You're like the Bob Ross of fishing. So calm and soft spoken. I love it.

This has got to be my favorite fishing channel by all means. Goes great with some morning coffee as well

I honestly do not understand how he isn’t up there with the fishing KZfaqrs that have millions and millions of subscribers? What are we doing we need to get his subscriber count up! His content along with the quality of content he creates is bar none

He’s back at it again!

Definitely a good filler for when I am not fishing. No nonsense, just fishing and it’s like we are all there with him like two guys fishing. Love it.

This dudes so much better than those famous fishing youtubers with like millions of subscribers

So grateful for you, Matt. You helped me discover the BWCA because of those two videos you posted and now I make 4 to 6 trips up there per summer. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me find a little bit more of myself.

I fish for last 20 years and I love it. But what makes me watch this guy all the time is that he is so calm and soft spoken... Ken Block of fishing...

I get 1 hour for my lunch everyday at work. This is always how I spend my 1 hour. Quality content and relaxing. Best fishing channel on KZfaq by far.

Glad to see you and the channel evolving helping share the joy of kayak fishing with other people so they can get out there and have fun.

This is officially my favorite fishing channel. I’ve watched about 10 of your videos and I liked everyone of em lol. How do you manage to stay so calm? I get exited over a dink 😂

I love how quick that kayak gets going

I just wanted to say we love ya bro & thanks for all the great content. Hidden gem in a gloom world.

When you said “get the net” when you got the little guy it reminded me of when I would go fishing with my dad on Lake Erie. He would say that whenever he caught a blue gill or perch. We would laugh so hard! I miss those days.

You are the Bob Ross of fishing sir. Well done.

I live in the NY State Adirondak's. Thank Sir for your insight and inspiration. Bought my Hobie Compass 2019 to explore and fish the almost unbelievable number of waterways. You and your videos help me get a fish every time I go on an adventure. Hope you get to love your Compass as much as I do mine. Peace and Tranquility!

Love the new kayak! My girlfriend loves your voice, and I must say, it is rather soothing lol 😂. I think you have a future in voice-overs and doing audible versions of books. Good luck 🍀 fishing this year brother !!

‘Sometimes you gotta jiggle that handle’ has a different meaning here in East Tennessee 😂😂 Great video.

A most entertaining video with the largemouth in a wonderful lake. I do appreciate the thorough description of the gear and especially that of the rigged lure. I hate those other videos one can find in the internet with lots of screaming and “gimme five” where the anglers seem to forget that some of us want to learn something about the method used in the catch along with enjoying a nice quiet scenery. Oftentimes they even deny us a close up of the fish beauty or, even worst, don’t treat the animal properly before releasing it. Certainly not the case with NDYakAngler. That's why, I guess, many people say that they fish vicariously through Matt.

Cool... pedal power... heat shrink wacky rig... I've caught ONE bass on a wacky rig! Haha.. I'll have to try that more. Thanks for the floating adventure!

The Bob Ross of YT bass fishing, between him and Greg Blanchard, I love these videos. Love the new hobie, I just got the pelican Catch Mode, being able to stand up makes all the difference.

Thanks, Matt… love northern largemouth fishing!!

He's like the Bob Ross of fishing. Love it 👌

I live in central Oklahoma and I sure enjoy your content. Every video is relaxing and you catch beautiful fish! I've never seen a pike before and they sure are pretty! Today's video and all those bass are ah-mazing!

Great content every time. I’ve fished from a tarpon 120 since 2004;Still going strong. Considering a pedal drive as well

The fish are having a meeting: “It’s that guy in the kayak with the calming voice again, we should visit him.” 🤣😂🤣

Great video of my new go-to rig in weedy lakes. It's good for many different scenarios and I tell anyone who will listen. Like my cousin told me..this will change your life..in fishing anyway. Glad you got the new Hobie out there Matt. Blessings

"They can't say No to the wacky worm!" I love hearing the classic one liners! Really neat to see the new Hobie on the water. I like the breakdown you give on it. You totally nailed it, there is no "one" perfect kayak for all fishing. The right tool for the right job. Another classic video. Thank you!

Thanks again, Matt, for taking us along. Glad you are liking the new boat. One of the things that has impressed me is that you've maintained that Tarpon through all these years. The hatch is sun faded, it shows the years of use, and love. Enjoy the Hobie. Just got a Crescent Lite Tackle 2 for Father's Day. Can't wait to get it slimed!

