In the interest of full disclosure, I'm 46 yrs old and I watch Jon B and Rackley (Lake Fork Guy) for the entertainment value and the fact that they let us see a part of their life besides fishing. Real people, not just some kids screaming on video. And while I don't care about some of the others as much (Peric, et al), they could be in front of a laundromat trying to score a nickel bag of laundry detergent so I'm thinking that fishing on video is not the worst thing in the world.

This is an interesting perspective as most on here seem to not be watching the YT crowd, yet there's hundreds of thousands of subs on their channels. Legions of youngsters who are watching clearly for the entertainment value and not necessarily to learn tips, tricks and techniques.
I think alot of folks on here have fishing rod envy.. theyre better sticks then them gosh durn youtubers..Id like to see a fish off between Lunkers and some of his biggest fans here.. Id image some people would off themselves when he smoked them ... P.S the more I think about it, i actually think theres money in this. If someone runs with it, I want my cut I would be willing to bet there are some that like to gamble and would probably entertain that idea.

I'm late to the party, but most of what I watch on YT are LFG and Tactical Bassin.
I'm 70 and have been fishing about 40 years, and I'm even now learning new techniques and baits from Matt and Tim at Tactical Bassin'. They've gotten me out of some long-standing ruts in my techniques and thinking patterns, trying new baits, and setting new goals for myself. That's important stuff, and Tactical does it for me. I'm planning to take a CA trip and fish with Matt if possible.
LFG, I just like Justin because in the face of adversity for a young man, both in deciding how to make a living doing what he loves, to being sidetracked by serious health issues, to other stuff... he seems to Aggie-up and take as much control of the situation as he can and work with it. And he shares his story in an interesting and entertaining way. He's not for educational watching, he's for enjoyment.

Something I realized in the last couple of days watching BMP fishing on youtube: -I need to go throw big swimbait in Austin!!! -BPs diesel bill must be thousands every month with all of the toys he brings along. -Who pays for these pros like BMPScott Martin to have a film crew follow them around in a chase boat and make high quality videos? you have to think that Scott Martin pays Brandon pretty good to make those videos. Seems like a new expense attached to being a young pro trying to market themselves.

i agree with you on a lot of points i used to be a fan of quite a few of them, but i think Jon B is steering away from fishing and is getting more into general video editing and what not. The editing he does is why i follow him. the rest of the boob squad are all over dramatic and not they all advertise advertise advertise, which is why i don't watch Scott Martin anymore. don't like watching an 8 minute commercial for a 5 minute video. I understand they have money to make but eh to each their own.

Now thats a channel I could get behind. Or, "Now that's a behind that could get a channel!" Words to that effect. I saw this and it made me think of another group of YouTube fishing video makers: women fishing in scanty bikinis. Older guys here remember going to the magazine rack and most every motorcycle and hot rod magazine had some hot babe draped over it. It worked then, still does . . . as I think the trend is still intact after half a century. Selling to voyeurs has always been popular. Likely, even more so now since so many more people live their lives vicariously. I'd bet a large percentage of the voyeur market either doesn't fish or rarely fishes. Brad

Great guys, tips, and fishermen. Pure fishing, not a vlog about going to the dentist or a dang unboxing.
"On the 8th day, God created the DALLAS COWBOYS" Real men love Jesus, don't wear scarves, pop their gum, or use an umbrella....IMO

I think it depends on what you are really looking for in content.
If you want drama, VLOGs and a deep understanding of what guys had for breakfast then Jon B, LFG and Lunkerz are your channels. I just don't care about that and I don't watch them as an alternative to watching reality TV, which I also don't watch. These guys have a lot of subscribers and they do well I'm sure, but they are more about self-promotion than fishing.
If you want fishing information than TacticalBassin (never understood the name but whatever), Flukemaster, & Your LFG all dish it out.

I have about 30 guys I follow and 80% are just making homemade videos on lakes or areas I like to fish. The Goon squad drives me nuts with their product pushing towards little kids. They do sell creative shirts and a few ok items. That Mystery Junk Box is the most enoying commercial since the Granny and her Clapper..I wonder how they have 400,000+ subscribers and their video are only seen by 50k to 100k ??? They all trying and make as many videos in a week for Max. Profit instead of trying to fill 1 or even 2 videos a week.That Chris Belaw and Pervic really like to fish..
