There's only one set of names for 4 turtles... Michelangelo, Donatello, Raphael and Leonardo... For seriously...
I agree
Cowabunga dude! For sure.
Amen
I just commented the exact same thing! hahaha
At least the orange one has definitely got to be michelangelo
You have 4 turtles. If you don't name them Michaelangello, Raphael, Leonardo, and Donatello you are doing it wrong my friend.
I think you are a little late my friend
You're dog gone right.
Theyve had them before as baby's in the house pond
They already have 4 turtles named that
It has too be love it
I've seen nesting platforms where the owner screwed a few good sized branches to the platform to give the birds a head start and this gives them a way to wedge their first few nest branches in there.
Yes putting up boards and bigger sticks around the top of Eagle 🦅🦅 neast
Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo is a must for the turtles.
Yes
Absolutely
They already have turtles named that
I was gonna name them the teenage mutant ninja turtles 😂😂
The orange belly has to be Mikey
If you don't name the turtles Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael, and Donatello... then what are we even doing here?
Exactly what I was going to say
He’s done that before
And mark them with the respective colors
You have Gator. How about McKlusky for one of the new Bass? As in Gator McKlusky the Burt Reynolds movie? If not, then how about Burt?
Name one of the bass “Flo- Rida” like the rapper name!
I can’t wait for when they start catching 25 pounders
I’ve been following this for so long and it’s been amazing, I can’t wait to try to replicate this one day myself, thank you for doing such a amazing job and teaching me so much!
Can you set up a few bat boxes and see if they nest? Great for pest control.
That’s a great idea, and will help with insects!
We have so few bats in this part of the country, it is a real shame. When I was a kid you could see dozens of them every evening and now it is rare to occasionally see one. I believe a diseas decemated their population numbers.
Putting sides up on the nest platform will help with stability. One thing you can do to help them is to build a starter substrate by intertwining twigs a couple inches thick on the surface in the shape of a large nest. You can also help secure this to the platform using baking wire or something similar. This worked for feruginous hawk nest platforms I installed in oil fields. For bald eagles this should be as wide as the surface of your platform since their nests are huge and they will add to it every year once they start nesting
Emmitt, the best running back ever out of Florida.
Those new bass are beautiful! Congrats
I always love the “ a couple loads a clay” when it was like 800+ dumps
You are correct. You need to add a "Lip" to your eagle nest to keep the sticks and debris from blowing off. I would box in a 2x4" lip with inverted 1 by 1" stakes (at least 6-10 inches high) spaced out every 8 - 12 inches. This will serve to "grab" on to any branches the eagles will bring to the nest. Once an eagle places down a branch it would be less likely from blowing/rolling off the platform
I live in Florida and this is how it’s done here.
I use to watch you when I was younger when you guys first introduced Sheriff to Bonnie and Clyde, which inspired me to get a native fish of my own. I caught a pumpkinseed sunfish and ever since that point I was hooked on aquatic biology. This is the first video of yours I've seen in years and I love that within 5 minutes I get a quick lesson about your F1 Tiger Bass. Keep up the nerd talk Bama and ill be watching more videos
You have made a nature reserve, it’s amazing!
I belive that a nice add to the eagle platform was a edge or a rail so that the nest material stays up there more easy
I said this months before.
Skunkape
Same. Nail a big Christmas wreath up there😂

An artificial nest tree with a flat platform needs an artifical starter nest anchored to the structure with wire cables. Southern Alabama is tornado and hurricane country. Even areas where those weather phenomenon are rarer eagle nests have blown out of trees as what happened last year in Minnesota while mom was sitting on the nest. I suggest Bamabass go to the experts, especially the eagle specialist involved at the famous SWFL eagle cam and get advice on how to build it properly. I have seen the ones that start as a wire mesh bowl lined with straw and then ringed by large sticks and branches. That entire structure is then anchored tightly to the platform so it can't move. The eagles will then finish it to their specs. Eagles constantly fiddle with their nests and seem rarely satisfied which lead to hilarity as couples often fight over where to place sticks throughout the nesting season. Just search YT for Jackie and Shadow (or Big Bear eagles) to see examples.
You’re the Bob Ross of fishing and outdoor conservation. Thank you for all you do. I like the name Osceola for one of the new Florida bass. He was a Seminole leader in the early 19th century.
perfect comparison
Osceola is terrific but the fish are female. great for the turtles
I’m pretty sure conservationists don’t hybridize fish for sport fishing.
