This is like the perfect fishing video. None of these obnoxious cuts with music and editing, just pure nature and proper angling.

Those nature sounds are relaxing, especially during these difficult times.

Post Card Gorgeous Flat Calm morning, Lake to yourself, Loons calling in the background, and Stout Green Bass choking the Rat ~ Life is good my friend. Nicely Done Sir.

Saw the notification pop up and I thought. What a great way to start the morning with a relaxing video during self isolation. About to hit the river in a few hours to self isolate

One of the best on KZfaq. No fancy headlines, just bagging giants as usual.

Jesus christ, the sounds of nature in this video are awesome!

Good coffee and content from the best kayak angler on KZfaq makes for a great morning during these weird times

I'm on a virtual university class, due to all this emergency of Covid-19, and had the chance to escape fishing for some minutes, just watching this video!!! Thanks ^^

Catching the fish early morning hours, on a duck the loon and an eagle. Awesome

For me, one of the best parts of kayak fishing is feeling more at one with nature. There are times when I just sit there and try to take it all in. Your videos do a great job capturing that feeling. Great job and thank you.

What a great way to spend a morning while it’s snowing and 45 degrees colder than yesterday. Please keep the videos coming.

You sait it: "I'm in Heaven right now" The scenery, the sounds and sights of Nature, the warm calm weather of that beautiful late August morning, the dim light through the overcast sky...and if that wasn't enough you get 4 tanks of gorgeous largies. A zen experience. A reason for gratitude to God for being healthy and being granted such a wonderful fishing morning which, undoubtedly, will be engraved in your memory and that you'll recall with inmense joy in the years to come. We spaniards would say "¡Un día de pesca acojonante!."

"Mornings like this are what kayak fishing dreams are made of" Lol you got that right. That was a perfect looking morning. I went yesterday and it was like 48 degrees and really windy but I still caught some bass and came home with enough crappie for supper. 👊👍

Water so clear you could watch the duck swimming under water...amazing! Nice vid... nice chunky fish!

When the loon popped up it startled me. What beautiful morning with the lake all to yourself. It was sort of funny when you said “ with the rat this all we’re gonna catch” . Like it’s a bad thing. Lol another great video Matt.

Oh yess Good morning, brother! Thanks for helping this quarantine to be more bearable!

I love that you just let the sound of nature be in your videos, instead of a music sound track. Got to get me a spro rat. Probably great for pike too🙏

That's what my heaven would be , awesome adventure Brother thanks for taking us along . You should do another Lego lure challenge , like a Darth Vader vs Yoda . The Dark side vs the Light lol my kids loved the Chewbacca lure and they always ask me if you have loaded another video like that . You have multi age group subscribers at this household . All the best my Friend

Wow...that's a day. I could use that day, a lot of us could right now. Thanks for bringing us along!!!

Wow! What a beautiful day you had! I absolutely love when you fish there. However, we burst out laughing when that loon popped up out of nowhere. Niiiice bass. Thank you for sharing your day on the water with us. ✌️😊

Watching and hearing the loons was an added bonus to another great video! Thanks again for sharing a bit of heaven with us, especially during such challenging times! You’re the best! 🎣

Ya know.? Your voice for fishing vids is very fitting. There are so many crazy high energy fishing youtubers now and you are by far my favorite to watch. Your calmness suits this sport so well for the screen. Great commentary, great fishing, great content. Thank you.

And some people say God doesn’t exist. If he doesn’t, who made that lake? Absolutely gorgeous!

Peaceful and beautiful, got me in the mood for some more fishing. Just bought my first kayak to get to places my boat can't go.

낚시를 좋아하고 항상 당신을 구독하고있는 한국인입니다 정말 멋져요 (I am a Korean who likes fishing and always subscribes to you. It's really cool.)

Everything about this video was enjoyable...The clarity of the water is amazing !!

I really enjoy your videos. You fish in some of the most beautiful lakes and rivers to be found anywhere. Thanks for taking us along!!

Ah, my daily dose of one of my favorite fishing video makers. You should apply to a radio station. You have a good voice!

Wow, what a beautiful spot. Those were some tanker bass. Love North Dakota, great video!

This might be one of my favorites so far. Awesome video!

Thanks, I needed that right now. Be safe up there. The old professor

Wow. Great video Matt. The sound effects are awesome. So are the large bass.

I can't believe how incredibly beautiful the scenery is where your fishing

Would love that to be my personal 'On The Beach' scene as in the end of days. Idyllic.

Matt, whenever you post a video, I am watching it. Thank you!

Would love to catch a bass on a rat lure. Awesome stuff as always looks amazing out there.

Geez that rat looked so big at first.. then you hold it up by that first bass and it looked a bit smaller.. Yeah, what a shame.. big fish.. The things you have to put up with huh? Oh darn it! Not only is this one big but feisty.. What bad luck! Oh man!!! I love the sound of the loon on that lake in the morning.. It just touches you... soul deep... Heaven is right.. Well thanks for the share.. it is to bad all you caught where those big butted fish! although they looked like they kinda knew you.. "oh! it's the yak guy!" "well I will just give up and he will hurry and throw me back!" especially that last one.. it was like haulin' in a sack of mud after he saw you.... Carry on.. stay safe..

