My Profile:
http://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.

  1. I agree with you Matt.
    I would like to see what your comments would be on putting it a bead or weight on a frog body to accrsct bass??? Please comment on this topic Thanks!
    Give me some suggestions.

  2. The Gobbi that was brought to the great lakes more or less wasn't even a bait fish that bass had ever seen especially in the great lakes. I'm guessing where ever they came from besides God there are Bass there too. Regardless, now the bass have become smart enough to hunt in packs dislodging the rocks under which the Gobbi like to hide when the predator appears be it Walleye, Trout, Salmon or Bass, None of those species and I'm sure the Muskie that Michigan is raising to reintroduce into the waters of Lake Michigan will make a meal of such a plentiful food source, Even the Gobbi themselves, they began to eat the Zebra young muscles because the shell isn't hard yet. No body taught them or sent them a memo.

  3. White and ‘shad colored’ baits have been effective for me in every kind of lake condition, and water clarity, even in small grassy lakes here in Texas where bluegill is by far the predominant forage fish. I have had some of my best days with white crankbaits pulled right over the top of submerged vegetation in lakes with clear, tannic water, and zero shad for forage. It doesn’t match the hatch at all, but it’s very visible, and it’s swimming by like something a bass would eat.

  4. Good reflections and no need of ten colours of the same lure (done that, been there ha ha). One thing that boosts most jerkbaits is give them a black striping with a waterresistant black marker. That makes a bait more easy to strike for the fish.

  5. Salt Strong has some new hard plastic baits you might like. The Skinny Lipper is a jerk bait with a little lip so it stays shallow. It casts like a bullet. Bass would definitely hit it. They have a new suspending twitch bait that should be a bass slayer too.
    As far as colors of baits, I catch lots of fish with white or chartreuse soft plastics in the saltwater. They seem to work no matter the water color. For hard baits white or chartreuse is good too but I like silver a lot too. White with a red head is a classic that still works.

  6. Thanks Matt: I’ve never asked the “best color” question, but I sure appreciate your answer. It makes sense. Why does a bass bite a weird colored chatter bait, or spinner bait, etc. ? They react because it came by. I don’t think they thought about the light and color spectrum. Thank you again for great info. God Bless!

  7. Hi Matt. It sure looked like you were throwing white braid with a leader probably flouro. Couldn’t tell for sure. If you were was it just convenient for fun fishing or was it purposefully chosen? Assuming that it was braid to flouro. Thanks
