Yeah you saw that. All these pros lying about real fishing techniques. I don’t do that. Here’ s real fishing, real mat punching, real flipping mats.
I love punching mats for bass so this is a day on the water some heavy tungsten weigts, matted cover, and largmeouth bass.
Main target: points, corners, and seams of penny wort mats in just over 1ft of water.
Water clarity is pretty tannic and ~6-9″

Parrot cam! Love it! It's rainy and cold out. I'm fiddling through my gear and hoping I can get back out on the water in a couple of days. Until then, I'm watching all these old Mikey Balzz vids that the YooToobs is so nicely recommending.
Love the Grass mat approach to skinny water. Often times I was plunking em out. Now I see u gotta ease it In,or shake it thru! Save from blowing out so many fish.nice MB!
Hey Mikey I had TR21 with a 250 venom on the back and that was the absolute best boat I ever owned will u do a video on ur boat I no its a triton also are they ur favorite boats too

So stoked on the videos dude!! Can't wait to utilize some of your shared techniques!! What's your Instagram handle dude?
PUNCH SKIRT?
Mikey, You are my HERO.
Can I get some Lake Rousseau Videos.
Never punched….very intrigued. Don't have much of that in the Hampton Roads VA area. Great angles with the camera. Perfect conditions.
You're the truth!!! Nice no bullshit videos thanks…
Some great tips–thanks Mike!!
Love the way you rip em out of those mats man, grouse stuff.
Love it!!!
Very cool and informative video bro! Thanks for always putting out great content!!
Good stuff, this is a technique I want to get better.
Nice job Mike I love using the same method can't wait to my IL water mat up.
Great breakdown of the catches. Good video man.

Spoon and Fluke !! Slither rig slides thru all that
Are you operating the drone, or is someone else doing it?
not even 20k subs? damn! so underrated! following your channel for 3 years and still watching so I think it gotta be good cuz I unsubscribed from a lot of channels!
These are definitely my favorite videos you make.
Nice job mah dude
Good stuff Mikey! Always a fan of the punching vids!
Biting the head off the baits just a confidence thing? Or does it help them slide through better
Nice vid man!! I'll be sure to use these tips when I'm fishing Florida this summer!
Dude your camera angles and editing are so on point!!! Fing beautiful video man! Simply beautiful!
Great video like the skinny water tip!
you never let me down. the end fish was sweet. winter sucked because you weren't posting any flipping vids.
you deserve a million subscribers
Oh man drone footage! Nice
awesome tips Mike and very cool video as always tight lines my dude
oh june how you are too far away. cant wait to get back on the bass. another great one Mike
Great video Mikey! This has to be the most in depth video I have seen on this. I especially appreciate the skinny water advice. We have a lot of that here on the Potomac. Would love to see a video in the pads one day. It would be cool to hear your approach and take on that!
Keep up the great work!
Some great tips brother. Honestly, I could watch you flip all damn day!!!
Those mats are thick. Good tips to pull them out!
