He Thought He Was STUCK But Hooked Biggest Fish Of The Day || (Bull Shoals AR) 

I love how you brought James on this trip it’s super cool watching him progress and learn to really enjoy fishing .

Thanks for the video guys! It brought many memories of the times I used to go there. 1978-1996 2 weeks spring and 2 weeks in the fall. Beautiful country! Beautiful lake! Great fishing!

James is my kind of bass fisherman: hooks a nice fish, doesn’t know it’s there until it jabs him in the ribs and says, "Hi!"

No-hookset James is a beast! It’s cringeworthy every time he gets a bite lol. Lovin’ it!

Awesome vids!! Hoping you can publish a rough estimate schedule of where you’ll be. There’s a lot of folks who’d love to buy you a meal, pay for your gas, and just say hi to show our support. Y’all are doing great! Keep it up.

Another freaking gem of a video guys! Way to rock Bull Shoals! The 50 state tour can never end! LOL you have to start all over again when you get to the end!

James is stepping up his Big Bass game! Loving the series!

I have come to absolutely love these 50 state tour videos. The fact you take the feedback from the comments and incorporate them into the day is amazing. James may not realize just how lucky he is to be able to be a part of this, wish he'd actually use the advice Matt offers. But either way you guys are an awesome team and thanks for giving me a ten-twenty min break everyday to watch

James is the King of the casual hook set 👍

"Gonna give the big girls what they want, the morning D" 😂😂 your killing me bro

I haven't fished Bull Shoals in years. But damn that lake was a secret gem about 20-25 years ago. So big, but felt smaller. So many species - Walleye, Gar, Sturgeon, Stripers, largemouth, catfish, even paddlefish. Hope it's still as good as it was a long while back

My favourite part about this tour is how much content your coming out with. Arkansas is my favorite state to fish. AMD I live there now too.

When you finish the 50 state tour you should do a Canadian tour. Every province has amazing fishing.

I just loves me Arkansas basses. Moved here in '99 just for that, and stayed because everything fits just right. No regrets at all. That biggin' you caught got some big air on ya. Thott he had you more than you had him. It coulda been a large mouth marlin, you really can't tell up there at Bull Shoals... lots of stories up there in Boat country. I wish you had covered some highlights of the tournament. Hope you enjoyed your stay. Y'all take care, and come back now, ya hyar? BYOB (Bring Yer Own Bait)

The Cornell Special baby, that's that hitta right there!

James awesome catch bro........we love James over here........ love this series........tight lines stay safe

That morning d! Hahaha! Morning dawn is my go to color but will never be called by its actual name again. Awesome videos man

"Give the big girls what they want, morning D" LOL!

Gettin' it all to work out!!! And James ---- gettin' da touch....... and bein' descriptive 'bout it. Tunin' right on in ------------ Helllllllllllllllll Yeaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Love it! Love it! Love it!!!!

James low-key funny as hell bro love it

Nice to see James getting some nice fish.

I'm diggin the king and the sting references!!

Nice job getting that fish out of the brush James. Another great stop on your trek across America. Keep on rolling and be safe out there.

That was a ballsy flip by James! Especially for someone who doesn’t fish a ton. Nice fishing boys! Bull Shoals is my home lake but I’m mainly up on the MO side.

YES! Go James! That first bass in the video was a lively one! I had always heard about bull shoals. Thanks for the video! 👍

You guy's have been kicking Bass man. The Rezz kicked our ass on Sunday. Keep on trucking guy's. See you soon........🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟

3:11 gonna give the big girls what they want the morning D..lol had me rolling

Looking forward to the Pickwick vid. That’s where I grew up fishing and I want to see you guys wreck some toads there.

James. You gotta set the hook bro. Your doing an awesome job man. Keep it up.

great video Matt looks like you guys are having a lot of fun out there!

My first 3.5lb LMB I caught, I thought I was snagged on a rock. Then the rock started pulling drag lol

Cool to see you guys enjoy our desolate little humid wasteland :D

james" don´t thnik thats a dude" ahahahahaha

My co-anglers always think they are stuck to, as the big one swims away. LOL!

My MAN! Dope video! James is probably the most chill person on a boat I’ve ever seen! He’s gonna have to join me in New Mexico with those chill vibes! 🌳😎🌲 Good luck on this other waters man. Keep up the great content.

The fishing is gana be getting wild soon!

I guess James DID decide to fish!!! :-)

Dude I love James 😂😂

Looks like a great day guys

No weather report and no bandito bug had me thrown off a little! Great catch James!

