- Fishing a big rat lure for river monsters! It's a perfect day to be paddling around in the kayak and on this trip I'm hoping to hook into a big pike or muskie!

His casting precision is really impressive.
Sniper
Agreed but he also doesn't show all the casts that ends up snagging a branch.

@@OriginalMindTrick he uses sub 7ft rods. Try it. It helps
This is easily the best fishing channel on CZcams. None of that stupid-ass, loud, obnoxious, ridiculous "music" and no faked emotions. Just the sounds of a man at one with nature...well done.
Foreal😂
Agreed. And none of that silly, "Fish On! Fish On!! Oh My God!! Oh My God!!! nonsense either. (Which reminds me of those other clowns who think they always have to say, "Fire In The Hole!!" every time they burn something, set off a charge or whatever -- but that's another matter.)
i am glad you mentioned that ---- that struck me right away too, it was like watching a Roger Federer precise tennis shots or Connor McDavid picking off a top corner in hockey. when people master a skill it is amazing to watch.
What really irks me is when guys kiss their fish before release.

Nice! No hoot and holler, no swearing. Humble.Peaceful. Thanks!
Best kayak fishing channel I have seen in my whole life.. calm and clear.. no jumping and screaming like everyone else. Love it
Led me to think
Man, you are a terrific caster, it's not easy throwing those things under the trees and bushes and not getting hung up all the time. Great channel!
Agreed, his casts are excellent!
Those casts were all edited out. lol
@@brainkill7034 I wonder how many lures he actually lost😃 I know I would have.
Master Caster!
Thanks for taking me along! I enjoyed "our" fishing trip! I was so into it and relaxing!
Ima newbie to fishing my dad never showed me or took me fishing but watching you cast and talk about where ur fishing and just watching you enjoy fishing is aweosme to watch. One love brother
You catch anything good? I was in the same position, you can learn a lot from just watching people fish
@@TheStripeGod unfortunately no
This is hands down the best fishing channel.
Hands up u mean
Absoluteley
Certainly helps his case when he doesn't spend half of his video being at a gas station or restaurant, cooking some super over the top and bloated recipe for fish that no one is going to bother with, being educational every single second of fishing, or talking about literally anything else but fishing before he actually goes fishing.
@@PrimalFlamesPCE Hey man, educational channels like TacticalBassin are good for the culture. The rest I agree with. 😂
Easily…Once I subbed and started using what he was I’ve been catchin trophies
So nice to see green trees and blue skies! I just came in from shoveling snow.
I've had other BPM baits czcams.com/users/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 before and they've pretty much always came through for me with the suskie smallies here and even with the walleye and pike, but I realized I didn't have an "in-between" pattern so this junebug one fills that role in no problem. it pairs up magnificently with a junebug Zoom Z-craw Jr that was trimmed a couple millimeters before the hook slots and rigged sideways for that fatter panfish side profile while still being a nice'n'compact presentation, a real power-finesse bait. Hell, it was so pretty I even bothered to fotosketch the pic into a watercolor painting image just to show you it's beauty! Even the blades are really well made, sure, they're not of Hildebrandt-level exquisiteness but look at the bead's reflection on the colorado blade, definitely well-made! The only "problem" spot it had was a bald spot in the skirt but it was nothing that I couldn't easily fix with a but of tuggin'n'shiftin' with the strands for a couple of seconds, besides that it is pretty minty!
I can’t believe how good this guy is at casting. Like…he could literally hit a bullseye if you had one in the water somewhere.
Eaier to place a heavier lure
And the distance is also impressive
Hahaha - first time I've ever seen an imitation 'Rat' used for fishing. That's a first for me! 😃👍
Thank you so much for still having content to release in winter. It keeps me sane
The Bob Ross of fishing is back! All those happy little lures catching happy little fish. Love this channel.
I see I'm not the only one who calls him Bob Ross LOL. Going to stick now!
I still think this should be a drinking game. 😂
My goodness, he so is the Bob Ross of fishing! You nailed that one
LMFAO 😂
So funny this was exactly what i was thinking
Beautiful day! Thanks for sharing the outdoors with everyone, and thanks for displaying pure, ethical sportsmanship for others to model after!
