Nice video Gene. Your videos are high quality and always inspire me to be a better fisherman. It was such a pleasure meeting you today at Westbrook Supply Co where I got my first Kayak, Lure 11.5. I hope our paths cross again soon, especially while fishing. May God bless you.
Hey Gene just so you know, you can also take photos by just pressing the volume button on the side of your phone. Makes it not as awkward to hold and figure it might help out. People have probably said this before but just wanted to share in case they hadn’t! Hopefully it helps a bit!
first fish of the day …..from the time your right hand comes off the reel to the time the fish is in the net seems to be just shy of 2 seconds …. damnit man!!!!!!! go dawgs
Great video! That is my home lake I fish almost every day it's really tough sometimes. I saw your truck at stewarts Creek boat ramp and started checking your channel out. Been learning a lot from you thanks brother!
Great video ! I just fished my first tournament and came in 6th . I’m pretty happy with that and still learning a lot about tournaments and your videos help ! 👍🏼
J. Percy Priest has made many anglers want to sell their equipment, especially in the summer. Good job figuring them out. Sorry I'm so late to the party.
During your off season I would love to see you review your thoughts process on this tournament. Specifically the comments on thermocline, spring, spring running to cooler water and current on the bank.
I've been fishing the Cumberland past few days throwing everything in the box at em and only got one smallie August is the worst month for bass fishing in TN and by the way go dawgs!
Congrats, Gene! Been watching since those white rod days with BR. haha. From a very experienced angler, I refer all your videos to people I meet that are just starting out and experienced anglers alike. I work in a sporting goods store so that's a lot. ;) Take care, buddy.
Great video.you should do a video on how to catch crappie.every time i go kayak fishing I end up talking g to other kayak fisherman and ask about crappie spots and they always say they don't know how to catch em but they want to learn.
hey brother idk if you would remember me whatsoever but we met a few years back at the bassmaster when it was in Knoxville last time. I have the pic somewhere of us just gotta find it. I was wondering if you had a discount code for Dakota lithium by chance or for any other of your gear. second thing I wanted to ask is if you could do an update on your gear as in rod and reels and if any changes have been made to the yak. I just got the new crescent shoalie and just kinda trying to gather as much rigging information as possible. I've been using 13 reels and rods since I met you and love them. just want to know if you had the time to show your set ups and your favorite lures possibly as well. if not it's all good brother! keep up the great work. you're literally the reason I started bass fishing. I always chased pike trout and walleye but I'm all bass these days! so I appreciate you man!
@flukemaster you should try bassmaster classic or elite series gene I think you could pull if off 😉 🙂👍. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's said this to you. Try acquiring a few more big sponsors then go for it brother
Curly tail worms Texas rigged and do a slow retrieve back to you with occasional twitch and pops of the rod has always worked for me. Green pumpkin, June bug, watermelon type color's.
Gene, never, ever say a fish is "twelve and a half". Any fish in the 12-1/16" all the way to 12-15/16" is a "foot and a ___". So yours, Foot and a half. Verbal clickbait, it sounds better, but aint lyin'. (I'm jokin' with ya, btw.) Gotta say, I love that you're genuine. Lot of the fishing TV shows, and YT channels, you'd think they were just seining them in, no such thing as a slow day or a day where six hours of fishing resulted in a couple bites and a sore elbow. Nobody talks about that. Makes guys like me who genuinely suck feel even worse. I like that you're real and you don't mislead people to think fishing is a one-cast/one-fish exercise.
If anyone on here knows how to get in touch with one of these people one of their kayaks fell off of the trailer and I am taking it to Section Alabama police department
You have helped me learn so many tricks of the trade since I've switched up from salt water to bass fishing .....thank you and God bless

Nice going, congrats!
Fished a tournament out there last night. Someone came in with 3 fish weighing 14.5. It's a tuff lake but does produce some good sacks..
During your off season I would love to see you review your thoughts process on this tournament. Specifically the comments on thermocline, spring, spring running to cooler water and current on the bank.

do you need backing when using braided line

Excellent
Percy Priest is one of them lakes. Good job on that lake 💪🏻
I never realized how loud motor boats were until I started kayak fishing.
What do you recommend to throw on a hot day
Curly tail worms Texas rigged and do a slow retrieve back to you with occasional twitch and pops of the rod has always worked for me. Green pumpkin, June bug, watermelon type color's.
A bag of ice, fish love cooler water. As a matter of fact, after the ice in your cooler melts - dump that in too, they love all kinds of cooler water.
Thank you very much
Grats!
Go Dawgs
also I wanted to see if you knew of any single kayak trailers that won't break the bank
Nice!!!
nice video
It happened on Highway 35 around 2:00 and again I'm taking it to section Police Department
