I’m back in Maryland where I grew up, fishing farm ponds and back to the basics! No 75,000 dollar bass boat, no forward facing sonar, just a couple of lures in a pocket and a spinning rod! No, I’m not catching monster bass but when I was 12 years old a 1 1/2 pounder was a trophy to me and now years later, considering the nostalgia, it’s still a trophy!

What’s up Roland Martin. I’m one of those who still fishes from the bank and I just want you to see how I flip and pitch in cover https://youtube.com/shorts/CdIMKY049-8?si=zQpUwfBKezi4wS2k. What’s your thoughts? Keep it up. Thanks
You had the best host! 😊
Man gotta turkey just chillin haha
This was a great one, love keeping it simple…
You just know if Roland Martin is standing next to a pond it’s got some big ones in there. That’s a guarantee.
Real fishing from a real fisherman.
Dude youre such legend, grew up watching ya, thanks for everything you've taught me & done for the sport !
You are a legend. I grew up watching you before I owned my first fishing rod. Saturday mornings with you and the rest of the early 90s gang are some of my favourite memories!
Great advice!
Been following Roland since the 70s!
God Bless!
Mr. Martin, I’d be honored to host you on any of the MD reservoirs…Loch Raven, Prettyboy, Liberty, Tridelphia, Rocky Gorge! Been tournament fishing these reservoirs for over 30 years. I’ve always heard you cut your teeth on these reservoirs. Let me know if I can take you!
You look mentally ill in the thumbnail
lures are fir finding fish .not a fan of anything else
Watching him wade out in those reeds reminds me of an opening scene in Glen Lau's "Bigmouth" series…Roland wading through some timber in Santee Cooper, pork chop side burns, & them shades. If yall haven't heard of or watched those videos, find them somehow, somewhere (eBay?). They were so influential in how I viewed bass and bass fishing. Also the under water cinematography & narration was epic!
Thanks for making this video. I Bank fish everyday!! Caught a gator on bank couple days ago 💪
I bank fish every week. I’m disabled and it’s the one thing I look forward to. I would love to be able to go out with you on Headwaters. The old school stuff works.
Use your favorite bait Roland. You’re famous for your frog technique. Happy fishing 🎣
Id love to see how well you do on lake Norman cause you make it look way too easy to find and catch fish 🤩🤩🤩
I watch a lot of Roland…this may be the best of his videos. I am a bank fisherman and deal with a lot of moss every time I go out. I keep trying to force all the lures in my bag but simple is ALWAYS BETTER.
Thanks Roland.
Another Marylander here. Some of my fondest memories are throwing worms, Rapalas and jitterbugs for pond bass👍
