My Profile:

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 over a half million in tournament winnings at the professional level.

I'm glad you suggested these were summertime retrieves. I've had some epic size and numbers days, using an incredibly slow and steady retrieve, prespawn. Thanks for the video. Keep up the good work.

Genius Matt. Ive watched hundreds of fishing videos and ive never seen anyone do those last 2 retrieves. Im a big squarebill fan so cant wait to try these. The bite is finally good here now.

One of the best advice I heard some years ago was "You cannot reel faster than a fish can swim." and I'm always thinking about it.
Those crankbait retrieves will for sure be put to good use! Especially the dragging part, feels like the jig will take a break for a little bit hehe..!

Cranks really turn my crank!! Man I have been a hard core crank bait aficionado for over 30 years and if I could give people advice that’s made me successful is don’t be a sucker and get over fancy paying tons for fancy cranks. My first crank bait ever was a Rapala floating minnow I got in my Easter basket when I was maybe 8 or 9 and that’s where it began and after over 30 years of buying all kinds of every brand for me at the end of the day my confidence baits are simply Rapala right out of the package. Varied retrieves, speed cranking and dredging has landed me some real quality bass! Great vid always appreciate your willingness to share your extensive knowledge!

I haven’t been fishing yet this year but going to start back soon. I’ve watched a lot of your retrieve videos before but recently have been watching them again to refresh my memory. Can’t wait to get back out fishing again. Thanks for these videos they’re great!

Man I watched this video and thought there’s no way these methods help that much. Ended up going fishing shortly afterwards and nothing was biting so I threw on a crankbait. I said screw it and tried the 2nd method from this video and landed my personal best on 1st or 2nd cast. (I haven’t caught anything on crankbait this year up until now) Needless to say, I’m subscribing😁

Nailed it Matt. Number two is one I’ve used for lockjaw bass. A DD22 or 6XD In 12-15 feet of water off a current break has been a summer time killer.
Thanks for the videos.
Godspeed

Today was bright and sunny in Kentucky. Nothing was biting in the afternoon. I put on a rattling bait and executed two of your tips... the swoop and pause... and the bottom grind... each netted one largemouth, the second one being a 2 pounder. New subscriber!

Nice, I’ve been using these 3 techniques for about 8 years, using very expensive baits and gear and I got only 1 fish. At first I thought it was the gear, so I upgraded. Then I thought it was my technique. It probably is, but your showing exactly what I’m doing. And now I think our local fish are either too smart or too scared.

I discovered this by trial and error on my first time kayak fishing and using a crankbait. I recognized it will dive when I really crank it - and bass would HIT it immediately. It was thrilling. I’ll def try some of these other techniques!!! Thanks for making this!

I am really loving your "retrieves" series. As someone still trying to learn bass fishing and up my game to a new level this is one of the main things I need to learn. Please keep going with this series. I would also like you to put these "retrieve" videos in a "How To Retrieve" playlist because I will be going back and rewatching them until I get the retrieves down. Great job & thanks!

Quality info Matt! I may have missed this type of info on other channels, but I for one have never seen these specific tips (with an actual demonstration) before. Thanks!

Wow!. Your going to get a hit put on you by other pros dude if you keep this up. This is the juice that separates us regular guys and pros. ALL your videos are straight 🔥 . After watching one of your videos like this I feel like I owe you money lol. Thank you so much for sharing this stuff. For years I've felt like I hit a wall and kept telling myself to just keep going it will eventually click. If I keep casting one day I'll make the cast that breaks the wall down. Truth is though I can only teach myself so much. I can't quite put it into words but THANK YOU for sharing this stuff. This is the little things that changes 13lb bags into 20lb bags. You my friend are helping us regular guys in a way no one else has ever attempted to do. I can't thank you enough.

Thanks Matt. I do those and a couple more. I of my favorites is letting a crank float a little after contact and sweeping the rod hard. Works for me. Good luck on your next tournament.

Great video Matt! I just started to regularly use crank baits and after watching your video a few days ago I did the fast reel, stop, fast reel technique today and caught 3 bass at the end of my morning outing. I would not have caught these had it not been for your video. Tight lines, thanks so much.

I watched this video the night before I was going fishing this week, then next morning went fishing, 1st cast with a small squarebill (using the rod sweep reel in the slack retrieve) caught 1.5lb largemouth bass.Thank you!
