ND YakAngler is the best youtuber because I've literally never heard him say "Subscribe now, punch the thumbs-up button" He is so chill and is great at what he does
Jon b never says that either
@@dogdogjrclay I'm subscribed to him as well :)
Whistlindiesel says that as well
His videos are getting more click baity but I can’t blame him. Still my favorite angler on RUclips
@@bryce8174 dude whistlindiesel is the best
Love how he treats the fish with respect and is so gentle with their release.
If you take care of the fish, they'll take care of your catch rate
31 minute NDYak angler vid?!?! Best Friday gift ever!
No cap
Yes sir
I was almost late to work because i wasn't going to stop the video
Well said
@G Scott I love lockdown wish it would come back this summer, it kept a low number of people on water I fish 😆
This NEEDS to be a television series. It’s way better than anything currently on TV.
He’s the best Angler on RUclips
This is the most underrated fishing channel ever, he deserves more subs
Hands down, the best videography for a YT angling channel.
sooooo true! he should have 100000 decillion subs also 1 decillion has 33 zeros
Nick from 618 fishing is pretty damn slick too. Love both these guys
@@ridgecasteel7582 he isn’t as chill though
I don’t think people realize how hard it is to catch that many 20+ inch smallies off beds, AND record every aspect. Good job 👍🏻
I would be happy with one of them a year
LoL
I’m in Canada we catch every cast that’s why it’s illegal to catch bass til June 30th
I don't know which is more impressive: the fishing or the editing??? Great job...again!
Also the rigging: A neko rigged floating/durable type soft plastic craw that stands up, simply awesome! What's not awesome? Now I have to order those #%&!%! craws even though I got about 50 packages of 8 or 10 other brands! L to the O to the L on that.
I’d say keeping the catches in the frame of the underwater gopro , that was crazy to me that they picked it up immediately
@@joestrummer9507 i used to do this with a construction earplug in a hollow craw the zman ones are small i like a bigger profile craw
The marksman ship on the casts is amazing!
Hands down, easily the best smallmouth fishing videos on RUclips!! Love the sound of rippling water off the paddle and all the other sounds of nature in Matt's videos. Don't change a thing Matt, you've got a winning format on your hands. Looking forward to some Strike King black Bitsy Bug Jig fishing along grassy, undercut banks.
This guy is fishing ASMR lol
NDYak makes the best smallmouth videos and he’s respectful to the fish and calm while fishing
Your the most satisfying and fun person to watch fish
@@brooks5393 you're... apostrophe ' 😂
@@brooks5393 Where's yours smart arse😂I mean c'mon really? Point out spelling on a fishing video? Grow up!
@@6412mars you did the same thing
@@AttritionAngling as a friggin poke at the AH who had to point out the mistake...wtf is wrong with you people😂
@@brooks5393 *You’re
Love that you broke down your bait and showed how you rigged it. Love the new video style!
The whole concept of setting up the underwater cam and then using your crack shot casting skills to perfectly deposit a lure adds an entirely new dimension to your channel my friend. Well done!
That's some incredible underwater footage
I always appreciate that you don't really horse the fish you catch
Makes for better videos
@@alabamaoutdoors4468 more fun too
It’s the kayak fisherman with a “voice” that belongs on the radio. Great vids. Keep them coming. Thanks.
All the guys are jealous of me. Sitting in bleachers waiting for graduation. Watching you. 👍👍
I'm from Denmark and we don't even have smallmouth nor any rivers to fish in, yet I watch your videos with great enthusiasm, simply for your therapeutic effect. :) Keeep up being calm and awesome!
This was my first year doing a fair amount of bed fishing, and that was my experience as well. They'd just swim right back onto their beds after release, so as long as you minimize the amount of time you keep them out of the water the impact is pretty minimal. The only real issue I have with bed fishing is when tournaments roll through and they livewell the fish.
You mean the opposite of what all the tournament guys do?
@@mlyniecm the BASS Masters still puts them in a live-well and release them later
@@nathanmcconnell5893 yeah it’s all for money. They could care less about conservation
You cant keep smallmouth during the spawn up here. Tournament or not. They are also protected on this river. Matt knows this. Notice he never keeps them?
