    Never a truer statement!! I spent my late teens, 20’s and 30’s in the army jumping out of planes, killing people and blowing crap up. Never an injury of any kind. Retired joined the labor force for 20 years. Then a freak accident broke my neck and compressed my spine. My body went to hell and everything Randy is saying happened. I was in great shape until I got hurt. Now days I’m lucky just to be able to get out of bed to go fishing. Listen to the words coming out of his mouth. He is right.

    Wise words Randy. I’m 64 years old. Stage 4 prostate cancer. Started working out with a trainer 5 months ago right before I started 6 weeks of radiation treatments and 6 months of hormone treatments. I feel great.

    Never forget the words of wisdom from Rick Clunn- "Never accept that your best days are behind you". . I'll be 65 in a few months. Yes you do slow down a little but in the past 9 years, I've never had better tournament success. 7 solo wins in 8 years. Wisdom and experience is everything. Most old dudes fade because they are stuck in their ways and methods. Experience and attitude is everything. As is, proper human diet. I am Carnivore! imo. Good job Randy.

    I am 82 years old, I workout 4 times a week. Launch my ranger 518 boat by myself and load it by myself, I have fished all over Arkansas all my life, I still enjoy fishing but I don’t fish as long and hard as I use to. I fished some tournaments when I was younger but not any more, I just enjoy going to lake oucahita or lake Hamilton and trying to get a few bites , if I catch some I always release them I just enjoy the the bite and the fight! Randy you are right about exercise up to a point, but your belief system causes you to miss the truth about life! We are all going to die!! As I have told you many times in my comments the most important thing in life life is knowning what happens when we die! If you don’t know this you have no wisdom, if you only had the passion you have for the physical body for our spiritual souls you would study more about life after death and eternity, heaven and hell, maybe you could understand the TRUTH about life!!! You are urging everyone to get in the gym, well I am urging you and everyone to get in the BIBLE , GODS WORD and study it deeply! The Bible tells us how to have a perfect glorified body forever after we die ! Randy I know you don’t believe any of this but I challenge you again study the Bible in depth and see that God loves you and wants to open the eyes of your heart to see the real truth about life! God bless you ! John 3:16

      The more I study the Bible the more I believe the way I do. Im convinced most christians do not and have not read the Bible because if they would have, they would have tons of questions about the insanity of it. Scriptures like when the Bible says people should be burned for nonsensical offenses such as in Leviticus, where it says that the daughter of any priest that says profanity things to her father will be burned to death. Do you actually agree with that? The more you study the Bible the more you will understand that it is a book written by men to control other people. And to keep them in fear while doing so.

    @dansfishntales Před 6 měsíci +4

    You are definitely correct. I'm 72 and still in the media side of fishing and shooting after 51 years, which is definitely a teaching process. As for the physical side of things, I also work as a Trail Tamer for a conservation department, which keeps me constantly exercising with tree work of all types, mowing areas on steep hills by hand with larger mowers can not safely go, and clearing/maintaining and building new trails. Virgil Ward, Bill Norman, John Campbell, Lonnie Stanley and Forrest Wood, all played parts in my career, and from them I learned a lot. Now, as you said, the younger ones don't want to listen, and is why I turned down a TV gig on a regular show with a young woman as the host. After I didn't sugar coat anything and told her my age, she knew it would go well for the younger audience that she was wanting to play to for her ratings. So guys listen to Randy. He knows what he is talking about. When I had my radio show I was reporting about his first tournament accomplishments, as well as in my newspaper and magazine columns. Hang in there Randy. You are still a young man to us older guys. 🤣

    Randy spot on. I am 53 years old. I will fish a tournament here and there. But at this point and time I don’t ever recognize bass fishing today. When I was in my late 20’s early 30’s we always respected our elders bass fishermen. I met Zell Rowland Tommy Biffle in 1998 and was like in awe just having conversation with pros you looked up to the older guys was a privilege. Showing respect was mandatory.

I have even gotten back into riding a bike and that has helped build my leg strength. Excellent topic Randy.

I don't go to a gym but I eat well, drink less, stay active, walk and lift some weights. I started playing guitar. I still get advice from my 90 yr old father (whether I want it or not) I started buying BPS Carbonlite rods and reels because of my tendinitis in both arms. Rod and reel combined weighs 11 ounces.

Their backs will hurt after lugging a tackle bag around the pond. I also agree about sharing what little knowledge I have. It's rewarding for me when a first time angler comes up to me at a pond and asks for help with their gear or ask how I'm catching fish.

    Never a more true observation. I am 76 and enjoy standing on the bow of a bass boat. The reality is it takes core strength. The truth is when young you work out for a week and it last months. When you are 70+ you work out for months and it last weeks. I started yoga and Tai Chi along with the machines at the gym. After about 3 months I can hang on that bow for a 8 hr or 2 day club tournament. There is no need to give up what you enjoy, but it does require commitment.

