Trying The Choppo 75 On Some River Smallies! 

Can we just take a moment to admire this gentleman's casting accuracy?

You Sir are a National Treasure

To answer your traditional ending: "hope you guys enjoyed the day out here in the kayak with me" Absolutely; *next best thing to being there.* Thanks for the time and effort that you put into your videos. Without it we wouldn't be able to enjoy these great videos.

You catch more bass in a trip than I've caught in my life haha. Thanks for the content and letting me live vicariously!

What a perfect way to start a Sunday watching you Matt!!

Love your channel and thanks for always keeping it clean. I watch with my grandson sometimes and not have to worry about what he’ll hear is very nice . Great video as always

I appreciate your videos. Nobody taught me how to fish and it’s nice to have guidance. Thank you

Dude!!!! The Choppo 75 is DEADLY! Love throwing it out.

I have been surfing for a couple of years now trying to find this exact channel. Almost every other fishing channel is like "look at me, I'm the star" and "here's my face stuffing into your face" and a lot of loud useless talk and noise. This channel is peaceful, instructive - with one whom I would describe as a true professional angler doing what he likes to do instead of a constant self promotion channel. Very admirable. Thank you so much for sharing. I think I will enjoy going through all your 300+ videos (done 5 so far and I just found your channel today).

You had some beautiful fish visit you. Thank you for bringing us along on your trip to the wilds. Be well.

Thank you, Matt, for another wonderful, relaxing day floating the river with you while you work your magic. It's spellbinding!

Yes Matt is a pro - always great! The other thing with these videos is his (not to talk as if you aren’t there) reverence for each fish. Thank you for not taking them for granted Matt. You’re professionalism and ethical respect is quite unusual out here in youtube land.

That is my go to bait for smallmouth here in Virginia they crush it good. Had some big ones yesterday on it. Thanks again for another awesome adventure. Late.

Matt, thank you for taking us along on another great fishing adventure. Big congratulations on reaching 300K subscribers, definitely well deserved.

I go to the choppo over the plopper most days. I've been the heck out of them and used them for years on end.

I think I've become a better angler just from watching your videos! thanks for the tips and the time you take to make these videos!

Awesome video again Matt! I really like the louder plop the choppo makes personally!

The choppo 75 is my first topwater lure..love to see you using it in your videos 😅😂👍

Congratulations on 300k!

Choppo in Bluegill is a great smallie lure ! Been using for a year now and quite impressed 👌. Glad you gave it a try 👍

Love your videos. Best fishing channel. I’ve been using Choppos 75 and 90 this fall on a small Crown lake here in Ontario and I like them. Ones a perch and the other a frog. The smallies are going for them. Mostly reaction strikes which makes it that much more fun. Here in Canada the Choppo is also roughly ten bucks cheaper than the Whopper Plopper.

I love when I watch your videos and know where you are. This is a great spot. 😉😊

I love this channel! I give thumbs up every time right when I start the video, because they never fail!

Congrats on 300k!! I love watching your pike and musky fishing videos even tho I’m a southern bass fisherman

The Choppo is my #1 go to topwater, especially the frog pattern! I definitely run both but I think the choppos sound better and I don't get my line wrapped on the hooks during casts like I do the Plopper 75. But hey they both have a place in my tacklebox!

I just love watching your videos. It keeps me busy during this cold weather

Listening to you narrate your fishing is like listening to Mr. Rogers 🤗

Your cast accuracy is insane!

One thing ive learned from watching your videos is how to net the fish and then slip the handle under my leg off to the side. I had issues landing fish until i saw an example of how you do it. Ive only been kayak fishing for a bout 2 months so im still learning. Thanks for being super relaxing and educational to watch!

Always enjoy your fishing trips. Thanks for sharing!

Another great vid! I love that you show us the cast, the splash and the retrieve - great photography! Thanks!

Oh gosh, how great it is to watch your new relaxing video right after lunch? ❤

Literally ordered that exact Choppo yesterday. Excited to give it a try. Good stuff buddy

Love watching you fish, I can hear the water…. That’s what’s part of fishing ,for me, thank you

Let’s go! Just picked up the choppo 75 the other day! Keep it up, right lines.

I'll probably never get tired of your vids. Best fishing-content here on RU-vid 👍

Totally agree with the lure choice! I have broken several Choppo & Googan Revolvers because of the plastic plopper but I have never once broken a whopper plopper.

You truly are a wild and crazy guy.

Nice Sunday morning surprised at work, thanks

Ah, the old Karate-Choppo trick!

Love your Vids Matt! I'm a huge W.P. fan but have been throwing the Choppo a lot this year with great results on both Large & Small jaws. Thanks for your work!

Congrats on the 300k!!! Been here since about 50k. Fav channel then, fav channel now!

I’ve always switched between the two because the sound is a little different. The hooks are different too. The Plopper has a more robust hook while the Choppo has a lighter wire. I actually think my hook and land ratio might be better with the Berkeley hooks.

