I completely become immersed in your videos. I'm 71 and retired and I think I'm going to buy a kayak and take up both bass fishing and fishing the saltwater marshes where I live for red fish, trout and flounder. You are truly an inspiration!!! I'm always watching for your next video!

You have no idea just how relaxing and enjoyable I find your content. I wish I could fish like this, but age and arthritic knees… Again, I really enjoy your videos and am always looking forward to the next fishing trip.
I’m always captivated by the action of lures under water. This was great because not only could I see the fish you were getting at but I could also see what was going on with that lure under water as well. That’s sick. I can’t imagine fishing in anything that clear here in Texas.

I love your videos! I've been watching your videos for a couple years now. No loud obnoxious music. Just hookset feed left and right. Always entertaining. The attention is always only on the bait and the fishing. It is exactly what every fisherman wants to see on KZread. Just reeling in fish left and right. I'm jealous of the locations you get to fish at. I live in the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts. We do have some good fishing out here but it's nothing like what you have. All of our areas are overfished

Years ago, as a young man I used to fish clear water like that in what was called a belly boat. I would fish at night and use a 6. broken back Rapala that I would paint all flat black. Man, you talk about pull the rod out of your hand hits. I had many of good nights fishing like that.
You are by far my favorite KZread fisherman. Keep up the good work, and great content!
Matt with another banger. I’m just got me a kayak gonna bring it out for the first time today I’m nervous as hell but this video got me pumped up 💪🏼

Your my favorite KZread channel. Thanks dude! Your the inspiration for all the fishing I’ve done in the last 2 years. Which have been my best.
Every time I fish clear water it makes me think of all the wasted casts I make when I'm not fishing clear water searching for a bite. I tend to think there are gonna be lots of fish where I'm casting, but in reality there probably aren't that many. Thanks again for the videos man!!

Man how peaceful. So beautiful and calm. Love the content...feels like I'm right there with you!
Hey Matt another great adventure! In inspiration of you I just bought my first St croix rod. Just a simple 7 foot medium fast. Glad to see you getting some more large mouth then usual, that’s what I’m used to fishing for. I also invested in a nice kayak so I can go on relaxing trips like you. I learn lots from you and I appreciate your time put into this account. 😎🤘
When you whisper, I have the urge to whisper. Very calm and thrilling all in one
Always a big fan of your content. Helps me get through the frozen minnesota winters. Thanks a million sir!
Fishing clear water is the best! Fishing Lake Havasu (AZ) is great due to the clear water. Thx Mat!
The wacky worm mustache joke good
That opening segment / fish was incredibly well done. Excellent work!
Man that's the kind of bass fishing I dream about! Awesome video
Wacky work never fails with bass, they LOVE that sucker! Awesome video dude I am really enjoying living vicariously through you and these vids. Fishing the fox river in IL gets me plenty of 2-3 lb smallies which are a blast but where you’re at is like a dream spot. Cool to see you respect nature and are mindful of taking care of these beautiful hogs.
I will be going tonight, whopper plopper perch for top water on the river by my house. I started wading the river for bass and now I am a kayak fisherman, my wife is so thankful that I found your videos🤣🤣. I used to troll Saginaw bay for walleye every weekend but now it's hard not to go after smallmouth for the fun of it.
You are a lucky man to live in such a beautiful place with big fish is what life is all about!!

Absolutely beautiful!! Love watching your videos.

Nice video and great bass Matt. We had a topwater bite for about 4 hours Saturday then they switched off. Had to finesse the largemouth with wacky rig worms and a little swim bait. I caught 4 sight fishing best about 15.5 inches. It's killer watching the approach and attack
Lucky to fish in areas where not 100 people in the same area. So pretty🐟🐟
wacky worm has never let me down . Down here in north Louisiana
That is so very good. Excellent!
Great vid. I use a shoelace and a clamp as a makeshift brushgripper. I clip right to lillypads all the time since there pretty strong.

I love your tranquil fishing videos. I can’t fathom how well you cast with a bail caster. I can do it for awhile but eventually I screw up and create a big tangled mess. I’m at the point now with it that I have heavy duty line and troll for monster pike whenever I feel the need to use it.
You are the calmest fisher man ever, every other KZreadr screams when they catch a big fish,

I’ve caught so many fish right next to me in clear water with the wacky worm. I don’t know why they work so well but they do!
The first bass you caught with the other one chasing it reminds me of a few weeks ago when I had gone to a new lake like a HUGE lake I’ve never been to before and I hooked into a little dink bass and a 7lber came out from under a dock and swallowed my little bass lol they both came off since the bigger one wasn’t hooked but it was still really cool to see
Great video nice big fish!!
Thank you 🙏
Fly fishing this lake must be an absolut blast!
Beautiful water!!
you have some amazing spots sir! had to upgrade the son's yak this year, and he is already gotten more fish than myself. Really wish I could find spots like these.

For some reason they just catch fish, pretty much any time I tie one on. You can hook directly through the worm but they’ll only last a fish or two that way. Most people use a small o-ring, I use a little band of clear heat shrink tubing at the middle of the worm and run the hook through that. I’m surprised the one fish shook my worm, one will usually last me all day.

A marvellous fishing scenario all too similar, except for the water lilies, to the reservoir which is my bass paradise over here in Spain: clear water with tall columns of weeds. I enjoyed this video a lot because is about sight fishing, a practice I am familiar with since I was a kid but not by the wacky rig, of course, because that method had not been invented yet. I am talking about the seventies and the lure was a simple black plastic worm which was rigged weightless. Those marvellous worms were our “bread and butter” for bass fishing and were imported from the USA, the brand was Boone. The more veterans of you Americans will surely remember them. It was me as a kid the one in charge of preparing them for the three of us: my dad, my brother and myself. I would rig them with a length of monofilament and three small hooks driving the line through the worm by means of a solid long needle. Bass sight fishing in clear waters, like that of García de Sola reservoir, was a weekend joy: watching the bass dart to the worm, open its mouth and offer the green bright of its flank at the hookset …what a rush of adrenaline…
Nice catches. Wacky worm always come through when bass are being picky.
Very nice place for fishing mate
