Plum Gut off Eastern Long Island can be a striper mecca. I've fished this area for 25 years and have NEVER had an epic trip like this mid-May trip on my buddy John Skinner's 16' Grumman aluminum boat.
The weather was God-awful with a driving rain almost the entire trip that affected the video and sound quality a bit. What the weather didn't affect was the absolute insane fishing as Skinner and I managed 62 striped bass between the two of us in 3.5 hours of fishing.

WOW!!!! Nice trip!!!

@zzs7253 3 месяца назад

Nice video man! Do you always use 6oz? I think you mentioned you were fishing around 70’ deep, what if you are fishing 40-50’, will you use 4oz then?

@jiggingjerks 3 месяца назад

Likely still use 6 with such a strong current

@zzs7253 3 месяца назад

@@jiggingjerksthanks! So if it’s slower current, will you use smaller bucktails? Or you think the faster current is the most productive tide that you only want to fish

@jiggingjerks 3 месяца назад

@@zzs7253 not that they won’t work when the current is slower, but I think the presentation is not as believable. I think if the Current is slower, you’re better off casting and retrieving or using live bait like eels or a diamond jig or flutter spoon.

Nice trip guys! Your arms must be tired from reeling in all those fish! Gotta love catching and releasing Bass! 👍👍🐟🐟

@duffmeister6480 4 месяца назад

I think you out fished John Skinner, is that possible ! You guys need the plastic fish vise grips, makes grabbing fish so much easier especially if they have teeth, thanks.

@jiggingjerks 4 месяца назад

Hahaha, it was pretty even. Honestly, not that bad on the hands. Of course, would never do that with blues

Crushed them last trip on 8oz diamond jigs. They were also on Butterfish. The 8oz jig outfished the 6oz jig by a wide margin. They wanted the larger profile.

Great stuff guys. Got me pumped for the weekend. What was your avg depths if u don't mind me asking. Cheers

@jiggingjerks 4 месяца назад

Most of the fish were in 60 to 85 feet

@pastapaul150 4 месяца назад

Thats a ton of fish. Wonder if the spinning set up helped as well. Getting line off faster maybe?

@jiggingjerks 4 месяца назад

Believe it or not, I think it did. Definitely took longer to get to the bottom with the conventional but a lot easier to reel them up with the big Penn Fathom reel rather than a small spinner.

@pastapaul150 4 месяца назад

@@jiggingjerks Was there last week with a buddy and outfished him with the spinning reel. I def had more fun with my tsunami 2000 and light rod.

@johnmccreary1554 4 месяца назад

Spinner for the single buck tail, not the Phantom?

@jiggingjerks 4 месяца назад

Should have used the conventional from beginning. Has way more torque. I had the spoon on the conventional and the bucktail on the spinner from outset of trip
