Great video Mike. Matthew really knows his stuff. I was amazed at how fast he was dropping on the fish, really impressed me. Thanks for sharing

[@stanwilliamso3094]

Good stuff!

[@aaronbarkley3475]

Great video. Thanks for sharing

[@MidwestOutlaw86]

Drop over them fish 10 times then they bite. I give up a lot quicker guess I'll have to present the bait more times. Great show Mike.

[@trevormcdowell3104]

Love the videos Mike, I’m a Truman guy too, we put in around Long Shoal usually. If you ever wanna take a fan out that knows way less about the sport than you, hit me up! Haha. Keep the videos coming!

[@ctmoboctmobo5061]

Awesome, and thanks

[@ClearWaterCrappie]

Being a guide and a livescope guy myself, you can always learn something from Matthew Rogers. Dude explains how to single pole like no other. Good video!

[@timbeste9820]

Tim Beste I've been watching your videos for several years now thanks so much for all your information you pass on, the last few of your videos are priceless.

[@redge3726]

Really enjoyed the show, Thank You. I too would like to see another show with Matthew.

[@samthompson1270]

Thanks Mike for what you're doing for us. Truly some great information and some interesting folks with you, sharing their knowledge as well.

[@josephpable5661]

Great video series, Mike. Lots of respect for you and all these guys you've had in your boat. I especially like how they all tweak the livescope a little bit differently, and the young buck Matthew really went into some of the technical details about the TVG and gain settings. Much appreciated!

[@lenefuimaono7595]

Another great video Mike, I met Matthew about six years ago on Stockton Lake. He sure quite a bit of information and help me find fish on Stockton when I first moved to the lake. Heckuva nice guy and fun to be around. thanks Mike.

[@Rubo7]

Is Stockton any good for crappie? Is there a good population of crappie there? I feel like it’s a really hard lake to fish?

[@lenefuimaono7595]

@@Rubo7 Stockton has a good population of crappy. It can be hard at times because of the wind to stay on the water. It’s like any other lake once you figure it out you’ll be able to load the boat. I fish all year around on Stockton.

[@Rubo7]

@@lenefuimaono7595 thanks I may I have to try it again. Do guys fish the crappie pretty shallow as well? I’ve seen most guys on Truman fishing 5-15 feet a lot.

[@callmecamo2]

You're killing it with these videos, Mike.

[@fatfred1234]

Another Excellent video mr baker! Thank you Mr Rogers!

[@pilot5298]

Great series you are doing. I really appreciate you having guests on your show. Keep the Livescope footage coming. I really enjoyed watching you target one fish and just keep casting until you catch him.

[@fishin-impossible2992]

Yes sir there was a lot of good info in this video Thanks Mr Baker

[@ericcartmill4615]

Really enjoyed the video, love this series on truman!

[@gregcavender7798]

[@traceybrookd9821]

[@jimcrow4108]

Thanks 🙏

[@MrASSFELT]

Great video, thanks Mike. A lot of really good info.

[@kennysmith3299]

Best livescope video fishing video I’ve ever seen. Thanks Mike and Matt

[@c.s.3746]

Great video. Very informative. Not just a video on pulling fish out of the water, but showing how to hook them first. I went out fishing yesterday and tried and tried to put the bait in front of the fish and nothing would happen. Started the cast to and bring it back over the top, and started putting fish in the boat.

[@dannymalone4073]

Thanks for a great info video Mike & Matthew!!!!!

[@badognobisc]

Matthew and Mike great video, heck of a nice guy. Both excellent guides and good humans, regardless of the boat the run in. The fish don't care as long as they get in the boat. Great videos guys! So honest and transparent. Great fishing day. Thanks again Mike Baker and Matthew Rogers. Welcome to the APM family.

Thanks Mike! These seem like Bill Dance, Jimmy Houston, Hank Parker shows only with more information!

[@joeb7508]

Great stuff Mike !

[@dougmaust4928]

Matthew found someone shorter than him. Nice video.

