Can The Snake Lure Catch A River Monster?

[@StanfordMack-le6cg]

Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit kzbin.infoUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.

[@mateom3729]

This is the second video of yours that I watch. No obnoxious music and no faking reactions. I appreciate your calm vibe and appreciation for every fish. :) Subscribed for sure!

[@bassfischer4273]

There aren't many KZbinrs who could make a 14-minute video with only two catches on it and still have it be totally interesting and enjoyable. Thanks Matt.

Best fishing channel on YT. It’s truly not even close. You fish exactly how I fish. Calm, content, Soaking in the beautiful landscapes, and wild life. There is truly something spiritual about fishing.

[@loban535]

the water being so clear makes this video just so much better being able to see the fish swimming around is so soothing

[@mattheweckerson6128]

I've been watching you since 10k subs and the thing that I always come back for is the fact that your style has not changed. You can see across many other KZbin channels that they more subs they get the more they change their style of videos and become more clickbaity. But I can always come here and rely on the same content that I've always liked. Always catching hogs with super high quality video can't complain. No screaming and yelling or getting overhyped just pure self. Hats off to you for keeping it original!

[@DubV-qr5xb]

Even if the fish aren't biting, I'd think just being on such a serene and gorgeous stretch of water would in itself be a treat. Thanks for sharing!

[@huskergator9479]

Who else watches EVERYWHERE Matt goes and thinks ‘man i’d love to hunt this for ducks and geese.’ It’s always that same initial thought, followed quickly by ‘Matt rocks’, ‘Matt is worlds best fisherman’, and ‘Why does Matt only have this many subs?’ No music, short and quiet narrative, absolutely gorgeous scenery even in winter, and tons of fish. Best channel ever.

As someone who loves to fish, your videos are the type "we" want to watch. You were unsure earlier this year about continuing, "WE" are all glad you decided to keep yakkin. 2 musky day on a kayak!!! That's not a slow day. Keep it up man, love your videos.

[@ndyakangler]

I was starting to get discouraged because I usually get a ton of pike on this river but they weren’t around on this trip. I did see about a half dozen muskie throughout the day though. The water temp was only 60 too so now that it’s starting to warm up it should be fun!

If you close your eyes and listen to how NDYakangler speaks while fishing. they both sound identical on how they both see something they want to add those beautiful moments and memories from experience. Happy Easter and Passover, God bless and One Love.

Watching a 14 minute video of you catch just 2 fish is better than watching any other video of others catching lots of fish.
