Just fishing. No sales pitches or promotions. Just fishing. Gotta love it. Thanks for the great videos.
No fancy camera work, no drone shots, no annoying music just awesome catches and the pure sound of nature 👍
He's like Bob Ross with a kayak and fishing pole instead of a color palette and brush. Happy little trees gives way to a tank of a smallmouth.
❤❤❤❤
Hadir pendatang baru kawan keren spotnya mancing sukses slalu buat kita semua salam sehat salam fishing ❤❤❤❤❤
Should give my channel a look. Not saying I’m better than anyone but I might have the biggest musky catch from a kayak with no net ever recorded... almost 45”
You just got a new fan! I’m going to be 66 on July 31 and I live with my nephew and his family who help care for me and they have a calico cat named Fiona that just started sitting on my desk next to my I pad and watched your video with me! A couple of times when you held up a bass she would paw 🐾 at it on the screen 📺 like she was trying to get it. We both love your videos and appreciate your work. Thanks for taking us along.
Happy birthday
This guy's rough year of kayak fishing is my dream year....
Amen to that….
The guy that is doing what we all want to do. 🎣
Real.
You got that right! This guy is as close to pro fisherman as it gets!
Not really I can do that anytime all I have to do is put my kayak in the water
@@Whatacatchtv OK, if you say so.
What many of us USED to do. Getting too old....
I’ll never forget “I’m back at it again”
I love these vids but that opening is WAY too similar to Kay's Cooking. LoL
The way you bring the river to life with your storytelling is amazing. Freddy the Frog deserves his own fishing show! Keep those lines tight, Matt!
I like how you pick one or two baits usually one and stick to it. I often bring way too much tackle when I go fishing.
I ALWAYS bring way too much tackle.
I, too, bring more gear and rods and end up using only 1 because it seems to work. However, yesterday, I went with a ton of stuff and ended up using some variety of it all. Mainly because I was set to be out all day, and as such, the conditions and targets change. It started with trying Topwater with a skitter pop, getting no success, then as more boats came out, I switched to a grub on a weedless jig. When those failed, I went in, had lunch, and tied on a wacky worm and a 3/8 Oz Husky Jerk. I then started ripping out bass with both. The only thing that I wanted to try was a Carrolina Rig worm, but my fish finder died, and I wasn't sure where the drop-off was. So I had to bail on that. I also hadn't fished for so long and so I am throwing as much as I can into the water and remember what it was for.
@@garvindreis The other day, my dad and I were bass fishing. I was using a variety of top water, crank and spinners, while he went with the wacky worm from start to finish. I didn't have a lot of success but he caught quite a few. I said that I was getting their attention and he was there to get the bite, so really we both caught the fish. :) LoL. Have fun out there all!
I ALWAYS bring WAAAY to much 😂❤ just makes it HARDER TO CHOSE
Another great video. I'm down here in Australia watching with my 5 year old grandson. He loves shouting, "Get in the net!"
Favorite time of the week! Saturday mornings!
Like the adult version of Saturday morning cartoons?
@@senval6511 yep!
You said Hit it like you mean it! That first one hammered it. 👊🏿💯
They must have been listening!
Broke my shoulder a couple weeks ago. No kayak fishing for me till fall. Thanks for keeping me on the water.
Get well soon!
It's tough being injured and not being able to go fishing when the bass bite is good. My situation is not as serious as yours (epicondilitis) but It will surely be three or four weeks without fishing.
Take the outmost care of your shoulder and you'll get well soon and have a marvellous fishing again.
Always a pleasure Matt, thanks for having us along. 👍
What is more exciting than a smallie or a bucket mouth devouring a top water. Living the dream!
Love the time on the water with ya . When you’re catching my favorite fish it’s even better.
LOL at 5:54, it looked like Matt pulled the fish's face off! Great job, Freddy!
Subbed! Man, loved it all, Freddy the frog, the calm demeanor about you. Great content! This is what it's all about. Tight lines Sir!
"I watched that one come up and eat freddie" had me rolling😂😂
Just love to fish !!! It is so peaceful calming for a person !!! But then you get that fish on the line and your heart runs like mad it is the most exciting thing in life !!!
You’re killing me, Matt! Throw some of those on the scale, please.
You have the best videos. I took up bass fishing last year and have learned a lot from your channel. Thanks and keep up the good work!
I always say the best anglers are whoever has the best casting abilities. You continue to prove that right!
Or whoever lives in the best fishing areas with loaded rivers and lakes.
