Aaron Martens

Sometimes it just seems the worst things happen to the best people. Such a good, humble family man. I hate this so bad for him and his family.

Prayers for Aaron and his family.

any updates?

I heard he passed this morning RIP Amart

Aaron, hey brother if it's true that you left us, peace be with you dude. You made such an impact in the world of bass fishing and enriched many lives, fisherman and non fisherman. Thank you for all you have done. Thank you for showing the world what a humble, cool dude looks like. A man who had passion for fishing and helping his fellow angler with all things related to bass fishing. You were one of the good ones brother.

The world is confusing at times and it's hard to comprehend how things like this happen. An awesome healthy man given a horrible heath issue out of the blue. Cancer is the devil.

Back in Jan. 2021 I was diagnosed with testicular cancer at age 39. One moment I was good and in a blink of the eye things changed. Had surgery for removal of left nad and it was 100% seminoma which was a blessing. Three months of BEPx3 chemo ending in May and it was ruff, toughest thing I've delt with so far in life but I had it on easy street compared to Aaron and many others who where in the treatment center with me. It's been a rough comeback but I' am getting back to it the best I can and try to keep a positive attitude, Aaron really showed me what positivity looks like. My family was key in keeping me stable and in good spirits and a warrior who was a EOD dude in the ARMY who had been through a lot of pain and seen a lot of suffering and carnage, he gave me a few pep talks that really helped, thank you Brandon. Also the nurses at the infusion center are angels straight from the hands of the lord thank you ladies.

Cancer is a huge wake up call and helps hammer home the point that life is precious and can be gone in the blink of an eye. I, like my fellow humans get bummed out at times and depressed but I'am truly blessed,I'm on the gravy train compared to so many in this world.

Aaron you are loved brother, by all the basser's here on earth and by the Lord. Thank you for all you have done. You helped me get in to Megabass and Basstrix back in the day hahaha. You are a great man, take care.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family and friends. Bless all of you.

Sincerely, just a construction dude SC.

glad to hear your results came out good , I am also glad to hear that Aaron is still fighting . My brother in law and a very close work colleague both died from a Glioblastoma . They tend to be found mostly in men .
I have another brother in law that had it and survived . The newest technology on these uses highly targeted " viruses " to attack the tumors .
For myself , I have had two tumors removed , one was a large basal cell carcinoma and the other was a very rare tumor that grew in my lip . The tumor in my lip could have gone either way --- benign or malignant .
Turned out to be benign and 5 hours later they saved my lip and removed the tumor . SCARED THE TAR OUT OF ME .
Prayers for Aaron , his wife and family ---only God knows his future .

Brent Chapman had a video yesterday where him and his wife spent the day with Aaron and his wife yesterday morning. Lots of fake news out there.

Prayers for Aaron. My nephew is going through this same thing right now. He just had his third surgery at MD Anderson on his brain. It is miraculous he is still with us and functioning pretty close to normal, but he is a fighter. He is 40 yrs old.

We will continue to pray for Aaron and his family.

RIP.

I think him going back and trying to fish says alot. What a fighter .

No more suffering… he is whole again. RIP Hawg Snatcher.

I would love to see BPT or BASS name their AOY trophy after him.

You could easily see by this thread and the out pouring of support on the various other channels that Aaron made a significant impact on the world not just in fishing.

RIP to a Legend A-A-Ron

Be at peace and rip some lips with those gracing the heavens before you.

Facebook is lit up! And I get it, its bound to happen when a famous person passes....but read all the posts. All the posts seems like they are the anglers heart felt words versus the canned social media manager post for likes! I think it really is apparent that AMart had a big positive effect on the bass fishing community. I hope his family really knows that he really was one of the GOATs!

My favorite fisherman to watch and listen to. I was always exited to watch a tournament where he was in contention knowing he would be covered. One of my favorites was the Havasu tournament where he was on the black bird pattern. RIP sir!
