Here in Jersey in the Raritan and out on the ocean I have been doing really well with 6in grub nuclear chicken along with white 6 in grubs

We had 5 guys out yesterday near Fire Island. We had 14 keepers on the boat ..with 3 keeper sea bass and a keeper cod on the side. Pretty much all the fish hit pink shine or blue fuze.

@stephenschneider3967 Год назад

Didn’t have much luck in side of great South Bay fire island. We used shiners and squid and 1 fluke for our efforts. Will definitely start using the gulp then. As always thanks for the tips

Hey John. I hit Sandy Hook this morning. I fished the ocean side beaches for Fluke. The majority of the Fluke were hitting my teaser, which was the Berkley Gulp Shrimp in Natural Penny. A few were on my Spro 1oz bucktail in white tipped with the Berkley 4" chartreuse mullet. Most were between 12 and 16 inches. It was fun!! Thank you for your good tips!!! Keep up the good work 👍

@comfortablynumb9342 Год назад

Do you use different rods for the heavier jigs? I can see using an ounce or maybe ounce and a half on my baitcasters but it seems like anything heavier would be too much. So do you take a couple rodd for different weights of jigs? I'm just setting into the VA Beach area and I'm definitely interested in the party boats for flounder. And I will be trying from the beach and piers too. So I'm curious about what line you are using and the specs for your fluke jigging rods.

@tyler2moons Год назад

your rod should indicate the range of jigs/lures it can handle. you want to use the lightest jig u can get away with which is usually 0.5-1.5 ounce. use a braided line, round 15 lb test. j-braid makes good ones. 20 lb test flourocarbon leader. u can go heavier when on the boat

@comfortablynumb9342 Год назад

@@tyler2moons I think the rods I have with baitcasters will work, but the rods are a little light for 1.5 oz. I believe they're both rated for up to 3,/4 oz but that's for casting. But if I'm going to use heavier jigs I'll need a stiffer rod. One has 25 lb test braid and the other has 15. Both are 7. The Ugly Stik Lite Pro should be a nice flounder rod.

@JohnSkinnerFishing Год назад

I use one rod in the ocean and local deep bay for jigs 1.5-6 ounces bit.ly/3QsR6ch. I have a different rod for 1/2-2 ounces bit.ly/3B4X1Q1.

@jamesps7515 Год назад

So many people have told me over my 20 years of fluking to NEVER pump the rod. I see you do it all the time and I’m clinching every single time wondering if you’re going to drop the fish. I have far more luck setting the hook slow retrieve and 0 rod pump. BUT you are the master for a reason.

@N2theBlue1 Год назад

Pumping the rod is fine as long as you keep the line tight when reeling down and don’t let the line get slack. Slack line = lost fish. The 7.0:1 gear ratio reel he uses helps in that regard.

@JohnSkinnerFishing Год назад

I think I do that because if I think about all of the other species I fish for, I would never consider just reeling. I'm picturing hooked up to a striper, albie, snook, blackfish, ... What's important is that I always keep the rod bent through the pumping and cranking. At some point with a big fluke coming up I will usually switch to just reeling. I had a 10.5 yesterday and I noticed that the last third of the fight I was just reeling. Great comment.

I dropped a huge fluke like this last May. Would’ve definitely been a dd and pd for me. My biggest is 8 pounds. Comparing fights… I was using the same setup. This fish felt like it was twice as strong. Almost pulled the rod out my hands on the retrieve. I walked down the rocks to meet it there and that little slack from Jumping down a rock frees him lmao. 3 cranks for the surface. I need therapy but I learned

@noeleust4674 Год назад

Next time you’re out there It would nice to see a good demonstration of you using a fluke spoon with big fresh bait for larger grade fluke. I’m just curious to see if it Will consistently catch larger fluke vs The chicken rig. Good vid!

@JohnSkinnerFishing Год назад

I have no interest in a fluke spoon because it requires the right kind of drift for it to present properly, and with bottom currents often different than surface currents where we fish, I can't be confident that the spoon is always swimming correctly. Bucktails are simple enough that if the right weight is chosen, they always present correctly. We've done enough bait comparisons - strips, dead, live... against Gulp to be confident that Gulp is the way to go. Yesterday we had a non-regular on the boat who used fresh fluke strips instead of Gulp. There were four of us fishing. Three of us combined for 16 keeper fluke, with three between 6 and 7 pounds and a 10.5-pounder. The person jigging the fresh bait strips caught 1 regular keeper. We've seen it play out that way many times.

@noeleust4674 Год назад

Gulp on Chicken Rigs and bucktails had always been my go to. I was always curious about the spoons. I don’t know anybody and haven’t seen it in action but was told that it does catch larger fish when used properly. However I’m sure that many of us would like to see you use that and perhaps a demonstrating the proper way to deploy the spoon (with gulp lol) when conditions are appropriate. Thanks for the response👍🏾.