@@marcuslinton310 This helps too
@@marcuslinton310he seems to be a good combo of that. His casting skills are amazing, but yeah these rivers he’s fishing are absurdly good fishing. You can’t find smallmouth fishing this good anywhere near me.
I am old enough to remember Freddie the Freeloader - Red Skelton. LOL - Nice Fishing my friend!
This was an action packed, on the edge of my seat, frogin video, Matt, I just can't see how it could be any better! Keep up the great videos, take care and be safe!
What a good day!
Freddie got it done.
Awesome bites and fights by the smallies and that bonus largemouth. A most entertaining video as always.
We love freddy
After fishing him a few times now I really like that lure, as long as the fish are hitting topwater hard! He fishes really well and has great action!
@@ndyakangler you're using the bigger one correct? there's a 3" and a 5"
Where do you guys order Freddy from?
@@isaiahfelder4245 I had a chat with the chillist dude he sells them.
@@isaiahfelder4245 There's another 2 on Ebay currently.. I have a feeling that this dealer has a stash of them. Just as soon as the last auction was over he had another pair ready to go.
Man, that was some good small mouth bass! Pretty colored. Ole Freddie came thru. Thanks for sharing. John.
Great video again you may get yourself a little boat for that kinda weather ☁️🎣
love westin, they make great lures and fishing poles, the frogs never dissapoints :)
We certainly did enjoy the day with you! That's a given! I checked on Freddy the Frog, but like you said, he's a scarce commodity - $20 - $40, depending on where you look, and I've already limited out on several of the other lures you've shown us. Hoping to be around long enough to use them all! 🙂Got another St Lawrence trip coming up next month, and I plan on using many of your tricks of the trade. Thanks g=again for another great video!
the only real youtuber on the internet. thank you so much for your content NDYakAngler!
In half an hour, this video has more views than most of mine get in a year 😂. As someone who knows all too well how hard it is to grow these things, you do an incredible job with your channel. Love it!
don't compare yourself to the GOAT. it did not work well for Lebronze
My favorite thing about Saturday (if I can't get out fishing). Thanks for the vids!
Hey Matt would you consider doing a video series on tips, tricks, techniques, etc?! Would love to learn even more from you!!!
Fish around and find out. Good advice. I like you said to that one fish " catch you latter". Thanks Matt.
Thanks. Small mouth are the most fun and hassle free fish in these parts, IMO. In one day of float tube fly fishing in a remote-ish no-motor lake a few hundred miles northeast of Matt's home, my fishing buddy and I caught over 400 smallies. It was pretty much like 9 out of 10 casts. I was even able to target specific fish in a group at times. Best day of fishing ever. We stopped counting at 200 a piece. My best was a 22", but on the skinny side. His best was a fatter fish, but 21.5".
Love the videos. So peaceful and something I love to watch after a long day of work. Keep it up and take care!
Nice bunch of smallies. Thanks for the introduction to Freddie.
Good fish man!! That little frog is a crusher in that river! Partially stained water perfect color. Fish on!!
Extra rad video! Keep slaying the smalleys!!! Your tips and set ups have helped me land a yak full!
I love watching your videos! thank you my dude!
Nothin annoys me worse than fishin in the wind.
Ol Freddie was workin it for ya. Good stuff.
same here.... slight wind keeps them skeeters away
@@gewglesux cool breeze is definitely welcome. Lol
Love the fishing and I love your relaxing voice and water noises! 👍🏽1️⃣
Another great video 😊. Wish we had rivers like that in northwest Georgia!
I love watching your videos. I live in Oklahoma and really, all the folks I talk to are struggling to catch fish this year.
favorite part of the week
Beautiful evening by the time you nailed the last beast!
Thanks for sharing this with us. Needed to get my zen going 😊
You sure know how to make lunchtime 100x better. As always great video Matt!
Letting it sit while u pay attention to something else then start and switch the direction 🤟you always get em like that
As a fly fisherman, I feel your pain with the wind. That alone can make or break a day on the water. Another great video - thanks for sharing!
Goat of youtube fishing.
Love your videos. Also like the times where you are not constanly measuring
Heck of a smallie sesh
Great strike footage too. Quality vid. Cheers
Lures are made to catch fishermen 😊
You should make your own and market it.
Agree.... if you swear that a golf club will catch fish i'll buy 2....
I end up buying 3 of everything one black and white for the fish and something pretty for me dam@@gewglesux
I'd like to see you weight a few of the larger, small mouths.
Thanks for another great video!
just got back fishing, didn't catch nothing but saw tons of carp. thanks for the awesome video!!
