He's said a few times that he is from Florida, but relocated to Alabama. When, IDK??

I really enjoy watching him also. I am starting to have a little trouble though, as I think he is starting to sell out to some sponsors. Hope I am wrong. Pop

Actually, I want to know what gear he uses as it has helped me in the past. I think he is just straightforward and does not hide his talents or methods. If I were in a fishing industry I would scoop him up though.

I hope that is not the case, as nothing turns me off worst than the blatant commercialism of so many "sportsmen". They try to hawk everything, even if they do not use it.

He tells what gear he is using. He has some ads in links under the video......and the more views he gets the more ads will show up in his channel......usually you can skip the ads.....but not always. I subscribe to his channel.....enjoy watching his videos. But it is not realistic to expect him not to cash in a little if his channel keeps growing. In a year and 5 months he has had over 2.3 million views for around 110 videos. He has almost 15,000 subscribers...which is not a lot. He is making a little money off of views but hard to say how much....but it is not a lot....and while I’m sure his channel will continue to grow....how far I don’t know......I don’t think he is going to ever make any substantial money. YouTube is a huge place. Millions of fishing videos. I agree he has a unique personality but one needs a whole lot of viewers to make real money on YouTube.

He doesn't have a sponsor. He's not paid to use any particular bait. He does have Mr Perry from Texas who provides him with jigs to use but I doubt any money has changed hands. He also uses brushpile jigs from up north. I think it's more of him promoing products and using the products he likes. I have a feeling there is a surprise coming though.

I subbed early on when I found him. Honest, humble, seemingly genuine man. I sincerely hope that he doesn't change a single thing. If he make a little money, that's great. I've got no idea of the amount of time and effort that is required to edit and produce a video, and I've got no issue with him being compensated for that effort.

What does "bother me," is when another channel trolls his subs begging for support for theirs (same fellow has trolled this site for the same.)

Build your own... if it's "worthy," you'll grow...