@@crowhopp1203 I wasn’t talking about him. Was just stating generalities
Great underwater footage. The bail click, the cast, then the strike in audio and video. NICE
I concur. The subtle editing adds a lot to your videos. Cheers 🥂
Literally play his videos on repeat. Skill and not to mention, that voice 👌🏻
Matt, your videos are helping me get through a rough patch. For that my friend I thank you .
Same here.
@@jameshash1879 psh! Unreal
Have you ever considered Jesus Christ? Not "religion/good works" but the
joy, hope, and security comes from knowing you are right with God?
Nailed It ~ I don't bed fish but I like watching you do it.
Aj, you should it would make your channel even better! I really like your videos
By far the best fisherman Ive ever watched......A true professional, Most talented.... So laid back hes always in control catching fish of all kinds...I love watching this guy. Im learning so much from Matt
Bruh I’m from Deep South Texas (literally 10 miles from the Mexican border) absolutely no smallmouth in my area and I still love these videos lol
You've got Gauds though... Guadalupe Bass is twice the fight of a small mouth. Grew up catching them
@@waydebaker33 Twice the fight of a Smallie? Wow, I flyfish for Smallies, and man they fight hard. I may have to give them a try! Thanks!
@@K3Flyguy as a true Texan, I'm drawn to tell a tall tale.. but they are a good time. Beautiful to look at as well. You should definitely give em a cast or two
Love these videos. No yelling, no obnoxious music, just quality fishing. Thank you!
Man, I love when you post! Can’t wait for the largemouth frog videos!!!
I tried the frog the other day but I don’t think the fish were quite ready yet. It’s been hot out though so it should be topwater time soon!
@@ndyakangler Same here in Minnesota. I've landed only a couple and had some misses. Seems like they are hesitant biting top water lures but like you said, hot weather will turn the bite hot as well.
I went fishing today caught 1 largie not a very huge one but it was a slow day for me ,but I was very excited to see you posted a new vid 👍 thanks for your hard work and great content.
Out early yesterday morning on Cumberland down here in Kentucky with bone whopper popper and had no interest. Water about 72 degrees. Still a little early maybe? Switched to wacky rig and things woke up a bit.
I’m still waiting for some NDYak Angler swag. Your videos are always top notch without all the fluff.
I’ll take an XL t-shirt, ball cap and coffee mug. 😂
So many likes! Thank you for taking the time to explain your rig and show us how you set it up!
As always, you have great ideas for bait, and your strategy for what your fishin for is really good. It's a pleasure watching you work
" The Bob Ross of RUclips Anglers " Quality is so damn satisfying.
And I thought I was the only one who made this connection lol the Bob Ross of RUclips anglers 😁
Absolutely amazing footage. You've got this down to a science. Thanks for sharing such great work/play.
Thank you so much Matt. I rewatched it with my 9 yr old son on his first morning of summer vacation just now. His exact words watching the fish take the bait, “I just love that part”. Anyway we’re heading out for some kayak fishing in the morning. Great vid!
I can't express enough how great this footage is. Well done!
The perfect thing for a rainy Friday before a clear Saturday of kayak fishing on the lake, cheers!
Absolutely love your bed fishing videos with the GoPro, keep them coming!!!!
Really appreciating the frequency and duration of your videos these days!
Ty so much for doing the underwater GoPro, that footage is fascinating!
Great video!. This is better than any professional fishing show I've seen.
I love your videos! Nice voice, nice surrounding sound, nice visual presentation, nice fishing skills, and no loud music for bgm. Everything is perfect
Thanks. As a large mouth bass fisherman for years, I love your videos. A co-worker and myself would leave work on Friday, drive about 2 hours and fish until about 4am and then go home. For over 30 years we did this until he retired. We caught really nice fish.
Great fishing techniques combined with proper care for the species. Well done!
Interesting to see how plain the patterns look when they're on the bed, then you reel them in and they're gorgeous! Colors must come out when they get all pissy
Prob the light makes the difference
You can stick a little filter on the gopro (or any camera) so they capture color/contrast correctly underwater.
