My Profile:
www.mattstefanfishing.com/
I was born and raised in Chicago, but after working 12 years in the financial Industry regulating the futures and options markets at the CME/CBOT I decided to pursue my passion fishing professional tournaments and left my full time corporate job. At that point, I moved to Junction City, WI with my wife Sara and two boys Hank and Duke. I've been fishing professionally since 2011 and full-time since 2015. I've qualified for seven MLF Championships and won roughly a half million in tournament winnings at the professional level.

My confidence bait, I caught my pb large mouth at four years old on one, will never forget it. It was on a 7 foot 8 spinning rod, in a river, I did everything except take it off the hook once on dock. I was using a shad color swim jig, with a small whit grub paddle tail, as my trailer. Never fished a kids rod a day in my life personally. Always used adult rods.

I carry on the deck of my boat some small ornamental landscape hand shears. If i get hung up in a branch and I can’t “ pop” it off, instead of untangling the bait, i just cut the branch and drift off. Saves the trolling motor prop and spooks less fish.

99% of my fishing is also on a River in Canada. The Ottawa River. Great smallmouth and largemouth. Been throwing spinnerbaits for years as a search bait and have never used a swim jig before. After watching this video I’ll be picking some up. It’s basically a spinnerbait without the blades and much more versatile! The blades on a spinnerbait can cause it to be physically taxing when covering water fast. The swim jig will be a refreshing change! Your videos are excellent and very informative. Thank you!

Second cast to same spot, bam, she inhaled it. River2Sea D Walker 100 trailer in green pumpkin. Casting accuracy is a work in progress for me; just started using baitcasters a few years ago.

Your accuracy and efficiency while working cover is amazing- you never miss a beat. I fish a swim jig quiet often myself but I'm no where near as good with it as you are- of course. When I first started fishing them for some reason my instinct was to just lean into them when they hit it instead of really hitting them- why I don't know but it felt right, it wasn't. Once I finally seemed to get over that tendency then I got where I would second guess myself mid swing and hesitate- no good. I think I was scared I was going to pull it away form them or something. Anyway I've gotten where I know now to set it fully and deliberately like I'm fishing any jig but- it took some time for some reason. Seems like such a silly thing to have an issue with now.

Great video. Thank you. Love watching how you work the bank. I really need to work on my accuracy and changing retrieves. Side note: I fish out of a kayak and try to set my rods up the night before. I was double checking my lines and tying on lures and putting them in the truck and found out when I got to the lake 3 out of 5 rods had some variation of a swim jig. LOL Stop... tie on a top water before I get out there. I had never caught any thing on a swim jig until this year.

You can catch them without a trailer

Your casting accuracy is amazing! I fish around a ton of lay downs and I'm always scared to cast a swim jig into them like you did. I probably would've lost/snagged 5-6 swim jigs during this same timeframe lol

Love these on the water videos, & swim jigs is also a great bait that I don't use much I have caught some biggies on it, I favor the Ned rig more than any bait that's out there cause it seems that's the only way I can get a bite I mainly fish the TN River where's there's currentl most of the time, that River you on looked juicy. No amount of money can buy the knowledge you have acquired from fishing, but thank you for sharing some of it with the world. One note on the video about which bass tournament to fish with BPT also takes care of their anglers by weather such as fog delays & storms I think that's very important just wanted to give you a little more to think about👍

Great video footage, Matt. Your skip casts are flat out amazing. I am not there yet, but working on it. Sorry for your lure losses due to the Pike. I have decided that when I can get my lure closer to the places you get yours I will be catching more fish. I really enjoyed the video! Thanks. How do you feel about the Tokyo Rig. Do you believe in it? If so, would you do a video on it to include the best times and conditions to fish it?

I've got to try the swim jig. Once this spinnerbait bite lightens up I'll tie one on. Looks like the trailer is pretty important

Thanks, Matt. Working on my swim jig game. Only other bait I could suggest has the same versatility, especially in and around that hind of cover is a Texas rigged worm. I have been wrecking them everywhere on that Berkley Maxscent Kingtail. Only problem is they don't last long as a jig, usually one or two fish, and they're on the expensive side. Have you tried them?

I've been using a 7'5" MH-XF for my swim jigs lately. Seems that the extra length makes the tip a bit softer while having the sensitivity of the XF action. Not sure if it's my favorite yet but that's what I end up trying it on consistently. Also, have you tried a River2Sea D Walker 120mm on the back? The action is fantastic and gives you a completely new look.

I’m not a fan of using it on XF rods. I’ve tried it and found i was losing a lot of fish with it. But if it works for you that’s all that matters.
