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

    Matt I LOVE these on-the-water bait tests! You get me sitting on the edge of my seat when you hook up with those 5 ib. smallies on the Nessie and the Dime 6. I am sure Berkley is very happy to have doing these videos featuring their baits. Keep up the great work!!
  • Nice one. Thanks for sharing. I believe those big smallies like to follow and study the bait. Those rascals. 😂 I agree, nice bait.
  • @withscars
    I'm sooooo looking forward to getting some of those. I'm on Berkley's email list to be notified when they are available. That was a killer big ole smallmouth Matt!! Glad you finally landed one with the Nessie. I've never caught one of those. We don't have them around here in Louisiana.
  • @Triple87
    Wish I could get my hands on those right now. 😂 Side note, hover rigs and tush rigs are now being sold in my local tackle shops up here in Canada. As you might have guessed, they sold out fast. Lmao..
  • @Cliff_Hanger9465
    Thanks for this video, Matt, super nice smallie! Just what I needed to see after ordering a few 7's, supposed to come in tomorrow, looking forward to practicing with them a bit before it gets warmer.
  • @wpgordone352
    Great to see that BIG'UN at the End , Matt !!! Thanks and Good Luck , Tomorrow !!!
  • Got one tied on for tomorrow, along with a jig and a couple cranks. A spinner bait and bladed jig in back up. Probably get out there and have to rethink it all. 🤔
  • @texoma_outdoors
    I know one notable big bait guy who puts an extra treble on the line tie as a stinger. He says the nature of the bait they often go for a head shot and will miss the trebles farther back but one on the front will stick them
  • @johnnyweaver1300
    These on water videos I really like, so glad you were able to get a biggun, that SM being so big it had a pretty good size mouth & was able to get hooked up, you definitely need more practice with it, I seen this past year on the BPT more anglers using one, it does attract big fish!👍🎣
  • @johnrayner5599
    Waty to go Matt, that was a super nice smallie, I love that glide bait bite, no wondering if they got it, all or nothing with this bait.
  • @NeilGraham.I.M.F
    Man I'm still waiting to get my hands on a couple of those. I never fished a Glide bait before but when I seen the videos of them I've been wanting to try them ever since. The Nessie that is not other glyphosate
  • @johndrx165
    Monster! They seemed to like it fast. Go get 'em!
  • 🍺Nice fish. Nice video. Nice day. Now time for me to get a nice drink.🤠
  • Don't know who had more fun Hank or you ? 😂 It's the same for me. Be it wake, glide or swim. Heartbreak or heart attack.
  • @richardblake4777
    Your video reminded me of a fish my buddy caught earlier this week. We both fought it for about 15 minutes each. It was a 5 ft long Alligator Gar and we estimated that it weighed between 100 to 120 pounds and was caught on a 100 series green/ chartreuse Bandit crankbaits with 12 Seaguer basic florocarbon line . It was hooked in the eye socket which made him a free swimmer. See
