HARD to find another RUclipsr that makes you feel like you're literally sitting in the kayak like this guy does 👏
well said dude 👊🙂
When that tankbass hit, my laptop got yanked off the desk
Yeah i'm fishing vicariously through this guy while my elbow is jacked. :(
G.O.A.T.
He’s my favorite
Matt, having recently made my first few kayak fishing excursions, my appreciation of your total boat control has increased exponentially. And i wasn't even on a stream, just a couple of small lakes to essentially get a "feel" for things. I just hope to get half as good as you are at handling all aspects of it. Thanks for your work here.
With the current speed this time of year it’s tricky! Lots of one hand on the paddle trying to keep my kayak straight while trying to one handed reel in slack with the other.
@@ndyakangler Well, in my humble opinion, you do a stellar job of it.
@@ndyakangler could you try the heddon crazy crawler

@ndyakangler try Berkeley choppo game on brother 😊
Dear NYD, I am thoroughly enjoying your fishing adventures: A quiet, peaceful voice, a passion AND you practice 'catch and release' as I do. Wonderful! Thank You Good Sir. FMR Intelligence Officer
Your workflow is so impressive. you have a little place for every piece of equipment and you are always able to grab just what you need without any fuss or hassle. i love your videos, thank you for sharing
When he took the time to point the camera back up and appreciate the history of that old wooden bridge, it reminds me why I like this channel so much. Also, you rarely see any other people in these videos makes you feel like you’re the only person on earth. So peaceful and relaxing. Thanks.
When Matt enters the water, the theme music from Jaws should be playing! The lures are actually made to catch the fisherman.
Of course, all lures catch way more fishermen than fish!
Fishing new lures is half the fun!
@@kaioken6969,
And picking them out!
You can't judge a lure on a few hours of casting,but I get what you mean.
Much more fun when u make your own. Love what I do
Another amazing video from the best yak angler on the platform 💯💯🔥🔥
Thank you, Matt, for another relaxing, peaceful trek on a quite little river punching holes in the water for some beautiful smallies, it just doesn't get any better than that! Take care and be safe!
Beautiful saturday morning with mug of coffee and yak fishing for smallies...👍🇺🇸🍻
Just a master at your craft. Feel grateful that you take the time to make them!
Good outing for a lure trial. Like the honest reviews and I too thought it was gimmicky. I'll stick with the original 75 and 60 Ploppers and some knock off 110 versions I found that hold up pretty well. The smallies started to respond and that little stretch of river looked peaceful. Blessings Matt
Another great start to my morning. Thanks for what you do and sharing the experience.
Thank you. Your videos are the best compensation for not having own time to fish.
Great to see the old yak! When not hearing the double plopper I appreciate the water on the oars. Thanks, Angler
The places you fish look amazing, never see another angler. I watch your vids during work an gets me amped to go out on the weekend. 👍
Thank you for yet another great video! I'm getting excited about doing some St Lawrence fishing this coming week, gonna spend a few days with my brother, who lives there. I don't get out much, at age 81, but I till get my fix with this channel and with a few days out on the water. I got a new baitcasting rod and reel, and will be using braid and fishing some of the same lures you've demonstrated. Can't miss! Thanks again for keeping this old guy in the game!
Thank you for all pf your hard work making these videos. I, like many, truly love and appreciate them
Good that you had two of those double down ploppers. They can keep each other company in the dumpster.
At 4:34 i heard the intro to ACDC’s Hell’s Bells. Hope you don’t get copystruck Matt! Awesome as always, and thanks for taking us along.
I should have started complaining about it, probably would have triggered a big pike or muskie strike lol
Sir, you are reigniting my desire to start fishing again! Thank you!
Why did u stop?
I did too. Went through a long bout of drinking and depression. I really miss fishing.
I don't know if I can handle fishing on Saturdays. I'll put this in queue until Sunday morning with my breakfast
Dude the way you say smallies is so zen and puts a smile on my face every time
Another relaxing video, thank you from an OEF veteran.
Be blessed.
Matt, your videos are very enjoyable and we appreciate what you do, thank you.
You have to be one of the accurate at casting on RUclips!
This makes me want to get out on my kayak and go for pike and bass! Great video man
Love watching your vids with my morning coffee. My morning meditation i guess. The calm before the storm of my work day.. Man i miss the Midwest. So beautiful. I live in Vegas. Gonna be 117 degrees today 🥵. 8 am and already over 90. I've been watching your ice fishing vids dreaming of the cold Anyways, love you vids Matt..they hash up memories of fishing in Wisconsin and Michigan when i was a kid! Keep em coming!
Sorry for you with record breaking heat😉😩
Ten minutes until your first fish and I was never bored
'For a few bucks more, go w/the original Plopper'. I agree! You got into some Footballs as you always do! I can't get over how different your Smallies there are built vs. our Central Indiana Creek & River Smallies. Thanks for making such great Videos man!
