SHARE THIS Video with people that need help catching bass on plastic worms! Comment below what "how to catch a bass" tip you would like to see in the future!
This video would be a lot better if you showed the rigging of the different set ups. Maybe that could be a future video. I think most new fisherman probably have no idea about half the stuff you are talking about. If this video is just tips for people who already know how to fish then you good. But most new people are not going to know what you mean when you say "peg" or "bobber stopper", or even "water column" for that matter :)
Tips on all sorts of baits like this video and how to rig bait. What reel/rod combo cross the board. Would be and are the best videos IMO. Technique for all baits is what’s most important I think. Then learning how to judge weather, moon phase and all that can come next.
Jon Boat build?
Would love to see a video on how to use the bobber stopper to peg. Bought some and for the life of me can’t figure out how to use them 😂
I was it Roland Martin so I can fish with you but you was out of town making a Video
Good video
Tried and true
Im stickin with my zoom red bug finess worm
Your a wealth of knowledge and a great guy! Thanks for all the great content!
Video starts at 2:15....
Worm fishing is #1 if the fish ain't bitting usually a worm will work
Great videos. Easy to learn from. I watch your dads stuff too. Keep em coming.
What a Teacher Scott is Roland and You are the World's Best Number 1 Thank You Much. SONNNNNNNNNNNNNN, SONNNNNNNNN. Smiling.
Just started bass fishing again after a 15 year hiatus, do you fish a senko the same way?
Thank you for that video. I have never fished with a plastic worm before. I have always fished with top water.
Thanks for all the info Scott, caught my biggest bass on a straight tail worm, would love to see weightless soft plastic techniques
Great tips!
Love watching you fish Scott, have learned a lot from watching, please keep up the great work you do
Simple and sweet great loved how you just make the basics so easy thanks
How come all the videos I watch are guys fishing way better water then what is in NE Oklahoma
Amazing tips Scott, thank you!
Thank you Scott!!!!!!
Really liked this video! very informative, looking forward to more of the same series.
Hey I met you at bass pro one time
Can you please do a video in South Africa
Difference between shank and off set hook?
Man it's hard to beat the trigged finesses worm this time of year.
Can you do a video on spoons?
I so wish more people would do how to fish videos like your dad and this. Never had someone teach me how to fish so I've had to learn on my own.
Nothing like promoting Googan 😂
Love the tips. Awesome video
Only people making money off fishing want to "grow it"!
Hi Scott. I am here inNorthern California. Any advice re the Ca Delta? Or, reservoir fishing. Also, do you ever do trout? I really like your no nonsense direct how to videos. I really feel that you walk the walk, not just talk the talk.
This is literally the most underrated video in Bass fishing right now. So many people sold on many different styles of baits, but if someone isn’t able to pull out the worm, and connect with the fish, then be ready to miss bites 😭
Thank you for taking time to teach. Looking forward to meeting you at Lake Ray Roberts 2021
@Scott Martin I believe you will. I have confidence in your ability as a fisherman. Next to my son, you have had influence on me as a fisherman.
Hopefully I’ll be there 👊🏼
Awesome video. One of my confidence baits. Cant wait for a flipping video
What’s the best knots to use for worm fishing.
I love it u can make me a better fisherman
Bandito bugs are 🤯🤯
I know right!
Love the tips, thank you!!
Thanks!
The world needs movie theaters and other forms of entertainment to open up. I am tired of all the boats on my water.
Love the tips keep them coming my new favorite worm 8inch slimshake
Nah dont wanna share the sport tbh lol waters are pressured/crowded enough... great vid
In Norris lake all summer a 10 inch worm is 🔥. I went Sunday night after church and used my go to Okeechobee blue flaked worm with a chartreuse tail. I casted onto a couple of rocks and almost instantly a five and a half pounder hit it.
Wht abt a glass bead? U ever use them ?
Pretty good info here about rod tip and rod movement... often over-looked but important stuff! Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to more videos
Awesome tips dude! Loving these! Great video and good in-depth learning experience! Thanks man!
Hey Scott Just want to say that this is by far one of my favorite videos you have made. I'm just the average joe weekend Fisher if I can go and love all the tips you give they are a big help to me have used some of your tips in the past and caught some nice bass. Thanks again for making videos like this keep them coming.
