I don’t like outdoor boys. Something about him is creepy. Other than commercializing/monetizing children, I mean. I’ve been tuning in from time to time since he strictly did carp videos though
@aneedmorehead9006 he is a dad showing the amazing adventures his family has. That allowed him to quit being a lawyer and do amazing things many only dream about with the family. He's living the dream.. watched since catfish and carp too
You have encouraged me and my son to get off the bank we just got our kayaks I got an old town sportsman 120 and I got him a pelican covert 120 love watching you videos
and you’re reading comments and making judgements when you should be admiring those tasty casts…. And so should I. Happy Saturday. Keep those lines tight
I reckon that you could make a lure out of a pencil, a crow's feather, and a mixture of copper and lead wire and still catch Smallies and large mouth bass.
Agreed. Lol. My buddy once caught bass on a defunct calculator watch with a treble hook tied to it. To be fair, it probably just looked like a giant leech to the bass, but he did catch a few. Lol
@@markstott6689 pretty much 🤣. One of the lakes I fish has at least one tournament a week from February-November and many are 60-150 boats. It’s a big lake but with that and your everyday fisherman it gets pressured.
Same. Bill Dance, Hank Parker, Rolland Martin and the Fishin Hole...then In Fisherman and Midwest Outdoors....I'm so glad there's quality like the NDYak on RUclips. Thanks for the trip down memory lane
Watching this channel made me really want a kayak. And so I started shopping for kayaks. Im entry level so naturally for me I wanted the best budget kayak... This led me to lifetime, pelican, walmart, tractor supply. I had a really fun time shopping for the kayak. In the end, I went with a pelican rally 100xp from Walmart. Not the best choice, but a cheap entry level boat that is capable of holding 300 pounds was the best I could do. Nevermind the fact that I am actually 312 pounds, but let's solve one problem at a time. Ok, now I needed to figure out how I was going to transport this kayak using my ford ecosport, I actually thought the pre installed rails would save me time and effort in the end. They did not, instead I am now finding it near impossible to get a roof rack. I first tried amazon, undeliverable. Tried tractor supply, walmart, harbor freight, they all have universal racks meant for round rails lifted up from the roof of the vehicle. My vehicle had them molded in. I will not be deterred. I will one day be getting my roof racks, I don't care if I have to whittle them out of wood and bolt them in. Im gonna get it done. Then I will get to look for kayaks, by that time it will probably be mid winter and i can score a pretty good deal on a sit on top fishing kayak, maybe even get a hobbie on the cheap. Then.... I can finally fish. After I learn how to kayak.
You can catch fish with anything. Literally. It's all about the action(how it moves) and sometimes the color(depends on time of the year). Another banger video, as usual!
I love your videos. I started watching a few weeks ago, and they have inspired me to start fishing again after a 15-year break.I stopped going after my dad passed away.But now I'm shopping for a kayak and want to get my son involved too.
Thank you, Matt, I really needed this video today! I had a hectic day yesterday that carried into today and when I could finally get a few minutes to sit back and relax, I had the enormous pleasure of joining you on a beautiful, peaceful river bagging some nice smallies on top water, it just made my day!
Hey I just wanted to let you know that your the reason why I started to fish my parents do get why I love it I said it’s relaxing and if I dont feel like doing anything just close my eyes and have fun love your videos and keep up the good work watched almost every single one of your videos
Back in 1992 when the cicadas were in western Pa and eastern Ohio, I used live cicadas at ponds and the river to catch big largemouth and smallmouth bass. I also caught numerous bluegills with them.
The best thing about you and your channel, Matt, are the comments on your videos. Almost everyone wants to know where to get the lures you throw, where you’re fishing, what your reel/line/knot is. What you prove every time is you know how to read the water and you understand bass behavior. Everyone wants the result, but most don’t know the details and won’t put in the work.
There’s lots of time spent on the water that doesn’t end up on video. Paddling a mile or two to the spot, trying to figure out the fish, and hitting new spots that aren’t always productive. It can be a lot of work but it’s all worth it when you have an awesome day of fishing or find a new lake with some big ones!
Ya never cease to amaze. When I see similar lures at the tackle shop I always get a chuckle, thinking. "who would waste cash on those ugly lures?" Like I said, you never cease to amaze.
Those Bass definitely hang out near the edge where the odds of getting lunch are greater. Bit like ocean fish where 90% are within 40 miles of the coast... but on a smaller scale.
Matt, I really enjoy your videos. I think some of my favorite parts are when you miss one with a topwater and come back and pick it up on a jig. It's a joy watching you cast and work your lures.
This channel is the human equivalent of catnip to us fellow anglers! Therapeutic and educational, unmissable. Best wishes from a bungling fisherman in the UK.
I totally agree with your two treble hook lures, often removing the belly hook and frankly don't know if it makes much difference in hook-ups but it surely helps reduce hook to line entanglements.
In honor of NDYakAngler, I started off my morning on the yak today with "Howdy Largemouth Bass" They weren't too nice today, BUT did catch a BIG striper today on the Bass Pro Shop Swerve glidebait....this bait's action is quite amazing for the price...I highly recommend these glidebaits....I'll be buying more.....20 lb. Bass Pro Excel mono is very underrated line, I might add..I'm ready for fall & had enough of this heat
We love your channel. My husband and I watch religiously. Love every minute. We are kayak fishers from far NE Minnesoata; where the bass bite is far and few between. Some people are jealous of our trout fishing....but we spend each week drooling over your top water bites!!!! Thanks for sharing your trips and skills
