- In this video I show you guys how I use Navionics and google earth to help me find high percentage fishing spots before I even get to the lake. Hope you enjoy it and send me a lake near you and I might break it down in my next video. #fishgarmin #garminpro

Bradley, the way you talked about highways being interstates and where they are going to stop is so much better than most fisherman who use this method .
Glad it helped! Thanks 🙏
Great video, 79 and still learning. Excellent teacher. Thanks.
Thanks Richard appreciate the support
This is one of the most informative videos I’ve ever seen Brad. Thank you so much for putting this out here for guys like me who want to learn but don’t really have anyone to teach them!!!!
Absolutely! Thanks for continuing to watch.
This was very educational. I like hearing you talk thru how you think about what you are seeing right as you are seeing it. That process translates quickly to other lakes. Please do more of these types of breakdowns!
Thanks for feedback. Will have a fall breakdown coming soon.
This was an awesome video. You are a good teacher Mr. Hallman.
Thanks Jon glad you liked it!
I shared this on my Facebook page for our high school fishing team lots of good info.
Thanks for the the share.
great video, This really helps me understand what to look for in a lake, I usually just run banks with no clue, and waste a lot of time, not knowing how to find the productive parts, ty again.
So glad I found this, if you are still looking for lakes to do there is a lake here in Oregon that has a tone of pressure that would be interesting to see your take for summer fishing. Tenmile lakes, lakeside Or.
Great work Brad👍wish you the best on up coming season
Thanks for the break down information! Looking back at Sam Rayburn now from this weekends fishing trip to try and piece together where and why I got bit.
I love this type of content thank you Bradley.When you have time, take a look at Raystown lake in central Pa. I would like a little help with where to start on this impoundment again thank you and take care .
I enjoyed the why behind the location chosen.....I live in NE Arkansas.....smaller flat lakes
Thanks Tom
Excellent I’ll study this and follow thru with what I’ve learned on the High Desert lake here in Southern Utah !
KR
St. George, Utah
Thanks for this. I'm more of a hands on learner than a visual learner. But this definitely helped out
Great stuff Bradley!! If you have time could you breakdown Table Rock Lake. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the suggestion man I appreciate it love Table Rock!
Great information again! This is a freaking game changer for sure. I have commented back and forth with you about Weiss Lake . You said it’s a bucket list trip. So when you coming to north east Alabama and fishing Weiss. I’d love to see you fish all that TON of skinny backwaters on the upper end of the lake.
I have an aluminum bass boat that is absolutely a necessity up there and I have a nice extra bedroom for ya and a freezer
Full of crappie. FISH FRY
Thanks David!
Bro you seem like a great person. I fish tournaments as a boater but when it comes to the bigger tournies like flw, u.s. open I fish as a non boater. Yes we all want to win but I always respect the boater and never want to give him a reason to have a gripe with me. You seem like the same kind of person. God bless you and I hope you have a fantastic 2021.
Appreciated
Great video! Would love to see a breakdown of Belton Lake or Stillhouse Hollow Lake near Belton, TX. Keep up the great videos! Let's all get out and fish!
Appreciate the feedback
Great Job Bradley, this is my first time watching one of your videos, this was GREAT very educational. Just subscribed looking forward to more content. I may be a little lake but a break down of Lake Hopatcong in NJ would be awesome. Thank You
Thanks for the suggestion Juan!
Lake James in North Carolina Great info
This might be one of the most informational videos on bass fishing I’ve watched on CZcams for a bass angler. Outstanding job man
Thank you bud! Just trying to make something worth watching.
I fish Ellsworth and Lawtonka as they’re just up the road from my house. Watching you break down this lake as fast as you did is pretty awesome. That brush line you found is one of my go to spots on Ellsworth. If you ever get the chance, come back down and fish lawtonka. You won’t be disappointed
I’ve heard that! Appreciate you sharing
Loved the video. I’d love to see you breakdown J. Percy Priest Reservoir in Nashville, TN... Lots and Lots of rock and quite a number of creeks as well.