These are great. I grew up watching Bill Dance, Jimmy Huston, and your dad fishing and I learned a lot. This new stuff is great but sometimes I just have to go back to some of the old techniques to give the fish a little different look at a bait. Or I have to throw some old stuff i know there not throwing...( banjo minnow, and the helicopter lure.)
Y’all keep tellin me to smash the subscribe button. I don’t know how many times I subscribed and unsubscribed. 🤷🏽♂️
So who made the mondo lfg or Scott 🤔 idk I believe Scott would have before I would lfg I don’t think them kids did who knows
The tip series are my favorite type of videos you put out. Thanks for the info.
🤙🏼
🤙🏼🤙🏼
Do you use fluorocarbon or monofilament line?
Thanks Scott. I liked the part about colors in the winter time matching the water.
Loved the show. This is what is really needed and has been missing on fishing shows for ever. On TV they show people catching fish and having lots of fun but never really get in depth on how it is done or rigged. They may said rig it with a Texas rig or Carolina rig or use this size weigh or that but never show you what they are talking about. You have to guess or go looking else where to see what that means. Then fishing it and explaining what you are doing and why is great. The other shows that are fun and entertaining are good too but when you want to learn something it needs to be broken down and shown. AS far as what I would like to seen is maybe how to keep from picking up weeds and grass when using this method. some time you can drag it along the bottom but sometimes there isa so much junk on the bottom that you are dragging half the lake bottom into to you. do you just not try this methon in those situations or is there a better way to rig it to not pick up so much junk.
Thanks Scott, great to know and you just helped me a lot.
You need to do another video with trash talking James what do you guys think
Very good video! I’m a sucker for worm fishing. I would however like to see a bank Fishing video. What areas to target, and your opinion on what’s baits to use?
Maybe show the hook tying and rigging as well. I know a lot of people who could benefit from that. Including myself. I can Texas rig with the best, but I don't ever use flipping hooks. I never peg the weight...does that really make a difference? I guess with fall rate it would
Need to work out 💪 Brothe 😁🍺🍺👍🇺🇸🎣🎣. Your out of breath after 1 bass 😁🥳🤔 and your not overweight. I’m overweight and I walked 6 miles yesterday to catch 5 good bass lol 😂. That Mando Worm 🐛 is one of the best if not the best Bed 🛌 Fishing bait. I caught the same fish off the same bed 3 times lol 😂. 10 inch worm might be intimidating to trow especially for a finesse fisherman, but Texas Rig it like Scott in this video and I promise you it’s a fish catching machine 💪💪🎣🎣🎣🎣👌👌👍👍👍😎😁🥳
Another fun and informative video! Thank you! Also, really glad to see that Hilary's vlogs are doing well. I believe she gets her enthusiasm from you! 🤜
Love the tip videos consider it shared brotha
Thanks!!!
@ScottMartin what type of reel are you using? That thing just sings when you cast it out. Sounds like it goes forever.
Could you make an advanced series along with this beginner series?
Junebug is FIRE in stained/clear-ish water too especially at night. Sometimes it's equally as good or better than watermelon & green pumpkin. For super clear water (6ft + vis) Zoom's watermelon seed is hard to beat.
Thank you brother 👊👍
You forgot to mention Googan is a Chinese company. Just lost whatever respect for you I had. 😑. Say NO to the dragon!
Just when think you fishing a worm wrong. Thanks for keeping my head in the game
What size hook are you using for the different worm sizes and plastic thickness?
Love the info Mr.Martin!! Thank you for sharing. Please keep em coming. New to bass fishing and loving your channel.
Scott we are planning a vacation to Florida. My boys are big fans and i want to take them fishing while we are there. Do you do guided tours? how do i go about getting info on the cost of a tour for 3 of us with you?
Scottie!
So what engine company did Scott move to
i would love to see a spinner or crank bait video. keep it up love the content and appreciate you!
Possibly in the future!
Come show me how plz
Good stuff Scott on breakin down worm fishing. Love the content and am looking forward to this series
@Scott Martin Also love the Trump flag on the vice versa! Way to represent!