I planned on starting a workout program one week before my accident, and I told my doctor that I didn’t expect a hip fracture to be the way to get started 😂😂 I ride a stationary bike and hike now and I am looking forward to this fishing season with the two bass clubs I’m in here in Raleigh. I am stronger than I have been in the past 3-5 years and it’s only been 3 months.

    Clever Words well spoken.
    Thanks Randy.
    62 Your Proof Positive Kid.
    I have fallen out of shape.
    I made sure to thin down.
    My muscles have taken a backseat.
    56 and counting on fishing 56 more.

    I can tell you this Randy, I'm 74 years old trying to keep healthy, I walk 3 miles every morning and eat very healthy. The hardest part is tying my jigs and plugs on LOL I can hardly see 4 lb line and god save me if the wind is blowing. I refuse to stop fishing and playing my guitar. I now use snaps on all my jig / crank bait rods, I'd rather tie on but the snaps make things much better. Tight lines bro Los Angeles

    I completely agree, Im 40 I started strength training at about 36, and I now feel better than I did in my mid 20’s. I weigh lift 6 days a week and train Jiu Jitsu 3 times a week. Even if your body hurts, get active you will feel better!

    Stay in shape, keep learning, stay interested in life, free your mind from the toxicity of social media and society. Your 40’s can be the best of both worlds. I’m 42 and I go with what I feel, and not get too caught up in numbers.

    Great advice Randy ! I'm 68 still armwrestling against the youngsters . I can fish 10 to 12 hrs a day in Canada for a week. It's hard to fish a jerk bait all day ! But the point is if I didnt work out alot I couldn't do either . Exercise and good nutrition is the fountain of youth for sure .

    So, so true. Everything you said. Like they say, if you don't have your health, you don't have anything. Can't believe I hit 60 last yr. But I'm trying not to fight it. You've got to age like wine instead of like a hamburger or whatever. And this isn't a plug, but also good supplements like balance of nature has really helped me a lot in the past few yrs. Thx for all you do

    I agree - I have been in the gym since my 30's. I am 60 and I still fish with my Son and his buddies, and have no problem keeping up with the longer day trips and weekend trips. The guys my age (5years older and younger) don't go near as often as they used too. Randy is correct about getting in the gym, both weight (resistance training) and cardio. Also focus on you diet (healthy eating). You tube is a great resource for how to train in the gym.

    I'm 63 I didn't even start fishing tournaments until 2010. I was too busy making a living and not fishing in my 20's 30's and 40's Until my father who had just retired at 62 began fishing local tournaments and was injured in a freak accident in the boat and died from a blood clot in his lungs from a broken neck he had gotten in the accident. In memory of my father I took up tournament fishing and have excelled at it. I have placed 2nd in angler of the year 4 times won 35 tournaments attended BASS Nation regionals 2 times.Plus I fish on average 30 to 35 tournaments a year. I work hard so I can enjoy fishing I also enjoy seeing the faces of those young 20 and 30 something guys seeing the OLD GUY whipping their butts!

  • @bstan54
    @bstan54 Před 6 měsíci

    Randy, I agree with a lot of points. However, at my age i plan on fishing more. Not necessarily tournaments, but, when i was in my 20’s, 30’s and 40’s working 40-60hrs per week raising a family fishing was on the back burner. Now i can enjoy fishing and golf. I go to gym and golf is my exercise.

    So very true. I’m 60 and I have been a cna for 17 years. More younger people come into the nursing homes younger, because they choose to do as little as possible. Please take care of your health. Keep moving and enjoy life.❤

    Good advice Randy.. I can't help but echo the importance of fitness. I've always told myself, and anyone who will listen, "Move it or lose it". Yes, I can't "Move it" like I used to but I know how much better I feel when I am active, whether it be surfing, walking, lifting weights or simply cleaning my house or washing our cars. I still like the feeling of feeling my muscles the next day because I know that I did something good for myself and I know that it will crossover and help when I do things like fishing and hunting.

    I’m little older than you and retired, was carpenter for forty years. My body is pretty worn out hips, knees etc. surprisingly my back is ok. My hands don’t work like they used to. I don’t let it stop me though, use it or lose it is what I go by👍

    I am 56 and ran over 2600 miles last year and have averaged over 7 miles per day for several years now. I do strength training every other day. I qualified for the Boston Marathon in 2 of my last 3 marathons. It is fun running past 25 year old in a lot of races:) You definitely can feel younger as you get older. The key is the food -- whole foods nutrition is so vitally important -- and staying active in some way, every day. You don't have to run or lift weights or do resistance training specifically but you do need to be getting these aspects into your daily routine in some way, shape, or fashion whether it's purposeful or just by happenstance.

    The 8” mag draft and spinner bait/ crank bait wrecked my shoulders at 53. I need to put muscle on them.
