Greg, I enjoy watching you fish. I’ve had to give up bass fishing I ruptured two disc in my low back in 1988. Due to bad doctors and my own being a hard head, the time Iberween 1988 - 2003, caused the disc to calcify. Suffice to say, the doc had a tough time making it where I can walk,
I am thankful to be upright but the nerves in my legs took a beating they cause tremendous pain. Still praying for a cure. God bless and I enjoy watching you catch em’. Later, DavidE
I'm almost positive that for the flipping setup he was using in this video he was using a Quantum Smoke reel with an 8.1:1 gear ratio. For this style of fishing you'd want an 8:1 ratio reel, or 7:1 at the very least. The Smoke comes in an 8.1:1 ratio so I can't imagine he'd be using anything other than that.
Hackney is my absolute favorite! Hey Hack, how about just keeping the pack of soft plastics in your pocket or atleast leave em on the front deck and not have to dig under the hood every time you need a bait.
Seriously, I watched a video where he was talking about how he was very efficient and it helped him to get more casts in a day. The whole time doing the same thing, going for a fresh bait in storage. You know what's going on when the one you're using is shot. Keep em close, I do!
Oklahoma City Bass Fishing every time I watch him I think the same thing. But he’s caught 100x more fish than me in my life so he probably knows more than I do lol
@Gary Crotch- When did Houston uproot and move? Why not say this is Dallas or San Antonio? Lake Conroe is conveniently located between Conroe and Montgomery, Texas, neither of which has a damn thing to do with Houston. In fact, Houston is not even in the same county as Lake Conroe. Do you call Andy Montgomery Andy Houston or Andy Dallas? I think he'd slap the snot out of you if you did. Are you sure Hackney, Crochet and Lavigne are from Louisiana, not Michigan? That Crochet fella sounds like a Yankee.
I like Hackney but I'm a stickler for the way that a fish is returned to the water. Anyone that drops them like that I call them out on it. Even if it is inconvenient I go out of my way to put them back correctly. Even in my videos, I'm sure to put them straight into the water. I wish BASS would set rules for fish release. That's disappointing.
I love watching this type of fishing, but I really hate the disrespect shown. Not just this guy, but most of the videos like this. It seems to be a trend of just "slinging the fish" if it doesn't suit him. I see the younger guys do it too, and I assume they are just replicating what these guys do. Would it hurt him to just put it back properly? I'm not getting sentimental about the fish, it's just a shocking show of disrespect in general. Is this how these guys treat everything else in their lives?
Theses guys have caught and released fish for decades with an extremely low mortality rate. I'm not sure bass have emotional feelings. However, if they did this would not be one of disrespect but rather, happiness. Due to the fact that he is free, alive, and not on someone's dinner plate alongside the hush puppies. Now, you go on and kiss Hillary's liberal ass some more, try not to tell other professionals how to do their job, and continue eating what I could only imagine is anything but meat, you whinney little man..... I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt by calling you a man.
Shawn Edwards Im not a liberal and I agree, he also ruins the fish's slime coat by measuring it with a dry stick, you dont know anything about the fish, just stick to watching and not doing bud
I too also agree you should put the fish back more carefully than just chucking them back. I do understand that it’s the classic and you’re in a hurry and ready to get the next cast in but chucking the fish back like that can do some harm, especially if it’s in low water and they hit a stump
The pressure from the hook set and the turning of the bass' head and jawbone is much worse. There is greater probability that you severely hurt/damage the fish with a hookset than dropping into the water ( ya know where it can breathe again). Did no one notice that some of the bass he hooked traveled through brush, out of water under their own body weight?

Superb Video!
Watched this probably ten times..
FANTASTIC!! loved it
"It wasn't a giant, it was only 6 or 7 pounds!" ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Lmao that's a giant and he needed it bad!!
This guy is a TALKER, and I love it
He’s making me nervous dying those plastics and then laying them on the front deck
Zac Thomas he makes a lot more money than us bud but I’m nervous too lol
Hack is the man .He thinks like a pro thats why hes so good
what speed reel are u using 27.1
I'm almost positive that for the flipping setup he was using in this video he was using a Quantum Smoke reel with an 8.1:1 gear ratio.

thanks for the video. love watching hack attack fish. always learn something.. he seemed a bit stressed out though.
Pretty sure that crappie has no lip left...that hook set is lethal
Great video seen it several times!!! I Fish alot!!! #RippinLipsInc.
Great fishing guy!!
What is the rod especification, that you are using?
Hack attack is the Man
Could you imagine the EP's pulling these guys over to check to see if they have a fishing licence? That would be hilarious!
awesome footage. will some of this be on epsn2 when it airs?
He's a talker so I guess I'm going to have to eat every chicken in this joint.
What kind of sandals does hack wear I know it’s keens I have tendinitis in my feet and fishing a lot flairs it up on that trolling motor every day.
Oh look @10:00 the Hack knows how to lip bass ...... most entertaining, down to earth angler !!!
Anyone know what the name of Ryan Lavignes weigh in song was ... Maybe a long shot but just wondering if anyone knew
The Hack is one of my favorites. What rod are you using? I love the action on it.
Is this BASS footage? Great stuff!!
crazy hook set .
What kind of rod and lure weight?
I have had a good time in Korea.
That stick caused him to lose that hog the got danget one

Hackney is my absolute favorite!

Everyone’s got their ritual

Good advice but damn he treats the bass like shit lol more respect for something thats making you money😂
Oklahoma City Bass Fishing every time I watch him I think the same thing. But he’s caught 100x more fish than me in my life so he probably knows more than I do lol

Derek Walker that’s why we at home and he in the classic.

Pitching and jigging everyone else is going to get smoked

I treat the fish with more respect than my wife lol
This guy and Kevin VanDam are the only interesting commentary. Everyone else boring
Fuckin bad handling with the bass...
I agree, I show the fish more respect than my wife lol

Shawn Edwards let me guess your in your late 50s and a grumpy old man huh?

Americans... its says everything. Can you show more respect for fishes ? Be more gently ?
I show the fish more respect than my wife
Bassmasters has become an ADD fest.

no good
I just dont like this guy.
