    The crew on the Blu J is the real deal. The Bluejacket II fishing next to them for a good part of the day while John was shooting this video. Every time I looked up they were boating another fish while we struggled to get bit. Great video John. And great comments too. Good luck with the new rod. It certainly is a producer. And congratulations to Captain Rick and the rest of the crew. Please give him my best wishes.

    Hello John. I’m a 12 year old fisherman who goes to my grandparents house on Long Island to fish. I love it there and I caught my first striped bass last year. It was around 30 inches from the surf. I love your videos they are educational and informational which is awesome. Great video. It would mean a lot if you could heart my comment or say something back. 🤟

      Several dozen wedding balloons were picked up off Weekapaug Beach up here in Rhode Island two weeks ago. With the prevailing southwest winds, they may have come over from Long Island, perhaps from the same source as those John and company fished out. There should be a law against releasing such balloons. Littering at its worst. And those paper bags hot air balloons with little candles burning in them! We had one come down in our yard during a very hot dry spell. Luckily no brush fire started from it.

    I checked out that new rod John and I love the feeling of the bend throughout. Def transfers that stress more evenly. Only thing is the handle. I’ve tried those split handles on freshwater rods but they just don’t feel comfortable to me. I really prefer the full cork or EVO handles that run the length of the grip under the reel like your old tsunami classics. Any chance we could release a dark matter with the full handle sometime?

    • @JohnSkinnerFishing
      @JohnSkinnerFishing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      We won't change the butt. There's not much exposed blank there. The grip at the base of the butt is flat on the sides and long enough to brace against the forearm bottom. If you can handle one, I think you won't have a problem with this split grip.

    What makes this dark matter rod different from the nexus?

    • @JohnSkinnerFishing
      @JohnSkinnerFishing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      First is that you don't need to take a hacksaw to it and replace the tip. The Nexus rods I used the last couple of years were 7-footers cut down to 6'8''. The slightly shorter rod is easier to jig and allows action to be put on heavier bucktails. Uncut, the tip was too soft IMO for the heavier jigs. If you then compare the cut 6'8'' Nexus to this 6'8'' Dark Matter rod, you'll find that the Dark Matter rod bends in the middle, vs the Nexus that bends mostly near the top of the rod. That Dark Matter parabolic bend allows for bouncing heavier jigs, while still being nice for fishing jigs down to 1.5 ounces. When you have a fish on the Dark Matter, the rod is like a shock absorber because with the bend in the middle you're using the whole rod. Nexus rods are good too, but this was designed to address the things I just mentioned.

    Why two jigs? For weight? I have always found that a single jig is all that is needed (yes, real deer hair "bucktail")...that or live bait. Cut bait just messes up the boat. Those aren't even particularly big fish. When they are biting like that you can catch them on gold hooks and pork rinds.

    • @JohnSkinnerFishing
      @JohnSkinnerFishing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Unfortunately they rarely bite like that. Two offerings gives higher visibility and offers fish a choice. Also, if one Gulp gets cut off by a fish, fluke or otherwise, there's still a good one in the water.

      Please send your question to info at striper pursuit dot com, or ask here. I don't do much with Instagram. I actually just realized that there are messages! I've got a whole bunch from people who probably think I'm ignoring them.

      @@JohnSkinnerFishing so I really like your videos and want to get a new fluke rod and reel. I’ll be using it for ocean fluking and a trip up to Mass to fish Nantucket shoals on the Angler. Last year on this trip at one point I was using 24oz lead so that’s one thing I need to consider. What do you recommend?

    • @JohnSkinnerFishing
      @JohnSkinnerFishing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I really can't advise you intelligently on fishing 1.5 pounds of lead. One of the guys we fish with (Sweeney) went there last year and fished our standard fluke gear like is used in this video and cleaned up with fish to 11 pounds. He described it as "easier than Montauk". I understand that is not always the case. If I was going there I'd bring the outfit used in this video, and one generic heavier rod that could comfortably fish 1 to 2 pounds of weight. I guess I'd rig that heavier one with 30# line, but I have to wonder if the use of thicker line is what's causing the need for so much lead in the first place. I've not fished there, so I can't really say.

    Not for nothin, but bucktails and teasers are bait. Unless you are convincing a fish with eyes on the top of its head to hold the end of your line until you net them, you're using bait.

    Hey John I'm very concerned about the striped bass population, every night I go out and fish and poachers slaughter as many as they can. I don't think amendment 7 will be enough to help stripers in the near future. Have you noticed any decline in fishing over time? The only solution I can see is have coastal states increase their funding into environmental police and put a memorandum on stripers for at least 5 years. Do you have any connections you can speak to to try to get the Atlantic fisheries commission to step it up and do what is necessary?
