Really nice of those guys in the boat to cut in front of you on the bank you are fishing in the same direction. I really don't get it why some folks have no fishing etiquette or respect for others. I can only imagine what their daily lives are like. Another great video man! Thanks!

I’m pretty sure I would never go to work if I had lakes, rivers, and streams consistently producing monsters damn near ever cast. You live in a great spot

At the mention of your affiliate link in your description and being curious as to how many lures you might sell based upon your suggestions and videos, I can tell you for a fact that I already filled up slots in my grab-n-go bag with lures you most frequently use. Even got frustrated hunting for tungsten jigheads in the local panfish aisles for your Nikko maggot/jighead crappie combo. The whopper 75 with the salmon/trout colouring you use most often got crushed by a 3lb largemouth last night, so you may be surprised at how many anglers might try something you throw onto your rod one day. Keep up the excellent video quality! You're like the Bob Ross of kayak fishing. Kind, gentle to the fish, and you always have a positive disposition in these videos. They always brighten my day when i see a new one on my feed.

Perfect timing brother!! Coffee and the yak fishing on sat...morning. thx man

The fact that you also go on to get picked up by a company and offered commission means you're killing it dude! Favorite KZread fishing channel. Keep it up dude, you're the man!

Catching a nice fish in front of jerks that were cutting you off is the best move ever lol

No matter where you fish or how big the lake is, there is always someone like this guys to come to where you are just like the guy that parks next to you at Lowes when half the lot is empty.

I’m a Shimano guy. However. I got one those Daiwas last year . And what a reel it is! Definitely up there. Amazing quality

Have you ever had any issues with the curado 150 DC? I've lost more fish on that reel. Anything over 3lbs I can hardly reel in. It's like it doesn't have the torque. Every time I get a 5lb+ largemouth It's all I can do to get them in

I think those “old-farts” were scaring the Pike right over to ya😜I love the colors on those Pike,the tail and fins are nicely marbled, with no rips, very healthy.

What beautiful morning. First time I saw another boat on this spot. Still didn't look crowded. Hope you shake that cold soon. Super video! Thanks.

Great pike video.After watching the smallmouth bass video from last year i did go on the Headbanger site and ordered 2 for myself to try this summer.No other retailer had these in stock at the time.Thanks for all the great tips and ideas.

So much water available to fish and yet they need to be in front of you … reminds me of local situations! Great catches 👍

The whole line of Headbanger lures is excellent. Keep the great videos coming

Happy Saturday everyone :)

First of all, thanks so much for making these videos. Yours is the only fishing channel to which I subscribe. Love your locations and presentation (and results, of course). Also, ordered the Spitfire using your link. Glad I could support the channel in some way. Keep up the great work!

I love your videos, always. I find the lures you use really helpful. Always learning from your videos.

Another great video that leaves me wanting to get out on my kayak and go get them! You consistently impress me sir! Nice fish!

The last pike was very beautiful. Great video as always. Thank you for sharing

Me and my 9 year old daughter love your videos. During the school year we watched an episode every night before bed. Her favorite videos are with the whopper plopper. Thanks for all that you do.

These are the best videos ever. I don’t normally “look forward” to KZread videos, but I look you up every day

Beautiful hook sets and releases. Good to see solid fishermen! Gl out there bud

Great vid. Impressed that you pulled fish out even with the line jumper boat. All good.

Your anchor remote looks like a little alien head. great video as per usual!

Ol Bob Ross of yak fishing calls it as some dudes dip in close in front of him, remains calm and chill as ever and BAM loads up on the topwater within their casting distance! HAPPY LITTLE HEADBANGER! Nice vid and beautiful Pikes!

Keep this up bro, these videos are fricking awesome 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Edit: the topwater strikes are the besttt🙌

Hey let's jump the boat ahead of this kayak commando. When does that become okay? Sheez. Great video Matt, lost a prized smallies topwater to a 30 plus inch pike. Landed the fish but all our hook removers were too short. Broke my heart to leave it in but we would have killed that nice fish for a $6 lure. Now armed with a handful of nice hook extraction tools like the lodges in Canada keep in their boats. Lesson learned. Thanks for taking us along brother. Blessings

Big fan. Watched , clicked, and bought the 4". Can't wait to get it and drop the yak into the Chickahominy River and snag some bass, chain pickerel, and Bowfin. Love topwater.

I bought mine after watching your first Smallmouth video using it. I have yet to catch one on it but you've never steered us wrong on a Lure so it's just a matter of time.

Oh my Saturday morning just got so much better

I love how they pulled up and then you starting catching them right in their faces 🤣

Great video and great big fish 🐟 👏

GREAT videos! Keep them coming please.

I was already thinking of buying one of those since the last video you had out, but now you've got another banger of a video. I'm sure I'll be buying one sometime this week now, thanks to you. Lol. I'll make sure to click the link for you too. BTW, I caught my first decent fish just a couple days ago - A 3-4lb largemouth. All I've been catching lately are small guys. Hopefully the flooded areas here start lowering and attracting the fish to come back around.

I know I bought one of the spitfire lures after your first video fishing for smallmouth. Awesome action on it

I have purchased a couple of the lures you use. Whopper plopper takes the cake. Damn good lure. The spider couldn't catch a thing.

Id say that was a great and eventful morning. The only thing I would have done different is had one of those pike in the deep fryer that afternoon for lunch. Always a great video and time watching you fish.

Matt, that lake has some bigguns. Caught an 18lbr three years ago in there. the Headbanger lures are incredible. Absolute hammer here in NC.

Dang, yeah that was a blast indeed!!!

Yes you did sell a few after that smallmouth video. I pretty much immediately ordered them after watching that.
