Topwater Fishing Giant Fall Smallmouth

[@franciscoacosta255]

Love it!!!! No need for exagerating covers for your videos, no annoying tech music, only the river sounds, breve experienced narration and great battles yeahhh!!!

[@babyblue8214]

yes!! that annoying "chipmunk" sounding music...

[@CountryWolf_TX]

No "hit the subscribe button" nor "check the description below". Not a hint of "follow me on..." nor "leave a comment below" followed by "tell me what you think about...". 100% organic, Grade A, home cooked good ol' fashion passion.

[@kimehunt4501]

100% agreed. This is pure fishing at it's best.

[@clappinbasscheekstv9999]

When they say "guys" a million times

[@michaelconlee3925]

Well said Francisco

[@dennisjones6943]

This is by far my favorite episode. I’ve watched this probably ten times. Nothing but giants

[@alexmac7359]

This channel deserves WAY more subscribers!!! It's not everyday you get to watch the smallmouth KING!!!

[@ctBundy]

so true! He is an excellent angler

[@XxsteamerxX]

Your rivers: Serene Your skills: Supreme Your casts: laser beams Can't say enough about your videos, knowhutimean?

[@codyl6575]

I have high hopes for this channel.

[@jakesanders6638]

I agree

[@stevetucker7230]

I agree to!!!!

[@cvaicunas69]

Your only complaint will be there are not more

[@cokeandwhiskey430]

Best fishing channel on KZbin. No fluff just fish. Good job!

[@bobthebuilder2922]

Fish hawk and this channel are really cool imo. And marling baits, orvis channel and madriveroutfitters

[@bobthebuilder2922]

Oh and fisherman's life is good too

[@ohiodronephotography3222]

This channel is literally the reason I got into fishing!

[@Nate_Cross]

Holy smokes that was an epic video! You make it look so easy. I love it when I get notified that you have posted a new video. Don't change a thing.

[@jpap967]

Matt is such a nice guy. Even though he's whispering not to scare the fish away, he loudly returns the "Good morning" haha

[@randallburgess46]

Great top water small mouth fishing ! Great to get another day in before it gets too cold. Beautiful fish 🐟 as usual. I’m grateful for your channel, it’s my favorite! ❤

[@stevetucker7230]

That scenery makes these videos all that much better. I love fishing small rivers... Awesome videos

[@MrMurder0321]

You're my hero, bro. It snowed here in Michigan and I just wanna kayak and catch smallmouth. I truly live vicariously through you right now!

[@kennybanghart2144]

Man it never gets old watching you hammer some big smallies, great job brother!

[@apexpredator40]

I’ve watched this episode several times. This is my favorite. Great job!

[@Smoot307]

I've said it before and I'll say it again. You are the Bob Ross of fishing videos! I could your watch these all day!

[@TheFisherWoman]

I’ve been watching your videos for forever. My dream is to fish this river. I could watch your videos all day long

[@kimehunt4501]

The only channel I feel obligated to like every video, the problem is like doesn't cover it. These videos keep me alive during the Northeast winters. Thanks for another great one. BTW the 21" bass, what a fish and what a fight.

[@wesleypratt221]

Started watching your videos tonight! Can’t stop! Beautiful river, amazing fishery. And on a side note making great accurate casts essential to catching big fish!!

[@labtrainer09]

There is NOTHING better than great topwater action, no matter what the waters or species. Thanks for sharing your fall day with us.

[@afriesen6]

I struggled to find a top water bass video that didn’t start with 10 minutes of nonsense and jokes and someone trying to act funny and trendy. This video is about fishing. Thank you for making a no nonsense video.. relevant to what I typed into the search bar. Thumbs up.

[@Splattertube]

Everyone has said it all, so I'll just add: I like that "Good morning." Fish on...

[@kellycarr7297]

New sub and fan. Binge watched your videos last night and this morning and I have to say that you now hold rank as my favorite and the best fishing channel bar none. Everything about your videos is extraordinary, from the scenery, the sounds of nature, the hushed tone of your narration, the way that fishing seems like it's second nature to you. My favorite thing about your fishing is the accuracy of your casts, which for me, is the most important aspect of fishing, especially when it comes to dealing with currents. Great channel and I'm looking forward to future content.

[@vodkalima]

What a great fishery you have there. Love the channel with no music, load screams, just pure fishing with nature sounds. Keep up the good work.

