One of the best teachers I never had.

No better man to give fishing tips. I've watched you off and on for more years than I can remember. Great stuff Roland.

I'm 57 years old and it seems like I've watched Mr. Martin on TV all my life. My biological father is 90 years old and has never really been a dad as he ran out on our family when I was just 6 years old. I watch Mr. Martin and wonder what it would've been like to have him as a dad. Could you imagine the camping trips and fishing while growing up with Mr. Martin as a dad? Such a likable presence. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I've always been a fan.

I'm 64 and have been fishing almost 60 years and appreciate all of your fishing tips. Couldn't find your wealth of knowledge just anywhere. Glad you take the time to share.

I'm an old guy too. First met Roland at a fishing tackle show when I was a sporting goods buyer for a discount store chain in the late 70's. He knew all the new tricks and love to teach. Still enjoy his teaching.

When Mr. Martin gives you a tip, enjoy a trip to the bank, cause that’s where you can take it. We love ya, Mr Martin. Thanks for EVERYTHING!

He seems like one of the coolest guys on the planet. Somebody that I'd love to go fishing with, or just sit and listen to what he has to teach. I bet he's got some great stories to tell.

Roland we were at the Rio Negro lodge in brazil. you are very nice person. And treated everyone with respect. How’s the wife and manager? The owners father called me the piranha king. Because I caught over 100. You showed me how to make monkey paw knot. And a couple other things.If I had your number I’d like talking with you,to see if you have any knowledge of the people there.

Finally one guy who knows about the quality of the uni-knot! Tying this knot to everything! Only exception: FG for braid to fluo-leader and then uni again from fluo to steel-leader.

Thanks, Roland! I'm 56 and I've been watching and learning from you since I was a kid. NO ONE has taught me more about fishing than you. I really appreciate how much value you give to those who watch you.

Put me down as well. I'll be 50 and always remember watching Roland, Orlando Wilson, Bill Dance, the Linders, Babe Winkleman, and can't forget about Hank Parker. Learned a ton of tips and tricks I tell you.

Mr. Roland , i remember watching you as a kid in the 70's. Now at 54 i can watch you again. Thamks for everything fishing.

I've been doing it wrong for years! Thanks for your knowledge!

I'm an old guy too Roland and have watched you for years. You are an old school fisherman, you remind me of my Father, he would tell me," I am going to show you how to do this" If you find a better faster way, please show me. " Until you do that do it the way I just showed you". I tried many times to do it faster or better. Every time I would end up doing it the way he had shown me. The end of this video reminded me of that lesson I had learned years ago. Thank you, Roland, maybe the younger guys will listen and learn from your knowledge. OG

I'm almost 60, I learned how to tie a Palomar knot when I was 8 years old. The rest is history. :)

Hats off to Roland for fishing for a living, shooting and reloading for a hobby. Then sharing knowledge...

I am an old guy to at 72 yrs. and I learn something every time I watch your videos. Please make more if time permits. God Bless

One old guy who knows what Martin knows about fishing works. Old Michigan Fisherman 🤠.

Mr. Martin, you are a class act. Thank you so much for what you do.

Roland, you are the granddad I never had. Keep it up, "old guy"!!

Drink every time he’s says “not” or “knot” You’re the best Roland. This video was super simple and helpful!

When a man masters his profession, he recognizes that he will never quit learning and utilizing his experiences in new problem solving and if he can control his ego, he can relish in sharing his knowledge. Thanks Roland The old professor

Mr.martin..ive been watching you for a long time.i use to get my son to watch you on .t.v way back in the 1990s.. he just loved it and he got happy fishing because of your show.....thank you sir....my son has sense passed away but when I go fishing I fish for him..he loved fishing mostly because you taught him....you done the job that I couldn't...thank you Mr Martin.

Thanks for the do not clinch knot portion. I been using that forever. Never realized this.

Im 52 and watched you as a kid fish on t.v. I follow your son Scott and your granddaughter Hilary and now I just subscribed to your channel Mr.Martin! Definitely a wealth of knowledge coming from you and your family! Hoping to pass down what I learn from your family to mine when it comes to fishing! Looking forward to all your videos!

I've watched this guy since i was a kid. He's the best!!!

I'm an old guy too. Enjoyed RM on TV back in the day and am thankful to have him around now on KZread. Legend!

Always stay the teacher, I'm 70 years old n still learning new tricks, God bless, stay healthy n strong.

This gentleman came to an outdoor show in Worcester, Mass some years back. USA Marine was the place. He gave an awesome seminar but you could tell something was off. I was told by a local pro that Mr. Martin had a hernia but didn't want to disappoint his fans. He went back to Florida and had it fixed. God Bless you and yours, Sir !