Just bought myself a foldable kayak from tucktec and I can not wait to get out on the water for the first time in yeeeaarrss. A lot of people are doubting my origami kayak but I have good faith in it, wish me luck!
Definitely a quirky lure and glad you saved the rest of us from wasting money on it. You toughed out the headaches and made a day of it. I'll stick to the plastic lip cicadas and custom painted cicada blanks I can finish myself. I only like the double hook as a trailer on the 1/4 ounce old Hula Popper lure. Blessings Matt
Hey Matt, I’ve been a viewer of your channel for a while and would love to see a full compilation of all of the best NDyakangler topwater strikes and blowups. Or you could count down your favorites in a ranking.
On the drag and pause, it sounds (to me lol) similar to a Heddon "Dying Flutter". Same tangling issue with casting those too, but the bass sure love em.
Hi @NDYak, I'd suggest trying to the other Cicada lure by Megabass. It's more a walking bait, and I've had much better success on it. Awesome video as always.
Another great vid! I usually watch these vids on Sundays because I'm out on the Yak fishin it up myself on Saturdays 😅 Few questions for ya if I may, Matt: Do you ever have any gut hooks? And what's the oddest thing you've hooked/pulled out of the water?!
Fish generally won’t try to swallow hard plastic lures. I’ve had a wacky worm swallowed a couple times. I’ve never caught anything too crazy but a friend snagged a small suitcase full of adult toys once lol.
Just got kayaks with my buddy because of your videos. So far, we’ve only been shore fishing and there’s not a lot of access around us. We’re hoping the kayaks will give us a better chance at some good fish. Something tells me it’s not as effortless as you make it look to navigate a kayak and catch fish at the same time lol but I’m excited to learn
It’s mostly to keep the mosquitos, ticks, and chiggers off my legs when I’m on dry land. A lot of the spots I launch at involve walking through some tall grass.
A most entertaining video with those marvelous bites and fights. A clean and beautiful river which is pure bliss to the eyes. Remarkable the bite when you shifted to the crawdad lure (13:45). A shame that last fish that take off the double hook.
When fishing stained water I think the action of the lure becomes more important than the color. I used to have a lure that was a Joe Camel promotional giveaway for the cigarette. It was literally a lure shaped like a camel's head and and just dull brown with white eyes. But something about the way it moves the bass just love.
Matt your casting accuracy is amazing. You need to put smaller hooks on that dude. I love your approach to fishing. You are the Bob Ross to fishing. God bless you Sir.
Awesome video. Here in Australia we get a cicada hatch every summer. It gets deafening. Our bass smash them. Jackall micro pompadour in black/purple for the win. 😊
I hear them in MN where I was filming this, and in Fargo ND where I live. They don’t come out here until later in the year though usually August is when I hear them.
I have a 7 day camping trip starting here in a few days and I have so many new lures to throw off my yak!! This just gets me so much more pumped!! SD here!!
Great vid! I spent my summer in NE Iowa and with all the rain things were flooded or high water levels. I still managed to make some videos, but I had to adapt to water levels. Have a great rest of the summer!
I love your videos small mouth aren't really where I'm at in large numbers so I have only caught 1 my whole life and we always go to Georgia for vacations just so I can try 😂 but shoot I love the way that little bait looks I'd use it never seen one like that
Been using the Duo Realis Shinmushi Cicada Bug for years. Bit more realistic and proportional, but cool to see you work something similar. Living the dream my friend!
I fished a Savage Gear Cicada earlier this year, similar lure I think. I haven’t uploaded the video yet but I liked that little lure and caught a few nice smallies with it.
@ndyakangler Look forward to any all of of your future uploads! When all else fails, I swear by Rapala Xrap prop baits. I have a box full of them. Keep em coming!
You have to be hitting every estate sale, going out of business sale, and garage sale in a 2,000-mile radius. To find those lures, some of them I owned in my youth.
Heck yeah! Way to get them on the kayak Matt. When’s your next adventure with Jared? Maybe a friendly 5 biggest fish, loser has to do something light (like pushups, eating a spoon of mayonnaise or something like that lol)
Iv been watching you for a while now and I can remember if you ever thrown a buzzbait. If not give it a try. Would love to see it on that magical lake with the Lilly pads
man those fish are playing left field on those. soon as it hits the water BAM! gotta ask as well how come you tie the knot you do? (definitely not a criticism) it clearly works well for you, you are efficient at it and it can hold big toothy critters. I tie a palomar knot myself with similar success i feel just seems easier to me. but ive never tied your knot so i was curious if there was an advantage im missing out on
I used a palomar knot for quite a while myself. Have used "Matt's" knot on and off for many years as well. Still do again now. For me, the palomar knot leaves the tag end pointing at you, which i thought caused it to catch more gunk on the retreive. The one Matt uses(and myself), has the tag end pointing away from you. Catches less gunk, easier to tie, and wastes less line as you've seen here. Just my observations. Might work for you as well??
I’ve tied the Trilene knot since I was a kid so I can do it without even looking. I also lose less line to the tag end with a Trilene compared to a Palomar, especially with bigger lures I have to make a bigger loop to go around.
Rather than the nickname that everyone has been calling you for as long as ive been subscribed, I'm going to call you "Crazy Lures." But, i guess they're not so crazy if they work! It's always a question of "what's he gonna have this week?" 😆
Outdoor Boys channel and NDYakAngler are equivalent to cartoons on Saturday for adults! Tight lines
Outdoor Boys blew up like crazy! I subbed when they were at about a million, they’re up at 9.5m now! Deserves every sub
I would like to add marling baits to that list
He makes some pretty good stuff👌
Absolutely! Watch these two every Saturday with pops!