[@BarryP]

I just sent this to my snowboarding/fishing group text. I described it as a bedtime story from the Bob Ross of Smallies. We've had a terrible time out here in the East with flooded waterways (again and again) since May, and the fishing has been sketchy, but is picking up. I found a nice school of small Smallies prior to our sixth flood of the year a few days ago in the Upper Potomac that were loving the Zara Puppy (bone color). I lost count on 11-15" Smallies. Every single one of them, there was an instinct strike and a miss... I'd pause... twitch twitch... walk for a second... boom! It's always inspiring to see somebody doing great stuff with bass from a kayak. We will be trying to hit the Stripers hard in the coastal rivers exactly the same way that you hit these tanks. It's an annual fall tradition for us to try nothing but Spooks, Jrs or Puppies for at least a day, depending on what the fish see as food (rather than simply hit via instinct). The next couple of weeks tend to be our best chance at finding the big boys and girls up top. Thanks for the great vid, man! You have inspired and excited a small group of kayak fishers.

[@ndyakangler]

Good luck out there, you guys deserve it with the poor water conditions all year. It’s supposed to warm up here on my days off this week so I’m hoping to hook into some chunky smallmouth! Not sure if they’ll be willing to hit the spook still but I’ll at least give it a try. I’m guessing with the cold water temps and some warm sunny days they’ll be up shallow and easy picking with a wacky worm.

[@BarryP]

Thanks, man. It's still been pretty slow. The water temp is diving and the river is still very much receding from the last flood. We'd ordinarily be slamming good fish right now, but they seem to have lockjaw as the temp and clarity change on a daily basis. it's difficult to locate them. There's been one very good fish in the past few days, seen here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnyni56fga92lbc Enjoy the rest of your season!

[@elijahinky]

I just started watching your videos and they are a breath of fresh air. Most of the other channels play annoying music and too much BS filler instead of fishing. Well done. Nice smallies btw. Keep it up. Im definitely subscribing.

[@dustyhiebert5748]

Very impressive fishery.. Really enjoy your videos.. your commentary mixed with the sounds of the river and birds chirping.. oh yeah.. and your drag screamin’ 😃🔥🔥🔥🎣🎣🎣. Keep on killin it 🙏🏽

[@vicreichle2931]

Your casting accuracy with all the overhangs is just phenominal

[@clifh3419]

Man if I could pick someone, anyone to go fishing with, it'd be you !!! Smallmouth fishing is my favorite fishing! You it out here slayin these monster girls! Jeez make a man jelly why dontcha lol. Another great video!

[@glenndaugherity6187]

The mouth on that fish at 4:06 was almost like a largemouth ! Amazing fishery !

[@antonlueker9648]

You’ve got one of the best fishing channels on KZbin. I’m inspired to get out and fish more and try kayak fishing. Awesome editing too!!!

[@Gumby905]

Everytime i watch you videos i cant believe how clear that water is

[@Yowhatsupman]

Very enjoyable video. Thank you for each and every one. March 1st comes soon for trout season, so we're excited for some fly fishing here. It's nice to watch your videos in the evening, your voice is calming, and you seem like a good natured person. Love to hear more about your life if you would like to share, and what other passions and interests you may have. - your fan

[@andrewhirons8494]

I Absolutely love your Video's! Thank you for sharing Them!

[@rod708]

DUDE, you are the small mouth GURU of the Internet! I would love to spend a weekend fishing with you!

[@Fox1nDen]

on just the spook---wow! makes me want to go out and find one! great videos, you manage excitement very well, the best so far. And it is great to see what to do to keep a heavy one on. Thank you. Very enjoyable videos.

[@NormanTheNitebear]

By far the best Yak fishing channel out there!!

[@jamesbishop9771]

I love your videos in the morning with a cup of coffee. Here in Ohio, we finally had a few days of cold weather. But water still warm, still having luck on the whopper plopper. Fall is the best time to run into a fatty.

[@antoniomora1255]

A gorgeous fall overcast day, the clarity of the water, those powerful smallies…one of those unforgettable fall days that one recalls in the winter months while looking forward to the next spring. Over here in Spain we don’t have smallies, but fall is my favourite time for fishing: largemouth attack fiercely all kind of lures and the light and colours of autumn are awesome, and with a perfect temperature too.

[@tbranch227]

First video that I have watched of yours and I love your Kayak rig already!!

[@thomasandrews7783]

Bank fishing the "Spook" here in Rockford Illinois on the Kishwaukee River for the first time and they have been hammering it! Glad I saw this video, thanks !

[@ndyakangler]

That’s awesome! It’s such a fun way to catch them too!

[@mikesbent1295]

Once again one of the best videos ever!

[@Mr76K1976]

Best fishing channel on youtube!! Guy gets right to it!!

[@sadday101]

That was a great “stringer” of bass! Love your videos, thanks.

[@dangerrrnick5005]

Such a great video. Find myself going back through your videos in the dead of winter. -30 windchill today in NW Ohio. Tying flies and waiting for the smalljaw bite.