I think highly of BamaBass. But it might be more appropriate to use different terminology to describe what he’s doing.
amazing content, awesome pond, wish I could fish there all day
A major river that flows through Florida is called the Suwannee and is popular for bass fishing! Maybe that for your Florida fish?
Can I nominate Daytona as a Florida name. Don’t know why, but that was going round my head as you were tagging them! Love your videos, such a beautiful site 🙏🏼✌🏼
Orlando Would be a Good Name for one of your new Florida Bass
Great suggestion.
I'm from the UK, so I love that you put rainbow trout in great😂
Eagles,at least in my area, like a bit of a shallow V to start their nests on. Sort of like a flattish Christmas manger. You could make one where the legs would go through the slat spaces you have, with the shallow V part resting on your existing platform. Bolt the legs from underneath.
Tebow for one of the new FL bass! Keep up the great work. Always interesting to see how the pond evolves.
Slow down he already named one gator that’s all y’all get 😂😂 go Noles!! 😊
Orlando is a good name!
Chicola, for the Apalachicola river
Love these videos guys. Been watching for years and love the Sunday uploads. How about naming one "Panhandle".
Florida girl here!!
Names
Sunshine
Hurricane
Tally (for Tallahassee)
Orange Blossom or Blossom for short
Allie short for Alligator
Name the fish Monsoon, Python, Manatee, and since you already named one Gator the last one has to be Croc.
Nail down a matt on the eagle tower. that has velcro like fibers to stable the twigs and sticks. A fake grass matt might work.
Name option for the new bass: Crockett and Tubbs from Miami Vice :) Love your channel
well they're chicks so maybe "Gina" and "Trudy"
FLORDIA MAN!!!!!!!! Should definitely be one!
The turtles MUST be named after the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Michelangelo Donatello Leonardo Raphael
Agreed!
Or famous artists, what would you name them after the 4th
It's the one and only way.
@@ChosonJindos Rembrandt? Lol
You could do a part of the wall see through for the squirrels. Would be great to see them and I think it's another great addition for wildlife to be filmed. 😊
Our family has been watching your video for years and love them. My daughters said Queso would make great name for one of the turtles.
You can name the Florida bass Cleetus. He is a great Florida man.
Hell yeah brother!!!
Do it for Dale.
Those turtles gonna be bass food
You should put 2x4s around the top of the eagle tower to hold the nest sticks in from blowing out and then throw some straw on top to help get the nest going for them.
What has been done by the conservation officers in my province is they place a few larger branches on the platform that can't be blown away easily. You don't need too many, I have usually seen around 6 branches that are up to about 2inches thick. This provides a base for the eagles to start building off of.
Name the turtles: Eeny, meeny, miny, moe!
Hello I’m from South Florida I think you should go with Hurricane since you already have a Gator and a Seminole !!🙌
Been following this channel for so long! Always a blast to watch what's happening
So name for the bass, Kissimee, Tallahasse, Toho and I'd say Tampa. As for the turtles, I'm with everyone, if you don't name them after the TMNT you're not doing them right!
Did you ever do a cost breakdown for the pond digging? I watched the first dozen or so videos in a row today and was trying to find it if you had. I love the channel!
For the Florida Bass names, working off the Oak and Cedar themes, how about naming 2 after Florida’s state tree and flower:
“Sabal” Palm; and
Orange “Blossom”
The only thing I can come up with on a Florida fish name would be Kissimmee after Lake Kissimmee in South Florida. Probably not what you're looking for but I thought I would give it a go because it is from Florida. Hope everyone has a wonderful and blessed day.
One of my dreams is being able to afford doing a big project like this ❤ I’d add a few more aggressive fish like Snakeheads or Peacock Bass but only a few
Name: Okee… Lake Okeechobee! Fits perfect for the Crimson Oak pond!! Name: Bahia Hana… a beautiful state park in the keys! Love the vids!
add a spot they can hide there stash of food like a vault and maybe a little camera in there would be cool
I think that a few of those would be cool in the ponds
Orlando Boom like it's hitting a top water!
Some of the old Tarzan movies were filmed in Silver Springs, Florida. How about naming a couple Tarzan and Jane? And don't forget Cheetah!
Marino, Hurricane, Glades, Sunshine, Cocoa, RonJon, Shelly (seashell), Pan(handle)
Awesome great job building this lake! Can you share the source for the bass you stocked the lake with? I have a 6 acre lake and am interested in stocking it with some more bass. Thanks
Liberty, taking the word in its concrete sense, consists in the ability to choose.