I always saw people using wacky worms on KZfaq and this was the video that made me try it and I am so thankful because I caught my PB of 6.324 lb

Thanks, Matt, for another great day of bass fishing. Those were all pretty nice fish! I like your new Hobie, I hope it gives you many, many pleasurable fishing adventures, as I'm sure it will! Take care and be safe.

I would love to see some videos of you rigging up your new kayak. It's awesome to see what you did with your old one!

I hooked into a few decent bass at my favorite pond with a combination of bluegill and perch colored whopper ploppers. The top water strikes never get old.

I enjoy watching your videos. You are probably the coolest KZfaq fisherman out there. You don't create drama and yelling, still being one of the most efficient anglers on YT. Even though I make fishing lures and sell them all around the world, I can rarely go fishing my self, due to my work and having a disabled child that I take care of at the same time most every day. Your videos are like a therapy for me. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Liking the new whip. Absolutely love fishing clear water with wacky. That clicking drag on the Zillion is such a great feature.

Wow Matt that kayak is so cool never seen one in action before

Beautiful country and perfect day really for being on the water. And you had it to yourself seemingly. Nice video dude.

Another great and relaxing day on the water, tearing up the fish! Great video!🎣👊

Man, that yak is sick. It’s also interesting to see you catch green ones haha. Good stuff sir.

dude watching these videos made me obsessed with kayak fishing. Ever since I found you I've had the chance to fish out of the kayak a lot during the summer and it's been absolutely amazing. Keep going bro these are the best fishing videos I've ever seen

Thanks for taking us along on another fun trip.

Can’t wait for bass to open here in Southern Ontario, I’ve been pike fishing from my kayak, I’m seeing huge large and small mouth everywhere, catching lots of pike to keep me occupied.

I love your channel! I followed many channels for years, but your's is one of only a couple I still follow. I fish out of several Hobie's and I have always found that a rudder upgrade like Boonedox is really worth it. I've not fished a Compass but I have had several Outbacks. The stock rudder was always too soft for me, even with regular tension adjustments. Keep up the great content!

that lake looks so big and clean.wacky is the way 2 go

I just found your channel (thanks algorithm, you got it right 😂) nothing like winding down the day with you getting some really good bass of the whacky! Whacky is my go to when the going is tough!!

Another great video, I’m interested in the Hobie Compass. I’m gonna research them on the internet. Great day of fishing 🎣! Laughed at the little pike and little bass. Thanks,I enjoyed it as usual.

I’ve seen the thumbnails thinking it was more talk than action, but this is more than the thumbnail. Great fishing.

Another great video thank you for taking us along once again man 🔥🔥

Yooooooooooooooo BassMang 👋🤓 5:50 that sounds like a line from the movie Shawshank Redemption 😲... lmfaooooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you know i was thinkin that too, when i seen the flippers go underneath.. ithought, this man's loves fishin the shallows, wont those flippers get in the way of that... around 10:45 you started talkin about it .. 🤓 what a BEEEEEEE-UUUUUU-TEEEEEEEE-FULLLLLL day out for you to do some fishin on a big lake eh... thx for takin me along on your excursion.. be safe an see ya next time bro 👋😎

I’m really enjoying your videos and you have my attention respect and support.

Highly recommend the compass for bass fishing and yes very stable even in waves onces you get the stance. Wish I had the reversible drive.

Once again another enjoyable video from you! The bite was on for sure.

Matt, That little one was big at heart. We have a small lake here in South Central PA, that I can only catch bass with a wacky worm. They hit early morning right up on the bank and generally under low hanging trees and mossy areas. To date, these are the most finicky bass I've encountered.

Great job with the wacky, brother! Always fun watching you out on the yaks. Keep on tossin"!

Nice kayak upgrade! That Mirage drive is incredible, I use my wife's Hobie Lynx for river fishing, and it maneuvers like a dream.

This was great watching you catch these beautiful bass. The lake the clear water reminds me of wher my dad and i used to go up in michigan every summer , before he passed away. Those bass do look really fat and healthy, nice fish. Thank you for posting, i enjoyed it. Take care.😊

Thanks. Your work is appreciated. Enjoyable entertainment.

The pedal-drive is a game changer! Congrats on the new kayak and a great video as always!!

Thanks for taking us along...

