Congratulations on the win Scott!! This has been a journey for a little while coming but I’m glad you put it together and stuck it out!! Thanks for never giving up, praise the lord for this, and keep at it!! I wish you the best of luck in the rest of your tournaments and you have inspired me to keep going no matter what!! Best of luck in the rest of your tournaments don’t give up and stay at it!!
If you go into the elites with the same attitude you did this one, Scott, you'll have a blue trophy in no time. Been cheering you on for what feels like a decade or more. You got this buddy. It would also be sick to see the OG FLW crew all make the elites.
A buddy of mines grandfather would go to the Big O every year, we were looking at old pictures and in every one there was vegetation and reeds everywhere, but watching your videos they have killed off so much of that grass is pitiful. Why are they doing that. Do they not realize the money the lake brings in and the fish that they are putting in danger??
GOOOD F’N job Scotty on your win on a home lake and breaking records brotha. The unfinished family business is almost complete. Awesome job bubba. AWESOME JOB! One step closer to handing pop that trophy. You deserve it man. And I’m truly glad you got it done on your home lake.
Congrats Scott!! Wow I’ve been watching you for about 6-7 years and what I love the most is your faith in God. He’s blessing you and it’s great to see someone give Jesus the credit on the big stage. Such a real person. My bucket list involves fishing a day with you on your home lake. Maybe one day I will be blessed with that. Couldn’t have happened to a better man and his family 🙏🏼
@@ScottMartinChallenge Keep up the great work Scott !! You’re living my dream !!! I’ve learnt so much off you over the past years watching your fishing videos! If I ever get a chance to come down to Florida I’ll for sure be making a stop at the Martin Marina for some jaw jerkin! Until then I’ll be up here in OTT 🇨🇦 making my own soft plastic baits and catching the big ones in the back country!!
Loved the video Scott! So glad you won the tournament!! Been watching for many years always love it when you post a tournament video! Good luck this year!
I’ve fished Pro Tournaments without a major win yet Im superstitious as heck . So I understand if the answers NO BUT … Is there any chance i could purchase that ? I will Enter my next tournament with higher hopes wearing that and cherish it forever!! Great Job i was on the Edge of my Seat all tournament ! Congratulations Your BACK!!!! John Evinrude pro team Life Vest .
Congratulations, man!! I have been following you for a while, and I don't even bass fish. I make a living from fishing too so I watch for the competitive part. Awesome video. My boys love them googan baits!!
I just picked up a 1984 Cajun bass boat that I have to restor, because that’s how bad I want a bass boat as a 14 year old you have taught me alot of things and want to be a bass fisherman when I’m older, so thanks for the tips you have taught me and encourage me
I agree about all the things that Dakota Lithium has out there but I didn’t go with them solely because of the customer service. So many people out there with nightmare stories trying to help. I really wish it was better.
So now that you're with Lews, what did you do with all your FAVORITE Rods? If you're feeling generous, I wouldn't turn away a HEX rod......Haha!! Congrats on the win sir!!!
I don't think people actually LISTENED to the most important thing you said int his video… Tournaments have gotten too large interns of the number of entries and even though Okeechobee is a MASSIVE lake, 180+ boats is too much and on top of all that pressure of so many anglers, all that motoring on the water, all at the same time also isn't great for the ecosystem. I think you're onto something and maybe the series owners and officers should maybe take a look at maybe doing smaller qualifiers in smaller lakes and only the top however many make it to the big ones… Possibly no more than 100 boats total. It's really difficult to figure out all the logistics so swiftly, but something aught to be done. Great job,, so happy for you. It's been an insane grind over the last several years and one day you can't miss, and the next 2 days are hit and miss, but that's fishing I guess. Just glads it ALL came together for you AT HOME!!! ❤🏆
Your so professional in every moment idk why but Im drawn more to your content than anybody else's. Keep up the long videos! Keep up the good fishing and that positive attitude even when you don't feel so positive. I think that's why I like your channel so much .
One of my fav anglers to watch, great Scott what a win lol 🤙🤙, well done Scott cheers from SA. We were just at a friends sons 18th birthday celebration and he just caught a 4,8kg pb
Awesome!! Biggins !! Congratulations!! I gotta get some new merch! I got few hats from year ago !! Stay safe and Godbless you and your family!! Our Lord is so good !! God is great!!
