Sunrise and sunset.....learned that when I was about 10yr old after talking to old-school Musky stalker....back in early 1960s. Older dude would go out in row boat in northern Wisconsin....would row lodge boat, troll drop offs. 2 poles. One pole with live sucker and second pole he casted hand tied bucktail.....every year, would take 2 week vacation....stalk and catch very big Musky.....30 to 40lb class....during day would sit on cabin porch...read or enjoy a pipe....have a spiked lemonade...old-school fishing pro.....I would run to lodge dock when he would row in to boat dock ...amazed by his catches...in two weeks he would catch and release many fish....only keeping one....later, as I developed some skills, I found it is possible to catch fish in the day, ya’ gotta know structure....night fishing , too....
No loud music, no crazy video title in capital letters, no yelling and screaming, just good ol' bass fishing at its finest. Best thing to go with morning coffee.
It’s refreshing to find a channel like this. It seems impossible to find a fishing channel nowadays that is actually focused on fishing rather than clickbait. I also love the fact that you don’t scream and overreact to every fish you catch, your channel is so real and I truly appreciate it.
I stumbled across your channel several months ago .... since then you have entertained me for months .....you are the man ! I enjoy fishing and watching you fish ....looks to me that you've got some prime fishing in your area ! keep the videos coming !
Love the content . Easy way about you . The way you net and release are methodical. My adrenaline would be through the roof . You just take it all in . Thanks for the great work .
Ì had to watch the video twice, fell asleep on the first run due to the peace and quiet of the astounding site, best fishing youtuber I have ever seen, thank you sir for the quality and content, just subscribed.
I cannot tell you how much I not only enjoy your channel but appreciate the information you share. My equipment has improved from what I've learned off of these videos. Keep doing what you do brother🇺🇸
Besides all the fish that you catch the popularity of your videos is because you don't put in stupid music! The sound of the paddle stroking the water the birds in the background and your reel screaming is what makes it mesmerizing
seeing this is making me sad that I slept in this morning.. this morning would have been a great morning to be out there... too bad I was sleeping tomorrow I will not make the same mistake! Thanks for the inspiration
Easily my favorite RUclips fishing channel to watch. So easy to forget all the stress in the world while watching you land a bunch of beautiful fish on such a gorgeous lake.
What a morning in the Midwest! Those fish had great acrobatics this day! Classic! It looked like you were throwing a top water bait in the middle of the lake but you explained the structure underneath. Wondered why there weren’t 100 other boats out on a morning like that. Great stuff!
Matt, Another gem. I covet that top water bite. Only 2 fish caught on top water so far this year. In my local river the grass is mature and starting to break up so I think this should be ideal top water conditions. Bank fishing this year exclusively so I can not get too far outside the grass line. Caught a nice smallie the other night on top of the water on a weightless worm as soon as it hit the water. I want to catch a fish on a Spook and Pop’r. I miss that action. The fish will only bite the weightless plastic worm this year. We have to listen to what the fish want. I will keep trying the top water anyway.
I grew up watching the Lindners, way back before internet and cell phones when TV fishing shows and In Fisherman magazine were the best sources for fishing knowledge.
Love this channel so much, such great content, every video is such great quality and the places you fish are beautiful. Your voice is also so calm and peaceful it’s great
Awesome vid, enjoyed it. I give you credit for bravery with those treble hook baits in a kayak. I have gone single hook baits after a close call in my kayak with a Whopper Plopper flying back at me from a thrashing Smallmouth.
You have hands down the best fishing channel out there! I gotta say though, you worry me every time I see you stick your hands in the mouth of a fish with treble hooks and the fish begins to shake!!! You are an animal dude!
Your content is top tier bro.. If RUclips had a classification setting I'd place your content upper echelon. Where most seem to be decent production and average content I know that your content will be grade A with excellent production, editing and content, not to mention the usual gorgeous scenery as well.. Thank you for showing the average RUclips how to do it.
Man, i tell ya what "if the Smalls were 10-lds + they would be almost impossible to land LOL" Their a battle to ta death kind of fish no doubt. Enjoyed the video my friend, Thanks for sharing
I feel these videos, like bob ross paintings, sets an unrealistic expectation of one's abilities. This guy just crushes bass in every video, using all different techniques... I buy the same paintbrushes (tackle), head out and try to replicate... but end up with a 3 years old paint by numbers like fishing experience.
Entertaining as always, sir! Dedicated ANGLEr Using your TECHNOlogy to great effect. Create angles for the GOPRO that I haven't seen anywhere else. You're like an ANGLO-TECHNO-GOPRO-fessional. Keep up the good work!
There’s something about getting up early and fishing with the sunrise.
I don't mean to be rude but your videos and become the same and I haven't finished a video in 8 months

This channel calms me while simultaneously creating an excitement to go fishing that nothing else does. Amazing video as always.
I’ve always felt the same watching his videos. So relaxing, yet getting me excited to get on the water.
Well said! Best fishing content on RUclips...
I came here to the comment section to say the same thing.
This says exactly how I feel perfectly
Same

Agreed

If you have them around you should make a bowfin video
Bob Ross strikes again.
I stumbled across your channel several months ago .... since then you have entertained me for months .....you are the man ! I enjoy fishing and watching you fish ....looks to me that you've got some prime fishing in your area ! keep the videos coming !
So much fun watching those small mouths tail dancing after the hook set. Wish I was there, instead of being locked down in a wheel chair.
Hope you're doing alright man.
Hope your doing good man
This channel helps me Matt. Helps me calm down after a long day, or to just clear my mind. It's so therapeutic.
Dude. You have the best fishing channel. Even your radio voice, I’m sure everyone can agree, never gets old.
My favorite time to go fishin! No crowds, no wind, just peace and quiet and a few good bass.
Your fishing is absolutely remarkable.
God must specifically make sure your fishing is unmatched.
Love the content . Easy way about you . The way you net and release are methodical. My adrenaline would be through the roof . You just take it all in . Thanks for the great work .