Digging the consistency, Matt! Keep it up and be safe dude!

Long time sub. Love this channel. Just straight fishing and no bs

Absolutely Gorgeous there!, and with huge Bass like those, it's a perfect vacation destination.

That is, indeed a beautiful site! Love it!!!

I cleaned a rainbow trout caught at the source of the Musselshell River here in Montana and it had a 4 ounce bull field mouse in it's belly. I weighed the mouse on good scales just to find out it's weight. The mouse was eaten head first, too. The rainbow weighed 3 1/4 pounds gutted. Yeah, all you're gonna catch is big fish with that lure. Looks like a nice day.

The loons the loons!!! What an amazing video. Nature at it's finest 👏🏼👍🏻🎣🚣

Always love your videos. Makes me miss summer too.

Excellent vid. Season is almost upon us. Everyone keep safe out there.

Just got a kayak a few weeks ago. Now i need to get it set up and get out on the water. Love the videos. I caught my largest small mouth bass with a whopper plopper. I didnt know what they were until i watched your videos

thanks Matt, beautiful water

With all the craziness it's good to just watch the natural order of things. A man in something floating along catching fish.

The loon at 8:09 made me tear up.. it starts going offffff 🖤keep up the good work brother.

You have the nicest videos and the prettiest places I have ever seen

I love it when it’s morning and there is mist I was in the Adirondack Mountains of ny and cranberry lake at 5 am was like clouds on the water and little tornados no fish from the bank I’ve didn’t take our yaks but it was beautiful

Love your videos, espcially the topwater. I have a pond that has alot of hanging limps and brush with submerged moss . What kind of topwaters would you throw in that kind of place.

Dude I love your videos, especially since you're calm about everything. Kinda jealous of that scenery too lol.

Thank you, nice work!!

i bought a rat for this year. hoping to catch some fish with it. great vids as always

Thank you, keep bringing us the outdoors. See you next time.

A beautiful slice of heaven, you found there.....

Love the top water bite! 💯

Great day to be out. Great day of fishing. Thanks for sharing.

What a great way to get pumped up to take my yak out 😎 hopefully Chickamaga gives me at least one good one 🤙

Eu tenho um rato desse, muito eficaz. Parabéns pelo video!

Such a relaxing video! Calm water Only vesel Comfy conditions Big largemouths on topwater And that loon

Fantastic catches bud 👍 really like that area on the edge too

Love all your vids, and I generally prefer Smallies. That said, this vid might be my favorite. Fishing one of the small MN lakes that have virtually no development, perfect morning with that fog, the sights and sound of those loons ... man,

Dream morning of fishing!

That was so very cool with the Loon!

NICE!!! I have something to watch after puking up my breakfast!!

Oh yeah, beautiful editing as usual.

You have the most amazing rivers I've ever seen in my life

Thank You kind sir for this video. Can't wait to take my kayak out to self distance myself from everything. Tough times.

Late August & high 40's?!🤪 That's crazy. Here in Louisiana we're lucky to get to the 40's.

Thanks for your videos

Beautiful Largemouth! Been trying to decide which rat to start with on the river for smallmouth!

Awesome stuff brother! God bless!

Great video man. This video reminds me up at our cabin in the Park Rapids MN area. The loons calling is music to my ears. Nice Bass!! You probably just sold about 100 more bbz1 rats. I'm going to buy one now!!

Awesome video... really nice bass

Awesome video man!!!

The Bob Ross of Yak Fishing.......enjoyed

Awesome catch!!!

Not a single dislike on this video. Exactly as it should be forever.

Gorgeous place to fish & to my amazement - not another guy fishing insight! Can't think of one video where I saw another boat fishing. So ND is devoid of all life forms except bass, pike, walleyes & ducks? I need to move!!

A veritable deep sea Moby Dick experience in an inland landlocked lake. Bravo!

you really are in heaven man. thanks for the video!

And also just a heads up you can get that exact rat lure on aliexpress on the 27th for $3.64 . There having a sale on that date so you could score almost 7 Rat lures for the price of 1 bbz rat . The guys store is called hunt house . Better stock up at that price .

Awesome video buddy!

Nice work!

Yep. Im moving to where these fish are!

Love watching your videos. Man you always seem to catch some VERY good bass.,.

Great vid! You need to throw the 50 size this year if you havent already

Hey! Question -- where is the lake located? I am dying to put my kayak down in place like this. I have little luck around the Twin Cities where I live.

The fishing is great but I'm worried about the werewolf howling the in the background. lol

😁👍 Nice BIG Bertha's!

You have unlimited vids stockpiled. I love yo

love the videos

Wow! An amazing morning! I need to get one of those rats!

Thanks for the calming video, I’m on duty right, (police)out in sunny California you were able to lower my blood pressure

What dreams are made of!!!

Does your phone use your thumb print to open it and if so does it work? When I'm catching a lot of fish which seems to be a way of life for you my thumb is scuffed up to hell and back.

So awesome brother

i like hat cams way better than chest cams, good call.