I used to have Oscar fish multi colors like albino or white with orange colors and brown with also orange and bright colors and almost dark brown/black with same patterns and when they get aggressive when they know your about to dump in a bunch of goldfish, they literally go nuts in happiness and raging, and their colors go from bland no patterns colorfully showing to bright ass colors and patterns while they are eating and excited! It is super interesting for sure and want to have a few again in an aquarium so I can record them now days
Its a defence mechanism, tht wards of larger apex predators.....
Redbreast panfish do the same....they get super bright orange the moment you pull them out the water....it's a "warning" sign to not touch, but it doesn't work lol 😆😅
I’ve noticed largemouth do the same. They change their green color and their spots get much darker. It’s cool if you can get them in quick, they change color in your hand
I really enjoyed the camera view underwater, gives a true visual of what is going on and will help the rest of us out on the water. Thanks
Watching this while sitting next to my aquariums is the most satisfying and relaxing part of my day.
Thank you for what you do. Keep it up! 🙏❤️
probably my favorite yourtubers to watch when the work is slow. keeps me going back out trying new lures and fishing.
Really appreciate all the work you put into your videos. Every one of them makes my day. Keep up the awesome work, and thanks.
Probably the smoothest fishing video I've ever seen.
I have watched your videos over over again and will continue to so because your such good fisherman and I learn from videos no matter how many times I’ve seen one I get new tidbit of info🙂
Keep them coming,I’ll always watch and learn,thank you!
One of the best examples of a rigged lure and how the rig itself works in a real underwater situation
And what the color of that lure looks like in the hand vs under the water Gives a much better understanding of how lures look and how fish react
Love this type of video I would love to see more of this on other lures as well
You've given a new meaning to the term "sight fishing"! Thanks
I bought a 10 ft pontoon and used it for the first time last week. You make paddling look so easy, mad respect for you. Great video as always.
I love the more informative videos. You really got me into bass fishing, keep up the great work!
Matt brother love the Zen work on site fishing the smallies. Patience definitely pays off. Thanks for taking us tank fishing with you again
So enjoyable to listen to and watch. Your without a doubt my most favorite show. I have learned so much from you. My catching has increased because of you. Plus I'm now a proud owner of my very own 3water fishing kayak and absolutely stoked about it. Thank you for your whole presence. Great voice great Patience with excellent tips and tricks.
Finally a video long enough for me to enjoy my full dinner to! Also love that you went in depth with this particular rig!
This video made me see the importance of hitting the spot twice. Thanks.
On Cast 1: “wtf is that?”
On Cast 2: “I recognize you from that other time!”
It looks like second times the charm. As soon as it comes back around they attack. Great video Matt.
I am happy you are uploading your vids again! I really enjoy your style thanks for sharing!
Wow! What a day. Perfect conditions for sight fishing. That footage is awesome!
You're like the Bob Ross of fishing. Which is really cool! We get to have our spirit calmed and our eyes delighted at the same time. Awesome video once again. Thanks, brother.
Hands down, the best fishing channel on RUclips. Love your vids.
That’s how you fish during the spawn: catch, look at and enjoy, and get it back in the water ASAP. Incredible underwater footage.
Another great video! What I love is almost every video…you are the only one on those lakes and rivers. You own the waterways!!!
I've been watching fishing on tv/RUclips for over 30 years and you are the best. Another great video!
I enjoy watching all your videos. Very cool. Thanks for showing them.
I appreciate your mindfulness to the ecosystems you fish man!
What an awesome day! I love how much care and respect you have for the fish, especially the ones on beds. Nicely done
I love the underwater shots man! I find that watching them teaches me how to present the bait in the water. Great job!
Why has no one ever signed you up for your own TV show? Your videos are better than anything currently on TV. This is how fishing was meant to be, not tournaments and $75K bass boats. Thank You!!!
was excited to see another video. and this one was longer. really enjoyed watching
What an outstanding video! I enjoy your videos so much and I learn something new every time. Thanks for making such a great effort to be better than all the rest.
The Bob Ross of kayak fishing.
