Hooray! My hands were shaking as much watching as yours were in the video. I'm so happy my baits are getting out into the world and making a name for themselves. They grow up so fast, *sniff*
I don't want to break your workflow, but I'm most excited to see the one with three trebles (don't want to give away what it is) catch some pike. The walking bait sits very low, but it walks like a champ, I tested it.
I’ll probably go check a couple pike spots in the next week or two, I’ll make sure to bring that lure along!
Well done! As I previously posted, this has to be gratifying. Very generous of you to make and send them, too. This one was a hit! I would put it in my regulars category.
Those are yours Dave? Well done brother. What an endorsement. I sure hope things go upwards for you my man. Those are some TASTY smallness. I imagine they might be tasty too. I will be watching for you.
David, make a video of how you make these if it's not a secret...
@@majstorceremonije557 I learned from Marling Baits; if you watch every video he's ever made and make a hundred failed lures, you'll be about where I am. None of it's secret, just lots of learning, practice, and tools
What a gratifying exchange this is - someone working hard to make something with their own hands (including the personalized notes) for (one of, if not) their favorite content creators, and seeing their labor smash the fish on that channel. How cool! Well done, both of you.
Yeah this video makes me happy because I know the person who made these is watching and enjoying that he’s catching TONS of fish on his lures
You’re making me cry
That’s what it’s all about 🥹
👏🏻 🎣
Not enough of that in this world. This is the stuff that makes life magical and worth living.
You know its a good day when ND posts
100 % truth on that :)
Yup! Him, Richard Gene and Primanki are only YT fishing channels i watch. All amazing, true fisherman with respect for nature. Last one is from Poland though with no captions. But check them out regardless.
Indeed!
Well said
And on a Sunday 😊
Person that made the lures, nice job. Another great video.
Is he pinned? Would love to know how to make cork frog. Seems possible for starter lure.
@@corkyvanderhaven3391 I learned from Marling Baits, plus lots of failure. Earlier videos tend to have more steps explained
@@davidmattingly1574 would u sell some?
@@1Michaelfishing if he selling I would get some too
That's awesome! Would love to see you try out a couple other lures from that box.. absolutely love custom homemade lures. 👌
my first question was it’s durability but he answered that with the thru wire design, seems like he’s good at what he does
Dude you are the bob Ross of fishing I could watch this all day great work
🤣facts
I'm impressed that you took the time to use lures made by a fan. I had mad respect for your mastery of the sport and second to none level of entertainment, now I know without a doubt that you are a genuinely good hearted soul. Thanks for the excellent videos and showing us there are still good people in this jacked up world.
Hands down my favorite fishing channel.
Watching that cork popper work that well is so satisfying. The dude who made it is probably smiling ear to ear. 😂
Well done.
I've been tying flies for almost 40 years and the best dry flies are always the simplest. Just a piece of cork, shaped like a time capsule pill, down to the size to fit between a 20-24 hook. Painted simple chartreuse colors. Green, Orange. Sometime not painted at all. Teeny tiny. Trout don't leave it alone.
Years ago I was in a small tackle shop in Walker, Minnesota and they had a big pike mount from that 1920's. A big one , over 40 inches. The lure? A large pine cone painted bright red, with three treble hooks and an integral wire leader. Brilliant. Those old timers made the most of what they had.
That cork lure is on fire 🔥! That’s a beautiful river!
RAMMING SPEED. I jumped 2 feet after that fish rammed the kayak. Great fun, really enjoy the videos. Thank you.
The honor to have the goat fish with your hand made lures must be extremely gratifying
My stepson really like this one, he laughed everytime you casted that cork. I don't know what was so funny but maybe the way it looks when you cast it
This guy is the Bob Ross of fishing. I can't believe no one has ever said this about him. Just crazy.
funny you should mention that
Definitely not the first and certainly not the last to think this. Still...needs to be said...cuz its true.
I just said it in one of his other videos, he gets that all the time from what I read 😆 🤣 🎨 🖌 🎣
@@Ellieangel777 o yeay comment was 100% sarcasm hahaa (:
@@royalandrosey 👍 😁
Man! Just the quality of the smallies you have up there ❤️
I know right!! I'm jealous of that river! I wish my local river was that good.
To be honest I never river fished until I discovered this channel and I’ve caught 4s out of there
"Any bad day of fishing beats any good day @ work with 2 EXCEPTIONS. (1) Winning the office pool lottery & (2) Watching your icehole boss get fired"~Mr. Robinson
You got me all excited and I made about nine or 10 of the popper frogs out of wine corks. I painted mine up in all different colors with nail polish, and then clear coated it with some varnish. I had 250 pound mono that I used to run through the lure and crimped it on both ends. I also added rubber skirts to the tail end. They look just like frogs! I’m sure when it gets warm enough, they’ll get hammered
Early on when you said "man I love smallmouth fishing" I thought it's hard for me to fish for anything other than bass; especially smallies except in the winter.
