Looking for guidance on topic navigation and information gathering
I'm struggling to find a more linear way to approach browsing the video content here on BassU. I suppose I'm asking for a curriculum that progressively adds to knowledge based on what you should know from previous videos. A really dumbed down example might be:
Video 1. This is how to rig your setup for "x" technique and bait
Video 2. This is the application of "x" technique
Video 3. Advanced applications for "x" technique
Video 4. Alternative options for "x" technique depending on "y" conditions
Best I can say for now is watch alot of “Ike”’s videos
And download the power point slides with each video
If stumble on a word or process then google it or youtube it . Example say want to fish a worm
There is many ways to rig a worm anything dont understand google or youtube
Bassutv is way better than the internet but I get it most pros might not assume you know nothing
It sounds like im talking down to you but im afraid your coming across a little green to this
Wish you the best and your a fool if dont stick with it here on bassutv, its a tad advanced but that is what makes it good
There is menu options to select such as bass habitats or say bass lures. Or select a pros name etc
A good number of our technique-specific videos cover all 4 points in a single 45min class video. The recent John Crews seminar on Carolina rigs comes to mind https://bassu.tv/bass-fishing-video/going-deep-on-carolina-rigs-john-crews
We have discussed categorizing topics by how in-depth they are, allowing students to jump straight to, or work up to "advanced" topics. Bobby Lane's on-the-water stuff often has a flow similar to what you described: What is the rig? What tackle do I need? When am I fishing it? What tricks can I do to catch more fish or set my presentation apart from the crowd?
By necessity, some of our seminars don't really fit the mold, they are special-case scenarios that may relate to "x" technique, but also "y" technique. For instance, JT Kenney's Water Temperature Trends seminar may apply to any technique, or John Murray's fishing for pressured bass seminar. These are building blocks that you will identify how they relate to you and "x" technique with your time on the water. What makes putting specific courses together is that some topics, like fishing tidal waters, may be the entire focus of a class, but the pro may talk a lot about "x" technique. Some of the information might be great as general information, but some might relate primarily to tidal waters.
I hope this helps.
I appreciate all the info everyone! Sticking with it and making spreadsheets to better organize all this information.
Apologies for dredging up an old post. I saw in a comment above they recommended downloading the PowerPoint slides. I cannot seem to find where this is available. I tried my phone browser and the app, but just can't seem to locate it. Any help is appreciated. Take care and be well.
For a number of technical reasons, we no longer have the PowerPoint slides. One reason is, on many classes, we've added chapters, making it easy revisit a topic within a 50-minute video rather quickly.
Thank you kindly, Jason, appreciate it! The bookmarks are a wonderful feature. Now if I can just figure it how to cram more hours into my day to binge watch bassu, I'd be in heaven.
