    You just got a new fan! I’m going to be 66 on July 31 and I live with my nephew and his family who help care for me and they have a calico cat named Fiona that just started sitting on my desk next to my I pad and watched your video with me! A couple of times when you held up a bass she would paw 🐾 at it on the screen 📺 like she was trying to get it. We both love your videos and appreciate your work. Thanks for taking us along.

      I, too, bring more gear and rods and end up using only 1 because it seems to work. However, yesterday, I went with a ton of stuff and ended up using some variety of it all. Mainly because I was set to be out all day, and as such, the conditions and targets change. It started with trying Topwater with a skitter pop, getting no success, then as more boats came out, I switched to a grub on a weedless jig. When those failed, I went in, had lunch, and tied on a wacky worm and a 3/8 Oz Husky Jerk. I then started ripping out bass with both. The only thing that I wanted to try was a Carrolina Rig worm, but my fish finder died, and I wasn't sure where the drop-off was. So I had to bail on that. I also hadn't fished for so long and so I am throwing as much as I can into the water and remember what it was for.

I didn't have a lot of success but he caught quite a few. I said that I was getting their attention and he was there to get the bite, so really we both caught the fish. :) LoL.

    Hey brother. I was watching your other catfish videos when you were using shrimp and getting your bait stolen. You know you can buy this stuff called Atlas Mike's Magic Thread? You wrap it 3 times around the shank, wrap it all around your bait(this even works with chicken liver btw), then wrap it 3 times around the shank again, then break it off. You don't even need to tie any knots, and it helps to keep your bait from being stolen so much and gives you a better casting distance with soft bait.

In one day of float tube fly fishing in a remote-ish no-motor lake a few hundred miles northeast of Matt's home, my fishing buddy and I caught over 400 smallies. It was pretty much like 9 out of 10 casts. I was even able to target specific fish in a group at times. Best day of fishing ever. We stopped counting at 200 a piece. My best was a 22", but on the skinny side. His best was a fatter fish, but 21.5".

      But in the 2 weeks I had it I fished once prior to the day it broke.
      I've never had an issue with this brand over the yr I've used it. So hopefully it was a random issue

    Great video! Its been an exceptionally windy year in central wa. Not ideal kayak conditions for sure! 👍

      Finally this week we’re getting several days of good kayaking weather! Although I’m not getting my hopes up too much it seems like the wind forecast doubles from one day to the next.

    As a fly fisherman, I feel your pain with the wind. That alone can make or break a day on the water. Another great video - thanks for sharing!

    I gotta say I absolutely enjoy your kayak fishing videos. I wish I had smallmouth where I’m located in Arizona. But I got some pretty big largemouth in golf course ponds my biggest largemouth is about 5 1/2.

    That’s a cool looking lure. It was working good for you.
