Growing up I remember watching Roland Martin and Bill Dance on TV. I don't remember which show or channel it was on but I specifically remember watching you and Bill Dance. I never put 1 and 1 together and realized you were Scott Martin's father lol. I came to your channel after watching Bill Dance and your son on a show here on RU-vid. Thank you, it takes me back and I get to think about the good old days.
So jealous of your storage room. It's like your own personal bass pro in your basement. Keep up the videos, I watch every one with my daughter (8yrs old), she says "that's a good deal right there"
Been fishing 30 years. Never caught a single fish on a plastic worm. Spinners sure, crank bait sure, top water sure, minnows and live worms sure. Roland says get senko’s, I get some. And now I catch fish on plastic worms. Teach on Roland!! Knowledge is power!
Clark's Hill, now called Strom Thurmond, is where I've live my entire life. Spent untold hours fishing it in my 54 years. I wish I had known when you were here, just for the chance to thank you for the inspiration you have given me over the years! Virgil Ward and yourself have been my fishing heros as far back as I can remember!! I remember the awe when Virgil showed me what a pike and a musket was, and the joy of catching my first, to me, giant bass after watching you!!! Until them it had only been bream on worms I had dug!!! Still catch myself singing Virgil's theme song in my head while I'm fishing!!! Thank you Sir, you are a Scholar and a Gentleman!!!!
@@RolandMartinOutdoors ur the man roland. Ive learned more fishing tips from u than family members. Just dont be ridkng bikes with bill dance anymore. Hes dangerous. Lol
You deserve more then just 88,000 subs you should have over a million by now you are a legend and a idol of mine. Wish I could fish with you and your son that would be a dream come true. Love from Oregon
Mr. Martin! I have been watching you for so many years... I learn something every time! I love watching you teach! A great teacher you are sir... and thank you for taking the time. We have met a couple of times, and you've always been so available to ask questions and advise. Thank you for all you do. Many blessings to you.
I had the chance to interview Rowland at the Great American Outdoor Show in Harrisburg this year. What a Gentleman! Always so knowledgeable an and a great personality on camera! I was so impressed! After the interview, he was chatting about the camera gear we both use, RU-vid channels, etc. Sure we could have chatted for hours. Maybe some other time!
I have been rigging my casting worm rod with 30 lb. braid and 15 lb. mono leader with 1/16 worm weight but rig my weight differently. Before tying the hook, I pass the mono through the mono three times and leave the loops loose. Tie the hook on then push the ye with the mono so the weight comes to the hook eye then pull all the loose line so the weight stays at the eye. No need for pegs or bobber stops. Works for me. Tom Myers from North Fort MYERS. Thanks for your posts.
Mr Martin I been watching you for a long time now. I’m 37 and pick up bass fishing from watching you on TV.. learned a hole lot from you. So thanks you. YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE MY SUPPORT..
I'm back watching this one again. When I searched, I searched to see what you had to say about rigging worms. Thank you sir. BTW I'd already watched this previously but wanted to refresh my old brain... Again Thanks.
Our town, here in Ont. Canada is called Coldwater for a reason, so, thanks for including clear water and light tackle too. Best channel on youtube for anglers. I don't need to skip to the end to get a nugget of knowledge. Your vids are so densely packed I have to take notes (I'm not kidding). No one else does it this well so, thank you.
Thank You ROLAND for your Worm Fishing Methods & Knowledge. Your Teaching Instructions help fellow Fisherman become Better. It surely helps me to be an improved Experienced Angler.
I cant thank you enough for posting these videos ... I dont know anyone who like to fish and have no one to help a guy out... went out yesterday landed 4 lg. Mouth in my first 5 casts ... never happened to me before, couldn't believe it! Thanks again and cant wait to see the new videos.
Figured out what Ive been doing wrong all along, I have the tip of my rod about a foot above water, lol. I didnt know it matters, now Im holding it high. Thanks Mr.Martin and digging those rods especially the white one. Please keep us wannabe bass fishermans schooled weekly
Came across his videos a little less than a month ago, that night I bought a fishing license, kayak and go pro hahaha, with his advice I have managed to wrangle up 3, 4lb-5lb bass. Not huge but I'm still learning and I got to say two over 4 pounders in 30m of fishing got me hooked for good in this sport. Thanks for inspiring me Roland! In all seriousness 40days ago I had no clue who you were at all, now your my hero.
based on your video on the senko being the #1 bass catching worm, i bought some, and the 4/0 hooks and went to lake travis (austin, texas) last friday. hey, i caught a bass. thanks roland. if i catch just one fish when i fish, i feel great for the next 3 days. i would really like to come fishing with you sometime.
You're the best Martin. I wish I could fish florida or somewhere like that with the Big fat bass. Where I live in Kansas, I have the best luck with Ultralight set ups.
Can you please write all that down with illustrations and email that to me? Just kidding Roland. Your the best! Keep the videos coming. Appreciated. mvh
Very educational. Thanks Mr. Martin. I'm new to fishing and have mostly just been fishing a weightless Texas from the shore. Now I definitely want to try out different tactics getting on a kayak or paddleboat and fishing a drop shot or trying a weighted Texas in some cover, which I mostly try to avoid and stay on the edge of.
Holy cow at all those rods. You could probably increase your audience a lot by giving one away per week/month to a random person who comments. Just a thought, I still enjoy your videos. Thank you sir!
Can you explain “widening the weed guard out” ? I couldn’t really make out what you were doing or talking about. Thank you for all your videos. You are THE MAN!
Hey roland can you please do more videos like this with talking about lures and the different rods to use them and also talking about the different rods in general and what types of rods to use for that type of application and how and when to use them. That would be greatly appreciated and would be very helpful and informational please and thankyou
Gotta try that Skipping technique. I don't have a boat but I can try throwing into the side of the banks! That'd work great in the Mangroves as well for Redfish, Mangrove Snapper,. Snook
Hey roland can you please also make a video just talking about fishing rods I'm very curious on your opinion of the different aspects of rods and the different types and brands of rods can you please make a video like that it would be extremely helpfull
I don't use worms much but, I did land a nice smally on one. I was dragging it slowly on the bottom ned rig style. The bass was a good 3+ pounds not my pb she was a fun fight on lite tackle. My Pb smally is 22 inches . I enjoy your videos and they me become a better fisherman!
Hey 👋 Roland love the content n ur videos plus ur positivity can u make a video on braided lines n spoils on spinning reels example my reel spoll recommend 10lbs test but u talk about running 50lb braid with a mono leader for heavy cover are u putting 50lb braid on a normal spoll maybe u could explain line recommendations in more details thanks 🙏 for educating us on fishing
Roland I’m reading your book now and working my way through the chapters, tons of good info. However maybe you could cover a chapter here and there as the seasons allow?
