Ask A Pro A Question

[Glenn]

Hey folks!

I have the opportunity to interview some pros 1-on-1, and I want to include your questions. Literally.  As in "Jake from Spokane, Washington asks...."

 

So PM me your questions and be sure to include your real name, city, and state, and you'll get to see your questions answered in an upcoming video!

[Glenn]

Here's your chance to speak directly to a pro.

Gary, from Illinois, wants to know if Gerald Swindle still uses Dude Wipes.

[IndianaFinesse]

Is this for the same video you were planning on making a few months ago when you put this same topic up?

[Glenn]

Yes.  Why do you ask?

[Bass Turd]

Danny from San Antonio asks how many casts do you think you make per day in practice or a tournament? And or do you have a "fishing specific" exercise and nutrition program?

Just didn't want to send the same question request twice, and I wasn't sure if I had missed the ask a pro a question video.  Thanks for making the vid, I just wanted to clarify.

[Darren.]

Darren from Hampton Roads, VA asks if you have suffered

from, and if so, how you deal with "fisherman's elbow"?

[riverbasser]

Sean from Columbia, AL asks " what would you say you do during prep, practice, or tournament day that sets you apart from the other anglers?"

[Kris2016]

Kris2016 from Maryland asks............."If you are scheduled to fish a lake/river that you have not had the chance to pre-fish or haven't fished in a long time, what are the three most important things you look at?"

[Brayberry]

Brandon from Suffolk, Va asks - What modifications do you do to your lures before you use them, especially more less known ones?

 

[eyedabassman]

Dan from Blue Eye Mo. how do the pro's know witch bass are catchable or not catchable that are on beds?

[Gundog]

Bob from Mahanoy City, PA would like to know during a tournament when do you know you should give up fishing a pattern or lure and try something else. And what factors do you consider when making that change.

[McAlpine]

Chris from Charlestown, IN wants to know...  From watching pro tournament anglers, it is common to see them rip into an area, cut the engine, drop the trolling motor, jump on deck, grab a rod and start casting on full auto.  And amazingly, you can see them start to pick up fish or catch a couple.  If they catch a couple shorts or nothing, it seems just as quickly they are back in the seat and ripping out of that area.

 

So, is this behaviour based upon experience or scouting?  Generally is this because the pro has already scouted out the lake, has a few spots to hit during the day and is cycling through them looking for the timeframe the fish are feeding and active in this area? 

 

It's interesting to see a pro come into an area, make only a few casts and quickly leave.  I've always wondered exactly what was behind it.
