Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit kzread.infoUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.

Hey Skipper!!! I watch every video you put out there. Sometimes I like to do a deep dive and come back to these videos. PLEASE COME TO CENTRAL OREGON and teach me how to fish!!! I live in the city of Waldport between the Pacific coast and Alsea Bay. It is a fishing paradise out here, but I don't catch anything! I'm disabled and have a very hard time getting out and getting back home but my passion is fishing! I WILL NEVER GIVE UP!!! Please come this way soon and tell me what it is I'm doing wrong. Your devoted student -- Todd ( Big hi, to your lovely lady/camera tech. and your amazing father!!! )

I moved to Jacksonville half a year ago from Chicago and I've learned a lot from your channel about saltwater fishing 🙂 Thank you for sharing the knowledge!

Great video keep them coming & super salty squid catches EVERYTHING!!

Tie on a bucktail with a trailer and add a teaser about a foot and a half above that. You'll catch about anything that swims if they're there. Always a good starting point.

Awesome. Grew up there. Used to run away and go to the marsh and camp. My father was stationed at mayport on a carrier. It’s great that you get to hang out with your dad.

I have been using a jig head and live minnow for years and has worked well for me !

I enjoy your videos all the way from 🇬🇧 and love that it is a community that swop idea and experiences. I've picked up lots of ideas from you.🎣😎

Always a pleasure to watch. 🤙

New subscription here. Im from northern California and i really like the way you promote sharing tips and helping fellow fisherman out. Around here people seem to be very secretive and protective of good fishing spots and techniques.

Can’t wait to see the rest of your videos from your trip here. Hope you liked it enough to make the move down.

NEW NAME!!! “SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN” Love the channel no harm intended

The lead heads are a staple in my tackle box, the bottom of my center console, my truck door pocket and my glove box. I buy white or red, I don't care about the eye. Use most commonly 1/4 oz. or 3/8 oz., mostly depends on where I want to fish it in the water column how hard the current is and the wind/line combination..it needs to be castable... with a 3"-5" grub with the squiggle tail in either; see through bright green with the glitter, solid white, or the gulp bright green swimming mullet(squiggle tail) .. steady retrieve at all depths works good, dragging on the bottom too. My favorite way is to pull it, then reel up the slack, pull it then reel up the slack. Make it 'jump'' to you, along the bottom. Slow or fast retrieve is up to the fish. (For bigger fish, add a trailer like a minnow, or shrimp to the hook, or 6" x 1/2" squid or octopus or fish skin(my favorite), and work the bottom for monster flounder, drum, and beyond... This works in nearly all water.

I used these in the INLET in Florida. This is the Go To rig. I live in NJ and will use these for snappers in August in NJ.

Awesome video I used jig head on frozen shrimp last week in Brownsville,Tx ship channel caught small red and black drum. Very practical. Thanks for video God Bless.

Great vid!

Excellent way of fishing

ive caught alot of snook and trout using different weighted jig heads and soft plastics. also the occasional red and flounder definitely great to use

Dope video man!

Thank You from Norfolk, VA.

I use jig heads all the time. I usually switch it up if I start getting a lot of snags, but they can catch a lot of different freshwater fish.

I find that using a tandem rig with a heavier jig at the bottom and a lighter jig on top with some shrimp or cut mullet is killer for the bull redfish and drum also speckled trout some times sheepshead but I would use smaller jigs when trying to catch sheepshead

Now that's a good video , comin from leecounty Florida

Nice , can’t wait to see more .. just seeing you guys spend time with family fishing is also great, hey how about a island camping catch n cook / survival video while you’re there 😇 pull up a few tents and catch dinner 😋 build a fire

That’s always a great method to use. The saltwater assasin Chicken on a chain color works amazing . I use a chartreuse jig head with them. You also can pinch the end of the tail on a live shrimp and thread it on with the hook on the top side of the shrimp .

I live in St.Augustine....you have to do a surf fishing video there on vilano or crescent beach!!! Just use shrimp! I catch whitening, pompano, redfish, sailcats, black drum, and sheepshead! Youll have so much fun fishing there.

Good tips 👍

Shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. There’s shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There’s pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That, that’s about it.

In the outer banks, this is what I use to kind of power fish and locate the schools. I'm not sure if theres a method to the madness or not but it seems like red jighead with a white grub is what drum prefer and trout go for the green! Happy fishing!

If you use jig heads with a fluke-like tail in waters like this, it helps to let it sit a bit longer on the floor every now and then. Flounder usually hangout in these types of spot and (from my experience) they seem to get lazy and only chase it in short burst.

What factors make you decide to fish with/without bucktail on your jigs?

I went to Jacksonville today

Genius

How is your line setup for this? Since it’s weighted do you need a egg or torpedo led? Or just main line straight to jig head? I live in Hawaii, never used these with success, but barely used them.

If your missing bites with a long swim style jig setup try a trailer hook.

In spain, supersalted squid doesn't works really well, but is a good bait

have you try salted shrimp or salted fish? its work or not? hope to see you in your next video.

Have a question is it possible in a survival situation to eat the squidy/shrimpy bits I’ve been wondering this bc of it being reversed by the salt???

Hey Skipper. In this video, which shoulder bag are you carrying? Thank you!