Ahhh...glad I found this channel! No BS, no fake corny emotions. No hand and fingers rolled up in a fist held to your mouth "Oh my God Oh My god" "Did you just see that?". Appreciate the quality content, and your skill. This makes me miss the personality and culture of the upper midwest. Thanks.
So thankful you save warm weather vids to post in the winter. I needed this!
honestly
I used to live in Riverdale, ND and this is bringing back great memories of fishing below the Garrison dam. So beautiful. Thank you for the video!
Really enjoying your channel. Fun, honest, fishing with no BS. Bonus points for being one of the few fish-tubers who is in no way obnoxious 😂. Tight lines!

Cool
As always, excellent video. Thanks for being out there and letting us follow along.
So, I noticed something odd about your videos, ND; when watching your vids, I get a feeling of calm relaxation that I myself do not achieve when I am out on the water...your "zen-ness" is just awesome. As others have said, there's no obnoxious music or forced emotions; you're just a guy in a kayak enjoying a day doing what you love! Maybe I'm too invested in myself when fishing vs. watching someone else, but DAMN are you great to watch! Thanks for the videos and advice! I hope to one day get up to the Boundary Waters for a 7-10 day kayaking trip and land me some of those Pike they're famous for. FISH ON!!!
After a bunch of hammer handles, he finally got into some nice, respectable, sized pike. Fun to watch.
It’s called getting out to nature. Very calm
Wow, the swimming motion of the lure looks very realistic. I have never seen a rat lure before, so cool. 👍🎣
It's one off my favorites and use it daily.
Nothing better than being able to share your fishing adventures. The rivers and scenery are amazing and the fish are to. Thanks for sharing
I get into your videos so much, you do a wonderful job taking us fans through the journey with you. I swear, each video goes so quick because of pure enjoyment, the video finishes and I'm thinking to myself that it feels like it just started! You could produce 1-2 hour videos and I can promise you fans like myself would love it! Such great stuff. Makes me dream about open water. 18" of ice melting to go haha!!!
I might still have an hour long video of wade fishing up a stretch of river for smallies! I haven’t started editing it yet but I lost count of the fish I caught on that trip. There’s a couple other awesome trips I still need to edit too before fishing weather returns here.
@@ndyakangler I'd watch that all day! Take care.
Wow i cant believe he actually replied 🤙🏽🎣🙏
@@ndyakangler Do you ever keep pike to eat?
This guy is like the Bob Ross of fishing
Your content and fishing videos are simply top notch doesnt matter what your fishing for I watch them all keep up the awesome work and tight lines.
Sweet video, feeling the natural surroundings in the sound of bird calls and rushing water, some outstanding casting accuracy around/under trees, and a number of nice fish brought in to boot, thanks for sharing.
The accuracy and speed with which you cast is very impressive.An entertaining and informative video. Thank you
I always hit the like button BEFORE I watch the video. This guy never disappoints!
😂 same
hahaha same!
Same.
same
The best fishing sounds, commentary, imagery, and execution of task ever 👌
I have never watched a fishing video from start to finish until this.
I commend you. High quality stuff.
Thanks! This one worked out well where the big fish I put a teaser clip in at the start was caught toward the end of the trip/video. Most of the times in the past that big topwater smash was right at the start of the day lol.
Thanks for taking us along. Very relaxing.
My parents have been fighting lately and you inspired me to go fishing with my family and make them make the fighting stop. Thank you for inspiring me to go fishing..
Let us know how it's been gong. I hope they have stopped the fighting and have returned to normal. Fishing is a great way to do it. Also, rent a cabin and have cook-outs at state parks
I have said it before and i will say it again. Sir, your casting ability is second to none!
You have such a laid-back, relaxing voice, it's a pleasure to listen to you.
Thanks for the ride-along! I gotta say you cast with some amazing precision - very impressive!
The accuracy of your casting always amazes me! Kudos brother
You know he edits the video when he smokes one up in the trees. lol
It’s called point n click
@@TEXCAP yeah i wanna watch him spend ten minutes trying to get his lure unf**ked, so entertaining. lol he has some of the longest cuts without edits and he has actually kept in some mess ups in some of his vids. dudes real. chill.