That's a cool lake. I went scuba diving there once in the spring I could see the big bass protecting their nests and I was swimming along.

You should be getting promotional funds from the different states you’re visiting. Awesome job. Way to win the day, James.

Love this series!

James and Matt, Is there any video on the High School weigh in? That pitch was spot on amazing, you should have gotten that kids name someday who knows. You indicate you are going to go across country again or come back and visit some of the recent stops. Next time wrap the boat so people on the water know who you are and take a small craft along, canoe or kayak. There are some incredible small bodies of water out there that produce big fish and large numbers. The big bodies of water are nice but a small piece of the overall picture.

We have HUGE striper and cats here, ya'll come back for those. Would make for another great vid of our amazing lake system here in the Ozarks

Whenever you guys come thru IL we should meet up and grab some beers at a local brewery. Glad to see you guys having fun

Love the hat huge fan of the brewery! Also loving the videos man making me crave the season

I love the first person pov and seeing the tic in the rod and line when you get bit.

Crazy how different the fish look state to state, or I should say water to water, missed James’s weather report.

Killing the edits bro keep it up love it

That perfect pitch by the dude on the other boat at 6:27

That 4 pound hitter boy. Gang gang buzz buzz

I honestly wonder why some people dislike your videos

... WAY TO GO JAMES. Nice fish buddy. Waters starting to warm up, fish getting down to business. Love these videos. 👍😎

Hell yes TN finally coming in.

Some great fish on this one!

Whats the Illinois plan? I would love the chance for my son to meet his favorite fisherman!

Cool vid Matt! The drone footage at the beginning was awesome man. Those were some chunky bass!!

Fishing in arkansas is amazing over in the northwest and central parts but the northeast corner is tough going sometimes. As a fan i was kinda hoping you would be in the northeast side. In particular lake frierson and mallard lake, where the state record was caught would have made for a definite interesting video. Holler at me man if you decide to come back this way love to fish with you and buy you guys some lunch at a local favorite

Repping Arkansas! Bout time y’all got to my state!

Bull shoals showing out !!

Killing the game

Nice! This seemed like a cool, relaxed day for you guys. Way to go James on landing that nice 4. That intro was 🔥 btw

I’m glad you’re posting content everyday.

Love to see James hitting some hogs out there....pretty sure I saw some excitement and smiles! As always, thanks for taking us all along....sorry you're missing some big A$$ Rockfish here.

James gotta teach me that technique you have!! Well boys yet another great video keep it up.

CBJ!!! UPSET TIME! Beautiful spots.

Can’t wait too see you in Ohio bro

I been waiting for y'all to hit "The Natural State" lol. Should've came and hit Degray.

I’ve been waiting for lunch all day to watch this

Need the Weather report James it's a must!

Great day! :)

Great content keep up the great work...

Good FISH James!!

looks like james is getting a little better with the bait caster

The morning D!! Lmao!!

Wish I could of come see you and James but I'm disabled and can't drive that far. So good luck on the rest of the 50 state tour

Glad you enjoyed my home lake! I live just down the road in Yellville and camp at that campground a few times a year. Wish I would've known you guys were there, I would've come up and grilled you a couple steaks.

Great video, your presentation styles are really nice, relaxed and "real people". Does not get better than that.

Great catches 🤙🏻

Love the retro Jeff Gordon shirt lmao

Love the content man, chase your dreams

Wtg james see I knew you would catch you a nice one bro just have to keep at it and never give up bro both of you guys were on the fish them were some great fish so when do you all think you will be coming to Alabama I would so like to meet up with you guys just to say hey or something I mean I would love to meet you guys you'll are one of my favorite you tubers but anyway love the videos and you guys were on them today keep it up and keep laying out these fire videos and even better fishing thanks

Honestly im only watching bits and pieces of this series currently and once its finished im gonna binge watch it start to finish as i normally like to binge series while at my desk either while gaming websurfing haven a few cold choice beverages that sort of deal, needless to say the vids ive caught (pun intended) im loven, been following now for a year or so honestly im horrible with times XD your video quality has improved quite a bit tho in the time i been watching as youve gotten noticeable more comfortable talking to a camera especially in public. Heres to many more years of fishen and the road to those youtube play buttons

nice catches and sweet video!

JAMES GOT THAT HITTAH

I've grown up here, that boat would be perfect for the river

Another great video, thanks again guys

I used to live in Bull Shoals. Worked for ranger boats putting decks and hulls together. Did you go to Flippin and check out the factory?
