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!
I’d highly recommend it! Fishing for redfish out of a kayak would be a blast!
Bro I’m jealous the places you fish at are so beautiful.
Nice video
And you seldom see another fisherman 🤔
@@6412mars A few videos ago there was a boat parked almost on top of him casting the same way he was lol
@@AlphaQHard I saw that..in general I meant👍
I believe he fishes north Dakota Montana and maybe minnesota
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.
Come up north! Clear water all around. Was seeing bottom in 15 ft the other day in wisconsin here
@@FindingAdventure that sounds fun lol. I’m actually visiting TN in a little bit. I need a remote job before I move anywhere lol. And one that pays well haha. You got any hook ups!?
@@thatfishingnoob nah lol you gotta stay here down south, it’s wayy better here haha. Reds and trout everywhere in the Galveston bay
Those first two bass’ combined weight is more than all the fish I’ve caught in my life.
That's funny. Thanks for the laugh.
Get out there! You will do it too!!
😅😅😅
6lbs?
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 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 TH-cam. 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
Totally agree!
This is the magic of Minnesota. Hopefully it is preserved for future generations to enjoy. What a privilege it is to have been born and raised here!
The previous reply was a scammer. I deleted it but don’t text the number and fall for the scam.
@@ndyakangler Thank you for deleting it. I've seen it before on other fishing channels, so I knew it wasn't legit. Plus, you don't do giveaways, right?
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 💪🏼
Good luck! It’s definitely a little sketchy but once you’ve got your bearings it’s like second nature and you’ll be ripping lips in no time. The first fish in the yak is going to be a great feeling. Tight lines!!
Be safe bro. And catch some tanks
Know the tide and/or current in the water you are fishing. Be sure to go out against it so that you can come in with it in case you feel tired from paddling at the end of your trip.
How was it? The first few times every year are always full on anxiety for me
Post a vid!
You are by far my favorite TH-cam fisherman. Keep up the good work, and great content!
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.
Love waking up to the peace of Ndyak fishing vids! Got my pb smallie 2 weeks ago, 18" in Ohio. I love/hate watching you catch 19's on the reg. Arrrggg! Lol. Love the vids bro. Thanks for sharing.
Congrats on the PB!
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!!
Can't catch any if there ain't none
When you whisper, I have the urge to whisper. Very calm and thrilling all in one
Jeez, as I sit here in my home state (Texas), facing the prospect of 104 degrees today, kayak in the barn, I'm vicariously enjoying watching this video. You are definitely one of the best fishermen on TH-cam!
It makes me want to move back to Minnesota with this current heat wave! No, I forgot about the winter! Stay cool this weekend!
Same here . Way to hot in Texas to even fish right now
@@deadbod9306 It's been smokin' in Florida lately, too. We need a good heavy rain to help cool things off a bit. 🫠
Bruh northern bass fishing is actually solid. I want to fish that beautiful lake. It’s so quiet just you and the outdoors. I love it
That’s the awesome part of where he’s fishing in Minnesota: there’s lots of small lakes that are under the radar. Almost no development no fishing pressure
That opening segment / fish was incredibly well done. Excellent work!
I can’t say enough about how much I enjoy your videos. I really love the way you present the fish 🐟 and show how beautiful they are! Big or small I love them all! The places you fish at are absolutely beautiful! Thank You so much. 🐟
Fishing clear water is the best! Fishing Lake Havasu (AZ) is great due to the clear water. Thx Mat!
You are a lucky man to live in such a beautiful place with big fish is what life is all about!!
Amen
Always a big fan of your content. Helps me get through the frozen minnesota winters. Thanks a million sir!
Late to the party; just watched. I can't believe you're fishing that rig in those weeds. You have supernatural skills or the patience of Job. back watching all your videos. Great stuff, THANK YOU!
Man that's the kind of bass fishing I dream about! Awesome video
Man how peaceful. So beautiful and calm. Love the content...feels like I'm right there with you!
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.
mmm best saturday you can have ? a new video from this awsome creator yaaay ! :)
Your my favorite TH-cam channel. Thanks dude! Your the inspiration for all the fishing I’ve done in the last 2 years. Which have been my best.
The wacky worm mustache joke good
The waters and scenery in your neck of the woods sure are beautiful!
Your videos have some of the healthiest looking fish I have ever seen, they all are pretty much thick with good colors
You are the bob ross of fishing. Love you man
The waters you fish make me wanna move up north. This is like heaven on earth.
Truly satisfying and useful ASMR.
You are the calmest fisher man ever, every other TH-camr screams when they catch a big fish,
Amazing video and beautiful water bro! Those were some healthy bass.