It would be even harder if the fishing was as good as you seem to have it. Also a "thank you" to the guy who sent in the lure(s), and to you as well Matt, for the great content we get to enjoy every time you post a video. God bless.
Lo9ve how softly that cork frog lands! Great to see that instant hit so often.
Man, I'm telling you - the best "bass fishing" channel on the tube!!!! I don't know exactly where you fish, but you have it dialed in. Excellent video!!!!!
man...this video bring a smile to my face. been a sub since you were 20k subs.. man a long way you came.
Can't wait to see the other three lures working! Love the fan-made lures series tbh, also used to build my own poppers back in days.
This David/Carbite dude, if he hasn’t already, should honestly try to start a lure making business. I’d definitely buy some
Hell yes. I would definitely buy some also.
I like that you show several casts before they strike.
What a consistent and satisfying channel. I've been watching for years now (2nd time watching this video) and I gotta say, sir your content is fantastic.
Yeah I enjoyed that greatly!!!lol! Cool you using a subscriber's home made lure n the interaction between yas!!! You are the Man of the rivers!
You have my favorite fishing video because you always are onriversandlakesthatare loaded with fish…and no one fishing but you!
This is one of the channels where I love seeing “no catch” casts.
I learn more Han teaching channels.
Plus, obviously we all love fishing with him. Especially, fun on a tablet, recommend it-
This is instantly one of my favorite vids , badazz to the both of you guys 🤙
what I absolutely love about this channel, this country and the people therein...
Someone, unknown to me and millions of others, took the time to create something like these poppers, package them and send to NDY
And yeah, that "one cast - one strike" is awesome too!!
You don't know how much this video meant to me! Thanks!
Super cool that your used a hand mande lure a fan made. Also kudos to the person who made that lure.
Being able to make lures is a really enviable talent.
That home made Frog lure is a killer and a keeper!!!!!!! Those Small Mouth Bass just don't want to leave it alone. Typical You, having another awesome Great day of fishing and I'm so envious!!!!!!!!! Topwater, jerkbait fishing has always been one of my favorite ways to catch fish.
I can definitely see this popper being moved into the main tackle box. Plenty of videos to be made with it!
Nothing better than a smallmouth video on a long car ride back home. ‼️‼️‼️🔥
That looks like a nice lure. And you actually caught some fish too.
Those are some Beautiful Small mouths. I really miss catching them.
Just watching what I consider a master angler.. your casting, sight fishing, working your lures, adapting to changing environment.. fun to watch.
Matt love the river videos on smallies...tis the season and that will be my Tuesday after Labor Day with the day off. Should have some water to myself. And using viewer/subscriber sent lures is very endearing. Well made for sure. I'm working with a couple of basswood topwater Poppers I crafted a while back. They're not the prettiest but they're catching fish. Restoring and Refurbishing the Hula Poppers that were forgotten about long ago is my passion. Nice day on the water with some quality fish
ThT one that jumped 4 feet in the are would make an awesome picture
Wow! It never ends lol. Just smashing em left and right. Love those homemade lures!!! I’d buy some in a heartbeat! What a beautiful river! NW MN has some amazing fishing!
Can’t wait to see more homemade lure testing videos I was wondering when we would get another one ☝️
What a great tribute to homemade lures. The smallie's certainly agreed.
Dude, you're the Bob Ross of fishing. Love your work. Fish on my man.
As Always, Great Video, That Lure Reminds Me Of My Very Old Jitter Bug, lol...
ND and carmite, this was awesome. Cheers from Hungary.
Love how you used a viewer's lures in your content. Super fun to see how successful that cork frog was!!!
Always a PLEASURE! God Bless! FISH ON!
Can you imagine the satisfaction the person who made this lure experienced watching NDYakAngler kill it with their homemade lure?
Nice, sturdy, effective lure.
Perfect way to spend a Sunday morning
The Mr. Roger’s of fishing. So smooth and calming. Love your vids! Thx from Montana
That guy made you some nice lures, caught some beauties!!
Appreciate you so much Matt. Can hear it pop …
I love the Bob Ross of fishing!
Carbite might be laid up sick , he said he couldn’t cut them loose for awhile . If you are , I pray you get better ❤️🩹 and get out there and catch some smallies. Great stuff , thank you for sharing . You rock NDYakAngler!!
Nah, I just don't have the time, equipment, or location to get on worthwhile bass
Love that bottle cork Popper! Cool stuff!
That's a beautiful work of art . Awesome popper , great catches 👍
Total success in catching smalleys on the cork bait. Very cool.
Wow, nice craftsmanship. Beautiful colors. And the so allies look like they love it.