You should try doing that window cube that you place at the base of the water and suction the air off
Bobby for Bobby Bowden and Steve for Steve Spurrier. Pete for St Petersburg, Augustine for St Augustine are a few good ones
a bowl frame like they use for bean bag chairs would work
Love the video!
Marlin would be a good name for one, love the videos keep em coming!
1 million subs. Congrats 🎉
seeing this amazing channel from 10k to 1 million is crazy
KeyLime would be another idea. Love your videos! Keep them coming!
or Lime Pie
How about Horseshoe for a Florida bass? It’s a coastal town famous for creek fishing and where our rivers meet the gulf. Also, this town is still trying to recover from Hurricane Idalia.
I think "Hemingway" is a great name for one the bass! he was well known for his life in the FL Keys.
Tampa as a name for the new bass
Okachobie and panhandle could be cool names for some of the Florida bass
it would be dope if shiner sam gave you a few or if you gave a YT you really liked the chance to bring you a trophy bass you can tag like these ones so you know the difference an name for one should be PRIME TIME!
Cocoa
Kennedy
Orlando
Palm
Thanks for the videos =)
For the eagles nest just make a bowl shape around the platform out of plywood.
Im gonna go with cobia as a name. It sounds aggressive and i know bass are aggressive in Florida. Can't wait to see the progress as this experiment continues!!!
Yea I was thinking it would be a good idea nailing some tree branches on the side of the eagle stand. Positioning them to create a bowl shape.
Really love all y'all's vlogs. And then you should name one of them Ponce de Leon.
Turtle names: yertle & Myrtle; slopoke, ninja turtle names. For Florida bass: wikki and wachi, eclipse, Okeechobee, Miami, Orlando , Flo. Love your channel!
NICE
Osceola , Toho , Orlando for Orlando wilson/ Orlando magic.. TEBOW or Moroso
How bout’ Tallabassee
and (Orange) Blossom for the turtle with the orange belly? My husband and I love your show! Blessings to you and yours!
Named Tancook, the shark measured 9 feet, 9 inches long and weighed 715 pounds when it was first tagged 18 months ago in the waters off Nova Scotia. Since then, Tancook has pinged off the coast of Florida dozens of times each of the last two winters, including just off the coast of St. Augustine on Jan. I think Tancook would be a cool name.
Have you installed any Bat boxes? Bats might be a good addition to control insects. Also, nice to see them flying at dusk.
There’s a lot of springs in Florida, a popular one in my area is Ginnie (sounds like Jenny) Springs. Maybe Ginnie or Gin for short?
Definitely add like 6-12 inch of siding around the eagle tower and then add some large sticks and some medium sticks. they will probably immediately start filling it in for a nest they should be laying eggs now/soon
Keeping the theme for the Florida bass names, a good name would be Cane! Miami Hurricanes
oakachobee oak for the tree and chobee from the biggest fresh water lake in Florida
loxahatchee would be sick (florida rural town in west palm beach county)
pronounced (locks-uh-hat-chee) translates to "river of turtles"
Side rails for sure
For the turtles, Diamond,Spadey, Clubber, and Heart
For the squirrel house, some swings or vines
Cocoa or Blastoff for the Florida lady bass
Vertical boards and plywood on top of the pallet for a surface the nest material can’t fall through.👍
When I was a kid went down to Florida had a visit with "Figment" a dragon at epcot center. That was a good 40 years ago. Not sure if it's still around.
I love the science element of your channel. Fascinating stuff.
Since you have so many eagles coming around , you should put up a new eagle tower in box form, And keep that original one as a perch. As for Florida bass names how about Disney, Daytona or Hurricane 😊❤❤❤
If you're naming them after the major FL school's, as a diehard Miami fan, Hurricane better be one of the names!!
My best options for the Florida themed names are, Manatee,
Pelican, Gulfstream, Biscayne, Sunny, Mango, I hope you pick one. Thanks!
Cool ❤
Got to go with "Urban" for one of the Florida fishes. Go Bucks!
You could do Sunshine for one of the bass since Florida is the sunshine state.
Tallahassee! Would b great name for the bass
Yes add the boards and a simple structure for the eagles to build on
Hurricane and Snow Bird would be good florida names.
So Flo born and raised. I say you name one of the bass
“CHOBEE”
For Lake Okeechobee the biggest lake in Florida!!
Everglade is a good Florida name for one of your new bass