Thank you!
Outside of a shaky head, I get frustrated fishing worms. Dragging worms just seems to do nothing for me, I just don't get bites. I know its still a great way to fish.
It all varies on the body of water buddy. You've got to learn to adjust on the fly and know what baits and color and action and location is hot for the day. Dont give up and fish on brother. Ive got frustrating days too. Just learn from everything and let it make you a better angler.
Once you learn to fish worms you'll like it
Yes! These tips and techniques videos are my favorite. Keep it up! This video made me realize that I was typically using too much weight. I'm gonna try to lighted it up.
Love it
Thank you
Uh oh next generation teacher. dad gonna be proud
Great tips Scott.on. Choosing color dpeneds on the seasons too.Makes me wanna fish right now bwhaha😁
Love it... I have exclusively went to Googan Baits products and caught my PB bass this year... A 10 lb Largemouth. Keep it up Scott. You're the best... BAM..
That’s awesome!! Thanks! BAM👊🏼
You are awesome Scott Martin, I love your work!!! I am so addicted to you channel!! Please keep these clips coming !! God bless from Australia!!
Thanks for the support!!!
Favorite way to fish right there. Thanks for all you do TeamSMC for life!
TeamSMC
Great information can’t week for the next tournament video. Need more of them!
I have such a hard time throwing soft plastics and slowing down. I 😍 to pound crank baits, jerk baits, etc down their throats. I just want to fire casts feeling like im doing some work. However, on those days id crank and crank with the sun too high and hot, producing little to no results. My grandfather would slowly start putting it on me by fishing simple soft plastic setups. Specifically a 7” yellow ribbon tail worm. I know how good they can be. I still have a hard time with just wanting to use soft plastics and slowing down. This was and awesome video. Thanks for the motivation!!!!! Now i wanna jack one and hammer down on a big ole slunger with a worm!
Grandpas are always right:)
looking thin and fit dude.
What if I only have one reel and like to throw lots of different types on worms ??
Great video love the tips 🎣
when’s the repower vid coming?excited for that one. but this is a very nice video
Scott, I would like a how to fish a frog video please. I can’t seem to get a bite, let alone keep one hooked if I do get a bite on one
Great tips Scott, thanks!
We want james
You should do these how to videos more often
Planning on making it a series for y’all
Pretty much how i learned to do it. Always tips and tricks when it comes to worming. Great info Man!
On the rod selection what action is recommended I have a heavy moderate 7’6 favorite sick stick in the same make I have MH fast 7’3 and 7 &6,’6” in a base pro model
This is a great vid Scott thanks for the tips👍
Fantastic video thanks Scott
Great video and tips. Where's the Senko?
We’re going to do a separate video on senkos!
I really like these types of videos because they always help you learn good fishing tips.
Always my go to on fishing tips, and Scott never fails to answer! Awesome video.
How do you know when to reel down and set the hook? A lot of times I think I’m missing them because I set the hook too fast. I feel a few thumps and rip it.
@Saturday7x yeah I don't have much luck with frogs either, I know you gotta let them take it for like 2-3 seconds before you set. Good place to practice worm fishing is on the weed lines, keep at it you'll run into a good day sooner or later and that'll build your confidence.
J S thanks man this is great info. I fished a ton growing up in east Texas I just started back and can’t seem to hook anything. I’m using a dobyns champion extreme 704c for my Texas rig. Between my Texas rig and frogs my hookup ratio is next to nothing. Missed 4 blowups couple days ago on lake Nacogdoches then turned around and missed 5 blowups on frogs on Rayburn the next morning along with 2 worm bites 😂 it’s extremely frustrating. Thinking about going to a loaded stock pond just to get the feel.
If you feel a bunch of thumps it's most likely bluegill or whatever pecking at it. Bass will usually be much lighter 1 or 2 thumps because they just inhale it in one swoop. Keep the line tight because if a bass inhales you'll start to feel some resistance, this takes practice to know because when bass eats it alot of times they don't immediately swim away so a good sensitive fast or extra fast rod tip helps. Reel down slowly until you have a fair amount of resistance and it's most likely a bass, then Jack um.
Great tips sir
