My Profile:
www.mattstefanfishing.com/
I was born and raised in Chicago, but after working 12 years in the financial Industry regulating the futures and options markets at the CME/CBOT I decided to pursue my passion fishing professional tournaments and left my full time corporate job. At that point, I moved to Junction City, WI with my wife Sara and two boys Hank and Duke. I've been fishing professionally since 2011 and full-time since 2015. I've qualified for seven MLF Championships and won over a half million in tournament winnings at the professional level. Спорт
I've been fishing for fifty years and just learned something fundamental from this about fish location. Magic. Thanks!
Great to hear!
Have you tried the shimano world pop? The flash boost really makes sense on them, so you can leave them idle forever.
Nope
I like a stick with tiny tail spinner attached it’s subtle kills on flat days or highly pressured places
Awesome
I just finished setting up 1 of my poppers today like the past video you made about them. I tied buck hair, flashaboo and duck feathers on the tail. Thanks
Sounds great!
All great choices. I may add a tube and a floating worm.
Nice!
I love fishing the popper
Me too
When using the popper on calm days I find at times they’ll just slap at it so I always have a wacky rig ready for a follow up.
Good call
This is gold. Thanks, Matt.
You bet
My best days were sunny calm days on my home river. A cheap $2.99 bps popper in bleeding shad caught 2 of my 3 top biggest bass of the year. The other was on a kvd square bill crankbait in gizzard shad!
Thanks for sharing
Pretty much the same as my list. A small spook works as well.
Awesome
Nice. Same exact presentations I utilize on calm, sunny days 👌
Great 👍
Good stuff! Thanks! The Ned with TRD has bailed me out on the last couple trips in 53º-55º water.
Good stuff!
Great stuff as always, thank you!! The Ned rig has been my go to here in the middle of the country. Sometimes I will pair it with a hand tied green pumpkin maribou jig. It’s a very subtle presentation with a different look.
Right on!
Thanks for the tips Matt
You bet!
Good video Matt, good selection of baits and tips. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed!
Thanks Matt
you bet
Love throwing small pop-r's! What about real small minnow style baits on an A-Rig?
🍺Thanks Matt🤠.
Yes sir!
Mini carolina rig with zoom french fry... Thanks Matt ... your doing great .. keep up the good work... liking the podcasts with Castledine👍
Awesome! Thank you!
What pod cast? I like castledine
I like the drop shot using small baits
Awesome
Thanks Matt I was waiting for a top water.
No problem 👍
Other than a stick bait, for lakes, a split shot rig. Also, some select baits depending more on the time of year. For tidal water, an 1/8 oz. T-rigged worm or bb cricket.
Thanks for sharing
A fun bait to try is the Jackel piku piku. You'll catch everything on it to incude bluegill, perch along with bass and pike .if its shallow it will eat it. The interesting part is how different fish eat it. It had me giggling like a kid. But it must be dead calm slick to work.
I’ll check it out
Good stuff!!
Thanks!
Matt, I have a question for you. I’m taking a rod building class through Mudhole next week and I’m going to upgrade my blank for a Swimjig rod for fishing in Florida. Can you please tell me what MHX casting rod blank model you use for Swimjigs so I can order it? I’m looking for a rod in the 7’3”-7’5 MH power with a mod fast or fast action whatever you recommend. I usually fish 40-50lb braid to a 25lb shock flourocarbon leader depending on water clarity. I appreciate any help you can provide and love your channel. I’m a big fan of everything you do. Keep up the great work and best of luck this season. Thanks Matt
The NMB-874 is my swim jig rod and i love it!
@@MattStefanFishing thanks so much for your help I will definitely order one
Matt,
When is the Core Tackle swim jig hitting the market? Also waiting on the weighted wacky rig.
Shooting for a Bassmaster classic launch
Sounds good, thanks Matt.
Have you tried the hover rig on the Berkeley power stinger? just curious if it’s worth trying
Yep! It works! One of Hanks go to baits for the hover rig
On the Ned rig would you add a propeller blade on it? I saw a while back you showed us that setup.
Sometimes i do
@@MattStefanFishing when would you use this? I really like this rig but trying to figure when to use it?
I just bought a bone and a Maverick of the 80 size poppers today
Awesome!
In spring pre spawn flat calm days, hundreds of smallmouth Suspend a couple feet under the surface and will not bite anything and I mean anything. Once you get close to one, it slowly swims off and down deeper. The lake has 20ft water clarity and you can just see brown spots all over and they're all big smallmouth. Strange.
They are warming in the sun. Largemouth do it to
Matt, do you tie a loop knot on the popper or tie directly?
I generally tie direct
@@MattStefanFishing thanks
I think a fluke on a heavy hook ewg, is deadly!
Yep
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks
I’ve got to get me some Zoo Dogs
Yep
Matt, I choose not to use FFS, yet I have no problem with those who do. I do fear one possible impact. I hope that FFS does not retard R&D with regard to traditional lures. I fear certain, traditional lures, may be gin to disappear from the market as more and more anglers employ FFS.
Thanks for watching
