MAN THIS LAKE WAS TOUGH! How is the fishing where y'all are from?
It's very easy if you know what the pattern is but most of the time we catch them in the reeds or lily pads and even drop offs.
Do you know pat shlopper
It’s been good on lake istapoka
Getting some big small mouth while walleye fishing up here in WI. Fish are moving into deep wintering holes .They haven't stopped feeding , just getting ready to nap till spring ! Pool 6 Mississippi river !
18 mph wind and crystal clear water, 52 degrees. It's not a consistent bite now.
The best of the best!!!!!!
Little fish would be a good luck charm for the place your fishing.
It was a striped bass but I call them stripe
Dude how bout that damn deer? Good job bro
Dude it’s hilarious watching Scott talk to us, and everyone else is like “duh whatever” guess it’s too early in the morning! Hahahah love you guys
I miss brandon
The stripes on a sand bass are straight but a hybrid has zig zag stripes. Ture fact. 100%
Sand bass 100%
That’s a striped bass
I’d love it if you said what bait you use throughout the video. Even just as you pick it up. Or, in the video description. I can see how you twitch, reel, and pause those baits, but I don’t know what they are!
My family lives on that lake. I want to fish it so bad
One thing I've learned from the house walk thru and practice vids is Castledine doesn't really like ol Billy. lol
Oh and every house y'all rent NEEDS a intercom system.
No wins cmon Scott your a legend
Sand bass. The Lake Lewisville is full of them.
Rattle trap is the best thing for that lake
I fished lake Lewisville last month for a high school bass fishing tournament and i caught one that was 2.81 off rocks but its hard the lake is know for small fish
What does a person got to do to get a fishing trip with you
You haven’t fish canyon lake in Texas. That’s a tough lake!
Awesome video. Especially love the Vids with Billy in them love that guy. Billy you rock.
Roland your still the man.
@7:20 You can interrogate him all week. “Tell me where your friends are!”
😂😂😂
Seen you driving down 121 last Saturday!
Why don’t I see your name on bass master live
I am pretty sure I know every spot and brush pile you were fishing! Ive hit many of them in my Yak several times throughout the year. In fact I was living were those lofts were before they emminent domained us. That marina has given up a lot of 8-10 pounders over the years. You missed a great spot thats always a winner for me thats almost directly across from those lofts on the north side of the lake at Oaklawn Park (park is closed to public). Its a submerged rocky point that comes off the shore. North side is shallow and gently slopes...the east side drops pretty quick and there are a lot of stumps there in about 12-18ft that are 2-4 ft high on the bottom. Few locals hit that spot and its the first spot I go to! I kill 'em on a jigging slab or Chatterbait with a fluke on it!!!
Everytime billy pops up I feel like if I asked him what's 2x2 he would say potato lol...
You know I LOVE that the tournament season has been moved back. Watching the best in the world chase the easiest bite (pre-spawn, spawn, post spawn) from Florida to NY every year isn't really showing us why pro's are pros. I want to see what you do one bad lakes in the toughest times of the year. Show us why your the best. Do what we can't.
🙏 for your ✌.... you can do it...
This guy sounds like Theo von
Ay Ima be down at lake Okeechobee this weekend you trying to meet up to give me pointers on fishing I’m an amateur fisher who wants to get good at it
Upper niagara is still fishing good for slob smallies. Trophy season. 1 fish over 20 inches. I wouldn't keep any bass when the river is full of nice walleye to eat. A white bass and a sand bass are the same fish.
Tomorrow is NOT gone billy !
"Illegal, But im with it"... hahahahaha
i just want to catch fish!> i feel that.. my motorcycle was having electrical issues for the past few months.. finally got it fixed now.. and of course.. its tough fishing now.. skunked the past few times out on shore.. but hey cant get em if we aint trying.. i just been slow dragging or weightless but no luck.. usually thats all i do from the banks anyways.. gl out there. the worst part of fall winter.. its dark by time i get off work so just getting to lake is a pain sometimes during the week. one bonus though.. its colder so the lake is less packed on weekends usually especially if it isnt the nicest weather out. nice ones.
Lake Lewisville. baitfish will be jumpin and swirlin, bass be jumping out of the water like dang great white sharks, and you'll still catch NOTHING. I kayak fish Lewisville a lot and it's TOUGH. but that much better when you do catch one
I feel like the cat is out of the bag now. The secret to Billy being Billy is 12oz cans of Mountain Dew.
The Cayman Islands is easy to catch fish
125th? May want to start focusing more on fishing than videos.
That's the Justin Rackley white bass
Billy is the coolest ever..
Even the pond fishing has been off here in North Texas this fall...but the turtle bite is ON!
Should have gone to sheels instead of bass pro.
I'm 15 and I recognized all of those songs
Please do not take a fish tank around with you. A 50 gallon tank would barely be large enough for him. It would cause the fish so much stress in moving and then putting them back. You greatly increase the chance of the fish dying for no reason. If fish are going to die it should be for lunch or bait.
@Scott Martin I like the idea of you guys having it in the tour house. At least it wouldn’t go to waste. I think Billy would eat it without being told it was chicken.
@Scott Martin Southern Fried
“For no reason”...that fish could have the time of his life hanging with us...