I’ve been by there many times but that’s one I have not fishes thanks for the suggestion.
Up it to old hickory Nashville
Hi Bradley, enjoyed this video very much. I know you are from Oklahoma but I also know you are very well versed on Texas lakes. I would like to see you
break down Sam Rayburn and Toledo Bend please, as these are the two lakes I fish most often!!! As a matter of fact, they are the only two I fish. I also realize that they are Really large lakes and it would be hard to cover the entire lake in one video, but I fish the south to mid lake areas in Toledo Bend,
and Black Forrest to and including Amish Bayou and Bear Creek areas. These are the areas I would be most interested in on both lakes. Thank you so much for your time and efforts!!! You do a.great job and you make it easy to follow and understand!!!
This is awesome! Do more of these! I like the idea of you going out and putting it into practice on lakes around you. I'm up in MN so would love to see you do one up around me and how you break those type of lakes down, even thought you couldn't do the follow up part.
Thanks Matt. I have had lots of request for a natural lake breakdown. I will definitely do one in the future for maybe a summer or fall pattern.
@@BradleyHallmanFishing Look up Leech Lake in Cass County MN or Green Lake in Kandiyohi for a couple good ones to break down in MN, we only have about 11,000 to choose from!
Chattanoga, TN Chickamauga Lake! Liking the channel! Great info!
Thanks man! So much out there on Chick already but I love that place!
Great Video Bradley. Ran through it twice this morning and I am sure Many more times. Not only am I visual, I am also a slow learner. Thanks for doing it.
Me too!
I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel. Great information without all the bravado that some have.
thank you for sharing what most certainly is many years of experience! Most guys would not be so forthcoming . Well done Bradley! and thanks again.
Thanks Tim
Thank you Bradley.
I learned a tremendous amount . I am working with a local radio station here in Lake Havasu , Arizona to get a talk show started. A break down of our lake would go a long way . We have snow birds come every year and want to know how to fish this lake and your information would be most helpful. Thanks again for considering us,
Awesome idea with the everyone landing to winter there. Thanks for the suggestion.
Just go ahead and go to Meade. You can fish in a little puddle and hope you don’t hook into a dead body. They have found 4 already. That was a beautiful lake. I don’t think it’s going to come back up being in the middle of the desert.
Outstanding video, great information! I think I have seen the Bass Tank on Truman Lake in Missouri, your break down of it would be awesome
I’ve never been on Truman! That would be a good lake to do a summer breakdown on.
Thanks Bradley, great info! Google Earth Pro is a great tool 💯👍
hey bradley, a thorough breakdown of wachusett reservoir in massachusetts would be greatly appreciated 🙏
Brad, awesome breakdown. Learned more in that 30 minutes than all the seminars I’ve attended through the years, from several tour level pros to Lowrance people themselves, that couldn’t make it more user friendly than you just did. If you’re looking for something closer to home, to also do a 2 part, please consider Stockton Lake or Pomme de Terre here in Missouri. Again, thank you for the video and the time you put into your work to benefit us.
Thanks..... glad you got something from it!
Great video. A lot of good info. Keep up the good work and keep them coming. Anxious to see you fish this lake to see how it looks compared to maps and how you do. Good luck.
Thanks Rick it’s on there! Think my boy catches his PB on one of the highlighted spots!
Very cool, thanks for the lesson!!!!
Yes Sir!
Awesome video Brad. I have never fished Lake Ellsworth for bass but look forward to the fishing video. I know u probably have fished Arbuckle, but would sure love for you to break it down. I caught a 10 lb there in June 2019.
Arbuckle has some awesome fish in it right now! Thanks for the feedback.
Hey I have no idea why I'm just know seeing this since it's been on here for over a year, I watch most all of your videos and you do a really great job of explaining things so people that don't really fish as much as some of us do. Great job with all your content. Oh by the way, you got anything on Douglas Lake in East Tennessee? My buddy's have a derby there April 11. If not that's fine. Keep up the good work. Stay safe out there on and off the water. Tight lines and Semper Fi!
