Frosty the scum frog, was a jolly, slimy bait, With his Walmart lure and his big bass dreams, he just couldn't wait. He hopped into the water, with a splash and a swish, And the bass all gathered 'round him, to fulfill their fishing wish. Frosty the scum frog, was a lure for me and you, He'd catch those big ol' bass, in the waters clear and blue. Kayak fishing with him, was always such a blast, Oh, Frosty the scum frog, he sure could fish at last! In the early morning hours, out on the calm lake, Frosty the scum frog leaped and dived, for big bass' sake. With his hooks all ready, and his colors bright and bold, He lured those hungry bass in, from the depths so cold. Frosty the scum frog, was a lure for me and you, He'd catch those big ol' bass, in the waters clear and blue. Kayak fishing with him, was always such a blast, Oh, Frosty the scum frog, he sure could fish at last! Now the other anglers marveled, at the bass he'd bring ashore, They'd ask where he got Frosty, and they'd rush to get some more. For the scum frog was a legend, in the fishing world so fine, And he'll keep on catching bass, time after time. Frosty the scum frog, was a lure for me and you, He'd catch those big ol' bass, in the waters clear and blue. Kayak fishing with him, was always such a blast, Oh, Frosty the scum frog, he sure could fish at last! So if you're out there fishing, and you're looking for a sign, Just remember Frosty the scum frog, and you'll do just fine! With his Walmart lure a-gleaming, in the morning's early fog, You'll catch those big ol' bass, with Frosty the scum frog!

This is too funny, and very cool !! Great job and thanks !

[@greggdsciotto8952]

Outstanding!!😎

😂😂😂😂😂😂🎶🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥

[@cbvoicenotes267]

SOO creative!!!

[@ewright444]

The cast at 12:31 was amazing

[@hbrianunderwood4946]

Sniper

[@aprilgeneric8027]

yeah with a bait caster...that's a dedicated fisherman with many hours of casting practice. my favorite cast was the last fish.... barely hits the water and fish on!

[@DaleHenry-CIG]

Matt, congratulations on making history! Of all the fishing videos ever made, I'm confident this is the first one that includes the statement, "Let's see if I can catch one more on my one-legged santa frog"! Thanks for putting in all the time and effort to product these videos for us! You do an incredible job.

[@soxman9]

I laughed so much. Just didn't expect to hear statements like: fishing with a 1 legged santa or Oh no he bit my other leg off.

[@applejuice-3341]

While I do enjoy watching the elite pros and big tournaments, I’ve come to really appreciate the content that you make. Fishing, at its core for me, is therapeutic. You go out, talk quietly, and catch some awesome fish. Keep up the great work

[@thatfishingnoob]

Right? Matt’s simple approach really is therapeutic. It’s nice seeing the excitement and huge energy, but this approach is also amazing and like a form of meditation.

[@UdontKnow8]

Yaaaay some holiday fun with the fishing master!🎉🎉

[@bonyclifton181]

The best frog out there. Yes it gets water logged a bit but a cast past a weed bed, then retrieving to the pad, quickly over to rest on the near side, is deadly.

[@ndyakangler]

My only gripe is the legs get pulled off. The action was great though!

[@bonyclifton181]

I used a one legged scum frog for a month. Tacklewarehouse has them

[@TinyTaco1342]

This way of fishing is cooler than what im used to, but its like a thrill when u have a fish that close to your boat, exiting! i like it.

[@barrymcbride]

Nothing beats the top water bite

[@thats.grantastic]

I knew it was pre-recorded because there's no black fingernail 😄

[@Offthegridfishing]

I’m glad even the bass got some charisma action

[@JackcatsandbassYT]

I caught my PB in the yak yesterday! Definitely a huge inspiration for kayak bass fishing! Btw do you have trout streams in the midwest? It would be really cool to see a fly fishing video or a float trip down a river for trout in the yak.

[@andrewverran4230]

Not many unless theyre stocked or runoff into the great lakes.

[@TH-rn2lx]

There are a lot of trout streams in SE Minnesota but most of them aren’t really big enough for kayak fishing.

[@brianmontello9074]

Thanks Matt, for bringing in the Christmas Cheer! I love top water frog fishing. Way to plan ahead. Merry Christmas

[@joesphbenwy3845]

You know how to go have fun wish I could fish together I'd learn fast but have the best fish ING time of my old life to rember please do what I can't gongetemmhavebfun give your family a hug tell them thank you for Leven you come get your fishnlove to fish were linesbtobyou.

