Very enjoyable and appreciate the way you handle the fish with the utmost respect. Thank you..
Thank you!!
I was fishing the same conditions the other day and all of my fluke came from 3-5' out into the water. Even saw a big striper cruising the shallows. The bait was close to shore so that's where my focus was. Everyone else was trying to bomb their bait 50'. I was the only person catching anything that morning
nice day ! we used to use rebel deep diver lures in the 70 's but mainly in the bay . i like the way you change things up !
Hey if it looks like a baitfish and you can present it in the right column a fluke will eat it!
I think this is your best show yet they keep getting better and better. I’m just dreaming all the time watching you. I can’t walk a half a block but I still bought a rod and reel. Can you imagine that you’re costing me money buddy lol love you show
Thank you!!
Good for you. Well deserved 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice Fluke at the end 💯💪
Great Action 💯💪
Amazing bite! Great footage.
Dude, that is epic fishing and epic catch and release! What a great day of fishing. You must have had an amazing night of sleep that night. Wheneve I have an amazing out of the ordinary day I get my best sleep ever.
Usually after a day like that I'm amped up until I crash then yes - I sleep like a baby lol
I love the Lucky Craft square bills for bass, can’t wait to try them on fluke. You can get some really good deals on the 1.5 Lucky Craft square bills and other Lucky Crafts at Ollies lol yes Ollies but it’s hit or miss depending what you want. Great videos as always ! Love this channel !
Epic trip
One for the ages...
This is insane, amazing haul
Thanks EJ!
As for the water bottle i use the ones with the top that you pull open . Great for squirting out sand and pre rinsing reel after fishing for ride home
I'm hoping that never happens again lol
You should do a video of trying to catch a fluke on as many different lures as possible. Fucking spinnerbait, inline spinner, texas rigged senko, ned rig, dropshot, sluggo. All the typical bass stuff and then just get stranger after that.
Lol I've caught on most of those, but as my rule is no video without at least a limit of 18"+ fluke...it can be a challenge!
Nice! A lot better than the 2 dinks I caught in NC this morning from the sand! LOL. Massive shore break but some nice clean water with a lot of bait around. Only had an hour to mess around on incoming tide. Jigs...not the crankbait.
I'm from NC I normally fish around Surfcity, but due to flounder restrictions I've been fish SC. What part of NC did you try?
@@pieseasmyseas Northern Outer Banks. Duck/Southern Shores but I also fish down in Kitty Hawk to Nags head at times (beach - for flounder)
@glennplomchok5125 good area when you can keep I've gotten some big ones by the wall at the port.
Wow and to think I'd be happy with just ONE fish to eat.
This is gonna be me next week!
👊👊👊
Dude has the best fluke spot on the planet
Funny thing about spots on an open beach is they tend to move :)
awesome video again, I was just wondering if there was any mods you did to your baitcasting reel before bringing it to salt water because I have a tatula sv tw I got for freshwater fishing but I will now be doing that much less and wanted to use it in the salt and was just wondering your take
I do prep the reels - smear Tef Gel all over the frame, flood the pinion bearings (and cavities) with aquashield grease, spool bearings get TSI321, and rinse thoroughly after each trip. Open up 2-3 times during the season to check everything is in order.
guess im busting out a crankbait next trip
Do it!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪
Sick catch! Do you generally go at slack tide, so the waves are smaller? I’m having trouble fishing on my SS beaches with larger waves during the out or in.
Out front it's generally a wind thing - relentless south winds like we've been getting = major swell and waves. Normal summers with variations in wind direction every couple of days...the tide matters a lot less than it does in the back bays/rivers. Fluke will wiggle around and reposition from incoming to outgoing but they tend not to completely shut down on a tide change like they can in the back.
That was very cool to watch. Up here in CT. we don't really have a good shore break like you have down there. But I bet you could do the same thing up in Rhode Island easily. How did you not keep any of those delicious fluke?????
