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 !!!!!!!!!!!
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...
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
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.
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.
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)
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.
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!
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.
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...
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!
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.👌👊
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
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.
@@freeyourmindtc what are they supposed to do? They don't make the schedule, their kids,and families got to eat too you know. This is there job, we all would do the same thing if this was our job.
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!
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.
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!🐟🐟🐟
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!
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.
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
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
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?
Scott/Brandon.... waaaaaaay too many ads!!! I love the videos, watch every single video ya'll put out, but damn fellas, 7 ads in a 37 minute video???? this is crazy
Scotty, just wondering what the best month to come fishing at Okeechobee would be? This is a bucket list trip for me and a buddy. We want to stay at your parents place and have a guide. We are experienced anglers and both former law enforcement (I’ll be retired and he’s a former law dawg).
Scott how do you feel about the saying wind from the West you catch the best if it's from the East you catch the least . If you do believe in it how do you adjust for the East wind
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..
Champlain i prayed about it .
Dude you guys are AWESOME!!
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 !!!!!!!!!!!
No fish finders not working well? Doesn't look like you're scanning much...
How did you go pro
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...
Yall need to get Dudley in the house! would love to see all the pranks!
Cox is the best shallow water bass fisherman going today. He knows how to catch the big girls up along the bank.
Gary and his dogs, gotta love it.
Let’s get a 10000 likes for the most consistent fisherman the past three years!!!
This is his job....
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
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
You are one of the greats were I can watch your videos more then once.
OH YEAH! Best bass fishing videos on TH-cam! Hell, better than nationally televised programs!
Definitely
Cory Kent : love any support for my new fishing channel.
Gage Parra : would love any support for my fishing channel.
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.
Your an inspiration for a lot of guys out here.
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
There is a cog wheel on the bottom right area of the video, you can enable the CC from there.
Ok Scott it's official. YOUR UP for the win on Champlain.
I don't care if its the 50th day i always wake up excited to go fishing
I subscribed to you, could you help a small fishing channel out. Thank you.
Yeah
Alright, Billy waking everyone up had me laughing pretty good!
Was hilarious
Billy is a Saint for the early morning wake up calls 🤙🏼
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.
Thanks for the heads up I’ll check on it...👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Scott Martin for sure
AOY Race is going to be exciting. Good Luck to team SMC
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
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)
chaz honaker : defiantly a cool perspective, to see how a real pro evaluates, and adapts after the fact. Talk about educational!!
I will most definitely share this for you. I really enjoy your channel. Full of energy and enthusiasm.
Scott, what’s it gonna take for you to take AOY? You’re my pick for the final stop, Lake Champlain.
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
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.
I know from awful firsthand experience that having your drag even a tick too tight can lose you big fish in a tournament.
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
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!

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

Total Banger great upload scott.

Need to have everyone do boat tours, ide be very interested in that.
Scott your a people's Champion regardless! One year soon the Chicks will be your year ! Congrats my friend on getting a check!!
love the anger
Scott when I grow up I’m going to be pro bass angler
Like you😊
Lilygosfishing chase your dreams and anything can be true
Love the show,Billy is funny.Your equipment is awesome except when you lose all those fish,st.croix rod can and will solve you missing those fish.
Yup!
"I've got a funny feeling Cox is going to win this thing"
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.👌👊
You notice Scott got back on track when he picked up the spinning rod!
Champlain is going to be a fun tournament to watch with 3 heavyweights battling for AOY, good luck!
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
Love the baby face Scott
Hope you win the cup this year and angler of the year.
Go win Champlain. AOY. Ding!!
It would be real interesting to know how this effects the spawning numbers.
Ya I didn't think they would be taking fish off beds...every fish off its bed there goes a lot of eggs....
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.
freeyourmindtc you wouldn’t care if you were making thousands for it.
@@freeyourmindtc what are they supposed to do? They don't make the schedule, their kids,and families got to eat too you know. This is there job, we all would do the same thing if this was our job.
PRODUCTION WAS GREAT. VERY GOOD VIDEO THANKS
Can't get cartoon billy out of my mind even when he's normal billy!
"Normal" Billy is still a cartoon! 😈
Great job!!
Good stuff from what I watched. ::)) Happy Fishing
A guide flew off the rod?
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!
Thanks man..
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.
Thanks Scott. I enjoyed the video but where was the footage of B-Lat. I want to see all the SMC team members.
B lat didnt have a tape in.
B Lat has his own channel and has been posting tourney vlogs there.
@@XDMStranger Yeah, I watch B-Lat's videos and vlogs. It's just that I like seeing him as part of the SMC team.
He didn't put the tape in for SMC. Cause he was mad about them putting the inline spinner on his line. Lol.
Awesome video Scott
Good video! Always watching!
Billy on day 1 morning😂😂😂
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!🐟🐟🐟
When did you switch to favorite rods? They are the best imo but dont you have your own line of okumas?
You must have just got done fishing right before i got there lmao good to actually meet ya

