very stable.
Flukemaster how heavy of a boat is it? Do you think a 20hp would move it. Most of my lakes are limited horsepower. That's why I ask. My other option that I like is crestliner storm.
That would be something to ask a dealer. You might be better with a Pro 165 instead
Flukemaster thanks for the quick reply. Yeah I have to research it. Wish I was in Texas. It's still summer down there compared to Pennsylvania. It's getting cold. Hopefully I can get some big girls to play tomorrow. Anyway keep up the awesome videos Gene
I live in Athens and under one of the docks in the video my dad cought a 11 bass large mouth
dude I go here all the time on my boat
Cool
that's what I'm saying. I think it's awesome you came there. I'm about to go fishing there right now lol I'm going to try the double fluke
I agree with Skyler, you two are an awesome team, it'd be great to see you guys fish a tournament together!
fluke master what kind of bait you was using
We were mostly using Hollow Body Frogs and creature baits.
Cool Great video I enjoy you guys
What is that thing in you where on your neck is it so that you can turn on and off your mic and camera
fluke came in clutch with the net at 9:53
LOL
4:35 Glad to know that you guys do that sometimes too; makes me feel a little better haha.
This video goes out to all those who are like "Gene why do you never fish a fluke??"
Gene, how should you aproach a application for a sponsorship?
also great vid!!!

Thank you!!!
You should go fishing with Bama bass
It's in the works
Can you please tell me the model of the rod you're using?
I use 13 Fishing Omen and One3 Fate Rods
Thanks for responding Gene.
Hey gene I am a young angler and do you think I should pursue my dream of becoming a pro fisherman and if so how should I do so
Work very very hard.
That is my dream as well man
Brody Rock dont have kids till your older and spend lots of time on the lake practicing a lot
seems the video cuts off early at the end.
Also, Go Gators!
I'm thinking it was due to a commercial or something.
I'm thinking it was due to a commercial or something.
Wasn't that. I had adblock on so I never get commercials.
Thank God he didn't drag his old lady along with y'all!
LAKEFORKGUY

What would you suggest?
First 🙂