@@Kltpzyxm17 yes. To each their own, but for many just a few hours of trying to hook up takes the weight of all of crazy and puts it aside.
This could not have been said any better
I gotta get out on the lake this weekend
Is it just me or is it getting crazier out there?
@@AsgarnianAle not you at all sir
Thing I like about your videos is there is peaceful, beautiful scenery, and indispersed with psychotic fish moments

That’s awesome! We had a paddle boat when I was a kid but I would have had a blast with a kayak!
Lure placement is 95% of success and you have that down Matt as always nice work great video keep casting!!
You couldn't have watched the video in 5 minutes!
and you’re reading comments and making judgements when you should be admiring those tasty casts…. And so should I. Happy Saturday. Keep those lines tight

Yeah, it works.

Nothing like a Ndyakangler video to get the morning started off right!
Glad to see my Saturday morning fishing show is uploaded. We don't have Bill Dance and we don't have Jimmy Martin but we got the Yak Angler.
I love the yak, but miss the OGs!
Same. Bill Dance, Hank Parker, Rolland Martin and the Fishin Hole...then In Fisherman and Midwest Outdoors....I'm so glad there's quality like the NDYak on RUclips. Thanks for the trip down memory lane
Matt can catch fish with an old cigar butt. Great job!
If there's one thing I've learned watching your videos it's that you can catch fish on pretty much anything.
In those loaded waters, yeah, just about anything is going to work, right?

for lures that can get wrapped in the braid easily i usually just use a fluoro leader, even for topwater
That would have probably helped but those double hooks getting caught on the wings was what seemed to happen the most.

Awesome as always, yeah I was thinkin what is he doin with that alien lookin Cicada but ya made it work just fine!!!
If you ever feel doubtful about a bait, just know Marling baits caught bass on a plank of wood
It would be fun to see a supercut video of you fishing at specific locations from your youtube history.
Are there cicadas out in North Dakota? I'm from there but don't ever remember hearing them growing up. Great video as always
I hear them in MN where I was filming this, and in Fargo ND where I live. They don’t come out here until later in the year though usually August is when I hear them.
@@ndyakangler I'll be damned. I don't recall ever hearing them in Grand Forks. They are deafening down here in Sioux Falls
I painted a few of those a year ago and they did well on a straight retrieve for running water
I have a 7 day camping trip starting here in a few days and I have so many new lures to throw off my yak!! This just gets me so much more pumped!! SD here!!
I’d definitely change out those hooks if you keep using it. Way too big for how small the lure is IMO.
Great vid! I spent my summer in NE Iowa and with all the rain things were flooded or high water levels. I still managed to make some videos, but I had to adapt to water levels. Have a great rest of the summer!

Thanks again for a great video, Matt - I was gonna suggest removing one of those hooks. That's what I do with some of those little piles of hardware.
Another great vid! I love the precision of your casting!
Love Saturday mornings. ❤
Wonder if ya switch the hooks to some reg treble hooks would help.
That first catch, the lure didn’t even get a chance to touch the water
One of the few Megabass lures that could use a redesign
Love your vids keep it up
