Legends of fishing. The likes of Roland Martin (https://wired2.fish/RolandMartinOutdoors) and the late Ron Lindner (https://www.wired2fish.com/news/fishing-icon-ron-lindner-passes-at-86/) put thoughtful smiles on our faces from their indelible contributions to the sport we love and their larger-than-life personalities. Lifelong fishing educators have seen it all, giving them the ability to transcend generations to deliver useful content for anglers of all skill levels. Wired2Fish caught up with Roland Martin at famed Lake Baccarac Lodge (http://wired2.fish/BaccaracLodge) for a lesson in structure fishing heavy jigs for magnum-sized bass.

Martin shares an excellent tutorial on using “the counting method” to approximate depth and the location of structure without a fish finder — useful information if you’re a bank or boat fisherman without electronics. He explains the differences between bite detection and setting the hook with jigs vs. worm fishing. Lastly, Martin discusses when he prefers using braid with a fluorocarbon leader over straight fluorocarbon or monofilament fishing line.

Roland Martin= The G.O.A.T.
I’d love for you to do one more tournament
Dang Son! That one-eyed bass beats my PB!
Learn a lot from Roland's YouTube videos. More one on one feel to them than I remember from the older TV series. Thanks Roland!
BEST salesman EVER!
Hey Roland how about a video on lure mods that helped you win tournaments? Many thanks 4 years of fishing knowledge passed on!!!
Awesome Roland!
Hey roland what kind of reel was that you were fishing with, look like the button was at the front of the reel?
The legend!!!
Grew up watching Roland Martin, remember Saturday morning flipping through the channels as a teenager and watching him and Bill Dance- great to see him still at it!
“When you feel nothing, set the hook”! Roland gives a lesson in one sentence and more bass get caught! I didn’t watch you enough as a kid, but thank you sir.
My leaders are too big and my rod tip is too high fishing my jigs. Learn something every time I’ve watched this guy since I was a kid.
The original GOAT!
Roland littering at the 3:55 mark. Anglers, STOP TROWING PLASTIC INTO THE LAKES if you can help it.
Legend. I used to watch Roland Martin when I was a kid!!!
👍👍
Great video! Appreciate the wisdom✊🏾
Roland is one for the ages! Always entertaining
I love being early