What a wonderful little rig you've made. Seeing it in action is wonderful
I’m so glad you love fishing for smallmouth. Iv been with you for almost 2 years now and I’m glad you have never really switched to largemouth. There fun for frog fishing and the size sometimes but smallmouth are such butifule amazing fish. I can’t wait for them to start spawning, only a few more weeks and the water temp should be about right!
Smaller jawed bass are the most fun in my experience.
Love catching spotted and red eye bass.
@@clmwrx yea definitely. We don’t have those where I live just smallmouth, but I find they fight a lot harder then largies, alsi here that the largies in the south don’t fight nearly as hard as northern strain.
@@billybatts9491 yea I agree weirdly I always find that the smaller fish fight better. I live on the coast and we don’t have any good smallmouth rivers around here and trust me I have looked but the lakes around here produce some monsters. The average size is anywhere from 3.5 to 5.5 anything bigger then that and that’s huge. My friend caught a 4.9 just this past weekend
@@billybatts9491 lmao carp fight like crazy, just a different kind of fight. No head shakes but the only thing in the river that runs as hard or powerfully is a catfish or sturgeon
What a great outing with those multiple 20"+ fish
Awesome video! Really appreciate the time you put into setting up the underwater shots and how methodical you are with all the fish. No need to be ripping lips to land the big ones!
Matt I wanted to thank you for your skills and unintentional training. I went camping on a lake I've never been to and got out in a little row boat using your techniques with a Whopper Plopper and caught a few decent sized smallies yesterday. It was the best day I've had fishing in a long time. I wasn't as accurate as you but I did pretty good aiming into tight spots with my baitcaster and no major birds nests. Keep em coming.
When I got home I posted my catch to a fishing app and then I saw an ad for an inline fish strike camera. It has to be one of the coolest things I've seen in a while. I bet you could get some really good footage with. It's called GoFish Cam. Maybe you've heard of it. I'm thinking of getting one.
I found this dude EARLY on, RUclips didn't even suggest it. I was just searching for late winter/early spring river pike videos. Found one I liked and each time I went and watched it the channel had grown more and more and he kept putting out great videos. Anytime people find themselves thinking "I wish I lived there", you're killing it. Also, fishing would be the only reason to live in a state like ND.
Awesome, Matt! Every vid makes me excited for my trip in August.
This footage is unreal, and the neko craw idea is genius.
When I want to watch a show that makes me sit back in my recliner and just go "Aahh", this is the one I come to.
This is by far my favorite RUclips channel ever.
I’m glad the season is about to start so I can keep watching my favorite you tube fisherman
I’m excited to get back out! I though spring was here a few weeks ago but winter wasn’t quite ready to leave yet.
Nothing like a Ndyak vid on the last day of the workweek! Letsss goooo
Matt, you're the best!
So sick of the videos watching others sounding like a radio disc jockey while out fishing. Can not stand those! This is the best! No music, no stupid gimmicks. Just fishing and the sounds of nature as he does. Could sit and watch these all day. Thank you.
Just started doing this this year and it's a ton of fun. A little trick I picked up of they aren't interested is to tap your pole 3 times when it's on the nest and they spin right around to look at it. It triggers a bite or at least gets their attention almost every time
Awesome smallie video!
I can't believe no one else is fishing that amazing body of water right in town!
If I lived there, I'll be there all the time!
Love the sound of honkers
@@keith6308 I'd say you're strange for finding it strange that people enjoy the sounds of nature, lol. 🤷♂️
Loving your Videos! Its nice to see the action underwater while your talking too makes for some great videos with added bonus of helping me when i go fishing IRL.
Nice calming video. Love the underwater shots and the instructional video of how you rig your pole up. Keep 'em coming. 🚣♂️🎣
Very interesting set up, gonna have to give it a shot. Thanks for another awesome video! Can’t wait for it to start warming up😁
Amazing footage as always. I need to get myself on some smallies again soon!
Great new way for me to neko rig. Thanks. Super innovative.
The fish in this video all have gorgeous patterns!
So glad your back on that grind!
From someone who is always trying to make fishing videos, I have a serious respect for your craft
Watching this guy is like bob ross fishing love your videos man keep up the great work
31min video uploaded in my bday. Just so busy im watching today, thabks for the present
