Mr. Skinner, i'm new to Long Island and i bought a kayak a month ago and i cant wait for the summer heat to get in the ocean. Only thing is, aren't you a bit afraid of sharks ?

are you using the standard GoPro headstrap mount? Is it tethered or attached to a float?

Luey POST - 11 years ago

John I have to say that I've read both of your books and wanted to thank you for sharing some of your experience and secrets. Mostly want to thank you for sparking my interest in bucktailing, being a novice for the last 4 years I had never knew the old lead heads were so versatile. Any who aside from the thanks I also wanted to ask you what your opinion is on the spinfisher v (specifically the 4500) I'm on the fence about which size to purchase. Because I want a single reel that I can interchange between a 7 foot inshore rod and a 9 foot surf rod. Is the 4500 a size ideal or should I choose a step above it?

Brett O'Connell - 11 years ago

Mr Skinner I saw you had leashes on your paddle and rods, are those home made or did you buy them?

I agree with pumpkin28ful a rod and reel video would be interesting again though great. Videos!

Alexis lemus - 11 years ago

I used bait stripes and i didnt catch anything. I switched to worms and caught a couple of porgies with my dad today

pumpkin28ful - 11 years ago

john, could you possibly do a video on all the tackle and rod/reels you use for stripers blues fluke etc... just wondering

John Skinner Fishing - 11 years ago

A 4500.

John Echterhoff - 11 years ago

John; it appears you are using one of those new Penn spinning reels. Which size is that one your using? gracious.

30. comment for Kayak Fishing for Flounder

John Skinner Fishing - 11 years ago

Definitely. I used to do that before switching to Gulp.

Tom Hanlon - 11 years ago

You seem to only use Gulp in your bucktailing for fluke videos. Do you think that bait strips on a bucktail would work as well? Thx, Tom

John Skinner Fishing - 11 years ago

I didn't need to taper the meat. The fillets on the smallish brown robbins were fine uncut. I cut the larger fillets from the orange robins lengthwise, and that was it.

1973Saved - 11 years ago

John, have you tried Gulp Alive (6" or 7") belly strips? I yes, how do you like them?

1973Saved - 11 years ago

John, I just started making & using belly strips the past couple weeks, wish I could have seen a lttle more detail on how you make yours, was wondering how much meat you leave on them, do you taper the meat toward the tail of the the bait, does shape matter very much? Thanks.

Bill Clinzel - 11 years ago

Jon...do you guide?

LoverDino - 11 years ago

what kidn of flounder is that

BluChunk - 11 years ago

alright thanks anyways

BluChunk - 11 years ago

thanks you!!

kjkrichter - 11 years ago

ive tried them with a friend and they taste bad for my likings but people do eat them :)

kjkrichter - 11 years ago

I have tried the gulp sand worms and they don't work that well. I usually catch 5-10 porgies when i go out and when I used this I caught one sea robin. I got some hits but after that hit they didnt come after it. I would get like a small pack of it if you want to try it out.

John Skinner Fishing - 11 years ago

I've not fished them plain, so I don't know.

BluChunk - 11 years ago

this isnt about the video or anything just wondering do the gulp sand worms work cause when me and my dad fish porgy we use sandworms and i kinda want to try the gulp ones but dont know if they work and dont want to waste the money on them

Cool video

MIKEDAMIEN3 - 11 years ago

John i see you are using two other rods and reels besides the penn spin fisher, can you tell me what they are?

Gabbos Ironfist - 11 years ago

Thats a cute little kayak, can I ask whats the make and model of that bad boy?

Shawn Barham - 11 years ago

Nice video.

Ryan Lesko - 11 years ago

James, I have heard of sea robin soup, however, sea robins tend to be very tough. These fish are very bony and rough so I suppose the tail can be filleted, although there will not be a lot of meat
