Recorded live at the TOBI on Toledo Bend, this episode covers extreme weather swings, Bassmaster Classic highlights, Thumpn Gel tactics and the Thump Gel big-bass pot, plus fundraising efforts for Texas Children’s Hospital and St. Jude’s.

Hosts share tournament stories, odd Airbnb adventures, veteran mental-health reflections, and preview upcoming events like the Memorial Tournament and MLF Redcrest, with info on how to get involved with ArmyBassAnglers.

Live from the Bassmaster Classic, the Force on Force podcast sits down with Monte Knight from Thump Gel to discuss the 20-year journey behind a no‑mess fish attractant and the partnership supporting veterans and ArmyBassAnglers.

Monte breaks down Thump Gel’s key features — flake for visibility, scent and taste for retention, superior stickability, compact mess‑free packaging, and the new Glow formula and color options for on‑the‑fly customization.

The episode highlights practical benefits for bass, crappie, and saltwater anglers, pro endorsements, and upcoming product lines, and points listeners to thumbgel.com and armybassanglers.com for more information.

Season three kicks off on the road from the Indianapolis Boat & RV Show with guests KB, Rory, and Nick from MotorMate. They discuss trailer and motor protection, a dramatic kayak flip and rescue, waterproof electronics that survived submersion, new partners and gear, and upcoming events for ArmyBassAnglers.

The episode also shares a personal moment as Nick’s daughter McKenna announces enlisting in the National Guard, highlighting the podcast’s blend of outdoors, military service, community support, and charity work.
