BigmouthForever23 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Look up Bigmouth and Bigmouth Forever. These contain some amazing underwater footage that captured bass in their natural habitat. Here's a clip from the latter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Znc0wCeUACc 2 Quote

MN_Bassin Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Grumpy Old Men is not a bass fishing movie, but a hilarious comedy centered around ice fishing. Quote
JoePhish Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 It's not a movie but it should be. Try reading Carl Hiaasen's "Double Whammy". Quote
Super User the reel ess Posted July 25, 2015 Super User Posted July 25, 2015 There's one about BASS that followed Rick Clunn and Takahiro Omori among others as they went on the tourney trail. It showed Omori going fishing with Clunn to learn from him. Omori didn't even fish, just observed Clunn while he fished. In fact, he didn't speak any English at the time. I saw it on Sundance or IFC years ago. It was pretty good. But I can't remember the name now. Quote
southernson1989 Posted July 25, 2015 Author Posted July 25, 2015 I can't even fathom how many times I've seen the grumpy old men movies. My favorite part is when he puts the fish in Walter matthaus car. Quote
FishingMN718 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Southern trout eaters is supposed to be pretty good. It's mostly about how to fish swimbaits but it also documents lure makers, big fish and just a lot of cool stuff. Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted July 26, 2015 Super User Posted July 26, 2015 Look up Bigmouth and Bigmouth Forever. These contain some amazing underwater footage that captured bass in their natural habitat. Here's a clip from the latter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Znc0wCeUACc Yes, they're amazing! Especially the 9 pound bass sucking in and out crankbaits without Homer feeling anything........ Quote