We could just eat him
Martin I caught alot under the bridge 423 in the colony but weather seems tough and now we got rain
Hey Billy not sure how I feel about the stash
Looked up the results from the tournament. Wow. That’s a tough one
That’s so funny. I know your second spot well. Over there at the end of the dam by pier 121
Your personal little pet for the trip, that's funny. Goodluck out there
im still shocked at the catastrophic beatdown this lake gave you after this practice, you have caught more in your practice than i have in 2 weeks on lay lake , although i did have one epic day , but beside that you easily caught way more for the last 2 weeks, so bad i dont think im going to fish the open as it stands now, i will not make my final decision until the last minute
That was a white bass the sand bass have a yellow belly but look the same white bass get bigger than sand bass and hybrid bass look the same as white bass but they get bigger. Good luck also love the videos and congrats for Jacob on the monster buck.
love the way billy used the sofia to keep his portable bed closed,,,,,we need more footage of him,,,,,,he is truly a naturally gifted comedian!
Well you had the waypoints to at least cash a check!!
Don’t keep an aquarium for bass, the ammonia cycle will not work and you’ll be harming the fish. None the less it’s never advised to release a kept bass.
When we started fishing it was all about having fun. We tend to forget that. I really think we catch more fish when we fish for fun. Keep it up Scott, nice work
On your last video when I made the comment “good luck with Lewisville” it was not an expression, I know that lake. It can be brutal.
Will you do a tutorial on how to get the colorized depth lines on your Garmins. I can’t figure it out
Congratulations to your son, that was a awesome animal
Thank you
Scott swiped somebody's lure!
🤫
Billy Gotta Bass, even bigger than Scott's on the first day, and Scott put it in the video! Will wonders never cease?
😂
It's great to see you come to the greatest state, my home... Texas!!!
I actually like it in Texas..just not Lewisville lol
White bass
👍🏻
Ray Roberts is tougher
@Scott Martin Roberts fishes good from mid February through May, there should be some huge sacks in the classic, I think we will see several 30 lb sacks
😳
It was a white bass, which is also a sand bass, LFG catches tons of them there...
I’m so curious to see what happened day 1! I assume the fact that it was cloudy and windy kept you from fishing the brush piles effectively. Those almost always play.
Correct..the clouds and wind after sunny slick hurt it bad..but still thought it would be ok
Lake Whitney is has and alway's been hard since that allege.
Lol I was going to say something about billy mustache but I am going to keep it to myself lol 😂 😂😂😂
🤦♂️
we call it lovely lake lewisville for a reason
Lake Humble
Pretty sure that was a Striped Bass @ 25:00, they get pretty big too, that one was a small guy.
so we are not going to talk about the green pickle rick lure?
What green lure..🤫
Hey you know it’s a good meal when there’s a roll of TP on the kitchen table!!! 😂😂
😂
That was definitely a sand bass which is a white bass
Welcome to our world fellows. Nice to see ya’ll here
i so hope you get to the classic... BASS needs you... wishing you the best of luck... go get em Scott... from New Hampshire
out here in az we call those stripers aka the bass you caught with the stripe pattern
10:10 that is a chartreuse pepper bubble fry. That is money in Texas.
Hickory creek side is good fishing
How's that Yamaha working out so so far this year?
Its working great
Listening to Scott's excitement on day one of practice is a gut blow to me knowing how his day 1 of the tournament went. :(
😔
It was the water management of the lake that help create the tough fishing ! They should of left the rain we received in October rise and then stabilize the water level instead of dumping it. Lake would of opened up much more . Not sure why they dumped that water before a BASS event...made no sense. I emailed a complaint to them
Most water management organizations seem to do the opposite of what would be good for a fishery
I swear I always do good at lakes people say suck. But I suck at lakes that are supposed to be real good. I catch good fish every time at lewisville.
I thought lake fork was the toughest lake in Texas?
No way
Bring back the UFC fighter!
Awesome, that’s about 20 minutes from us.
Scott u finish in top 20 next tournament or should I say last tournament u should be in top4 and get invited to the elite
Ready to get this over with🤙🏻💪🏼
Yeah!!! Billygottabass and teaches math. Tough fall but you guys have to stay positive.
Hillary could have quadruple the bag u finished with , sorry bout the bad tournament Scott . But u can’t deny Hillary would have beat ur bag..
Agree
I am crying right now. Yall are cracking me up. I am recovering from covid so these videos are really good to watch quarantined in my room. Great video!
@Scott Martin thank you been a rough one. But the Lord is faithful. Be praying for you!
Glad I can help hope you get to feeling better 👊🏻
You better pray that Biden doesn't get to be President or you won't be fishing at all Scott. I'm hoping that you guys get to keep fishing. 💯👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
Da hell you talking about son? First off, Biden won the election. He will be President. Secondly, Biden ain't gonna do nothing but maybe help clean the water in 20 years or so. If Trump taught me anything it's that Presidents aren't really that important. Governors have more power over you than anyone else.
Sand Bass
The fall bite has been way off this year. The bass are not feeding like usual and are definitely not where they are supposes to be.
Scott, I've taken tons of Sandies outa that lake, they eat real good.
what’s a top speed on the z520 with the 250sho and i was wondering how far do you trim the motor up once you plane off.
all those texas lakes this time of year are going to be white bass Olympics
Great video! And White Bass.
You really do need to get a fish tank and put the first smallest fish in it and name it. Whichever one of you guys that catches the smallest one first has to name it and put your last name with the fish. That first one that you caught would be named Lewis Martin. 🤣👍🦈
That would be awesome to have a pet bass for the week. Maybe it will give you good luck. Keep up the great work and enjoy your time on the water. Everyone is so funny
You guys have the best of the best and you can't catch fish the excuse we use if we had a top notch graphics or the top notch trolling motor or the best reels what do you guys use? Not trying to be a smart ass
I can't believe someone hasn't beat the hell out of Billy by now.
It getting real close to that..lol
if you wanna be a pro you have to be able to catch em all year round, all over the country.
