I started topwater fishing on my local river 5 years ago because of your videos and information. Kayak fishing has changed my life nowadays. I have all my friends hooked and the muskies and smallmouth are plentiful on my stretch. Truly something special I’ve gained from this. Life long memories made with my friends too

"I still can't get over how wholesome these videos are." 100% agree-videos like this with content like which was *once* considered "normal" [whatever that means today], are becoming more scarce. Sadly, people overall seem less genuine-it's all about the $$$/ads etc vs simply doing what you enjoy doing. The comments sections are a beast all their own regardless of the video topic-from metal detectors to watch/shoe repair [lol], they often reflect the opposite of "wholesome." But what do ya expect from people/nations that want nothing to do with biblical truth because it's an inconvenience to their lifestyles?

Hey, Matt. We're right in the middle of a significant spring snowstorm here in Maine, so the chance to watch you fishing the river last summer-with green vegetation around you-was even more enjoyable than usual. I also really appreciate your describing in detail the differences between the original River-to-Sea Whopper Plopper and the many "clones" on the market. Now I know better than to be tempted by the more reasonable prices of the other variants. Hope that REAL spring reaches us both very soon. Best, Chris

Thanks for the beautiful summer video during our snowy winter. That odd colored bass looked blue to me.

My dad fished bass in western Wisconsin and he called smallies 'black bass.' A great fish in great videos.

I don’t know but I’m gonna give the slow jerks a little more of a try, especially in tiny area where there isn’t much room to feel it of cast it.
@ndyakangler8 ай бұрын
It all depends on what kind of mood the fish are in. On rivers I usually know exactly where the fish are hiding so I pop my lure more to keep it close to those structure spots longer. On open water I’ll steady retrieve it more. The more water I cover the more active fish I’ll get my lure in front of.

I can commiserate with you after watching 3 out of the first 4 fish you hung shake the lure. Although I have had wonderful experiences with this lure, this video has reminded me of how many fish I have hung only to have them shake the lure during the fight. Interestingly, most of them have shaken the lure while on a taut line after 10-20 turns of the reel (without jumping) after what I thought was a good hook set. I have learned that waiting a few seconds after the initial attack on the lure (longer than I would wait on a frog) helps with the hook-set, but not always.

Your settings and locations are not just thriving with worthy fish but theyre loaded with beautiful nature, moving water, dancing water plants and trees and most exciting, the explosive action provided by plump, healthy, energetic fish. It seems your videos inspire me to get up and get out to throw some lines. These "Whopper Ploppers" really do trigger some insane action by a variety of fish. I absolutely plan to add a few to my kit. I have always been a fan of top water fishing. My go to has been the Jitterbug or on the occasion, a home made rig. However, after watching all this explosive action, the Whopper Plopper will absolutely find its way into my box.

We were fishing sinking Rapalas and all of us we're missing seemingly every strike. Finally we figured out that as the fish were hitting.. they were swimming toward us rapidly, right after the hit - as opposed to hitting and turning away (which as you know often results in a self hook) Anyway.. we started sweeping the lure towards us as we continued to reel and finally started to hook fish. Had never experienced that b4 or since.. not sure what was happening but thought I'd share.

I love those long summer days! Lots of time to explore the river or hit multiple spots throughout the day!

I have used that same whopper plopper too. And I caught 3 bass from the bank in one hour. It is really good I recommend it

Wow; what an action packed afternoon and subsequent great video. In fact I believe Bob Ross took a temporary break at times [8:29 to 8:50] and left things to his twin brother "Billy" who got a little more excited-I don't blame him! Good stuff "Bob/Billy." 😂 God bless.