[@kipwright148]

Glad I found this video. I run mine plug n play straight factory. Need to play with it a bit. Especially color gain and tag. Been running my gain in the low 80s fishing 35-45 FOW on Fork. It works but I can probably get a better picture.

[@bobwilliams5506]

Fine young man. Thanks for the vid and the info.

[@jamiejohnson1200]

Great video

[@williambray7876]

hey Mike thank you for these videos im learning tons about live scope. One question. At 12:45 into the video, is that by Cooper Creek landing

[@jimendris2983]

I enjoy your videos and just installed livescope hopefully to be a better fisherman

[@bobbyyoung7836]

How did you mount your transducer? Trying to do it right first time. Thanks

[@davidegeland2380]

G3 row!

[@discoveryoutdoorskcfishing236]

I have some lake property in Warsaw on loz. Great area.

[@chrisangerer6015]

Nice video and good information on locations of where to fish. Any secrets to what type of jig and colors. You guys alluded to the size of jigs and live bait but not to the type. Thanks and keep the videos coming

[@MikeBakerVideos]

In this video Matthew was using a 1/8 oz. gray and silver hair jig.

[@superman9879]

Would you share a pic of the hair jig?

[@bobbyyoung7836]

Livescope

[@mokush4me412]

Nice..What mount do you use for your Livescope?

[@MikeBakerVideos]

Cornfield Crappie double mount.

[@jimcrow4108]

Mike is always necessary to fish in front of the boat ? Can you fish underneath the transducer with a short 4 foot pole?

[@MikeBakerVideos]

Sure, if you don't spook them.

[@jimcrow4108]

What kind of mount do you have

[@MikeBakerVideos]

Cornfield crappie

[@joshtramell]

Mike what fish scale are you using in your videos?

[@MikeBakerVideos]

Rapala

[@joshtramell]

Thank you sir! Learning a lot from your videos. I know we all appreciate it

[@jerryfrancois2014]

Sure..it's easy with a fish finder and a depth finder to figure them out..lol

[@joelharrington2577]

Thank you for the great video. I really appreciate the discussion of livescope settings and techniques from different guys. How do you have livescope mounted on your trolling motor? I thought I remember you said cornfield crappie mount- what are your thoughts on it? Thanks again for the videos!

[@MikeBakerVideos]

I have my livescope transducer mounted on the shaft of the trolling motor. I show it in my video with Mike Vallentine.

[@joelharrington2577]

@@MikeBakerVideos found it, thank you. Come to table rock and shoot a video sometime 👍🏼

[@bobbyyoung7836]

Mike what have you got your lives open transducer mounted on. Also do you have a single battery dedicated to the licmvescope? Happy New Year.

[@rdonner28]

Morning!!! Sitting here reviewing the video in my mind and im a fan of Matthew Rogers and I noticed he was being very LIGHT during his hooksets and boat flipping???? Not his usual energy so I was wondering 🤔. I did hear him say he was using 10# K9. I like your hooksets because you don't play with them!!! Bam set the hook and hear they come lol. So what gear do you use and if you know what all he was using..... Thanks!!!

[@MikeBakerVideos]

As I recall, Matthew was using 10# K9 braid. I use 15 # Spiderwire ultracast invisi-braid.

[@rdonner28]

@@MikeBakerVideos . Thanks! Rod's & Reels.?

[@MikeBakerVideos]

@@rdonner28 I use the 13' B & M Super Stick with a Lew's or Diawa bait cast reel. Matthew uses an HH rod and a mini reel. Not sure of the brand.

[@steveking8548]

Is Matthew Rogers related to Kevin Rogers? If so, what's the relationship? Mike, why do you have a rod in your hand with Matthew in the boat? Would it be better if you just hung on to the scale? : ) You ARE one of my favorites and today it was great listening to the excitement in your voice! BEST VIDEO YET!!!

[@MikeBakerVideos]

I do not think Matthew is related to Kevin. Your observations are correct. Thanks for watching!

[@robertscherzer8080]

Which reel was he using on his rod? Been looking into a decent mini bait caster.

[@MikeBakerVideos]

Grizzly elite.

13’ B & M “Super Stick”. It is a great rod.
