yeah I appreciate that Scott so let's get into a little bit of some stories because I know you got to have some epic stories so of all of the fish in all the years is there any one fishing story one fish that still stands out above everything else
8:37
I have one that is when I first figured out my cold water scent.
8:41
We had a really weird November year where the water got super cold.
8:45
The weather outside got into the teens every day for a week.
8:48
And we hadn't really had a big rain yet, so all the fish were still stacked in tidewater.
8:53
And I'm on this river and we're fishing the tidewater and the water got into the low 40s and into the 30s.
8:59
And I will tell you, we had a week that it was like playing a video game on God mode.

How did that obsession start? Like what made you gravitate towards bait like that?