HEY..... I just subscribed to your channel after watching this video.. You really broken it down for me, definitely something I will use after this quarantine is over. If you need a lake in Texas, Please breakdown Ray Roberts!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the suggestion and the scrib!
Excellent video thanks for posting!
This would have been great to know 10 years ago... I would have prolly succeeded better at the long road trip first time lakes... now we know, now we know!
Thanks for another great few pointers appreciate it more then you know sir!
Hindsight is always 20/20 for all in all situations
Can’t wait to see how the trip goes now!
It’s coming next.
Well I'll take a shot here. My home lake is Foster Joseph Sayers dam in howard pa. Or another close lake is Raystown Lake in Huntingdon Pa. Would be cool to see a breakdown of one of those to see the way you would approach it. Another awesome video!!
Appreciate the suggestion I am going to do more than one so hang tight I may get to yours! Thanks for watching.
Great video, would love to see you break down Monroe Lake, Bloomington, Indiana. Awesome video Bradley, this has to be your best one yet.
Appreciated
I am not really into fishing ran across your video very educational so I am a new sub I am enjoying this my husband and I have a v dive boat be careful out there
Thanks 😊
Hey Bradley, Thanks for the video very helpful. If you are looking for a lake to break down. What about Neely Henry in Gadsden, AL part of the Coosa River chain... I am a BASS co angler. I will be fishing Neely Henry 3rd week of October. I am going to take a look and apply some of these techniques as well.
Thanks for the suggestion and support! I have a few coming up soon for the Summer patterns.
Very educational. Thanks. Falls Lake in NC would be a great lake as it has three distinct parts. Lowland, river and deep bowl with a dam. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for the suggestion and watching.
Got one in Missouri. 1700 acre lake. One major river channel then two major creeks. Grew up on the lake. Love the lake. Would like to see how you attack it. Clearwater lake in peidmont, Missouri.
This is so informative. Would love to see this for Lake Cumberland
Cumberland is a tough one with all the smallies
Excellent Hallman! Really is going to help me out. Can’t wait to see you fish it. Thanks!
That video is coming next! Thanks
Bradley, fantastic video! I'm not as interested in learning about a specific lake as much as how you handle the different styles of lakes. What about a video on one of the TVA river system lakes. The time you're spending on these videos is paying off. Your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Thanks for schooling us!
Thank you very much I really appreciate it. I’ve had a few requests for TVA lakes so possibly sometime in future
Awesome Video! Really appreciate you taking the time to make an informative video like this.
Thanks.... have more coming soon
Glad I found you bro! Break down Grand but just for me! Lol.
I’ve had lots of requests for Grand it’s a place that I’m familiar with for sure. Thanks for the suggestion.
Great insight, thanks for sharing!! Would love to hear about Percy Priest, TN!!
Awesome video man! You don’t see many of these type videos from pros!! Keep these style of video coming. Very beneficial for the average joes.
Just dropped another one for ya!
I have a more difficult time breaking down a larger lake. Get lost in the size. I would love to see you break down something larger like Grand Lake. We were supposed to fish it this week with my bass club and I’ve never been there, but like everything else, it got cancelled. I really enjoyed this video.
I have that in mind I swear. Lots of guys asking the same. I will get to I promise.
Fantastic information sir! Madison Chain, WI is a glacial lake. Not much structure.
Natural lakes are on my agenda to come! Thanks for the feedback.
Great and very informative vid Bradley. I really enjoy listening to you break it down and give reasons why or why not you would fish certain areas. Thanks bro.
513
You bet man thanks for being so supportive all the time!
Great content.
Lake Ray Robert’s would be an interesting breakdown. I’ve struggled a lot out there.
Thanks Josh I will look into Ray Robert
Bradley that was a great video, It is really cool that is a lake that I have fished in the past. And those look like pretty good spots that you pointed out. Great job man, keep the videos coming out!!!!
