Great video.. I’m glad you were able to catch a few with them..👍👍

[@DoubleBogeyBass]

Has to be cool to see someone use something you made to catch fish! Nice job!

Way to go brother. Thanks for supporting this you tuber. He is way better than all the cool guy "bros".

[@ndyakangler]

Thanks again, the lures were great!

[@larryvilla6869]

Do you hunt elk and deer with a now I just got myself a 5 by 5 bull elk in idaho from under 10 yards it was legitimately changing me! I had to shoot a frontal which I have never done before It died in it's tracks.

How big is your pb I'm not going to judge definitely a hard fish to catch Also if you have lake smallmouth id reccomended using the tactical bassin swimbait heads with some chartreuse and blue paddle tail swimbaits in 3.8-4.2 size I caught my 4.25 pound pb on one this year!

We should all just start sending Matt random household items to see if he can catch fish with it, like a pen cap, paper clip, or spork.

I'll make a lego lure and send it to him

[@bogi2557]

Sunfishes are gigantic

[@differentfins]

Haha funny because it's true. I like fishing for everything, sunfish to sturgeon, and a 10" bluegill to me is just as exciting as a 40" esox. Also I am guilty of watching youtubers like 618 fishing and Extreme Philly Fishing which are full of hype and clickbaiting but I started watching them before all that junk. NDyakangler channel is simple and subtle, very refreshing. No need for the hype, fake excitement and clickbait. I fully understand how annoying some channels can be.

[@bogi2557]

Different Fins true. I don’t have much to brag about when it comes to fishing. I mostly fish in saltwater, and my biggest catch was a 6,5 lb pollock

[@differentfins]

@@bogi2557 gotta start somewhere! 6.5 pounds isnt exactly a minnow. It's weird how the trophies will show up when you least expect it. Keep your line wet, cheers!

By far the only fishing videos I watch anymore. You're so graceful and genuine and it's just a pleasure to tag along with you. Keep it up man!

[@differentfins]

Homemade lure? Looks as high quality as any production lure in the stores. So satisfying catching a fish on a lure you've made.

[@MisfitsFiendClub138]

Love how when he releases the smallies they turn and splash him each time with their tails

[@fade242black]

16:30 - casts it into a tree, still catches a monster smallie.

[@gavingraves2279]

it was a largemouth tho rite?

[@ryanguthrie9619]

[@charlesr.aliffjr.4050]

Same here, I was dead in the middle, up to my eyeballs in something here at work and received notification that NDYakAngler had posted a new video...all work stopped. Just finished watched yet another amazing smallmouth video. Smallmouth fishing is primarily all I fish for so Matt's videos are greatly appreciated and enjoyed. Love the sound of the paddle going through the water...10X better than loud, obnoxious music. PS- this is funny. A good fishing buddy in Florida just texted me Matt had just posted another video : > )

[@Erin-vu1tt]
