I watch most of the main ones. Jon B, Lunkers, AP bassin, Lake Fork Guy and Sea money fishing. I enjoy them all. I think a lot of the hate comes from jealousy IMO. When I can't get on the water, it is nice to watch someone fish in the mean time. I really only watch Jon B, the others are not my style. Jon seems to be the most passionate about fishing. Good with a camera, but will fish anything and everything because he truly enjoys it. I had that passion about it when I was his age (long time ago), would fish any pond/creek/puddle I could find. Maybe that's why I prefer to watch his stuff over anybody else's. I mean, fishing creeks in Dallas with a flyrod is pretty badass. And catching fish. I'd fish with the guy. People can call Rackley a sell-out, but they're not in his position, with brain-surgery bills, a kid on the way, etc... he's trying to make a living. Kinda partial to him, seeing as he's an Aggie, and I think he's a helluva stick. Just wants to pay the bills.

I don't watch YouTubers anymore but I used to watch Tactical Bassin' somewhat. Never really got into watching them. I have nothing against them though. Some of them are really helpful!

I watch a lot of the bigger YouTubers.
I think it boils down to what you are looking for in videos. If you want educational/instructional videos then Tactical Bassin is hard to beat. For entertainment the G-Squad can put out some good ones. I like Scott Martins videos because they offer a glimpse into the day to day grind of fishing at the pro level.
They all offer something, you just have to know what it is you are looking for in a video.
About the only one I cant watch is 1rod1reel or what ever his name is. Dude doesn't seem to have a off button. Its like he drinks a case of Redbull before each video.

Tactical Bassin for me. Matt and Tim are really a whole level above any others I watch with broad geographical usefulness, very in-depth analyses. I take more away from their videos I think than all others.
Flukemaster's older videos would be tops for new anglers wanting to learn the basics. He is still a great teacher, just much more commercial in his efforts now, more "show" and more product promotion. No problem for me with that, at all, I'm a capitalist!
*Just curious??? Whose voice is that that LFG falls into on his videos? Is it actor, Ryan Reynolds? LFG does have established fishing credentials (nat'l champ college angler, as I recall) and he appears to be attempting to bridge between serious content (he has some good stuff) and general entertainment videos.

Thanks for the shout out on my stuff Stetson, I watch a bunch, LFG is entertaining, TacticalBarssin has some great underwater footage that is great to watch. Also Kyle Cortania from OK post some great fishing, actual fishing, vids. Just FYI, to get ANY $$ out of youtube you have have literally hundreds of thousands of followers like LFG, seems like he has over 400,000 subscribers. From what I have read you get about $2.70 per 1000 views....I get about 800 a day, so if I monetized I'd be knocking down a big $50 a month. If you aren't huge, or selling Mystery Tackle Box, hats, shirts, etc. you aren't even paying for your camera and time.

I see some of these responses and makes me think my vids are [censored] compared to those other guys (lol) but my people like my commentary I guess. I did however have my first fan ask for an autograph at Bass Pro. That was pretty cool.
When I am not fishing I am thinking about fishing. And mostly what I should have done differently my last trip! #Brockstarama

The "Googan Squad" Jon B Lunkers TV (Robert) Lake Fork Guy Alex Peric Andrew Flair
Fish a lot of our Private Water Fishing lakes in their videos, especially Lunkers TV (Robert) has many videos on our lakes. I talk to those guys every so often. At the bass master classic event these guys were celebrities, people were passing by pros to see these guys. I think thats sad and an indication where we are headed as a society.