Thanks Steven
Would love to see your take on a fairly big lake with a lot of points and depth like Smith Mountain Lake just south of Roanoke Virginia
Oh I’ve been there several times! Twice in the Elites and one Open. I like that lake a lot! Thanks for reminding me.
Would love to see you do this for some northern lakes for us northern guys
I have some natural lakes coming soon!
Could you do a breakdown of Taylorsville lake in Kentucky? Looking to learn about it more and get the kids out on it.
hey man loved the lake breakdown! if you could do Clearlake in california i’d greatly appreciate it!
Clear lake California is a cool lake. Thanks for the suggestion.
Best map study vid I’ve seen! Could you do a breakdown of Lake Monroe in Bloomington, IN? Looks like some others are asking too. That’d be awesome!
Yes they are....... thanks you very much!
I would like to see that one as well. I'll be at that lake later this summer. Well if this Corona virus doesn't keep us locked down all year.
Hey Mr Hallman
Would love to see you break down
Lake Catoma it’s in Cullman Alabama (Roll Tide)
But it’s a city lake it has giants in it but would love to see how you would break it down
Thanks for the suggestion!
Bradley, Awesome video! Looking forward to the next video and the on the water comparison! Be safe out there!!
Thanks it’s coming next!
Not exactly a small Lake by any means but it would be interesting to see how you break down one of my favorite Lakes Clear Lake in California.
I may do that sometime it is very unique in that it’s a natural lake but does not lay out like one. I will keep this one in mind thanks for the suggestion!
Love the video so much info that I hav es t thought about thankyou .
New to your channel and love it! Great work. Keep giving out real and good advice and you'll grow like TB. We know the channels that don't give much real info and they usually don't last. Again, great work
Thanks Rocket Man
Great video and information on breaking down the lake, as well as combining what to look for during the given time of year. Maybe check out Kerr Scott or Oak Hollow in NC.
Thanks for the suggestions!
Another great video again buddy! A++
Thanks again Luke!
Very informative please do more
Just a tip worth noting: If you click on the navionics symbol on the lower left of screen you can choose sonar option. It will give you all the contour lines instead of just the basic lines navionics gives you.
Thanks very much for the feedback. That’s what this is about my friend!
Wonderful tutorial on map study! I'm looking forward to seeing how your trip turns out.
Just dropped it! Hope you like it.
Bradley another great idea. This is one thing that I admire a pro does. There ability to break down a lake. Where I'm from there is hardly any reservoir but more natural lakes. It would interesting how could break down a lake this. ei. A portion of the great lakes or any natural lake in the central midwest. Keep up the great work
Thanks for the compliments. I will look into it.
Great watch Brad! Keep them coming buddy!
Thanks David
Excellent instructional breakdown.
Great video Dude! Keep’em coming! Best map study breakdown I’ve seen.
Appreciate that!
Great video! Could you try a northern lake up in NY. We got a lot of natural lakes with deep water and fairly straight without obvious creek channels so its kinda hard to apply some of the concepts you went over in this video. Check out Conesus Lake or Hemlock Lake in NY. Thanks!
I’m going to do a natural lake for sure! Thanks for the suggestion.
Hey Brad, would love for you to break down my home lake of Lake Greenwood in South Carolina. Love the videos man. Lee
Thanks for the suggestion I will keep it in mind. Blueback lake?
Yes it has blueback hearing.
Thank you for this series! This is such a tremendous help. I learned a lot.
Glad you like it!
Great break down. If you can get to it Pomme de terre north of Springfield Mo.no grass all rocks with some trees and brush
Thanks for the suggestion man truly appreciated.
@@BradleyHallmanFishing It would cool to see if you break it down like I do to see if I am on point thanks
Im like you If i'm not catching fish I go back to the river channel and work my why in from here follow the highway and it always works
Love your videos Bradley!! I would love to see some content on some of the more natural lakes vs. the typical reservoirs. I live in Northern IN and fish Michigan quite often for big small mouth, but breaking down a lake that is essentially just a big bowl has always stumped me.