Nothing beats the original Whopper Plopper!!! Munky Butt color is my go to!!
Making it look easy, as usual. I would have been crossed up under that bridge for sure. This morning I rolled it in the surf, broke a rudder, lost one rod and one tackle box to the Pacific. First time doing that in 15 years of kayak fishing. Not one cast made but a very expensive outing. I was happy to see your video so I could see how it’s SUPPOSED to be done!! Ha ha!!
I’ve seen a few clips of guys launching in the surf, definitely looks like it can be challenging!
100+ in SW Idaho makes for short days on the water. Your content has become my vicarious excursion. Thanks for that.
Thank you for the awesome videos! The Pelican lake, MN smallies were absolutely crushing my perch plopper the other day.
Happy birthday to me! Great way to spend a morning after not catching anything lol
This guy is the Bob Ross of fishing!
That Is The Best Top Water Lure Hands Down
Love the precision of your casting! Great vid!!
That's fishing, some days You load the boat others You don't but a few quality fish make it all worthwhile and Any shallow summer smallies on top water is a great way to go the hits were explosive great job
Thank you for the relaxing way you make fishing content. Its such a nice break from most other youtube fishermen!
afternoon video best news of the day...will watch later today :)
Greetings from Poland :D Tomorrow Carp fishing for me :D
I love the scenery in this video, especially the old wooden trestle. Great vid.
My whole life just got flipped upside down. I think I’m gonna buy a kyak and learn to fish
Do it! We use ours on lakes and the Pacific Ocean and catch so many fish!!
@@thecrispeoutdoors3721I have 9$ to my name and a dream! lol.
@@thecrispeoutdoors3721how you keeping a live well on a kayak though?
@@the-potato-warrior we don't have a live well. We release all our freshwater fish and keep the ocean ones for eating. We just throw them in the bottom of the kayak lol
@@thecrispeoutdoors3721 I’m just starting my fishing journey. But I thought you needed to bleed and keep ‘‘em on ice or alive to keep the meat from spoiling?
Matt breaking out his navigational skills.. His fishing skills go with out saying.Outstanding!!
The fact that wherever you fish at the water is soo clear 😮
As always, thoroughly enjoyed the video. Thanks.
I’m going to agree on the lure. W.P. 75 would be a better choice from what I have seen in your videos where you used one. Thanks for taking me along.
Just bought one of those tarpon 120s. Wish I would have sooner!!
Congrats! They’re really great kayaks! I’ve had my camo one for about ten years now and it’s held up great! I did find a little crack under my seat the other day I’ll have to plastic weld but for the amount of use I’ve got out of it I’m surprised I haven’t worn a hole through the hull yet!
@@ndyakangler yeah that’s a pretty impressive amount of time to get of a kayak that you use predominantly for River fishing. Definitely like it better than my old town PDL!
@@ndyakanglercould you please make a video of that repair, thanks.
lol... let go and you're free
💪💪. My River to Sea favorite plopper has been bounced off of rocks multiple times and still going. She is all scratched up from pike too. That thing is a workhorse. I will also say that i owned nothing for bass fishing before i found your channel. Was big into walleye. Now i own a fishing kayak, with power pole, multiple rods and reels, full line up of topwater and submerged lures, a gopro...
I do online bass tournaments where you fish wherever you want within the guidelines. Thanks for the inspiration as it is one of my favorite things to do.
That’s awesome I’m glad you’re having a blast!
That trestle is a fascinating structure. I'd stop fishing for a look around under it. Sometimes you stumble across strange places while fishing. Hiking a trout stream others pass by can bring about some interesting sights.
Matt you make very relaxing and enjoyable video's and I really enjoy them :)!
Larry Dahlberg made a W1NNER with the Whopper Plopper. They are THEE LURE. Built with quality and many try to copy it. A True Trendsetter in this Game. GET THE WHOPPER PLOPPER!
And their hooks are thick and come to a laser point.
I just know that after he releases his smallies, all the stress of life just disappears. That’s exactly why I love this hobby
Another nice video.Yes the lure worked but not a good advert for it.Remember though a lot of fishing tackle is not made to catch fish it's made to catch anglers which it does well.Nice upload happy fishing 🐻🐒🤗👍
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BASSMANG ! ! ! ! !! ! ! 👋🤓
a whole month, oh noooooo call the COPS lol 🤪
13:14
DAAMMMMM bro that was a nice strike from a fine fish...🥰
wow eh, 3 fish an the lure is pooched ... prolly cost you 25 -30 bucks, thats cdn btw lol
23:31
fine Kayak'ing skills my dude 😎👍
Mighty fine product assessment dude 😊👌, anyone both amateur or journeyman should take your assessments to heart..
(if they are worth their salt as a fisherman that is lol)
thx for takin me along on your excursion..
ill keep an eye peeled for your next vid.
be safe an take care Matt 👋🤓
I really like the Topper Stopper. Similar Design. 1 Piece lure with a prop on the front and back spinning different directions. Great for bass.
