- Lure fishing techniques are developed through practice! If you don't know how to use fishing lures, specifically saltwater and inshore fishing lures, this video is for you! Follow us on Fishbrain! bit.ly/fishbrai...
The fishing lure you choose is crucial to a good day of fishing! Every fishing lure has its own function. Some are meant to stay about the surface of the water, others are meant to be used at the bottom. We are fishing for striped bass here in Maryland using topwater plugs. The “Spook” is a popular saltwater and freshwater fishing lure and it works wonders! We use a method called “Walk the Dog” to animate and give the lure action.

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 th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 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.
Seems like a nice guy that really wants to help people learn to fish. He is very lucky to have a wife/gf that is so supportive and actually fishes with him, that is his best catch so far!
Well said
I used your tips and caught my first fish on top water right before it got dark
I tried walking the dog with no luck, but found stopping every few seconds and letting the lure sit then giving 2-3 more tugs is when I kept getting bites. They would chase, sit and wait, and as soon as it was about to move again, I felt fish on.
Nothing like that feeling
When I was 17 about 46 years ago I actually caught 2 large mouth bass at same time on a Heddon Devilhorse topwater lure. It was awesome
@Jotaro Kujo PS
Great video series. It’s really amazing how two people can be using the same lure, and yet one person catches significantly more fish. Cadence, speed, or whatever can have so much to do with success. Sometimes you’ll hear a very experienced fisherman state that they had an off day. I believe that anyone that practices enough, really can tell when they are “off”. Just as musicians, golf players, or anyone that hones their skill and craft through practice. I fish about 275 days a year, and I know that when I get things right, I can feel it.
as bass fisherman or tuna fisherman here on the so cal coast, we use poppers and spooks all the time, even for yellowtail!!
Here because my husband has been lure fishing and I like to go with him. I’m trying to get better at it so we can have fun together!
I love your stuff - it is great to see talented people share their skills and knowledge. I know this is an old video, but I was surprised to see you using a treble hook... I converted all of my lures to single hook based on one of your own earlier videos!
Lol I fished that spot all the time growing up with my grandfather , I wish I could get out there more often , i ran into you down near Ocean City (not actually ocean city but won’t say where) have a good one brother
Great video, I am glad to see Erin fishing again. I enjoy watching your videos, I do learn quite a bit from watching your videos. I am wanting to start a fishing ministry at my church. I love teaching people how to fish,even though I get alittle agitated sometimes. It always pays off when someone who has never caught a fish gets one in,no matter how big the fish is. I am continuing to pray for you and your family and your friends. Keep up the good work.
Double on one is also why I love topwater, plus I like the forgiveness , if you miss one, you might get another chance .
I have had 7-8 attempts by bass
Hey Skipper thanks a million on the fishing tips 👌🏾
Mistake #4: never hook your lure onto your line guides eyes. It will damage the ceramic eye and wear out your line faster. That’s why they put a line keeper near the grip of your rod.
"Something is going on with the moon" lol.
This is why I love this channel. Amazing job !!!
Happy you enjoyed it
Milton loved to fish he passed 01-07-2021and taught me!I'm his wife Judi, so I got my fishing licence and I'm ready to go!So this app is GREAT!!!!
Thank you for making this video. I needed a lot of help trying to figure out what to do when using lures.
as a 18 yrs old and just getting started of the hobby thank you very much i really need this vedio 😁
Awesome! If you found this helpful you gotta check out my website, I custom make a ton of gear to help you with your next fishing trip! www.heyskipperfishing.com 😄
New fisher here man I never. Thoughts I'd find interest but I love how you have to know how to use and make the lure look believable and real to the fish and really I'm a catch aand release guy just checking out and being able to be close up to the species is crazy to me
A wonderful instructor. Michigan Fisherman 🤠
I use Fishbrain! It's awesome.
Same
Dude I legit died when I saw the emoji reaction to the double hookup lol, Scared the crap out of my girl who was sleeping. Good job and thanks for the tips.
I’m a new angler and I get what you mean by burned spots. A lot of my nearest fishing holes only have old, smart fish that don’t feed while the lake/park is open
I love you all!! I always tune in to watch you guys slay fish :)

Man finally! was waiting for you to upload your video !! Lol 😂 big fan all the way from New Zealand 🇳🇿!
Heeeeeeeyyyyye Skipper !! How about a video on the many colors of the lures and what colors to choose for salt or fresh water. Great video ... Nice family, ( By the way !!!)