I am the worst at tying knots. Thanks for making it simple. I just bought my first roll of braided line and these tips will help me tremendously.

Thanks Roland grew up watching you. Getting back into fishing after a long time break and use braided line. I was tying the old school knot we all grew up on and was losing lots if fish due to knot failure. I thought it was just me and I had to work on my knot tying skills. Know I know better.

Roland knows his fishing stuff. Comes across as knowledgeable & imparts his knowledge in an easy listening style without any hype. When he talks old school, old school has not gone out of fashion. It works for me. Love ya Roland.

Glad the see Roland Martin still out there. I'm 65 years-old now and I remember glomming on to everything he was saying since I was 14 years-old.

I'm 50 and remember watching you with my Granddad as a kid.

Just spent 40 minutes practicing Palamar, Double Uni and single uni loop knots. Thanks Roland.

I`m 80 now & used the clinch for years but knew it wouldn`t use it for braid so I learned the Palomar and I clicked this video just to start glad I did

Hey Roland Martin! My dad, Jimmy Fleming, fished with you at Bill Jones Fish Camp and the gang on the Diversion Canal of Santee Cooper many years back in the 1970's! I remember some of those characters to this day. Sarge, Odel, and Patsy(one of the cooks). We used to chunk floating Rapalas at night in the cuts of the canal when they were "pulling water" and caught some nice "Rockfish"(Striped Bass of Course). I'm living in Charleston--Frank

Excellent presentation. Simple easy to understand clear instruction. No silly loud music, no gimmicks, Well done!

You represent some of the best years of my life. Sunday late mornings in the 80s. I'm super stoked I found your KZread channel. Lots of sore lips cuz of you 😉, Thank you Sir.

Now I know how to make loop knot thnx for this video watching from Philippines 🇵🇭 👍

What a national treasure Roland Martin is! I’ve looked up to him for at least 40 years of my life.

I remember watching you, and Orlando Wilson with my dad growing up in the 80's. I still can pretty much recite the theme songs to both of those shows. My father was an avid fisherman, and pretty much gave me the bug and I am passing it along to my 9 year old son. Seeing these videos is almost like seeing an old friend again that you haven't seen in a long time. I really enjoy your insight, expertise, and your overall passion for fishing. I have to say we need more good ol' boys like you these days. Take care and I will see you around ol' friend. :)

Been around decades. He loves to teach and he still has the enthusiasm of a lil kid with a big fish on a cane pole. We all are better for what he conveys to the brother outdoorsman community. All the best.Cheers!

I’m 56 and grew up watching Roland on TV. Glad he’s on You Tube now. He seems timeless and doesn’t look old.😊

Roland, I'm an old guy too! (62), just started seriously fishing in the last couple of years in semi-retirement. Your videos have been so awesome in getting me up to speed, thanks! If you want to learn how to ski, come up here to NE, I'll teach you ;)

He hits all the senses with ; honesty, warm sincerety and aged humbleness!

Roland... it's time to order some more fishing line. Judging from the shelves behind you, you're running low hahaha Thanks for your videos! One of the only channels that I won't miss a single video.

I'm a 74 year old bass fisherman who learned something from you today ! Thanks for freely continuing to contribute your knowledge TO US, YOUR FANS ! Roland Martin TRULY IS " THE GREAT AMERICAN FISHERMAN".

Took up serious pike fishing and studied all the celeb anglers setting all their gear up, Knots and baiting, but I always struggled with braid and the clinch knot, after 100s of fishing videos this guy is the only one who has ever mentioned you can't use braid for a clinch knot, thanks buddy.

Roland thank you for taking the time to put these videos out for us. As much as you love teaching us we love learning from you. Great content! 🙏

I have enjoyed watching Roland Martin catch fish for as long as I can remember. He could always take lesser fishermen to school. Glad to see that we can get some schooling still. I'm an old guy too.

Man i’d love to take a day out on the water with roland. I remember watchin him slay bass on the weekends and then we would go float the powell river for smallies and redeye. A few hours would be a slice of heaven to me. Thanks for taking the time to share the info.

Twenty years ago I used to glue myself to the tv on a Saturday morning for the big three: Roland Martin, the 'Great American fisherman', Orlando Wilson, and Bill Dance. Good to see Roland has embraced the new technology and is back to share his wisdom. I have to expand my repertoire past the palomar knot to the uni and loop!

When I was little kid, back in the early 80's, my uncles, cousins, and I would watch your show on TV every Sunday. I recently got back into fishing and it makes me so happy to see that you're not only still fishing, but that your keeping up with times and sharing your wisdom here on KZread! I love you channels and your videos have helped me improve my fishing so much!. Thanks for doing what you do!!!

