This is the first footage we shot with Glen Freeman and Albert Collins teaching us all how to fish offshore structure. There is a ton of really good footage, too much for a single video or two, so we will post this over the next few weeks in 10-20 minute chunks. This gets better as we spend more time on the water together and they talk more and more openly, and talk about the differences between Sam Rayburn and Toledo Bend off shore structure fishing. This is video 1 in the series with two time Bassmaster Classic qualifier, Albert Collins, winning both Bass Nation Championship and Bassmaster Weekend Series National Championship, oh and he’s won a BFL & a Costa, and just weighed a 40.28 lb bag on Rayburn with his partner Clayton Boulware to win the TTT championship with two days totaling over 64 lbs. NOT to be outdone, our other stick, longtime Toledo Bend Guide Glen Freeman, who has won 11 times with FLW, 1 Costa event, and 9 of the 25 BFL events on Toledo Bend since 2001 (36% win rate!!!!)….these are two hammers, teaching us all how to do what they do best, structure fish, with your host Ken Smith asking all the questions you, my subscribers, submitted! Directly from Ken Smith Fishing world Headquarters, Zavalla Texas….also know as www.ZavallaVFD.com or Zavalla Volunteer Fishing Department!. There is a playlist here with these in order as they come out.

Over the next few weeks we will publish the entire day of fishing….great stuff

  1. This really is going to be good… been looking forward to it. Thanks for putting in the time, all three of you, to help out the guy like me who for the life of me cannot find those big ones offshore, at least in a short amount of time. But, as they said, that’s not going to happen. I don’t live close to Rayburn but if I did I’d need to be out there all the time, then my chances would be greater.

  2. Bravo very well done. I look forward to the rest of these. They are right their is tons of bent rod fishermen on both lakes and I hate that. Very interesting that a spoon was used to tell the contour and bottom thickness. Harold Allan would be a great guest on the same subject. I have been lucky enough to fish in a tournament with Glen. He has patience that I have never seen before. He used to do auto body work on expensive cars, before he and Harold got together. Thanks to you all for this effort you're putting into doing this.

  3. I also think a good guest would be Tommy Martin. As for questions for him would be back in the day how they scuba dived to see the deep grass and the ridges on T Bend. Just a thought

  4. Excellent video. I really like the idea of having two guys in the boat to bounce question off of. I really enjoyed it and can't wait to watch the coming videos.

  5. I tell folks all the time that finding ledge fish on the TN river lakes isn't that tough. Just bring plenty of sunscreen, hydration, gas money and patience. 🙂

    Great video by the way. Looking forward to the rest.

  6. Buck perry was from Hickory I lived about 20 miles from him but never saw him in person until I went to a seminar in Chicago suburb while I was in ,USAF.