Thank you for the tips! Greetings from Brazil! We live your vídeos!
Thank you for share experience
You two did good that morning now I see what i was doing wrong i was fishing my baits too fast but good video.
In Indonesia the technique is called ngoyor
Watching these videos makes me wanna go fishing so bad, but then I remember I suck at fishing and never really catch anything 😅
The more you get out there the better you will be!
I use to think the same thing. Watched the videos and practiced my line ties. Now I hardly ever get skunked. Keep trying!!
Thanks for sharing your insights Skipper Onelove.
this was very helpfull, iam still a newbe at fishing
Good stuff. Thanks for the advice. From Trinidad and Tobago
Happy to help!
Thanks for the good tips man
Yesterday I hooked a 2 or 3 lb bass on a Rebel crawdad lure. The bass hit the lure on the 3rd or 4th cast. I had my drag too loose because I wasnt able to get a strong hook set. The bass shook the hook after a few seconds. It was a learning experience though. I tightened my drag a little.
Nice tips skipper.... Love it. Hi from Bali
Teacher number one.🤠 Michigan angler.
MUY BUENO..SALUDOS DESDE CORRIENTES-ARGENTINA....
Hey skipper ooh ooo hey skipper
I know that spot u followed the lil concrete underwater path
been getting skunked regularly lately, and actually lost faith in my top water lures (i usually use a regular ol rapala jointed floater). definitely gonna try a couple different things with this new information, number 1 definitely being get a new reel. almost all of the rod-reel combos for sale in my area at beginner price points are high gear ratio, i haven't found one below 4:1 yet, and i've seen as high as 5.5:1. the second big thing is going to be slowing down and smoothing out my twitches and jerks. I'm thinking by virtue of retrieving too fast, i'm not giving the lures a realistic-, lifelike-enough action. Once i get these two things sorted, and some of the smaller details like spot selection (i'm thinking of returning to journaling my fishing trips in order to accumulate data to help with this), i'll bet i'll be getting bites again. I'll make a trip out to one of my skunk holes soon and reply to this comment with an update on how things went. looking forward to some improvement, i've only caught 3 fish this year, 2 of them were accidental hooks in the side, and none of them was over 8 inches (one was a baby striper i felt so bad about, hooked it clean through the tail muscle). aside from that, i've had 3 good fish on that all managed to spit the hook right before i yanked em out of the water. needless to say, it's been a bad season for me which is why i'm here lol
Definitely learned something, thank you 💯
How i wish i have rods and reels like yours. :)
Are those tips also applicable in shore casting?
You should take me fishing there 😜👍🏼
Your videos really helped me a lot! Thanks!
Great tips! Just ordered our squidy bits to try out here in the Savannah Georgia Intercoastal waters!
I caught many pompano and whiting with the squid while in Jacksonville. Good luck!
@@HeySkipper thank you!
I have Fishbrain and I love it and I also like your videos
🤜🤛
Thanks for telling me about the app
That app seems crazy useful
lure fishing is fun as well. wen ur using topwater, you are see fishing lol haha. my favourite species to target r trout perch and kahawai off nz
Those were really good tips thanks
Beautiful spot! Nice work.
Thx your tutorial
Greeting from indonesia
Very good ideias Thanks
This really good fishing and tip.
I’m not getting notifications on your videos. Not sure why. I clicked the bell.
Wow Josh saw you on the Canadian News up here in Ontario. that's big time :)
Great video and great tips.
Keep up the good work!
Use a top water hard bait, where it has spinning "propellers" and reel in fast. It'll splash water and make an aggressive fish mad, as to attack it. Barely missed a 9-12 lb fish (bass or catfish) couldn't tell at the distance.
Can u come to California and try fishing for rockfish or yellowtail?
Alex Pham y’all call em rockfish out there too? He probably calls them rockfish also but since not everyone watching is from Maryland he calls them striper
We called stripers, stripers here in California. Never heard anyone called them rockfish.
Tombie I meant like rock cod and other lingocod and stuff
Andrew Wolf no I call striped bass stripers, I meant like rockcod and other ground fish
@@alexpham7178 I guess I should have tag Andrew since I was taking to him.
Great tutorial Brandon thanks
You are very welcome!