[@cosmogervasi4496]

That first Strike was Sweet! 🎣🐸👍

[@EliteBassStickFishing]

Topwater is life💯the excitement will never age💯💪🏽👊🏽LET’S GOOO🫡

[@rvmcwhorter]

Hahahahaha, Santa got beat up , a pike would have ripped him clean in half. So good. Having a blast right now in the parking lot at work at Amazon getting ready to get those last minute gifts to all those kids for Christmas . I’m a real life elf . Merry Christmas sir and thank you for all the cool fishing all year , the smallies are my favorite and I’ve learned so much from you . Peace.☮️

[@ndyakangler]

I did that at FedEx for a few years and I don’t miss the holiday season there lol

[@redbeard6606]

I agree any open water action is better than ice fishing.

[@nick.smith616]

Totally didn't film this in short sleeves during froggin season in MN. Way to plan ahead! Merry Christmas

[@chrispayne591]

Best fisherman ever, it looks very green in Minesotta , was this filmed a little while ago?

[@daveandcherylbrown4560]

Bingo!!! I live in Northern Minnesota and I find it hard to believe it's December with leaves on the trees & birds singing like it was spring!!! Love the goofy lures though!❤

[@_JimS]

These Scummies ROCK! I love these crazy lures, I remember the "Chewbacca" lure,,,,Lol! I bought one of those open loop scissor clamps for fly fishing, Umpqua I believe, very versatile.

[@harrygrimley4352]

Nice. Ive said it before I'll say it again. Bass are eating machines. If it is in the water, if it moves in the water bass will eat it! Love it. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@codybertram6122]

The scum frogs always gave me some of the best hookups when I fished bass. They’re body is softer than most but they get tore up easy. The scum dog walker fishes extremely easy for beginners.

[@zipzapzoom111]

I highly recommend the ribbit "top toad" for anyone who likes fishing these buzz style frogs. They are absolute fish catching machines and are pretty light on the wallet

[@joshual9759]

Sshhhhhh!!!

[@antoniomora1255]

Thank you very much. I’ll try to find one of those ribbit top toad.

[@michaelpazdan7334]

I did really well this Eason with the ribbit toad. Got a couple big snakehead too

[@vincentgelles3805]

Those Stanley Ribbit top toads are definitely fish catchers. Savage Gear makes one called the Duratech toad that is awesome too. It’s made out of an elaztech type material so it’s super durable. They also float so you can pause it when you get to a spot where you know a bass should be. I’ve caught more 5 and 6 pound largemouth on that Savage Gear toad than I have on any other lure!

[@JReb71]

Merry Christmas and happy fishing bro

[@braxtontetstone409]

It's the heer comes santa frog for me😂

[@Offthegridfishing]

Love your videos , never disappointed

[@scottschlemmer4787]

There must have been some magic in That old plastic lure they found For when they gulped it with their mouths They began to dance around

[@ThomasWilliams-ee6li]

Minnesotan here. Crazy weather we're having. You should be able to drive across that lake by now.

[@doster59]

Thanks for the Christmas present, what a great surprise. Was hoping for a verse of "Frosty The Scumfrog!"

[@googanbaits4341]

That’s great😂 this is cool a Thursday upload! Thanks for the amazing content and hope you have a great Christmas!

[@louishernandez4422]

Merry Christmas!! I'm lookin forward to next year's fishing

[@rayflynn7942]

Happy Christmas and a prosperous New year to you, your partner and the little one🎉 looking forward to some more Zen fishing from the master in the next year

[@johnwhitmore5408]

"Here comes Santa Frog," hahaha you should record a Xmas album...🧑‍🎄

[@markroth9827]

[@homegrowncatch]

[@mikepollock8295]

[@motoformprototyping]

Happy holidays from Sweden, thanks for all the good videos this year.

[@barrymcbride]

Merry Christmas Matt and everyone.

[@FishinDownSouthTv]

Youre videos are like ASMRs. The catch following the sounds of the water splashing because of the fish is so satisfying 🔥🔥😮‍💨

[@MJ-sn4ue]

What a treat to hear birds singing in December in MN. Thanks for your videos and have a great Christmas and new year.

[@Tony-vk4gc]

Blitz frigs sell replacement legs that fit the scum frogs great. A bit if glue to handle a giod tug and not come out easily

[@whitewolfw4623]

What a beautiful lake. Awesome video.

[@macmcelroy6165]

happy holidays Matt and all the other subscribers - hey we're one day closer to spring !