[@fishingrelaunched4864]

Love fishing for smallies! As usual, nice work! Truly inspiring.

[@nic85marty]

Found a new channel to be excited about. Love smallie river fishing.

[@joshuaflores3647]

This was an excellent video, all around. Brilliant fishing, filmed and edited extremely well. Congratulations!

[@mattcardwell1506]

Man...another great video. You are putting out some quality stuff. I look forward to getting the notification for a new video. Unfortunately here in Carolina we are still dealing with rain and muddy streams. Significant rain from two hurricanes now. We have had a very wet year with very few weeks with conditions right for fishing or kayaking. Remember all those who have lost so much in the coastal Carolinas, Virginia, Florida, and Georgia. Its been a bad hurricane season.

[@FitzYakin]

Awesome smallmouth action. Some beautiful fish caught on a beautiful stretch of water.

[@michaelburke5907]

Best fishing vids I've ever seen. Well done, informative, entertaining. Ya, you betcha...

[@andrewfincham2133]

I’ve caught dozens over 20 in the western side of Virginia. I sincerely appreciate your chops as a waterman

[@UncleVothski]

Really enjoy this channel because you're the antithesis of other Adderall/Monster Energy fueled guys who are really popular out here. Definitely more my style. Keep up the good work

[@WhiteDevil-iw1uk]

No kidding tired of tweaker channels. Shut up and fish haha

[@NeilGraham.I.M.F]

What a great day on the river! Love Smallmouth fishing, and there's nothing better than tap water

[@mrGolfer1969]

Love your channel-great topwater action!

[@jc_autob0t520]

New To the channel, been binge watching all of the videos basically. Super chill stuff!

[@HaightsWanderings]

Love that clear water fishing. So cool. Nearly 22 inch bass. That is crazy nice. I caught 350 smallies this year and never broke the 20.5 mark. I've been trying for years to hit 21.

[@frankleaney6267]

You need to fish the st Laurence river. Worlds biggest smallmouth there. Six, seven pounders all day.

[@mrfreedom9222]

Is that fishable by kayak?

[@logansanders6717]

Just caught my PB smallmouth 4lbs 4oz today on Independence Day! Love your channel and everything you do!

[@ndyakangler]

Thanks and congrats on the new PB!

[@Coltreezy]

I love these clear water videos

[@paulfitzpatrick9231]

Watched all your sessions ,compulsive viewing!!Regards my friend from the U.K.

[@sheilawest9757]

Thank you again for super fishing trip.

[@8joelyk]

Love your videos dude! I watch them all year round especially in the winter here in Wisconsin just counting down the days till May!

[@sithslayer12]

I swear this guy puts something on his lures to make these fish hit so much 🤣🤣 I love your videos man. You’re the best angler on KZbin!

[@InvisibleHand20]

Jeez those smallies were like footballs. Great video. All the rivers and creeks I usually fish here in southwest Minnesota have been flooded or too high all year. Haven’t been able to get my smallmouth fix in a while.

[@FrankTheTank15]

Another great smallie video...never fails. I was catching them last week on rage craws in 12-15ft of water and I miss the topwater bite.

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Man, you have access to some epic water. I'm envious for sure. We have flows with smallies, but nothing like what you're on. Keep the videos coming in 2019!!

[@TNRangerXP]

As always, excellent video footage with out all the fluff and stuff. Keep it up!

[@101evo]

Yet another great video. What a day you had on one bait !

[@jared7800]

“That one came with a free side of salad” 😂😂😂

[@XxsteamerxX]

THAT's what I was looking for... Too funny

[@bronzebackanglerharden3482]

Soo satisfying. Love the videos man. When ever I'm itching to fish and can't I come watch you land some hawg smallies

[@NicoleStoneOutdoors]

You are killing It on here! I LOVE your videos. I keep telling Jagged Tooth we need to get together! Pure fishing - awesome!

[@ndyakangler]

Thanks Nicole! It’s been an amazing season! We’ll have to get together and do some ice fishing this year. All my fishing luck seems to be on open water so maybe you and Jacob can show me how it’s done.

[@BASSnBEER]

Man you have the nicest little river and streams there, Love it, we have a river here with nice smallies but we have never gotten on them like you do in your videos!!!

[@reileymaiers9270]

Wow. Just Wow. Minnesota has really been cold lately. Down in Southwestern MN, We had our first frost almost 2 weeks ago, and Just last week we got the worst word in the world. SNOW. Great Video!

[@ndyakangler]

We got a good amount of snow in some parts of ND last week, way too early for that!

[@OutdoorMishaps]

Another great video man. Beautiful area, beautiful fish!

[@fishing4happiness610]

Always such awesome scenery! And badass hookups!