Anywhere you can get within 5ft of the bottom it should work well, esp if they're in the mood to chase - I keep a couple a season that's about it...too lazy to deal with storing/cutting/cooking fish most of the time haha
What a day! I just subscribed and have been watching your videos for a few weeks, and im thoroughly impressed. I'm not an avid angler as much as I'd like to be as my fishing is limited to a few trips a month and typically in not ideal conditions since im confined to the constraints of a demanding career and balancing home/work life constantly. I do have a decent grasp of how to fish and have accumulated some decent, albeit budget, gear, but since my trips are far and few between, I always try to maximum my chances of catching fish by trying to be at the right place at the right time. Sorry for the long rant, but I do have a question; did you choose that location because you applied prior knowledge and knew conditions were ripe for fish to be there or were your on that strip of beach and "found" a nice body of fish? Is finding the fish half the battle for you and once you hone in on them you work that structure or whatever is holding fish in that area?? My son and I have never caught a keeper from shore and we're just looking for some guidance to help us on the limited trips we have together. Any additional insight or tips would be greatly appreciated! Great job! 🙂👍
Out of curiosity, did you you try a single jig even though the conditions dictated a cranbait ? Then again, why change if it’s working lol
I almost always start off the trip with the single jig + 6" jerk shad, regardless of conditions. Once I locate fish the hardbaits come out if that's what I feel like that day.
Hi am trying to locate that mojo flat force color. I located all the colors except for the crankbait you're demonstrating on the video.
Cold Shad 👊
Nice video. We find we have to get off the beach when lifeguards show up.
All those people wasting time and space NOT fishing our beach lol!
@@CookingandFishing😂
Ridiculous! Come on to NC & get your limit 😅 Nice fish! Them flounder will hit almost anything if you keep it moving.
What is a crankbait and how would I use it?
Roger you the GOAT my guy
🥰
Legit just bought 3 jerkbaits today so I could try this approach in the surf
Excellent!!
What are the best color choices for crankbait halibut?
Profile and action matters more than color, but something shad-based is a good start. Opaque for cloudy days and foil/flash for bright sun, maybe something translucent like a ghost minnow if the water is crystal clear and calm.
Thank you 🙏
Geez. I've been fishing up here at Plum Island and along the NH seacoast. Nada. Where are you??? Also, what's a "kicker?" Thanks!
NY/NJ area - kicker = biggest fish in your bag. And yeah fluking is off in many, many areas this season...vast stretches of beach devoid of life, but then you can encounter a school of fish and it's on. But overall this season has been off to a historically slow start. Sort of concerning depending on how the rest of it plays out.
@@CookingandFishing Pretty sure the warming waters of the Gulf of Maine are having an impact. But that's a different discussion! Thanks for the reply.
Are you using floating or sinking ones?
These are all floating crankbaits for freshwater bass fishing. Some float faster than others, and I'll modify some of them to a slower or faster float rate.
Have you tried a deep diving minnow bait like a Berkley Flicker Minnow or Rapala Deep Tail Dancer? There are many of this type, and they may imitate a spearing/sand eel better.
PS, not that you need my advice, that was a hell of a day!
@@Fish-Erman I've done a lot with deeper diving jerkbaits - you can check out those videos on the channel. The ZipBaits Kaira is a favorite, as is the LC Pointer 78DD.
@@CookingandFishing Ah, OK, next rainy day I'll catch up with the program!
Are you fishing bay shorelines or straight up ocean?
Both!
Have you experimented with lipless crankbaits yet?
yup - th-cam.com/video/vHeoVWIzm8U/w-d-xo.html
What state are you catching these Flounder? Great lookin catches !!!
NJ/NY!
@@CookingandFishing I'm going to have to try this technique in Delaware. Do you ever do YT collabs at all?
@@302FISHING No, but good luck!
What state do you fish in?
NJ/NY!
virtual leason for black sea bass?
Haha that'd be a very short lesson - they are about the dumbest fish in the ocean (but super tasty!!!)
We can’t see how far you’re casting that bait ? Can’t be very far, you should be pulling up tuns of seaweed ? Where are you ? Thanks.
I'm casting far enough :)
