I was born and raised in Chicago, but after working 12 years in the financial Industry regulating the futures and options markets at the CME/CBOT I decided to pursue my passion fishing professional tournaments and left my full time corporate job. At that point, I moved to Junction City, WI with my wife Sara and two boys Hank and Duke. I've been fishing professionally since 2011 and full-time since 2015. I've qualified for seven MLF Championships and won over a half million in tournament winnings at the professional level.

🍺Nice info Matt many will find this helpful. I religiously change out my hooks and O-ring/snap on EVERY bait I purchase. I enjoy doing it and it gives me confidence.🤠

[@donpanico7708]

Hey Matt, thanks for the info. You showed that there are so many variables to consider with this bait, that I’m just going to throw a different bait LOL!!!!

[@Fatenarr]

That’s kinda I how feel too 😅

[@MichaelBrown-um3mv]

Matt an excellent video again comparing all the differences between these lipless crankbaits + their drop rate speeds too + most definitely different retrieves change ups . Keeping up these great videos coming . Much appreciated.

[@ThumperSpinnerbaits]

Good info Matt. Never gave much thought to nose shape before. Thanks forsharing the info.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Happy to help!

[@commoncents235]

I’ve watched this video twice and it makes more sense to me now! Thanks Matt, good information 👏🎣🎣🎣

[@MattStefanFishing]

Glad to hear it!

[@ericc8790]

Master class. You are a wealth of knowledge and as a very inexperienced angler I greatly appreciate these videos.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Glad you like them!

[@cgolf100]

Great vid Matt and this was hammered home for me last year. Day 1 father in law 20ish bass 1/2 orange craw Red Eye Shad and I had a handful on other 1/2 lipless. Day 2 I got 45 bass on a 1/4 orange craw Red eye Shad and the father in law blanked on the same 1/2 version that was hot day 1. Day 3 lipless bite was gone. If you haven’t tried them, suspending lipless baits can be magic some days too.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Sounds great!

[@ryanvarner6520]

Thanks for the tips, Matt!!

[@MattStefanFishing]

You bet!

[@rvfishingyet]

Always take something away from your videos. Your lipless content is particularly helpful. Great work Matt

[@NeilGraham.I.M.F]

Always the best info

[@Scott-n5j]

Great video! Cotton Cordell lipless is a go to bait

[@romaloboda2280]

Thanks for your info.

[@joepworther2284]

Great vid, Matt!!!

[@jwm2588]

I was doing pretty good with a 1/8 oz Chatterbait. The next day I wasn't getting any hits. It was windy, so I switched to a 5/16oz Rapala lipless crankbait perch color, and I started catching them again.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Thanks for sharing!

[@chrismichaelson5668]

I like to fish a lipless a lot but want to get more into deep diving cranks. What is your opinion about using a snap on the end of your line for making switching out crank baits quick than re-tying? Something like the VMC Duolock snap. If using a snap, would you suggest removing the split rings of the crank baits or does leaving the split ring on with a snap not make a difference? Thanks for the info

[@MattStefanFishing]

i think snaps are fine to use with deep cranks

[@heinrichkellogg7563]

🍺Go back to your “ Will one of these be the winning Redcrest baits” and see my bold pick for Redcrest Dalton Read🤠.

[@SpookyRedz]

Loved it and love the trap style baits

[@caseysaunders2137]

I've had great luck with lipless cranks. Rapala makes a winner and pretty cheap versus others. I prefer the 3/4. You can cast it a mile and it burns really well too.

[@itllkeal]

Thanks Matt

[@normanwiggins1320]

Great content Matt but alot of figuring out what the fish want. And for Redcrest dang so close to the cut line. At one time only 1 score able away. Good finish though nice job

[@joewinkler2168]

Really good video, Matt, but I took all that stuff out of my boat way back in July. I went from 170 lbs of tackle down to less than 12 lbs. That old way of fishing isn't relative to my tournaments anymore.

[@arlinhackman5387]

How do you tie the lure to your line.(What kind of knot) Great video thank you

[@paulksicinski6181]

When you tie on a lip less bait, do you tie straight to your line or do you use a swivel?

[@Fatenarr]

I had to Google if Blunter was a word. It is. 😂

[@frankfarris6485]

Thank You

[@vancegordon9140]

Having fished for 60 plus years I am still amazed why a fish will run a lipless crankbait down in cold water and a lot of times you can put something right on their nose like a jig etc and they won't look at it. It is so cra cra. The same goes for crankbaits etc

[@MattStefanFishing]

I wonder the same thing haha

[@richardblake4777]

Matt, don't overlook the Cotton Cordell Super Spot. Little lighter and different rattle.

[@commoncents235]

Clear as mud 🍺🍺🍺🎣🐟🐟🐟

[@phillamoore157]

OK, so....are you changing out your hooks, and if so, what size/brand?

[@kenk395]

He's probably glad he didn't change hooks before that video (ouch) 😂

[@phillamoore157]

@@kenk395 Ha!....you got that right, brother. I'm sure ever person who watches that video is saying to themselves "I'm glad I'm not the only one that happens to!" 👍

[@MichaelSwirzewski]

Take a look at the lipless box& I just go- " that one" not random. got alot both rattle+ one knockers' big& small- and yup lots of colors& brands. I still don't get bass- I catch em'; I just don't get em' - ya know-

[@paulfix8081]

Do water temps affect fall rates very much on a lipless?

[@MattStefanFishing]

Maybe slightly but not much IMO

[@daveengstrom9250]

What is the difference if a crankbait has a lip or not?

[@MattStefanFishing]

one dives deeper and the other stays at the depth its retrieved at

[@bike4him589]

Okay I'm either going to give away my box of lipless crankbaits or put a snap on my line so I can swap them out and figure this out. Anyone use a snap like on a crankbait? Do you remove the split ring?

[@tomperry7345]

Yes I use snaps and most of the time I remove the split ring. On some crankbaits the eye is so small it’s hard to get a snap on it if you remove the split ring. In short though I don’t notice any difference in the baits performance either way.

[@billwheeler4343]

I use snaps and discard the split ring. I can’t waste that much time retying. Especially when I’m trying to figure out what they want

[@nickkoski7111]

LV is king.