What a killer smallie for the last fish 💪
“Catch ya later Bud!” Hahaha little do those fish know…
Man what a blowup on that first fish
Very exciting! Thank you for sharing!!
Im so ready to see u throw the scum frog launch frog.
Caught my new frog pb 2 weeks ago with a 9+lbs large mouth.
Got both of them on a white spro frog.
Had one break my 30lbs braid in the pads with my.scum frog clown edition. It was big. Im still upset about it haha.
It broke your knot not the braid ;)
@@cannabis478 nope. Broke the braid. Only about 6" left at the tip of the pole.
So about 12' of line was taken under.
Damn braid was only 2 weeks old too.
I've never had braid pop so close to the pole. Not sure if I had a spot that was roughed up for fishing the pads. No branches around that lake so all I can think is the thick pads I fish had compromised the braid.
But in the 2 weeks I had it I fished once prior to the day it broke.
I've never had an issue with this brand over the yr I've used it. So hopefully it was a random issue
I always love watching your uploads! Happy fishing !!!
Fly fishing that river would be amazing!
I gotta say I absolutely enjoy your kayak fishing videos. I wish I had smallmouth where I’m located in Arizona. But I got some pretty big largemouth in golf course ponds my biggest largemouth is about 5 1/2.
Hey brother. I was watching your other catfish videos when you were using shrimp and getting your bait stolen. You know you can buy this stuff called Atlas Mike's Magic Thread? You wrap it 3 times around the shank, wrap it all around your bait(this even works with chicken liver btw), then wrap it 3 times around the shank again, then break it off. You don't even need to tie any knots, and it helps to keep your bait from being stolen so much and gives you a better casting distance with soft bait.
You definitely catch some nice ones 🎣🫵🏻👏🏻
I've had two outings this summer, and not a fish in my belly. Then this guy... feel like he could throw out an aluminum can and pull in a personal best.
Great catch, NDY, don't mind my bitterness. I'll get mine...
I'm always impressed with what you can do with just one camera. Your right eyeball must be hard wired to video. Lol
Great work, as always. Thanks.
am I the only one that smiles all the way through these videos?
Wow! Some monsters today!
Love the top water Bite!
Wow! Ready Freddy was finer than frog hair!!
I love your videos.. soothing.. also.. the first fish scared the bajeebas out of me!...
Best fishing channel on RUclips, can’t wait for the next one. Be safe and God Bless 👏👏👏
Fabulous Trip, Many Thanks!
Incredible catches! May have to purchase a Freddy
Hey ND. In my case, the wind is my friend, but i also fish lakes and dont have a peddle drive or trolling motor so i will paddle up wind, throw a drift sock in, and go with the wind, covering as much water as i can. If you want, you can join me smashing Large Mouths on Spectacle Lake near Cambridge, MN.
Matt,you rock! ❤ Peace
Now that was a good day
Great video! Its been an exceptionally windy year in central wa. Not ideal kayak conditions for sure! 👍
Finally this week we’re getting several days of good kayaking weather! Although I’m not getting my hopes up too much it seems like the wind forecast doubles from one day to the next.
You're doing fishing better than I am. It's been tough around here in South Jersey.
Fun was had.
That’s a cool looking lure. It was working good for you.
Great video
I've said it before, I'll say it again. You should do a Fishing Guide/Outfitter business.
Damb they really wanted that frog 🐸👍🏼
You know....I was just getting ready to ask if you find more than one smallie in the same spot, specifically in the rivers? And then, you go and hook two in almost the exact same cast. Thanks for posting!!!
I’ll often find two or more smallies hanging out together. If they’re tucked up along the bank it’s usually just one but they like to school up when they roam around.
Another great video! I wish I was there!
Nice smallies today tks for sharing?
Great video, as always! You have some of the "fishiest" water I've ever seen. It's been kinda slow where I am lately. Hopefully it'll cool down a little, and the bite will be better.
I’m from Iowa and the water levels have been ridiculous! I haven’t been able to go out hardly at all this summer. Mississippi has a bunch on locks closed and we have experienced lots of flooding. No good!
They have a lot of dams and lakes they control the river level with on this system. There’s one reservoir I might have to check out this week that they use to hold water since there’s no development there. I’m sure the water is up quite a bit on that one!
You have laser point accuracy casting. I'd be in the reeds every other cast😂😂😂

Nice, overcast day.... PERFECT for casting & 'Bassing'. FMR Intelligence Officer
I live near the Niagara River, that’s one you’ll have to come by and get some fishing in, great place!!
Another awesome video well done some really nice fish
Great video bud, you were killing it out there
Great video. Also did anybody else see the bug crawl across the camera.
