Ice Fishing Evening CRAPPIE Action - LIMITED OUT!

[@pattonorr7572]

It’s a damn shame that the algorithm isn’t kinder to Matt as he continues to produce top-notch content that’s created a loyal and engaged subscriber base.

[@snydley67]

No joke man, my favorite channel by far, just fantastic work!

[@differentfins]

Not too many fishing channels bigger than his. Not sure if it's the algorithm, might just be limited audience. If he was a 15 year old girl doing makeup tutorials he would have 15M subs lol. Seems like fishing channels top out at the half million mark, only one I know in the millions is BlacktipH, but let's be honest. If you are catching monster sharks and 600 pound groupers regularly people who dont even like fishing are watching lol.

[@marzaik_yt]

The only fishing I have ever done is in video games. And youtube recommended me this channel. This dude is super cool so I subbed. Its kind of working at least.

[@Mirandorl]

Love this. No heavy metal, no yelling or forced jeopardy, conflict or competition. Just relaxing, interesting fishing with informative dialogue that shows how much you enjoy it. The reality TV we need 🙂

As I have said before, I absolutely love the perch and panfish action. Christmas crappie fry sounds fantastic. Always love watching.

[@mikeyc1928]

The sight of a bobber sliding down the side of the hole...a wonderful thing.

[@tz4031]

Even if the crappies eventually swim back down the hole.. when you catch them in really deep water they will affected by barotrauma.. you can't plan to catch and release them in those deep basin spots. It's best to plan to harvest fish in that situation.

[@TheRiverAddict]

Now that looked like a blast. Those were some super nice ones!

[@gregbudig5014]

There is something so magical about bobber fishing through the ice. Waiting and anticipating, watching the bobber slip beneath the ice.... it's what fishing is all about! Sitting there watching the fish on an Aqua-View camera takes all the mystery out of fishing. Happy Holidays and cheers to keeping it simple!!

[@ndyakangler]

[@Skank_Hunt42]

@@johnnybee6286 lol... in my area, only Asians eat small/largemouth bass. I've personally seen a couple Asian decent fishermen catch and kept a two man limit of 4lb bass on a yellow stringer. Sad sight to see but they were well within thier right and regulations to keep what they caught.

[@johnnybee6286]

@@Skank_Hunt42 @Tom Well Tom I grew up in a small town, my family didnt have much money so we took what we could get. My dad hunted deer and feral hogs and he took me out to fish because I was too young to shoot a gun. We never poached and always supported our state by purchasing licenses and buying gear from our local store. Ive seen plenty of Asian people on our local waters poach, but not all of them. Nothing we can really do. We only took enough for dinner then fished for sport the rest of the time. I was fortunate and have a great job now, but damn I still love some bass stovetop with butter and garlic! Much more flaky then crappie.

[@Skank_Hunt42]

A tip for when crappies won’t go down the whole right away, is that you have to close their mouths. Other wise they just sit there. Try closing their mouths and they should go back down. Always works for me.

[@carlsonmn]

I agree I learned that years ago they seem to go into shock with their mouths open. Close their mouth and they seem to wake up and with a good drop they often are able to swim back down even caught from 30-35 foot depths. Confirmed on my underwater camera and they seem to be doing well.

[@CurtsPedalSteelVideos]

@@carlsonmn I hadn't heard this before. That's a good tip.

Those fish were very active I could never use bait of that size as they just don’t hit that hard for us on the Mississippi. The White bass are very good eating also by the way.
