I love content about bait modifications like this, it can & cannot be bought. Rather an invention combing two peace’s of tackle together. Fantastic. This will be passed down to my children as they’re just getting into fishing! Thank you Matt!
An underspin is a bait I've thrown quite a bit but I'd like to get more confident in. This tip seems like a good excuse to play around with one and maybe try out a few things.
One of the biggest reasons why I totally enjoy this channel is because I don't hear you saying "I can't believe I'm giving this secret away". I, and probably most people watching, are not going to be competing against you in some upcoming tournament! We are simply eager to learn and try new techniques that keep fishing fun. Heck, I fish almost exclusively in WI from a kayak and we probably never fish the same body of water. Keep doing what you are doing, make it educational, treat us to a peak at the kids fishing every so often, and don't say "oh man, I can't believe I'm telling you this....", Keep well, JJ
10 years ago i would have been yelling at myself to stop giving away tips and tricks but ive gotten over that and realized this is a great way to get others to catch fish and enjoy the sport i love. I appreciate your support and feedback! If you see me on the water come by and say hi!
Thanks Matt, I love the underspin tips. I'm going ice fishing at a great farm pond tomorrow and I just decided to bring some 3" Senkos because I think it would catch a bass there even though the ice.
Great stuff, thanks Matt! When I first subscribed I am not even sure there were 1,000 subscribers yet. You had a great channel even then, and it just keeps getting better.
Matt, what an awesome tip. I love fishing, my cool bait under spins, but adding that tungsten, for the sound is a great idea! I will have to give that a try. God bless!
Thanks Matt. Neet tip, I'm still perfecting my underspin tech and have not got to mods yet but thanks. Started using those Neko weights last year, man there sweet. Never fly out and do not distort the worm. I don't shaky head much since those weights.
Great mod.... there definitely seems to be an advantage to the higher pitched clinking of Tungsten vs lead. Fwiw, I've had good luck with tungsten jig heads.
Great mod tip Matt,and I remember 4-5 years ago buying the CoolBaits underspins for $3.00 and since their popularity has grown, they’re 6.99-$8.99 😮 and they seem to be back ordered the same as your GuppyHeads😜🍀🍀🍀
Everything used to be $3-$5....not anymore unfortunatly. If you are interested Tackle warehouse has them fully in stock! www.tacklewarehouse.com/Coolbaits_Lure_Co_The_Down_Under_Underspin/descpage-CLCTDU.html?from=MSFG
I like to attach a second blade to the same split ring on my underspins so the blades clack a little bit and it breaks up the flash and makes it more erratic, especially if you have two different color blades
@@MattStefanFishing I will try it, I am assuming that you would have to super glue them in as there isn't much plastic in the hook groove for a rattle there.
That’s really juicy juice!!! I’m trying this for real ….. the Matt Stefan belly banger or Matt Stefan underspin tungsten down under or Australian underpin mod
HIGHLY reccomend adding a Ryugi TC bait keeper to the shank of a coolbaits underspin, keitechs last so much longer and dont slide down, no need for glue either. Check em out!! Also, killer content as always, Matt!! Goodluck this season!
@@MattStefanFishing i will generally bend the original hook keeper down just a tad so it can slide over the top of it just a bit, then when it melts its got a nice bolster for the keeper. They sell them on TW. Tight lines!
Thanks 4 a great tip. Finally something I haven't heard of or tried, and it really makes sense, seems to me it will work better than just adding a rattle, I love it ❤️ ...jimi
I'm hoping we're unfrozen tomorrow 🙏! I like yalls Declassified series. When u get to a million subs u can quit dragging that boat around the country!!
@@MattStefanFishing I first experienced this with a cheap tailspinner I bought on eBay. Both blades were on same split ring. I've tried different shapes and arrangements and the little clatter seems the same and gets differing results on walleye in cold winter water.
Got my first Cool Baits underspins this year for Christmas. Didn't know they were that popular, good to know! Caught a 23in Brown Trout on one last week.
the tournament days are Wednesday - friday February 8-10. I assume weigh-in starts around 3:00 PM so Id say thats the best time to get to meet me and say hi to any other anglers
Maybe the tungsten sounds like broken bones and the fish think it's injured. I've said this before and I'm not positive, but I think all clacking sounds or rattles are imitating an injured fish or crayfish etc.
Hey Matt, I was wondering if you have tried this system on an A-Rig? Do you think if you had 3 baits that made that Tungsten noise from the blades and the extra flash would it be to much? Thanks for you time Eric
As usual, the weights in the sizes you talk about are all gone. I hope when you come out with your hover hook that it is in sizes 1 and 1 ought. Anything smaller is just too small.
Now your talking, Table Rock is my home lake and I can see the potential for this to be fantastic, Thanks so much!!!
Have fun!
Thanks Matt! I am excited to incorporate this into my underspins
Have fun!

Yep you are the tackle tinkerer. 👍😁 Neat little trick, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching
This is a great tip! Thanks Matt. Rooting for you to crush it this year!
Fingers crossed!