What a peaceful morning to catch some beautiful fish! That’s the dream right there. Awesome video, man.
Best fishing channel on RUclips. So satisfying to watch you fish!
I cannot tell you how much I not only enjoy your channel but appreciate the information you share. My equipment has improved from what I've learned off of these videos. Keep doing what you do brother🇺🇸
Your voice is pretty calming. Lol thank you. I miss fishing. I just had 6 poles given to me. I need to get out there and relax on a lake.
Keep the videos coming. This is one of my go to channel that keeps me entertained and motivated to get some fishing done!
Always a pleasure to see you sir. Thank!
I always wanted to fish in the calmest lakes, I just imagine to birds chirping, calming waters, windy and the beautiful sunset.
I find myself looking at kayaks on websites now. You make it look so peaceful and enjoyable. Keep up the great vids
I like the way you turn the fish away from you when you release. I love the way you grab the tail of the pike after turning them away. 🐡🐠🐟
Bought my first Kayak thanks to your content sir! Keep it up!

I caught 7 bass before 9 am this morning. I was so happy I got out there. Don’t worry, tomorrow you’ll have 8 by 9 lol
Easily my favorite RUclips fishing channel to watch. So easy to forget all the stress in the world while watching you land a bunch of beautiful fish on such a gorgeous lake.
You sir, are living the dream.

The Bob Ross of yak fishing. 😎
Beautiful video!! Love that sunrise and how calm the water is. Nothing like topwater fishing in the early early morning!!
Love this channel, and I love the way you release the fish lol, perfect
Many Thanks for your incredible videos. Your videos are not a perfect substitute for being out in my boat, but they help when honey-dos win the day.

Tons of jumpy fishies. Great Video! 10:50 I caught one that size at my little place last week!
I thought I was a pretty good fisherman, but after watching your channel, I’m subpar…great stuff
Love the respect you have for the fish
You're like the Bob Ross of fishing
Best fishing content I have found on the Tube. Thanks!!!
Man them fish hitting that lure soon as it hits the water. Love largemouth bass. Top water is my favorite way to fish also. So that too. Haha.
His casts are FLAWLESS!
Before I clicked I was like I hope he's fishing the spook... Yes! The way you fish that thing is perfect.
Nice catches! Love to see em fly out of the water! Thanks! Jonesy
Superb video. Thanks for the Largie love. Great 2 way action every catch!
Just the sounds alone from your videos make me want to go out kayak fishing lmao. Looked like a nice day to catch some beauties!
Great stuff! Your execution and catches reminds me of Al Lindner. Haven't thought of that in 20 years! Cheers!
I grew up watching the Lindners, way back before internet and cell phones when TV fishing shows and In Fisherman magazine were the best sources for fishing knowledge.
That was Awesome. Morning sunrise great fishing. Keep Fishing.
The first catch was so soothing
Beautiful views and amazing catches. Great video as always! Thanks!
Been fishing topwater with Super Spook Jr,having a blast! Tight lines!
Love this channel so much, such great content, every video is such great quality and the places you fish are beautiful. Your voice is also so calm and peaceful it’s great
At 4:22 that is a beautiful looking fish
How on earth do two ppl give this a thumbs down??? One of my favorite channels.
Nice clean lake. Good video as usual. Thank you.
No better way to start the day off, gotta love the top topwater ... great vid as always 👍👍👍👍
Awesome vid, enjoyed it. I give you credit for bravery with those treble hook baits in a kayak. I have gone single hook baits after a close call in my kayak with a Whopper Plopper flying back at me from a thrashing Smallmouth.
Another fantastic day of fishing
Great video!! Awesome content as always!!! 👌

Enjoyed the video my friend, Thanks for sharing
Videos are always relaxing, I'm ready to take a Nap lol! 👍🏻😎🎣
Watching this is like fishing with Bob Ross 🤣👏
Fun to watch as usual.

Great to see someone using the ZaraSpook.
Perfect POV documentary
Entertaining as always, sir!
Dedicated ANGLEr
Using your TECHNOlogy to great effect.
Create angles for the GOPRO that I haven't seen anywhere else.
You're like an ANGLO-TECHNO-GOPRO-fessional. Keep up the good work!
Nice catch buddy😎🎣👍🏼👍🏼
Tight lines!
Love top water for Bass!!
Love top water , nothing is more exciting. You ever use swim Senkos? I've caught some hog smallmouth on the green color.

Amazing as always!!
If I had a small mouth for everytime someone called Matt Nelson the Bob Ross of fishing... I'd be Matt Nelson.