I have this coming your not the first to ask. Thanks for the feedback.
Love this video. Would love to see you do Jordon Lake or Shearon Harris Reservoir here in North Carolina. I fish these lakes and would love some pointers and see what I am missing.
I will look at them thanks for the suggestion and watching.
Great video Brad. I learned a lot watching it. Thank you for making this video.
Appreciate you watching!
Great video. I am anxious to watch for your upcoming ones as the bass season progresses. A breakdown of O H Ivie in west Texas would be wonderful. A big bass lake. Thanks. Just found your channel and subscribed.
Appreciate you! I would love to do a west Texas lake man thanks for the suggestion.
I was just going to suggest this very lake we fish there quite often been lots of share a lunkers taken from this lake really enjoy your content keep up the good work
Hey Bradley, appreciate the best video I've seen on how to breakdown a lake. Awesome Intel in lamens terms, Thank you. I live on Lake Martin, Alexander City, Al. I'm going to implement what you went over in your video to Lake Martin. If you breakdown Lake Martin I would like to see what I missed. This is all a new approach to me. Thanks man
I could be wrong but is lake Martin a River? I think I’ve been there at some point. I know it’s sad but after many years of traveling they can sometimes run together.
@@BradleyHallmanFishing it is a river system that has several dams thru the state. It's considered a "man made lake".
Great video Brad! Please consider Kinkaid Lake which is a reservoir located in southwestern Illinois. It’s roughly 3000 acres with 80 miles of shoreline and loaded with milfoil!
I’m sure Panger’s been there before...
Great video Bradley. Would love to see your break down of either Douglas or Cherokee Lake in East Tennessee.
I’ve been to Cherokee a few times never been to Douglas good idea. Thanks
I have to tell ya for just getting started you've come a long way in a short time. You're putting out content that is useful and easy to understand. What a unique idea. Can't wait to see you apply it to the on the water experience. If I may, it would be interesting if you could edit in some of this video to the on the water video. It would give a good comparison to the map study vs the on the water experience. Just a thought. Keep it simple and keep up the good work. P.S. a lake I would like you to breakdown is Mosquito Lake in Cortland, Ohio. The northeast section of the state. They once held a MLF tournament there. Thanks again, looking forward to Part 2.
Appreciate the compliment it has not been easy. Thanks for the suggestion I will look into it.
Really enjoyed this! Thanks!
👊
Hey great video and would love to see break down Enid lake in north Ms. This is a COE lake and over the last two has really putting out the big fish! Thanks again Bradley
Thanks for the comments I will look into this one.
I know this video is a little older but if you're still interested in doing another lake. I'm a beginner and I tried to do my local lake but I wouldn't mind seeing how good I did by someone like you doing it. Okmulgee lake. It's a pretty small lake
Lake Pleasant in Arizona! This lake seems to get harder and harder to crack. It would be great to see a pro’s break down.
I’m going to do some west coast water! Thanks for the suggestion.
Great info! Looking forward to part 2. If you get a chance check out little muskego lake here in Waukesha Wisconsin. Like to see how you would breakdown this small lake.
Thanks for the suggestion l! Just dropped Part 2 of this video.
This was great man. Cant wait to see you fish this lake. Smithmountain lake va. Is my home lake and would like to see you break it down. Its the most highly pressured lake besides japan. Great job man you took my mind off things for a while.
Appreciate the comments
I don't have any lakes nearby but I have several river systems. I would like to see you break down a section of Altamaha river near Jesup ga.
Great video!Thanks for making them!
Thanks 🙏 for the feedback
I’d love to see a break down of Lost Grove Lake in Eldridge, IA. It’s suppose to have some of the best largemouth fishing in the state but there is so much standing timber that it’s hard to breakdown. I appreciate the content. I learned a lot!
I can help you with this. Good chance I work on this because it lets me get into a new subject I’ve been wanting to do.
