In this video I explain just one way to target both flounder / fluke when fishing the backcountry in a kayak When I refer to backcountry I'm speaking about back bay fluke fishing the creeks and small narrow channels winding through sodbanks (also called mudbanks). I outline 3 different spots all located within the same vicinity and have a very successful day.
The location is in South New Jersey, but as always it's not the exact location that matters, its understanding the structure and how fish react to it. Yes, this video shows new jersey kayak fishing but the principles apply to other areas. If I can show how to catch fluke in this location you can replicate the same area and conditions in others.

Another AMAZING video! Love the commentary and the information is much appreciated!

Greatly appreciated! I went with a different format for this video in hopes of making it more engaging and valuable to everyone that views it. Any and all feedback to improve is appreciated.

@wsavinovich 3 года назад

Another great video Rich. Look forward to this opening weekend to employ some of your tips and tactics.

@FatDadFishing 3 года назад

Thanks Will! I'll be out on the water in Cape May County this weekend. Tight lines, and let me know how you do!

@josephdelucca8434 3 года назад

Just found your videos a couple of weeks ago. I've seen a lot of videos on fishing back bay for fluke and your nvideos are one of the best. Looking forward to seeing more videos in 2021.

@FatDadFishing 3 года назад

Very happy to hear you find value in the videos. I wanted to do what I could to help people catch more fish and am dying to get back out there for some fluke fishing! Hope to see you on the water.

Thank you! Gotta love when you pull a 22 incher out when fishing these backwaters. Love it!

Rich, awesome video, really enjoying the content and time that you are taking to explain. These are making the cold days and nites easy to get thru. Will definitely be in touch as we get closer

@FatDadFishing 3 года назад

Glad you like them! These videos aren't as popular as the catch videos, but the point of the channel is to help people catch, so hopefully people check them out.

Great video man from start to finish. Nice Fluke. Looked like a beautiful day to be on the water. And I just picked up those exact shrimp Gulps today. Thanks for sharing man

@FatDadFishing 4 года назад

Can't tell you how much I appreciate feedback. (positive and constructive) Just hoping this helps someone get some tight lines out on the water.

Hi Rich, 22" and 18" are really good size fluke for mid August. I just got home from Corson's Inlet. We caught a couple of shorts and a bunch of sea robins. The fluke were caught on the teaser. I read in last week's fishing report that sand eel lures were catching fluke. The teaser I used today was a soft plastic sand eel with Pro-Cure "Inshore" scent. I had Gulp and squid on the main hook. I use plain Gulp or Gulp and squid together lately. Changing the Gulp often seems to be the secret. Gotta have my Gulp !! We also went out into the ocean and found several large schools of full size Bunker. I'm sure the Blue Fish will be here soon to feed on them. Take care and good luck, Mickey

@FatDadFishing 4 года назад

Some good advice there. I've been burning through the Gulp this summer. I'll try using a sand eel teaser (I have a sand eel fly I use for striper). Will have to dig out my striper gear and try it out this weekend.

@1539Mickey 4 года назад

Hi Rich, The teaser I used today was a YUM, Swim'n Dinger 5" watermelon over white. It's a long, thin paddle tail. You could put an old Gulp body ( a swim mullet with the tail bit off ) in front of the YUM. A long "J" hook should hold the Gulp body ( for scent ) and the YUM . Or just the YUM with Pro Cure. I like paddle tail soft plastics for action and vibration. Good luck, Mickey

@bigrick9776 3 года назад

Hey Rich, do you remember what the water depth is in this creek around the 5 minute mark ? I know it changes as the tide goes out but wondering if I can get my boat up there at high tide. Thanks Rick

@FatDadFishing 3 года назад

Its a bit dicey to get in there and it will really depend on the draft and size of your boat. If you hug the sod on the right side at the entrance at high tide you will have a narrow channel that will open up to a 10-12 foot depth. (its now different depths than it was when I made this video). If I recall from a few weeks ago I believe it was 4 or 5 feet at the shallowest spot at high tide. Do NOT try to enter or exit on the left side at any tide with a boat. You might be able to get in, but the channel on that side is extremely narrow. Once inside you can likely push in a bit, but you need to be careful because the first long straight-away gets pretty shallow all the way across. The deeper holes are all at the bends (normally the outside of each bend).

Just found your page man love this content! Pretty sure your local maybe this spring we can get out on a trip togather

@FatDadFishing 3 года назад

I'm always down for meet ups. I do the majority of my fishing in New Jersey, but will venture into NY and DE waters on occasion. Shoot me an email with your contact info, or contact me through the Fat Dad Fishing page on Facebook. Thanks for checking out my channel!

@patvandermeer8143 4 года назад

I recently found you videos and love the detail you provide on how your locating the fish. How long ago was this fishing trip? Recent?

@FatDadFishing 4 года назад

Can't tell you how happy I am to hear you get some value from the videos. This was filmed at the end of July 2020.

@patvandermeer8143 4 года назад

Fat Dad Fishing I’m in Stone Harbor for the week and fishing every day. I’ve fished fresh water for years in kayak And boat. I upgraded my kayak to a SOT and just starting to fish the salt. Most of what I’m reading says the fluke have moved out. I found a 19 in keeper in the back bay today. I’m going back out tomorrow to try some of the type of spots you spoke about in the video. Thanks again for the content! It speeds up the learning curve.

@FatDadFishing 4 года назад

@@patvandermeer8143 There are still keepers in the back bays. I've caught at least one every Saturday since mid June. I know Stone Harbor VERY well. We had a family summer home there for over 60 years until it was sold a few years ago. I do a lot of videos in that area.

@patvandermeer8143 4 года назад

Fat Dad Fishing I recognized the first bridge on the south end of Stone Harbor in one of your videos. I caught a 19 in keeper there last week plus several just short. Thanks for the content. It’s helpful for those of us just learning the salt water.

@timgile8144 4 года назад

did you only catch flounder/ fluke on this set up?

@FatDadFishing 4 года назад

During this trip I also caught one very small sea bass and one sea robin. I use the same set-up when targeting striped bass as well in the fall and spring. (same rods and reels, line, and terminal tackle).