I love how calming these vids are
The nature sounds are very nice. I agree it is rather calming. 🎣😴
These back dated "winter" videos are kinda like heart beats.... good to know you still have a pulse! Hang in there spring isn't too far away!!
I don’t fish as a hobby/pastime but stumbled upon your channel and found it throughly enjoyable and relaxing 😊 👍
Another awesome fresh water fishing video , the best in America . And the whole thing was done with great commentary and No stupid music !
Have not watched your channel in some time but it's definitely one of my favorites !
Love the fact that you show yourself casting and casting and not catching anything. Sick of the highlight reels on other channels. Great video!
I never heard of this gentleman, but it was relaxing watching him fish, you got a sub sir!
Thank You!!!!! I feel like I went fishing. Good narrative, great to see the topwater. And yes, the precision casting is really cool to watch. Now, I'm watching in February in Maine.........gotta be patient for a while yet.
Quality video as always. Love the casting technique as well!
Buying my first kayak this spring because of your videos. Thanks for the content!!
Ascend 133x with a trolling motor on the front. Best $2200 I’ve ever spent
Ascend 10t or 12t are also pretty good options! Around the $1k range!
@@Rivers2Timber that what I want to get.
I got a yak 4 years ago because of Matt. Changed my life!
Buy used if u can, but crescent makes good kayaks
Been really stressed this week but listening and watching Matt fish really does help relax. Thank you Matt. Happy Easter to you love listening to the birds chirping
Love the point of view fishing. Ace job handling those fish. A lovely body of water. Thanks for the trip!
You got some mad casting skills, my brother.
Watching this guy made my blood pressure go down ten points! He’s so calm and can real sling that bait..lol..
I've been fishing spots and stripes my entire life. Watching you test these strange new lures out is great and has helped me learn new things to try and catch so many more fish than I thought was possible. Topwater is the best! Thank you for the time you spend making these vids.
This is my favorite way to start a morning
I've been a subscriber for a good while and I couldn't be happier to see the numbers your getting these days!... Your the Bob Ross of fishing... a very ASMR/chill vibe to your videos....(dude has never asked once to click or subscribe or comment, or buy some merch.)...Godbless and Godspeed to all the fishing family! Tight lines everyday!
You're so charizmatic and skilled at fishing. Really enjoyed this video.
I can vouch for that awesome control over the placement of your lure! Nice, some of the best casting I've seen. Good luck on the biggie. 👀🎣❤️💯
From the very beginning I was in tension as though it was me who was fishing and waiting for the water surface to explode as a monster snaps at the lure. My favourite fishing channel hands down. The best moment of my Sunday before going to bed, definitely.
You're an expert shot with that bait casting reel. Don't get many Pike or Muskie this far south so it's nice to see fishing that I've never done. Thanks for sharing.
Love watching your videos -have a great 2023 fishing season!
Fishing's own Bob Ross!
Great content, brother. THIS is what fishing is all about. It's not a rock and roll show.
Dang man just love these videos really look forward to them you’re getting me SO unbelievably pumped for fishing season! Ima have to get me a rat and some of those swim baits to toss on my recently acquired first bait casting set up! Thanks Matt!
Yes!! Love it when you post!!
As an Aussie, this is the best fishing channel! So good.
Excellent video! During times of stress, it seems that a good fishing and camping trip is the perfect remedy. Your videos relax me.
After watching a few episodes, i feel comfortable saying you are the Bob Ross of fishing.
That lure is incredible as is your casting precision. Subbed.
You have a very pleasant voice and I LOVE FISHING!! I’ve never seen that lure. I Jesse to deep sea fish for the big tuna! I’ve lost count how many I’ve caught but what a joy. Thank you for sharing this
Brilliant upload man, I've watched a lot of fishing channels however you keep it simple and don't dress it up, very watchable mate,and lovely river pike too!!🎣🎣🎣🐊🐊🐊💯
Love your videos! Great success almost always
What is the best fresh water to fish for Salmon in Michigan?
It's amazing how much nicer your winters are than over here in Michigan! 😆
@@x1sirius Uh, that was a joke.