SMALLIES!! Great looking water and awesome catches!!❤️🔥
Thanks for sharing your day with us.
NDYaker, love your videos. They are so relaxing and easy to enjoy. If I may, I am now in the habit of dipping my ruler in the water. I just think it helps cool it off and protects the slim on the fish. Was wondering if you ever thought of that....Please keep doing what your doing, I love them...
Hey I love your videos and I would like to say thanks for sending the fishing goods to my friend a while back.
loveeee your videos man love chillin and watching fishing kayak videos haha great content bro!
Nice fish! Another cool location where topwaters work. The double plopper seems like a berkley choppo 90. Maybe fish liked the more slender body for mid season. Hopefully the one lure was just defective as it looked really good and now know it catches river monsters. Thx for the post brother😎👍
Love your videos, envious of the huge fish you catch.
A slow day on the river beats a busy day at work any day🐟
As always the very best fresh water fishing either on T.V. or the WEB and No stinking to ruin it either !
No stinking music to ruin it either L.O.L.
Plopped up some smallies myself yesterday.
Another Adventure for sure Matt. Really enjoyed the bridge challenge! Take care
Matt, someone in the Kayak Fishing Dad Fbook page had a top water lure that looked like a kayak. I recommended they send it to you to fish! lol Thanks for the work. I always enjoy your videos.
that trainbridge is one of my favorite swimming spots
I bet it would be a good spot for that! There’s a trail that runs all along the river there I should shore fish along farther up to the dam some time.
They like the little areas of current here in Fort Worth too. Especially when the water temps are in the 90s. Those were some good blowups on the plopper
Good job!
Sandals shaming worked guys!😂😂😂
Your videos are awesome! And you actually inspired me to break out my old GoPro!
Would love to see another fan made bait video
back at it again!!! never caught a smallie in my life but thanks to you i feel like i have 😂
Bro if you ever get the chance you should. So fun to catch
@@johnhayes4454 id love to man, they don’t have em in south carolina tho 🙃
I LOVE catching smallies!!
That 2nd fish was really nice
At the beginning of your video, you sounded like “fishing with Bob Ross”, smooth and mellow. Lol
Love the smallie vids 😁.. never gets old
That looks like Lake Ogechi. Smallie heaven up there.
I love your content. My friends dad referred you to me and I have been itching to watch more ever sense. Keep up the good work on the videos!
Great vid
I needed this. Rough day. Thank you!!
Perfect spot for sinko under the bridge
If that current was just a little slower, it’s tough even getting a 1/4oz jig to stay down there.
Well Matt, not every lure you try will bring in a boat load. It would of been nice just to see if the Whopper Plopper would’ve in fact brought in a few more “Smallies”,🤷♂️
Regardless though, that was some nice navigating you demonstrated going in and around those rocks and pillars.👍
The most relaxing 26mins I’ve spent on my phone in quite awhile. Thanks again,Matt.😉
I’ve had better luck fishing these plopper type lures at a medium, steady, pace vs. little pops like you were fishing it. Great video man! Keep up the awesome work and fish on!!!
this is what i needed today thank you
That's my go to lure for fall topwater wiper fishing.
Great video, Matthew!
I follow the channel from Germany.
I myself have been a hobby angler in Germany for 35 years.
Perch, pike and sea trout in the Oste River.
We don't have aggressive smallmouths.🥵🥵🥵🥵
A youtube post with catching and cooking would be nice.
Nice to see my favorite fisherman again.
I agree with those who've observed that NDYakAngler doesn't use clickbait titles and doesn't scream to make fish seem bigger. I love this guy's style. He also doesn't say "boys" when addressing his viewership. As a female angler, I always feel left out when i hear "boys."
Matt is awesome. I think he could name this channel Stoic Fishing lol.
I saw these at Bass Pro the other day, I thought about it lol but this video justifies it! I’d rather the regular Plopper! Thaaankkkksss!!!
Typical BPS lure haha. Your popper vids are usually hot and heavy. As often as you fish them, I highly recommend you try the Luxxe Avenge Prop 70. You should definitely grab one. It's one of my 3 favorite, most productive top water smallie baits. Would be awesome to see you using tossing it in one of your future videos. You won't be disappointed!
I’ll check it out! I’m always up for trying a new prop bait!
@@ndyakangler Awesome! The Hook Up Tackle or Ebay should have them. Would love to see a video of it in use... I guess the cats outta the bag now 🙄
Love the videos bro!
My favorite fishermen/streamer/smallmouth enthusiast fish #2 wow. Had to comment before finishing the video lol. I'm headed to the northern u.p in a week, i hope to find my own tanks up there 🤞
Man i love your videos, they are so relaxing to watch ;)
I’d love to kayak some spots with you if I was closer ! Always beautiful out there