Very clever. Shad make a higher pitch sound depending on their activity so your modification makes perfect sense. Thanks
very interesting! thanks for sharing!
Dude this is so gold. Beaver just happens to be my home lake man. Thanks for these tips Matt!
beaver is one of my favorite lakes in the country
Thank you Matt. Years ago Matt and Tim advised me to drag the cool baits and let it tinkle off the rocks. This appears to up that game.
Glad to help!
This is a great tip and great story leading up to this modification. Thanks Matt!!
thanks!
Brilliant! I have not ever tried to make a clicker on an underspin, yet I use head-knocker buzzbaits. Well done!
Thank you!
I pour my own but there isn’t a better underspin than Cool baits.
Makes me happy that they are finally getting known on the east coast. Great video
Right on
Underspin is a great year round bait. Solid modification Matt, thank you for the video
You bet!
Thanks Matt, I love the underspin tips. I'm going ice fishing at a great farm pond tomorrow and I just decided to bring some 3" Senkos because I think it would catch a bass there even though the ice.
i bet it could!!

Matt's making music underwater ** 🎵🎼🎶📻📯🔊🔊🎺🎻🎷🎷🎸 Cayuga killer
haha!
That is an awesome but simple modification
so easy!
This is genius! Best of luck in Florida!
thanks!
Awesome video and tip!! Gonna try it!! Thanks g or all you do, it's much appreciated! Tight Lines!

This is how you do a proper video. The backstory leads to the video theme.
thanks!
Good stuff here. Will definitely try this after ice out. Ha.
Have fun!
Great tip, Matt! Thanks!
You bet!
Matt thanks for the tip.
Any time!
awesome tip bub...can't wait to try it out.
Have fun
Amazing how much sense this makes, is there any way that you know to add sound to a fluke type bait, such as a rattle or some other way?
you can buy glass rattle inserts to put in a fluke
@@MattStefanFishing I will try it, I am assuming that you would have to super glue them in as there isn't much plastic in the hook groove for a rattle there.
Great tip! Definitely giving this a try.👍
go for it!
Killer tip. We appreciate you 🙌
thanks for watching!
This is why I like short arm spinnerbaits too , cause when fished with a Colorado blade it clicks on the hook
yep!
Another great mod recommendation, thanks!
Thanks!
Awesome, thanks Matt!
You bet!

I'm hoping we're unfrozen tomorrow 🙏! I like yalls Declassified series. When u get to a million subs u can quit dragging that boat around the country!!
haha! i dont see that happening
I tried putting a little glow stick inside my soft plastics with great success i highly recommend trying something different
awesome!
To your point of noise, have you tried two blades on the same split ring? Gives an interesting rattle.
i have and i do like it but find the blades need to be spaced perfectly
@@MattStefanFishing I first experienced this with a cheap tailspinner I bought on eBay. Both blades were on same split ring. I've tried different shapes and arrangements and the little clatter seems the same and gets differing results on walleye in cold winter water.
Good one 👍
Thanks ✌️

Nice!!
Great looking bait will have to give it a try. Thank you for sharing 👍 Also when & what time would be best to come over to lake 0 ???
the tournament days are Wednesday - friday February 8-10. I assume weigh-in starts around 3:00 PM so Id say thats the best time to get to meet me and say hi to any other anglers
Great idea . Thanks Matt 38K nice
You bet!
Great idea
Thank you! 😊
Thanks!
Thank you!
That would be awesome on a spinnerbait too if I could figure out a way to.👍👍👍👍👍
ive been working on something but its not good enough to share. needs to be refined
Now this is some serious juice!!!!
it works great!
Great tip
thanks!
Maybe the tungsten sounds like broken bones and the fish think it's injured. I've said this before and I'm not positive, but I think all clacking sounds or rattles are imitating an injured fish or crayfish etc.
interesting thought
Hell yeah! That’s a great move
it works great!
That is something already. Sometimes I put a worm rattle in swimbaits on a swim jig, underspin and in texas rigged flukes and swimbaits.
Nice!
Interesting tip what was the water clarity ?
probably 6ft
I'm going to give it a shot, but I'm going to use a steel screw cause I'm kinda cheap lol
ok, but just know it wont make the same sound
I understand that tungsten is harder,if it don't produce I'm going to buy the tungsten
How did you notice suspended fish in the drains?
saw them chasing bait
Find me a better fishing channel… simply can’t be done. 💪💪💪
Wowsa! Thanks!
What size nail weight do u uses? Does it matter?
doesnt really matter. sometimes i go heavy to get mybait deeper. but generally the smaller size if im just trying to make sound
Brass screws prob would work the same.
worth a try!
Cool 😎 thanks !
You bet!
Awesome info Matt, question tho, on those keitech jigs, which weight do you prefer this time of year?
I love the 3/8 and 1/2 oz. just depends on the conditions
Hey Matt,
I was wondering if you have tried this system on an A-Rig? Do you think if you had 3 baits that made that Tungsten noise from the blades and the extra flash would it be to much?
Thanks for you time
Eric
I have not but love the idea and im sure you can get it to work on an a rig! give it a try!
The Stefan Clack'r™
haha!
Hey Matt, what size of the underspin do you use in this video? I’m not sure if it was mentioned in the video
this was a 3/16 oz
Have you tried this with a lead nail weight? If so, does it not work as well? Is it just the noise or must it be tungsten ?
the lead doesnt create much sound. I've had significantly better luck with tungsten.
Casey Ashley win the bass master classic 2015 with underspin
yep!
Genius!
thanks!
👍
thanks!
I heard, should wait till the video is over. Lol
haha!
As usual, the weights in the sizes you talk about are all gone. I hope when you come out with your hover hook that it is in sizes 1 and 1 ought. Anything smaller is just too small.
will actually be a size 1/0 and 3/0 to start with
i've been adding rattles to swim baits for yrs....DON"T TELL ANYONE...lol
shhhhhh

Cheers!