I met Roland many years ago during the ST. Lawrence river bass tournament. He took the time for pictures after the weigh in and trust me he was tired and stressed. A true Gentlemen. I was young and it really fueled my desire for fishing..

I have had a lot of problems trying to use the loop knot. You made it easy. Thanks RM.

Mr. Martin I have been a fan for decades, you sir are a class act and I'd love to fish with you some day

I too am an educator, and I think the key to Roland’s success is his teaching background. His ability to communicate his knowledge in a clear way is unmatched. Like a true educator, he encourages self-discovery and innovation after providing us the tools we need to be successful.

Roland, It's Trey from Lincoln I just met you at the Omaha boat sports and travel show! I've been watching your videos, and I'm learning lot!! You've always been one of my favorite fishermen! Thank you so much and GOD BLESS YOU!! Trey Fazel

As much as I hate braid, your video tutorials and coaching are leaning me closer to making the switch and upping my game. Thank You Roland! :)

I just wanted to say that I viewed this video several months ago. I have returned for a review and I find it very helpful. I had not used a loop knot in a while and forgot how to tie it. I thank you and you should know that your work has long-lasting value. I appreciate you and may God bless.

This man is a LEGEND in fishing every person fishing today for a living should thank this man for making the sport of fishing what it is today.....

Watching this again for the third time for fun. I think the Uni knot is one of the most brilliant ideas in fishing.

Sir you are a legend. I’m 48 and have been watching you on tv since I was a small kid. You are one of the greatest of all time.

Having a legend teaching how to tie a knot. Awesome 👍😊

Great video thanks Roland, been watching you since I was a kid.

awesome video sir...big fishing trip this week and was testing the clinch knot with the braid and it was not working.. kept coming undone.. then i found your video!!! thank you!!

Roland Never knew you were an Army veteran. Navy guy here. Thanks, for sharing. I have been watching you on Bassmasters since we came back from Iran in 1980. Fished as a kid with my dad, but stopped in my teens through my enlistment. Bassmasters got me back to fishing, and I've been ever since. My favorite picture is my daughter headed into her dorm freshman year with a fishing pole in each hand. Thanks for all the years!

Subscribed, you're a legend. I've been following you since I was 10 years old. God Bless, I'm 53 now......

I'm not a huge fan of micro guides either but have ended up with a few over the years. I learned the FG knot and it isn't an issue. The FG knot is difficult to learn, I bought a jig and can tie one in under a minute now. I recently learned the Palomar knot for braid and it is incredibly strong. I also have used the un I knot and it works as well, at least I haven't had one fail yet. The glue tip is something I will try, I carry super glue for other things. The uni loop knot you showed looks amazing I have been struggling to tie the loop knots. I have been tying the uni knot since I was a kid and can tie it blind folded so this interests me. Thanks for the tips.

Wow! Roland Martin! I remember you back when you were just a young buck and still had some color on the roof! ;-) I agree that a palmer knot is probably the easiest and best knot for braided line. But the cinch that my grandpa taught me, after you passed the end threw the eye that was made, then you past the end threw the loop that was just created before pulling it snug. It could also be made stronger by passing threw the last loop 3 or 4 times. Good to see ya again Roland.

Love ya Mr. Martin my dad said you are one of the best fisherman on the planet and he watched you on tv growing up. Now it's my turn. And I think your really good teacher my dad taught me the Uni knot Albright improved fisherman's knot and Bimini. Still can't get the Bimini but I guess since I am only eleven I am doing pretty good I will keep watching you so I can surprise him with knew knots like the Palomar thank you sir. My Dad is hard to please my mom says he is the typical Captain likes to yell and be grouchy unless the fish is in the boat. Wish I could spend more time with him to learn more but he says he gets land sick if he is on land for to long. What ever that means not sure. Well again thanks

Great to see you and this post Mr. Martin. You look like you are ready to get in that Bass boat and win a few more Fishing titles! GOD Bless .

Really appreciate your input, great to hear it from someone with so much experience on the water. Keep em coming Roland!

Great Video!! My son and I are always going back and forth on knots on braid. I always use the palomar and he always uses the clinch.

Wow the legend Roland Martin. Every sat morning as a kid I would rush to tv just to watch your show. I always wanted to meet you and get your autograph. Thank you for your professionalism in this great sport

Roland you are still a MASTER when it comes to fishing! Thank you the opportunity to learn what you are willing to teach.

Another great video Roland. The uni loop knot is a great idea. Thanks.

Roland thanks for helping with the knots greatly appreciated