[@ledraps22]

wow! Great river specimens. Hope things warm back up by you

[@tracys4161]

Smallmouth bass are great gamefish. They're quite enthusiastic feeders and pound-for-pound some of the best fighters around.

[@tonycantrustnun]

that “good morning” really caught me off guard, where I’m from people don’t have kind hearts so it would’ve been a karen or a Kevin telling you to F off

[@BravoBassin]

as always you have the best small mouth bass fishing videos brother! so been out on my new kayak 2 times now fishing and love it! had a great day of fishing this past saturday on a small lake near my house caught some nice bass. I will be posting the new kayak videos in the next week or so. I will let you know so you can check them out. keep the videos coming!

[@oregonuplands8687]

Man such a beautiful area and and awesome smallmouth.

[@jasontheryan]

Stumbled across this video in my feed, cool catches! Wish we had a place around NJ like that. Been wanting to target smallmouth this year but just haven't had the opportunity yet.

[@Twangtown7]

Those are some beautiful smallies!

[@markhogquist2000]

Wow man. It really shows that you've put your time in on that body of water, and have it dialed in. Nothing better than catching fat smallies on top water. Really enjoy your videos bud. Very calming. It's almost like I'm there with you. Keep em coming brother.

[@JenkinsB]

Had to watch this again! Those are some SLAUNCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@johannsharky1372]

Very Nice fishes again.. ! The pig almost 22.. Is auwsome, i'm surprised that you can have bits, up-stream or down -stream... In France up- stream is usually better.. Great moment again, thank's a lot buddy.

[@ndyakangler]

Thanks Johann! I always seem to catch more fish working my way upstream. It’s easier to maintain a position and spend more time at those productive looking spots.

[@ulyssespalacios5498]

First cast 👌🏻👊🏻 stay killing it !!

[@ryanju3696]

best fishing videos hands down 🤟🏼❤️

[@Serpico7]

You are in heaven my friend! Shout out from North Cackylacky!!!!

[@RyanWashock]

Do you use an external mic? Also did you see at 3:28 there’s a smallmouth right next to your kayak towards the bottom of the screen

[@ndyakangler]

I use a lapel mic and run it to my Zoom H1. There’s lots of bass on this stretch of river, almost every one I hook into will have one or two others chasing it.

[@RyanWashock]

NDYakAngler that’s awesome I just found one of your videos yesterday and watched like 6 more they are awesome! They are almost therapeutic so calm and peaceful. I live in the CT river here in Vermont and I’ve noticed where there’s 1 smallmouth there will be at least one more nearby

[@rayturner3988]

Brother,This is yours >👑 your the Small Mouth King Fisher. No-one on this planet can catch the fish that your catching, and you make it look easy . I catch like one per'year and that's tuff. Tennessee ain't the state for Small Mouth by number, but there's some here and there, their just harder to hook i guess LOL" Anyway have a great one my friend, are mite i say King Sir later bro

[@HeyStripes]

14:19 "I don't wanna spook any fish that might be up over here" *throws a spook lure* :P

[@steveporteroutdoorsohio4739]

Awesome thank u very much I have really enjoyed your videos

[@jakesanders6638]

This year I cought my pb smallie on a little river like the one you are on, here in Washington it was 21 and a half inches on a popper.

[@ndyakangler]

Congrats! Any time you can hook into a 20”+ on topwater it’s an awesome battle!

[@thomasdalton1829]

What an awesome river ..small shallow clear and calm river that produces big smallies..i wish we had that ..we have swifter bigger rivers but still produce. Giant smallies

[@takayama1638]

That is a river in my dreams! Absolutely perfect river.

[@StaindOC]

Great video! Seriously -- nothing beats topwater fishing. Too bad my river doesn't really produce on topwater on the fall. They love them some soft swimbaits tho!

[@adamant365]

Rain rain rain still here. Got out once a couple weeks back and caught some nice healthy ones on top water. Water is so high in KY and haven’t been able to fish much but now it’s cooler and hopefully will get a couple chances before it gets too cold. Might try my hand at winter fishing since I’ve had almost no summer fishing this year.

[@Zoovfam]

Love this video. Smallies are biggins! I'm in MN too!

[@shawnwhalen8314]

I love the videos, I still have hope here in Michigan! It's Oct 15th, 50's air temp, I've been killing them all summer long with the Wopper Plopper perch color. I also kayak fish! Great videos! Hoping to get out soon.

[@ndyakangler]

Thanks! We have some 50’s and 60’s in the forecast for this week, should make for some good fishing now that the water has cooled off.

[@Search-money]

Great video! I dream about days like this💪

[@douglasbunn166]

So happy to see you retired the sandals and socks!