First youtube fisher i've seen with a net and set the hooks just hard enough to not damage the fish to bad, love how calm you stay in the video's
The precision of your casts are amazing!
Looks like a great day on the water! Tough to beat hooking into some nice pike!
Matt you rock! Love the channel and content! Peace
Just flawless looking fish, I like when you hold them up to the camera. Great job, thanks............
There’s a very soothing vibe to your content! Very entertaining and beautiful scenery but also very calm in the best kind of way. I think in large part to you narration approach. Great content!
Don't you love the fact that he catches a big pike he needs two hands to hold stable, and says "It's just a small one," meanwhile the biggest fish I've ever caught was a 4 1/2 pound smallmouth bass. 🤣 I love your content, keep it up, man!
Gosh, this makes me miss the central and north central Midwest. I’m 64 originally from Kansas and moved to south Texas Hill Country. Lots of wildlife, but 100 degrees like everyday June - October. Not many “lazy” rivers around here either. They dry up fast. Great Channel.
Im 65 and live in TX also...its March and hot as hell already......we are going to fish off-shore this weekend out of Freeport....good luck!
Youre making me fall in love with South Dakota. Some nice water here and definitely some nice Pike. I always enjoy your videos. Great content.
cool:) That rat lure have a nice movement in the water! Theres a small lake with pikes nearby were I live. The back of the pikes there are pitch black with barely visible patterns with no spots. Only a small portion on the underside are white/greenish. The bottom of the lake are black, covered in alot of debree and old branches etc. Greetings from Norway!
I can’t wait for spring. Definitely gonna try a rat this year.
Rats rock. I paint them and fish 'em and I am rarely disappointed.
Sir, you are the Bob Ross of fishing. It’s the smooth calm voice!!!
Great video. It's very soothing and relaxing watching you enjoy your outdoor pastime
These videos are great,makes me want to fish more each time i see them.i was a die hard lake fisherman,now i see river fishing is where its at.keep posting these videos,there great.
River fishing is awesome! The fish seem a little more aggressive on the river and they relate to structure and current breaks that are a lot easier to see without electronics. Here where the wind almost never stops you can always find some calm spots on the river too.
Epic dude 🐟🐠🍣🎣
Just found yr channel, ND fishing is great. Lived there for 20 years or so and fished many body of waters . This has brought back good memories ty.
Looks like a great day on the water! Thanks for sharing… 🎣
I know absolutely nothing about fishing, but even I can tell that this guy knows exactly what he’s doing.
I call you the "Bob Ross of CZcams anglers". You calmly say "That's exciting", when snagging these monsters, and I would be having heart failure! Very entertaining and informative videos. I don't have these monsters near me in Oregon, but I'm going to try the whopper plopper for smallies this year.
The Bob Ross of fishing. Very relaxing time. I wish I was there with you. 😉
Some great casting going on, now that is precision thanks for posting 👍
Pescaria top amigo 🎣🎣🔥
Awesome.
Outstanding casting from that kayak. Was a fun video to watch.
Wow. This was so relaxing a genuine. Thank you for just being a normal (although supremely gifted) caster instead of a showboating, annoying anything-for-views fisherman.
Water is frozen here. Snowing we we speak. I don’t know how much longer I’ll last but I sure could use a little kayak action right now
Hang in there buddy. He mentioned this video was filmed in June, I'm sure north Dakota looks just like wherever you're at right now.
Freeze! Turn spell-check on! That’s your first warning.
Looking forward for this to be a regular thing again for you. I’m sure you’re missing it. Hope things went well for you this winter and didn’t have to pick up any extra jobs or anything.
Hoping I see you on the water this upcoming spring good sir. Always nice to get a taste of summer in these videos during these bleak winter months.
i agree with russell this guys casting is NICE sometimes i can get a bit cocky when fishing with my friends but this guy would calmly show me a thing or two
Man, how did you learn to cast like that; your placement is perfection!
Lots of practice! River fishing helps with accuracy too, most of the time there’s a target I’m aiming my cast at.
I broke my shoulder from a bike accident at the start of the year and haven't went fishing this season. Your videos have been amazing to watch and help me plan my first trip once I'm healed.
Get that Casting Arm back in shape 😉👍🏻