[@htschad9685]

Hope you and yours have a Happy and safe Holiday! Merry Christmas! Thanks for all the relaxing and fun videos! I love it when you throw the likes of Chewbacca and frosty out there and actually catch fish!

[@joeoconnor7366]

Merry Christmas brother!! Enjoying the ride as always ❤

[@keithschneller130]

Hey Matt -I can't wait to get back out in my yak for more topwater!!! You are such a great teacher and I love the quiet and excitement of watching you at work. You are the Master! I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Healthy and Prosperous New Year. Hope to see you out on the water in 2024...

[@Elroy5150]

Another fantastic video!

[@johnqualls5990]

Happy holidays from Germany. Really miss catching bass, so thanks for the videos.

[@SquirrelTheater]

“Here comes Santa frog…” 🤣😂

[@matth851]

Ndyakangler fishing a top water frog? Its a Christmas miracle!

[@truebalsamhogs]

Thanks, well done. Merry Christmas

[@andydolan176]

Thanks for planning ahead pal, this was just what I needed. Still waiting for the ice on the Bay of Quinte and this helped with my angling addiction withdrawals. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@htuckey]

Wasn't expecting much on here today, just scrolling by, and lo and behold, an early Christmas present! That was some pretty good top water action for such a cold winter day! These old bones aren't up to the cold any more, so I'll have to keep hitching a ride with you, Matt, until the sun comes out again. It's been a great ride, and I wish you and your family a Blessed Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year! Thank you for all the great fishing adventures!

[@randallpinkfloyd7225]

Here comes Santa Frog, here comes Santa Frog……..

[@steinerp]

[@user-ye7ro5sg4p]

[@rogernull6151]

Great video! As we're stuck here in fishing limbo, (no ice yet) it's nice to have Summer top-water action to dream about.

[@timcorston5508]

Merry Christmas.. looking forward to your ‘next time’ videos..

[@jackfish2094]

[@davesmnsports]

Thank you for stoking the fever while the lake is frozen. Going south soon so I can fish

[@dragchute1]

Have a great holiday season with family .. friends .. and fishing. Cheers

[@christophershelton1735]

The green reeds and grass definitely didn’t give it away.

[@JamesKing-jw6hs]

Culvert hit, and strike were classic, thanks 🎉 Merry Christmas

[@joespafford6499]

I'm totally keep an eye out for that kind of lures. Awesome video man that last dish was beautiful I love the way they crushed it the last two fish you caught.

[@BenjySparky]

Matt, you rock! Merry Christmas to you and yours. Peace

[@jamessontankersley2255]

Merry Christmas!!!!! The early upload made my week!

[@marcjuras1623]

Happy Merry Christmas to all of you 🌲

[@allanulen3809]

Merry Christmas to you and your family Matt. Great year of videos. Maybe a recap of the year for new years?

[@dennisstewart7849]

Merry Christmas, from southeastern Iowa. I was born in northeastern North Dakota, but Iowa raised. I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Matt.

[@ivofurtado8032]

Awesome video. Keep them coming .and merry Christmas to you and your family

[@listojopie7772]

amazing videos dude!!!

[@JimHickeyFishing]

Merry Christmas to you and yours Matt...

[@clydeshope6942]

Another awesome video well done some really nice be fish

[@chipseiler1766]

Are you serious! Too much fun. NEVER expected topwater in ND Christmas week!!! Unbelievable. Didn't you just do some ice-fishing a week or so ago? (FYI - Just ordered Santa and a Gingerbread man from AMAZON. both have "skirt" style legs.) ...I was surprised when I saw some surface panfish action last week here in NC, but I tried a brown/gold crickhopper and caught a couple bluegill and a crappie. I was excited since the pond I was fishing had a massive fish die off this summer and fishing has been dead! I've had many 'skunk" days in a row. This used to be very rare for me. Once every 6 months or so, so to have 6 or 7 days in a row with zero fish (of any species) has been depressing and difficult to deal with. Thanks for sharing this fun video. Merry Christmas!!!

[@TheRiverAddict]

Merry Christmas Matt!

[@peterhammill9313]

Great video and please keep them going!! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family.

[@antoniomora1255]

I didn’t expect this video on a Thursday and it’s made me quite happy to enjoy this topwater action when the weather is cold in my town. I caught my last largemouth in October on a rat lure and this video takes me back to the warmer days of early fall that I miss so much.

[@NESig]

Here comes Santa Frog, here comes Santa Frog. :)

Merry Christmas to you and yours and remember the reason for the season