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.
I wish I have known Scott. I live 25 mins from where your fishing at. You should head up south chickamuga Creek. Theres 5_10 pounders in there.
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.
Im curious can you whip out a fly rod on these tournaments
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
Did I see you literally slide a rod eye back under it’s wrapping after landing that 5lber? 😂
Great job on the editing! Scott, your turn next!!!!!! Net, net, net!!!
gotta say I never could have convinced myself to leave a 10 pounder on a bed in a tournament. good self restraint.
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
Dropping the heat!! 🔥🔥🔥
love vids keep up the good work!!
👊🏼
Also Scott what is the name of the open rod you use with the yellow fishing string. I like it alot.
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?
Jordan Maltaner 😂
Scott you the man!! you proved that even with a deck full of Zebco 33‘s you could still catch’em 😂👍🏻
dude your videos are very entertainig thanks for the vids
👊🏼
You make me nervous as hell boat flipping those 5 pounders Scott!
Puttin in work bud keep it up
You and Tom are next up to WIN!! I'd like to see Tom win though....
I saw the lights gonna hurt Scott coming
Scott/Brandon.... waaaaaaay too many ads!!! I love the videos, watch every single video ya'll put out, but damn fellas, 7 ads in a 37 minute video???? this is crazy
I had 2 adds lol stop bitchinq
Doing good Scott keep it up
I subscribed to you, could you help a small fishing channel out. Thank you.
Prayers and best wishes sent up on your behalf from Loxahatchee Brother.👍
Scott- Why do you choose to use the yellow line early on? I'm curious to know the strategy with that.
Andrew snatched a dangum blimp!
Andrew, your deck is giving me anxiety. Looks like a damn yard sale 😂
Thats what happens when your catching them!
Shaun Cimini 😂😂😂😂
Great Video Scott. Keep up the hard work
Thanks you!!!
I’m new to your channel, love your videos. I just have a question have you ever turned in a 50lb bag? Or anything above 30lbs?
Scott what way should the loops be up or down?? It feels comfortable down but I'm hearing the correct way is up???
Scotty did u really just poke your eye back in the rod on that 5 pounder and keep fishing with it ? Hahaha😂😂💀
You gotta do what you gotta do
Bout to share the video real quick
Thanks bro
No problem my friend
Whoa Son....Big Ol Bass
Solid 42nd place 🤔
dude i know the feeling cause i lost a 10 at state tournament for my club its a pain
Thats terrible
@@ScottMartinChallenge yeah but you know you got to deal with it and say oh well there is always another one
Man I'm glad that FLW is using the zipper bag my brother was the one who invented it just keeper weight in bag
Come to lake pleasant Arizona see what you can do here.
At 19 minutes it looks like there’s a freaking polar bear in the background walking
YES I DID NOT THINK THAT
ANYBODY ELSE NOTICED
Hey Scott, why do you set the hook to the side when using a bait-caster and straight up when you’re using your spinning reel?
i LOVE Billy
Scotty, just wondering what the best month to come fishing at Okeechobee would be? This is a bucket list trip for me and a buddy. We want to stay at your parents place and have a guide. We are experienced anglers and both former law enforcement (I’ll be retired and he’s a former law dawg).

Funny hearing grown men whine about getting up lol. Good job Billy keep it going Scott was the only one who got up ready to go.