Nice clip. I’m liking each and every one of your videos as I go along. Great work. I notice that you were using a mojo inshore with a split grip and double foot guides (7ft?) Any chance you can share that model number with me, I’ve been looking for one with all the checked boxes I mentioned. Thanks and stay safe. 👍
Can you come out to Long Beach California and fish here. It’s very tough. Especially freshwater
Im assuming you're talking about El Dorado Lake?
Yeah that’s one tough lake. I’ve only caught a couple times from eldo.
Thanks for the help ☺ 👍🏾
I don't know why, but I've never used a to water lure. I guess I'll have to give it a try.
I’m from the DC area and I never knew you catch a striper in the Potomac let alone that size. Potomac river is known for big blue catfish
3:04 My new excuse for not catching something! 🤣 But true.
Idk man I really reeled in quite fast mad but by God nailed a smashing 10lber bass
6:17 lol at first I thought you were using a paper clip for a snap
I tried it once when i ran out of swivels and it was saturday ( this is in israel and 99.9% of shops are closed here on saturday) and lost the rig when a fish took a bit
Thanks guy
Great video as always.
The Ebook link isn't working FYI.
I ve always fished saltwater..I'm just now getting into fresh water fishing
"Somthings going on with the moon"🤣
Since you like to teach people how to fish I think you should have ALL your videos translated to spanish you will gain a huge latino audience.. saludos from Honduras 🇭🇳👍😎✌🍻
@J G Lol not at all friend but he will gain thousands of new followers. Huge market to fish bass and salt water fish in Mexico and all latin america not many teachers in youtube the way BRanden does it.
amazing for tips thanks you sir
I reel then twitch my rod for action left or right I got a 27in Snook down in Florida in a small pond
Thanks 🎣
i dont agree when fish chasing your bait you have to slow down your retrieval. besides that, nice tips man.
Thanks bro power
06:55 great color
Another tip I've learned is always tie these lures with a loop knot.
Why
Ia previous video you suggested not to use the treble hook . These gives fish more damage, Specialy in catch and release .
When you coming down to California !! Santa Cruz área to fish off the wharfs
Dre Escamilla hey man I go to the wharf and other spots new Santa Cruz Capitola all the time, let’s meet up and fish!!
Dre and Raj! I’m at the Santa Cruz Wharf all the time! Meet up?
I wish you landed that double would have been so cool
I love how much Erin enjoys everything. it makes me appreciate everything more myself. I also love when your dad is filmed. I loved in the cape cod episode when he caught 2 huge strippers & returned them and said not to be greedy.
More video of Erin & your dad. also do some of the editing. don't make Erin do all the work. I'm a talker too so I know being in front of camera is fun for you and editing is a pain for a creative generous person like Erin. it is obvious she loves you and your family. I have many friends who are from different backgrounds as we're my parents. Follow your ❤ heart. Erin is your biggest fan. you know if you don't set the hook, the best fish can get away. they don't hang around forever.
keep fishing & caring as you clearly do.
This is such a wonderful and kind comment. Thank you for watching our videos and we are so happy that you enjoy them. We both love to work on these and we love working together. More videos with both Erin and dad to come 😊
You don't even know Erin, how do you know she doesn't like editing and is restricted by him?
They just got engaged!
Zachary Villa fax like tf
In Colombia, in the Fothills of the Andean in the jungle you just cast into the rockiest rivers with the highest rapids waters and you still catchs "Doradas" from 2lb up to 15lb more o less; might be those rules don't apply to such environment we have!
Man you're luckiest person in the world that ur wife accompanied u when u fishing 🎣
Nice that's a good tip
Good job bro
Thabks!
Great Visio thanks
Do the biggest bluefish tournament
Im new for fishing lure. How to catch it far for rock fish with lure. Those lure seem pretty light
I'm struggling with the same issue. How do we cast light lures out far and how far away is a good distance?? At maximum I'm only casting out 15metres on a 10gram lure
OMG THANK YOU
I'd like to just correct you on one thing. When a fish hits your lure, do not stop or slow down. This gives off an unnatural look and the fish will most probably leave your lure. What you're supposed to do is speed up to give off the natural look of the fish trying to get away.
I didn't even watch video but I subbed anyway,
Keep the vids going.
Thanks!
Distance-wise how far out is a good amount? Top water lures tend to be quite lightweight and my casting distance isn't quite far (15 metres) maximum... What am I doing wrong?
Did you use a ball bearings swivel further up the line?
You should get an RV and just travel the country fishing in every state!
0:00-0:05 bruh I don’t even know how to use a lure and am trying to learn how 😂
