I love and co-experience your joy of fishing. Brings back many memories. I'm 74 and mostly blind, so I'm really enjoying the sound. You bring joy to my heart. Always upbeat, even on a slow day. Gotta love it...

Hey Matthew, I wanted you to know that this past Wednesday, the 27th, my wife and I caught 12 Pompano, 8 which came on the new , Bummy Stick!!! We gave 6 of them to other fishing families who had caught nothing. This all happened between 6 and 10 in the morning. We love that rod!!! We were fishing with Shrimp and Green Fish Gum. Thanks for all your help on learning. Keep the videos coming!

I love the message about returning to college and doing what you love. Keep it up Bum!

Great video glad you posted keep them coming thanks

My husband and I stopped and as you how the fish where biting on the pier Thursday 🙂 it was so nice meeting you!!! Thanks for making our day

Mercy I love your videos! I’ve always fished while I’m at the beach... BUT, I only get one beach vacation a year and watching your videos has helped me catch so many more fish!

Looking forward to getting back to surf fishing in OBA. The winter was pretty slow. Enjoyed the video.

I needed to hear this, thanks man!

I have been following you for years now and every year before my beach trip you get me PUMPED for surf fishing!! Keep it up brother! Hope to get out there with you sometime!!

Glad I bumped into you at DQ yesterday. Really enjoy the vids. Keep them coming.

Nice job as always!! Thank you very much for the quality content!!

I really enjoy your channel. I am glad I found it. Your family is amazing. You are a lucky man. God Bless you and yours.

So fun when you are on the the nice Specks, grew up fishing for them and still love too!

Beach fishing absolutely love the information I get watching your videos

Great job Matthew. Really enjoyed the video with Salt-Strong. By far my favorite fishing technique is trout in the surf on top-water. I live 4 hrs. from closest saltwater and can’t get there as much as I want so I’m kinda at the mercy of the conditions when I do get down. Keep bummin’ ! Peace

Awesome topwater morning! My favorite way to fish early morning too! Great video!

Some great fish, thanks for sharing, keep safe and take care.

GREAT episode! Really enjoyed your enthusiasm. I've noticed lots of stud trout this year in the gulf states. Caught my PB last month.

Excellent video. I got to find the right combination of lure/line to catch those trout like those here in the NC surf or ICW.

Great job BBB!!!! Loved the video!!!

Dang good video, thanks for sharing the information and instructions ✅💥✌️

Like the gear info. I have been a bucket,7.8 St.Croix /various 2500series reels + a ziplock bag of basic tackle in the pocket fir so long. I DK what I am looking at in the tackle shop anymore. Getting older. Putting a cart together.thx.

Great video nothing more exciting then topwater those were some awesome trout would love to see you break your PB this year love how excited you get when you're fishing it makes your videos so fun to watch👍👍

GREAT day on the beach! Thanks for sharing!

What a hoot catching them on top water lures. My favorite way to catch one of my local species. Can't wait for it to start here. Great video. Enjoyed watching you catch them 'em.

Great video BB those were all fabulous fish, even the fowl hooked ones

We just booked a family vacation in Fort Morgan for next June! I've been taking a lot of tips from you, Brant, CMR, and Bearded Brad so my son and I can have some success fishing from the beach. Looking forward to more videos!

Love the top water action. Bucket list fish and catch. Can’t wait to be back on salt water this fall

I do as lot trout fishing on the Gulf Coast mostly drift fishing grass beds or oyster bars my favorite lure is a vixen kinda hard to find nothing better than a top water bite early and late in the day. Enjoyed your video.

great fishing- beach looks beautiful!

Great video! Days like that are way to rare! Have a great weekend!

I've caught a trout identical to that 22" one you caught. What a fight! Something about a trout in the surf, it's so different from that bay.

Hey there brother I’ve been fallowing you for about a week now and have watched so many of your videos and have love every one of them. I’ll be in that area in June and going to try beaching fishing for the first time ever and salt water. I live in Oklahoma and that the only kinda fishing I know. Thank you so much for not only showing us your love of fishing but also giving info for people like me to learn how and what we need to get to to do this

Hey Matt, recently I took advantage of your free promotion on the Waterland glasses. Thanks for introducing me to these glasses. Keep up the informative content. Always enjoy watching

Matt, I wanna thank you for all your hard work and dedication on these videos. Every video presents me with something to learn and I am headed down this week confident that I can at least get on some whiting! 😉

Nice fishing matey and nice you let them go and release them , yes l know most catch and cook but nice to see you let them go

I love these surf videos !

Awesome video!!! Know it was a lot of fun on that top water bite!!! Keep up the great content !

Love this! So much fun to watch!

Great video as always and I read your comments and people absolutely love you for the way you’re so enthusiastic about fishing and I truly have to agree with them. Keep it up I enjoy every single one of these videos. Is there a reason why you like to use blue fishing line?

Great day on the beach. Some really nice trout!! You found the honey hole. Always enjoy your videos!!

Cheers fur the vid ye got some stoating fish luv whit ye'er daeing keep it up.

Moving to Palm coast fl. Looking to start surf fishing. Love your content.

Just bought that exact rod! What a coincidence haha, you’re the only channel I like to watch :). Thank you for your videos, man

Another great morning for you keep catching. I'll keep watching even when your only fishing g and not catching.

your videos are like refreshing to me every time i get in a slump in life/fishing your videos seem to help lift me out of it thank you matt

Where are you fishing exactly? So much fun!!!

Great video. Going to give top water a try the end of June down in Ft Myers Beach. Supposed to be Jacks around that time of year. Do you think that moonwalker will interest them? Would love to catch a Jack from the beach. Thanks man!

