I'd personally love to watch a series of you taking a kid. Veteran. Health care worker or any deserving person out for a day on the water to share your knowledge and some of their life story. Just my thoughts.

    Got one keeper today using the drift sock (don't have a trolling motor). It would be interesting to see if you switched the gulp to the high hook and the salt strong/scent to the lower. For me, the lower jig normally does better.

    Just a hint , that not a leak . Starcraft sucks for dain plug placement because of the center transom support , the bottom is rotted out , guaranteed. I alumaloyed the bottom of mine and drilled a 2nd drain , alumaloyed a pipe ( piece of extendable boat hook ) on center and very bottom , 2 drains now .oh and notched the bottom of the pipe inside for max drainage . Great vid as usual , i hope my fishing turns outas good as yours , going out of ri/ct

      Because trimming is only beneficial for short trailers. If I was using a strip, like in some of my bass videos, I would never trim.

    Hi John. The fluking has been horrible until 2 weeks ago in Western LI Sound near Port Chester. This time last year I caught twice as many fluke and twice as many keepers. The stripers here have been the best in years and the bait I saw last year is not around. Thanks for the dark gulp tip because it made a difference but they didn't hit it, they are hitting my sand eel spro teaser with a red mullet, as usual. I got a few mantis shrimp in them but I haven't seen any squid yet. You? Anything in the bellies of yours? Great day.

    I surf cast for fluke from back bays, inlets and ocean beaches in the daylight (mornings). Are overcast days better for Fluking from the beach? Does a bright sunny morning turn off the Fluke bite? I have caught a few Fluke at night but is Fluking at night considered less productive than daylight fishing from the beach? I don't have enough experience yet to see any difference?