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. 😎🤘
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.
That’s a great idea!
Enjoying the vids with a good coffee outside in the morning 👌🏻
Best fishing videos on TH-cam hands down
This is exactly what im gonna do when I have the time/resources in my life to do the things I love. What a dream
Until then, I’ll be watching these videos living through you! So catch a big one!!!
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.
Just ordered some wacky worms:Watermelon Gold and Bumblebee Swirl. I'm a beginner to freshwater fishing but this looks like a fun way to improve. Thanks for the great video!
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.
@@ndyakangler Thanks for the tip. I was wondering about that center piece. I can't wait to experiment with those worms.
@@buffoonoutdoors those bumblebee swirl are money if you have chain pickerel in your waters ! One of my most productive colors . Tight lines
@@Oldbasshole I'm not sure yet if there are any. I'm mostly a saltwater guy but I'm slowly exploring freshwater. The bumblebee swirl definitely looks like it will work. Thank you for the info.
@@buffoonoutdoors I’m sure it’ll work ! Pickerel,perch,bluegill it just looks like a dying baitfish in the water. Cast it out n let it sink . The bait will do the rest . Good luck
Great video. Great scenery. Great fish. Thank you for posting
Great fishing techniques and video work/ editing. Thanks again. Keep ‘em coming.
Love the largemouth videos. Thank you for including them.
Another awesome video Matt! You set the bar high. Way to get after em’ and take us along!
Nice thing about living here in the RRV...the lakes nearby are awesome . Another great video.
those are some HOGS! 🤩 this clear water adventure 10/10! never stop these vids!
It's always fun watching you fish
This stuff is amazing. Just grab a snack and relax in his paradise.
That's so killer man! Love to see that wacky rig work. I need to try it more myself
It really looks like fishing paradise up north!
wacky worm mustaches hahaha
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…
This guy is the bob ross of fishing
I’m a firm believer in the wacky rig for site fishing clear water.
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!
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.
Lucky to fish in areas where not 100 people in the same area. So pretty🐟🐟
Dude, your videos are awesome. keep fishing 🎣🎣🎣🎣
“Giving out wacky worm mustaches!!!”
Fly fishing this lake must be an absolut blast!
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.
Everyone does!
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
AWESOME video's. Really enjoy watching you and the places you go. 🍻
i'd come from Syd Australia to come and do this fishing! LOVE!
Nice fish! I like the wacky worm technique! Great fishing!
Man what a place to fish . Beautiful bass too they had great color to em
Man, you’re the best! So inspiring and encouraging. Oh, and yes there’s a fair bit 😳 of product I’ve bought, on your success😉Living CA, where nothing’s native … you may inspire a move my friend! Wishing you all the success life has to offer!
Minnesota/North Dakota are great family moves meet the right people and you will prosper easily out her
Those are tanker bass! Can’t wait to get out in my yak for some toad bass!
this man is everything that i aspire to be in a kaya fisherman
that's not a rod - that's a brush!! This man is an artist!
This is my version of Saturday morning cartoons. Today will be a good day.
NDYak you rock! Love the channel and content! I'm here for the algorithm! Peace
Fishermen say the darn dear things. “Can i interest one of you in my whacky worm?” 🤣😂
Really good content bro I'm cheering u up from Mexico nice job and keep up the great effort u make on this UR THE BEST!!!
Beautiful, healthy largemouths!
Didn’t realize I wasn’t caught up on vids! Like Xmas in July baby! Had to get me a Lego chewy riding a smallie tee 😂😂😂💪
Thanks for the show
wacky worm has never let me down . Down here in north Louisiana
My day just got better
That looked like a super fun day! Wacky rig is a great fish catcher 👍
That is so very good. Excellent!
such a clear water man. great video!
If you did a collab with MarlingBaits, it would make my whole year
Wow, this is a dream fishing location
Wacky worm is the real deal man. Great vid
The sound of the birds is so nice
Love those Wacky Worm Mustaches!😎
SO CLEAR
Nice catches. Wacky worm always come through when bass are being picky.
Awesome fishing session. Your were surrounded by big bass. 👊
Absolutely beautiful!! Love watching your videos.
That clear water looks amazing. Everything is muddy where I'm at. And it's raining more right now
Ty!
Man...North Dakota is really a fishing wonderland!
This was actually in MN, I live right across the river in ND.
That water is more clear than my tap
Beautiful lake and some dandy fish!
Reminds me of some of the small lake's I go in Northern Ontario
Great video, as usual 👍👍👍🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I like the large mouth bass video. Can you do some soft bait top water fishing next time?
Quality fishing as usual