Just picked up my first Bama pompano rig today!

the trout bite seems to be great all over the map and quality as well i caught several good healthy trout the other day planned to in the morning as well

My favorite show in a while. Big Trout in the surf, thanks BB!!!

This video reminded me of your early ones all about fishing. Love it

What was bringing in trout to the beach? Fished incostal several times and found trout in grass.

Hears an idea that's worked for me in the past. Tie on a popper and put a 2' leader off the rear hook with a jig. It's like a popping cork and jig but the popper catches fish too. I like a light jighead or just a hook in a soft plastic body on the trailer. That trick has worked for me in Florida and on the beach in Costa Rica so it should work for you too. A little fish gum on the jig would make it better.

Much love God bless from Morganton NC!! Love the content and love when u get the wife involved. She makes me laugh at how green she is fishing and so girly lol 😂

Great Video!

Great video! It hard to beat a topwater surf bite! I always throw a one knocker spook, but I like the idea of the big single hooks if that moonwalker is weighted enough to throw in the wind!

Great video! I actually think singles hooks on lures hold fish much better. Where trebles often skin hook fish single hooks are more likely to get in one side and out the other. They don't end up all over a fishes face or in their eyes either.

🤘🏻😎🤘🏻 Awesome stuff dude

Nice trout fishing I'm fishing strippebass now here in new Brunswick canada

DUDE that was awesome, solid fish!!

Im with you matt i love top water fishing have the excitement is the strike just watching them hit it is most the fun. Great video

That 22incher was nice, your laugh afterwards was great, no doubt having fun....beautiful, beautiful area you have to fish. Love your vids, enjoy sir!!

Nice trout !

I just got the Moonwalkers on a BOGO from Salt Strong. Can't wait to get to the surf to try them! Padre island.... Let's go!

Love it!!

I just watched your video. It was great seeing the top water action. We were in Gulf Shores fishing on the beach at the State park a couple weeks ago. We were using the yellow shrimp bait and I was using a silver spoon. No luck. I was hoping to see you and Bearded Brad. Where do you fish the beach at?

Hi Matt very nice trout in the surf on top water my grandfather showed me how to top water fish for trout in Brevard County FL when I was young his largest trout was over 30" don't remember the weight. He caught it at a camp ground and park at Sebastian Inlet the google map shows the camp ground and park is gone you can still see the bare ground where it was it is now part of the state park. Always love your videos.

Great morning of fishing Matt! We could possibly see more of the top water action with a hat cam since you are kind of short! 😎

Cool video! Gotta love that Topwater bite! Caught my Pb Trout on a Chartreuse Mirrolure Poppa Dog, 30 inch 9 lbs. Keep throwing those topwaters, You will get Your 25 plus!

Nice Job, i only have couple times catch fish with lure lol, no fish want my lure. Any recommend rod to fair with my Penn battle 4000 Hs?

Was wondering if you did charters on the beach? If so where do I go to schedule a trip

Were you walking the beach with the topwater or were the trout holding in a particular location? Great video sir

Mountain ogre here, only been Ocean fishing once and have a question, are ocean Trout as good as our Brook Trout or Rainbows in our mountain springs and ponds?

I really like surf fishing in the Texas Gulf shore. Sometimes you never know what you'll come up with.

Great day !!!nice spot bro🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

The swells and weather have not been favorable in Texas for surf fishing recently we only get that nice water when the waves aren’t churning our darker sand (side note: can’t ever get a top water bite out here)

On my way! Literally!! Pensacola bound, let's goooo!!!

Nice spot casting my friend

A very demanding job, and the pressures of life carried me away from surf fishing for the past 20 years! But last year I discovered your channel, immediately subscribed, and your love of fishing has brought me back - I upgraded my equipment and started fishing again. I paid close attention to your tackle and techniques, and caught some very nice fish from the surf (who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks?) Missed out on your bummy stick last year but ordered one earlier this year, it is rigged and ready to go. I will be 75 later this month, cannot move like I used to, but once again I am rejuvenated and raring to go! Like you, I plan to retrofit my Fish n Mate cart with balloon tires, because pulling it 1/4 mile to where I fish wears me out! We will head to the NC coast tomorrow and I can not wait to get lines in the water. Thank you so much for giving back thru your love of fishing. Keep doing it and we'll do our best to stay bummy here in NC!

I live on the gulf coast would be cool to go out there with you I met you like 4-5 years ago 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽

What can I say? Awesome!

Did I miss your description of the “structure” you were fishing?

Question for you, how come no one puts measure marks on their rods anymore? We used to use auto paint, model paint or fingernail polish and start at the very butt of the rod and mark of every half inch up to whatever length you thought you'd need or on the larger rods mark up to 5 or 6 feet. great job for those boring winter months and once done it usually lasts a very long time! (Note, use a VERY fine paint brush to get your marks as accurate as possible).

Is the water shallow there like in Gulfport? I’d love to do the same close to home!

SWEET!!!

Man I would love to come fish with you sometime. I see the bama coast in my future.

I enjoyed the video. If you don’t mind, what are the specs of the rod you were using.

Great video, nice trout catch!!

I wonder what you can do to increase casting distance? Add weight or decrease line size? Longer rods?

where can I get a good surf rod and reel

Nice catches, you have such a variety and the sea is flat . I am from south africa, you guys check out this guy , zoo look fishing

Bro what a sick day!

My favorite way to fish the surf!!! How soon does it make sense to start throwing big poppers?

What go pro do you use ? I love your videos

Nice.

Anytime you can feel strikes almost immediately, regardless of a hook set, it's a promising day. At some point, you'll get that bite, which can be all you need to trigger a frenzy.😎🔥🔥😎

I keep buying the lures you recommend even though I’m in Ohio 🤣. Great content man and feel like I’m fishing in my living room!

Epic 🎣

Those were nice trout.