I love these river videos they are always so calming

Sunday Morning Yak followed by football, can't get much better than that!

That color is magic I just bought it 2 days ago and crushed like 20 bass on it already

It is awesome to see how loud the Choppo 75 plops, it's on my shopping list for sure! I already love the Whopper Plopper 75. I don't care for either the Choppo 90 or Whopper Plopper 90. The plopper tails on each are too small and those lures must be burned way too far before the plopping begins.

Definitely need to try this one out. Congrats on 300k!

Choppo is my favorite lure, standard buzz bait was my go to for the longest time. Then I tried the choppo, I was hooked with how many fish I was catching on it. Rewatching your old videos and boy I can't wait for spring and summer. I am having such a hard time finding a decent ice fishing spot this year, making it hard to get into. As soon as I'm able to get out on my kayak, I will be out there enjoying the beautiful sound of open water.

I love it at 14:29, "Thats a fish!" You aced it too! Lol Watching your videos is so relaxing compared to most. No drama at all! I love the relaxed style!

I’m new in your channel but by far the best one !!!! I’ve seen all the vids . All the best from Portugal !!!! 😊

Well done on 300k subs.

Congrats on 300k! You are a true inspiration sir!

Berkley choppo for the win! Great video Matt

Congrats on 300K subs. Definitely well-deserved. 🙇‍♂

Thanks for the show

I’ve been waiting for this one!!! Choppo is King

Thanks Matt ,great video & solid advice!

Beautiful fall day fishing in the Midwest! Great post!

Huge fan man! you turned me on to River2Sea lures and I absolutely smashed the bass this year in Ontario! cheers man, happy fishing

This is one of my all time favorite baits for smallmouth. They hit it so hard every time!

Such good content for a slow Sunday.

I love your videos man im in minnesota also💪💪🎣🎣

Absolutely fantastic video man love yer stuff so much

Another great day! Thanks!

Another great ride in the yak! I was going to ask which lure you prefer, but you answered my question. I would count more on the plopper. Thank You for another amazing video! ❤

Congrats on 300k my guy! Well deserved! Long time sub

Really love your videos (all of them) ! Just can't wait 'till Sunday to get a new one to view. Just keep on !

Congrats reaching 300k yak!!! I truly appreciate the videos you produce on the water! Make a man wanna tell his wife he’s running to the store for a minute to pitch a line !!!

Congratulations on 300k !!!!

This is a #1 kind of Angler Show viewer experience. It's "10" .

This guy is like the Bob Ross of fishing, his voice is so calming.

Really enjoying your fishing videos, thanks.

Always enjoy your work!

Thank you as always!

Excellent as always!!

Nice trip thanks for dragging me behind the kayak with ya!

Great video Matt. We do appreciate your side by side comparison of lures. Bought a couple Ozark frog lures for a buddy and I'm confident he'll catch fish. Loving putting the Whopper Plopper 75 perch and 60 monkey butt and bone colors to use. Hard to beat when the bass are aggressive. Thanks for taking us along again brother. Blessings

Such great content and scenery.

I’m literally doing the same thing. I’m a WP guy myself, but saw some Choppos on sale. Aesthetically I prefer the Choppos, but the sound and feel are about the same. Both fun of course. Tried the Maverick 90 and the Bone 75 is next. Keep up the lure vids. They’re always fun.

Once again, the Bob Ross of fishing strikes again... no pun intended. 😁 Beautiful scenery, great action, and the soothing narration is the icing on the cake. Looking forward to the next adventure in the kayak...!

Awesome. Also, congrats to 300k

Hey Matt great video my brother!!! I love the sound of the crickets at the end of the video!!!

You are the original fish whisperer. I am amazed at your ability to catch fish regardless of which lure you use. Do you have a favorite? You clearly can fish with any lure that’s available today. I remain impressed

Matt love the videos keep up the great work

Thanks for yet another well done and entertaining video.

Hi. I really like your expression "There´s one" :D , and the rod bends....

Congrats on hitting 300K subs!

Awesome vid, and congrats on 300k subs!! 🎉

Loved the video, Brother! Just a tip I learned from watching others use these type baits is that ALWAYS have a worm ready for those times when you miss them. Throw them in the area and get them!

I also like when you use the old school jitterbug 😃

Congrats on 300k subs!

Thank you for such beautiful content 😊

Around here in Ontario; choppos are about $15Cn and whopperploppers are closer to $25Cn and much harder to find. Competition will bring a price-drop, hopefully. ;) I've caught fish on the $3Cn knockoffs from china too.

Weed action on the paddle was exciting. Love the here and there pike thow in a catfish and its a show.👍👍🐟🦈 tight lines.

I would love to have the opportunity to fish for bass one day. In Europe I mostly do carp and pike fishing. It's a rush when you hook a pike top water, but I dream to be able to fish bass from kayak in the river.

Another great video from you!

When you wernt paying attention because you're looking off to the side, that spot looks like it would be great for frogs

Another great video and action!!🎣