0:13 0:13 Scott probably didnt cheat, but Martin did fir sure. And Martin could have very easily did Scotts dirty work. We all know your Dad didt win all those tournaments just fishing. Cut down forage and dumped brush piles ahead of tournaments. Hooked onto existing logs and dragged them away. People that went to fish these areas and the bass werent there. So your Dads been dumping brush piles again i see
We always took a bag of worms and stuffed it full of everything we need. Put that in your back pocket and take off wading thru the river. Those big bags are nice.
Loved the video Scott! So glad you won the tournament!! Been watching for many years always love it when you post a tournament video! Good luck this year!

Great job bro congratulations on the big win on the big O I hade a feeling man u was gonna do something very special this year and u did this is your year man hammer down and let's get another trophy you are in the the big Bass Masters Classic bro so let's calm down and fish.......
Man you dominated! I learned so much seeing how you used your FFS on the bedding fish. What is that spinner on top of the speedcraw deal you threw in practice? It looks like a snagless sally with a weighted swimbait hook. IS that a homemade deal or do they sell them somewhere? I have a tournament on a local lake that fishes like Okeechobee and I wanna try that.
What and where can we get that hat your wearing in this video!!! Congratulations on the smoke show you put on !!! We are always rooting for you from Richmond Va !!!
Still the best videos in the business. Scott I wish I had half the baits you have sitting in those garage bins hahaha.. 😅 great start to the season and good luck this season on the Elites! Been watching your videos from the beginning w Spinner worm .. lol
By the way. Please share your diet and exercise you do. You look incredible brother. You took 10 years off and added 10 more in the end. So help me out share the secret.
I went on a trip with Captain Justin a couple of years ago. Really enjoyed the marina and bait shop, hoping to get back down there with him again in the next year.
As a collegiate angler I’m taking notes. On practice days I never think to get the fish to bite and try to get him to drop the bait so you don’t catch him in front of other boats
Scott, congratulations for this win you truly deserve every beautiful emotion felt during that win. I have a question hopefully you can respond and I understand if you can't, would you consider that rig you were using at 34:38 a pegged Texas rig or a Florida rig?
I remember Andrew from the Amazon vids, and that one video when he slapped Hilary😂😂. Great video Scott, kinda wild watching this and you didn’t know all you were going to accomplish yet. Huge congrats man!! Forever my favorite 🤙🏼
Congratulations on big Recoed bag win on your home lake. And I been waiting for that 3 day record breaking bag and Tournament win! Why are they not posted? Normally they would have by now.
Love getting to see the thought process during practice! "Make the right decision" was something you repeated over and over - it definitely seems like at the top level, the mentality of the angler and the decision-making ability really start to outweigh even the fishing skills. And you definitely were on top of your game and made the right decisions! Awesome stuff!
Your energy seemed different than any other pre-fish video of yours that I've seen.. Not 'high' or 'low' per se. Different. I can't wait for the tournament video.
@@ScottMartinChallenge I understand the benefit, if money was no object I would definitely live your lifestyle and own the cooks shit you own. Us poor folks who have to save to buy stuff at full price have be very selective. I appreciate all you do my man and love your content and your positivity and ambassadorship for bass fishing.
Scott: I’ve had the pleasure of fishing out of your family marina. The city is an incredible place for bass fishermen. A beautiful lake, great launch area, small town (no traffic jams) and easy to get to. I’m heading to GA & FL tomorrow. Not sure if we will make it to Clewiston, but I would sure like too. God Bless!
What a difference a year makes, huh? The highs and lows of fishing. You struck out last year on the big "O" and hit it out the park this year! Congrats Uncle Scott..lol. You see what happens when you stop over analyzing and overthinking. Put your head down and fish with patience and confidence the rest of this year on the Elites and good things will happen, I promise. God bless you and your family during this up and coming season..🙏
Just wanted to congratulate you Scott! You’re always my pick on the “O” and I grew up thinking that lake was a magical place! It’s good to see that it still is brother. Praying for the family, looking forward to the Elites!