Beautiful river and fishing spot, great footage and crushing the smallies. Awesome homemade lures....
My friend in North Dakota
s I have just caught up with several of your vids
and I , of course loved them , you are a great cinematographer
I was so impressed with how clean the waters are, plus how good the fishing is, that at the age of 65 and have the freedom to move anywhere I was
for a hot minute thinking I would relocate to North Dakota,, then reality hit home,,
by which I mean I am sure that the winters are too much for a old man like me to shovel how much snow I bet you get
plus I am now , here in the North east ( long Island ) tired of the cold winters ,,,, so let me just thank you or allowing me to enjoy the fishing there even it is only
in my dreams
The winters here are rough, and can seem to be never ending. Right now we should be starting to get some spring weather but it’s nothing but snow and cold weather in the forecast. We got quite a bit of snow dumped on us this winter although a snowblower is pretty much a must have if you own a home here and takes most of the work out of snow removal. If you make it through that summer here is about perfect and I don’t think there’s anywhere else I’d rather be.
Awesome video. Love watching you fish, it's relaxing. I hope you saw my comment on the cork lure !
Another great video! Beautifully shot and informative as always. They loved that popper. That one from under that tree was awesome! You’re a great fisherman, for sure, but you’re also a great steward of fishing. Your stock goes up every time you post.
Hope to see some more pike and musky soon!. That’s cool handmade lures
I have a muskie/pike video to edit for one of my next uploads, I’ll post that one in a week or two!
@@ndyakangler awesome looking forward to it
Like I've commented in the past, I think you could catch small mouth in a bathtub. But one of the things that really impresses me is that you respect your resource. Some fishermen catch a fish, haul it over the rocks, take the hook out and just heave it back into the water as it bounces off the bottom or the rocks. You catch your fish, take a measure and put it back in the water no worse for wear. Great job, great vids...
Good sir you have my vote for #1 fishing Chanel on You Tube!
The Jumps at 7:20 made my day! Homemade lure is working very well.
Love when you catch em on sub lures!!!
Thanks for doing this again
Another great video! Nice job on that lure Carbite. Looks like the fish loved it.
Best part of my day is when I see that you posted another video. Keep living your best life!
Thanks for bringing us along. Always peaceful
Great video - as usual, and a great, simple but effective lure. Good job!!!
What a genius idea Mr. byte!!
That made my Sunday!!!! I could watch you work your magic for hours on end! The handmade lures were like the frosting on the cake, well thought out and seem to work with intended purpose, congrats to the creator!!!
ND just put a cork in another great episode of yak angling!
I C what ya did there
I appreciate you taking me along with you on your kayak trip! You make it so enjoyable and the scenery is beautiful! That was a neat lure! You always do a good job!
One of the best fishing video around today! Great job keep up the good work. Thanks
Those smallmouth were ferocious! The jumps were insane! Awesome video 📹 👏 👍 🚣♀️ 🐟 🎣 😎
Very impressive results!! My admiration for the quality in the maker of the bopper, awesome job 👍. Thanks for your video it was a joy to watch!!
well done 2 peoples love of fishing the fisherman and the lure maker kudos to you for tring it nice episode truly enjoyed it thanks
Thank you for your wonderful video s I’m not able to get out and fish any longer but I love to top water fish so thank you to fish through you. 😊
Always sad when these videos end. Love popper fishing. Thanks as always Matt for letting us share in your gift.
Great video! Super lures sent in from your viewers! Great popper lure! I absolutely love your channel and am happy to have subscribed. Keep up the great job you do.
Thanks for the show
Your guys river is so beautiful. Have so many smallies too! Love the video
aaaaand of course he gets a fish with the 1st cast on a hand made cork popper while i spend 4 hours earlier today using god knows how many expensive "proven"
lures to catch a single perch and a small pike haha
Dude I spent four hours yesterday yakin up map rock in Idaho dropping my whopper plopper and even the fabled cheat bait at hour 3 I caught one bass lol about the size of my worm... This guy's a goat
Lmao! It’s all about knowing where the fish are! He calls every spot before he even approaches it! Try to get familiar with 1 waterway at a time to be like this!
Thank you for taking us along again..👍
Very cool cork lure and great video! Love this! Nice job, Carbite!🎣
Awesome video as always! Those were some nice smallies!
Fun use of trash ! Corkpopper on the list of making stuff ! Sweet channel !
Nice job ! Beautiful fish as always .
After seeing this I'm saving my corks........ANOTHER AWESOME VIDEO
what a great fishing experience you had with that simple but very effective top water lure! specially when it's homemade!! I think I could watch you catching smallies the entire day!! You are the Bob Ross of Fishing to me!! your videos are so relaxing to watch but exciting at the same time. Keep up the good work, been watching for several years now and gotta love your videos!! God Bless.
Absolutely slayed them. Nice video man.
