I feel like this study showing that bass infact don’t move much should change the rules of some tournaments. No more weigh in’s miles away from the fishes territory, must be weighed and released immediately instead.

I’m with you Jay. I too am an old fisherman at 87. Yes I have a bass boat with some electronics, but they are very dusty from little use, only in new waters. I’m very old school and enjoy finding fish the old ways, with old lures, some homemade. I wonder where it will end. We need to get back to basics, enjoy the sunrise, enjoy wildlife, forget the electronics. You may be surprised at what you see and hear

Great stuff as always! If I were a bass, I would 100% move to featureless flats too following alien abduction and surgery 🤔

Really enjoyed your video and study. I also like your reverence for bass fishing. I'm 75 and have been fishing for black, smallies, and guadalupe bass for 68 years. I consider myself very lucky to have fished for bass without the current technologies that "catch" most fishermen. Learning from old timers throughout my travels, I'd always would ask them what their favorite lure was and why. The "why" helped me understand bass movements and tendencies. I believe there are many secrets still out there. Some have to do with techniques, weather conditions and attitude. I'm saddened sometimes seeing some "fishermen" treat bass and bass fishing as a business. Sometimes, sun rises and sun sets outweigh focusing on technology and numbers. Some of my fondest memories recall the ones that got away. And, there were many. I've been blessed to have fished many of the fine bass lakes of Texas: Medina, Calaveras, Conroe, Falcon,, Amistad. I just fished Lake Powell and had great luck finding some nice smallies. Take Care, and thanks for the study. I've always had good luck finding fish where others never went. Paul

Thanks for the shoutout in the comments, was a fascinating set of interviews

Tyler the amount of work and resources you must have dove into is honestly insane. Thanks so much for all your hard work and dedication to educating your fans and followers. Absolutely Remarkable job Tyler! Damn dude

Hey, that’s me at 1:22 ! That was the fish that won the Bassmaster Open on the Co angler side in 2019! Awesome video 👍

I am 69 yo. Have fished since I was 8 yo. I only bass fish. I have done any and all to catch big bass. My equipment is quality. My patience has been earned. Once I find or suspect an intersection or bass trail I will anchor and present worms both T & shakey and jigs. I will fish for hours. Sometimes all day. I tell you it is a technique few will do. Earning patience is tough business. What this video shows is we are being schooled. Learn to change. What you think is not what it is, sometimes. Fishing today is harder than years past. Harder to me means to change how we fish. The bass are reacting to us. We need to adjust our preconceived notions. Thank you very much for this video.

The flats point is really interesting. In saltwater fishing, flats are a common place to look for fish. I had to learn that coming from my bass fishing background. Fish might sit next to one pothole in a sea grass flat, or in small little contours on the flat. Maybe the bass are doing a similar thing, hiding in almost imperceptible holes, or next to one stump where they can ambush migratory baitfish

Definitely an interesting study but I definitely think they need a larger sample size before we draw too many conclusions. I'd be interested to see them do this study on different water body types and in northern lakes where they aren't the primary predator species. Great video!

This was awesome! Thanks for taking the time to put together/gather and share with us such great info on bass! 🙌🏾🤙🏾

This is by far, one of my favourite bass fishing channels, even though I'm from South Africa, and our waters are not as huge nor as deep as those in the USA. Its still amazing how I always learn something new from you, everytime. This particular video has to be one of the most informative videos on the migration patterns of bass. And to condense it into a 20min video, that we can still understand is nothing short of brilliant. RESPECT.

The only “rule” a bass follows is there are no rules. So many times you do everything right and fish the perfect bait in the perfect spot and come up empty but make a crap cast and hook a tank that “shouldn’t be there” Awesome video , very informative

I predominantly fish Toledo Bend. My best spots are structureless areas that have specific pieces of cover, like big stumps or brush pile. This video basically explains why! Great video!

I love these kind of studies, thank you to all who were a part of the project, really great information!!!

Another great source of info that will better equip us in analyzing our body of water. Approach techniques, bait choices, possible locales, all of these are now subject to further analysis wherever we may find ourselves. Thanks as always for sharing your work for our benefit!

Great video. Thanks for the information. Makes me feel better as a bank angler when I can’t always find a way to a juicy point, dock, pads or some structure and I’m stuck fishing featureless banks.

My youtube subscriptions are mainly focused on bass fishing channels and this by far the most informative and interesting episode I've ever seen for years. Thank you very much. 🙏

My mind is blown! Thank you so much for the countless hours spent on this video.
