Q&A: Legendary Bass Pro and Sportsfishing TV Host, Scott Martin

One of the world’s most acclaimed bass anglers and sportfishing media personalities, Scott Martin is known for his competitive success and engaging content. Sit in as he shares how he—and his family—live their best backyard life.

Backyard Life: What’s unique or special about your property or where you live?

Scott Martin: I’ve grown up on this land next to Lake Okeechobee, and it’s surrounded by 60 acres of nature. With easy access to a boat ramp and our marina only a half mile down the street, the proximity keeps our entire family plugged into the outdoors.

BYL: What are your favorite backyard spaces?

SM: We have two big Cypress and banyan tree canopies that provide shade during the summer months. And the best sunsets views I’ve ever seen that are right out next to our outdoor kitchen and pool!

BYL: How has your family—and the way you choose to live outdoors—influenced the way you’ve developed your own backyard?

SM: We built the pool patio and outdoor kitchen to overlook the backyard acreage, which is where the kids grew up playing and riding ATVs. So special!

BYL: Describe your perfect backyard afternoon (or way to spend time in your backyard).

SM: Sitting on our patio listening to some music and grilling a nice piece of meat with the family playing in our yard or riding their ATVs.

BYL:  What’s your favorite meal to throw on the grill?

SM: Definitely a Ribeye. (Second choice would have to be baby back ribs.)