FINALLY!!!!! Ever since I saw you post this when you bought it, I've been excited for you to get out on it. Congratulations!!

YES!!! Been wearing them out this summer on the wacky rig as well, lovingthe frequent posts!!💪💪💪

Great to see the new kayak in action!

Nice fish on the wacky. I really enjoy your videos, they make me want to go fishing!

Welcome to the peddle drive family! It's a game changer for range and more time with the lure in the water instead of on the paddle. Looking forward to the new adventures....

New kayak looks great. Nice catches too…I definitely want to save more worms so I’ll try what you’re doing w the shrink wrap… thanks … catch you on your next video!

Awesome new Hobie Matt! 😎👊🤙

I love all your videos so relaxing and fun!

Great video! Love the new Hobie. I purchased a Radar 115 with pedals last fall. I hadn’t planned on getting pedals, but couldn’t pass up the deal. They are a game changer! I will never own another kayak without pedals.

Hi Matt, sweet nice new kayak, and it seems that the bass here in ky love that wacky worm too!

Thanks for not setting the hook like a moron. Just good clean fishing

Thanks for the info on your wacky rig set up...definitely going to give it a try. Amazing bass day bro!!

Thanks for the show!

I fished there last summer in my ranger and man what a pain launching the boat lol one day I stroked some serious bigs last couple other trips it was super slow.

Thankyou sir! Have a great weekend 🤟🏾💜✌🏾

Awesome video! The wacky rig works so well! Especially in pressured waters. I've been getting into throwing big swimbaits and a lot of times i only get follows, but nothing that a wacky rig can't solve! If i see a follow but the fish won't eat the swimbait, I'll toss in a wacky rig and the bass takes that most of the time.

I love how quiet it is there.

Carolina rig, never fails.

I love when small fish go after bait that is as big as they are. Got a chuckle out of that perch.

Caught my first 17” largemouth on my pond the other day on a wacky worm! They do really well at targeting all parts of the water column

Got my Hobie Compass in March and have been enjoying it ever since. Locally it’s all reservoir fishing here in north Texas so it has no issues and I have gone through some decent weeds with it as well. You are a master with a paddle but I think you will like the hands free approach as well. Love the channel and can’t wait to see how you rig your Compass

this gives me a taste of home while im living in Thailand. thanks for that

You're a better man than I am-it would kill me not trying a Pop-r, or some kinda topwater bait. Thanks for another great fishing trip Matt. God bless.

Man do I wish we had that kind of bite & fishery down here in South Jersey 😂

I used a friend’s Hobbie a couple summers ago and I really liked it but I bought an Old Town 106 PDL because it’s easier to back pedal for reverse instead of having to pull the cable for reverse with the Mirage system. They both have their pros and cons I suppose. Great video Matt. I love catching those bass like that with the rubber worms. I look forward to the next video. 👍

Hobie's are really nice but expensive. I still like my Old Town topwater 120 paddle boat. It serves it's purpose. Good looking Yak Matt. Nice set up. Love your videos young man !👍👍

Ah so peaceful! Thank you for this!

Welcome to the hobie life man! Always wondered when you were gonna upgrade lol. ❤

happy to see you finally upgraded your yak...keep up the great content

Next to fishing myself - your videos are the best 👍

All those bass were built so good. Must be some good food sources there.

You make a great point. With all the grass in my area i normally fish weedless. However I have been throwing wacky and I seem to get those that wouldn't bite weedless. great video

Oh man, a kayak upgrade!!! I'll miss the sound of the paddle, but I'm glad to see you're able to make the investment into a higher end boat. Just got my first legend tournament rod because you speak highly of them and I love it! Maybe I'll upgrade to a hobie in a few years if it works out for you. Your content mirrors my style of fishing almost exactly. Thank you for your videos, brother!

Nice day of fishing! Sure a lot of fun to watch

Nice kayak!! You caught some quality fish on the wacky worm!!👍love you videos 👍👍

great video as always, awesome kayak dude. I hope to one day get one of my own. Haven't out the wacky rig down myself

Nice to see you on the Hobie, I love my Outback. I still use my paddle yak at times

The Bob Ross Of Fishing Videos Love Em 😁💪

Awesome video as always bro 😎 keep grinding em out man

I like it wacky, too! 😁 But really, love your fishing content, keep it up! If you do an episode where you just whisper, you can call it ASMR.

Thank you, for being you
