(S1 Ep119) DIY Jetty Cork, launch your bait w/ super simple design!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 тра 2018
- After taking a close look at the corks that were given to me. It was super easy to make my own. And for less than $5 a cork you can't beat it! Now you can launch your bait a mile away from the rocks.
Damm Mark this is the number one video on this topic 😮 👍 I’ve been sick in bed all week can’t wait to get out there again
Get well 🎣
Thanks.. I went to Surfside jetty's yesterday. 4 guys to the right of me had jetty corks. They caught pompano, Spanish , jack.. and I didn't catch anything but pin fish. They were getting there lines way out there with that rig. I went to ask the closest one to me what was the name of his rig but he didn't know the name of there was even a name. Next time I will for sure have this in my arsenal. Thanks again
Glad to help.
Good video. Very doable. Highly suggest getting a pad to work on when at the kitchen table. Gun cleaning mat works great. Keeps from potentially denting or chipping the table and keeps our better halves happier! Keep up the good work.
Great video on how to build the jetty cork rig. Many questions on how to tie to main line/bait line will be great. You say watch other videos but we would like to see the whole set up start to finish if possible. Thanks for all the great videos, very informational to all jetty anglers.
The Vietnamese have developed that cork over the years. It is unique to only those jetties. At Port Aransas, people use the same type of rig but use an empty lemon juice container filled with a little water ( for weight) instead. They call it the lemon rig. Anyway, Congrats on the catches! You have been tearing them up. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Mark, for this info... tight lines never stop!
The tape helps protect the float when it bangs against the rocks during retrievals.
Just made mine awesome video thank you for sharing greetings from South Texas.
There are commercial versions of a similar thing but I like this better because it has 2 floats to help keep the weight from sinking it too deep. You may want a 3 way swivel directly off the top so you don't need an extra one on your line but very cool. This brings me back to my early days of going to jetties and docks and learning what the locals do and replicating it with great success. Very cool bud... I love it
Awesome video and very informative. Keep up the good work.
I found this video very useful thanks Mark!
Thanks mark!! Nice video.
Good stuff bro!
We call them launcher bobbers... I like your design!
Enjoyed it. Would like to see some surf fishing as well!
Love the instructions
Love how you share the knowledge!! Keep it up!
Thanks for that tutorial Mark. ;)
think I asked for this video last week, you sure are Johnny on the spot. great job Mark.
Awesome video thank you
The downside to this setup is you can't control the depth of fishing very easily. It would be easier to use a weighted cork like he is showing with a bead on top and a cork stopper up the mainline that can be moved according to the depth you want to fish at. Then below the cork use a heavier egg sinker with a bead BELOW it, and tie the main line to your leader. That way you're not having to fool with a three-way swivel or extra line to cast. The mainline runs through the weighted cork and the bait gets taken down to the desired depth (set by the stopper on the mainline) by the egg sinker. It will also cast a mile too because when reeled up there is no extra line hanging around.
Excellent idea!
Hey hey, that's a great tip also. Thanks for sharing...I will definitely try that.
Thank you Mark!
Lol.....you learned how to make 1. Good job.
good stuff man. I've been wanting to know how to make them. I seen you out on the jetty today lol.
Pretty cool Mark!! I love the DIY approach to most things, especially fishing related tackle. I wonder of a bit of heat shrink instead of the black tape would work at the egg sinker end?
I was wondering where everybody was getting those awesome video.
For those of you who were unable to make them you can also buy weighted corks at Fishing Tackle Unlimited or Academy put his design seems to be a lot more identifiable as far as the cork length it would be a lot easier to see great stuff also it's kind of funny when you're older Jetties you try to throw out as far as you can but when you're in a boat you want to throw as close to the Rocks as possible but it's all good them fish running series all day long up and down the Jetties whatever the tide brings I seen the video that got me here that's a nice box of trout on any day
First I love the videos man hope to Fish with you one day stay tight
It's a modified launcher rig, you rig your line off the barrel swivel. Nice video man going to make some rigs.
Good info sr
I thank you very much for the rig details, we do a lot pier/jetty fishing in Baltimore,Md. Sure to catch something. Looking to come down dwn to San Antonio soon to get speckled trout , would like to link up always fun learning new rigs.
No speckled trout in San Antonio
I'll come to Freeport
finally !! a local texas angler, please keep the videos coming man!! when ever you need tackle, message me, i work at academy, i can help you collect your stuff and if needed get them ready for you to just stop on by
NICE! I might message you when I need some tackle. Thanks!
Great Video, I am very new to the jetty fishing stuff. Was in Freeport last week and realized very fast I was not prepared for it. Have a question, how to you rig it to your pole and how do you attach your hook? Thanks.
The tape is to reduce the drag on the jetty cork where the ball and the cork meet. I know a guy that uses heat shirk instead of tape.
Cool idea but where does the line go that leads to the hook ???
tie your leader to the top swivel where you tie on your main fishing line. Some on here mention the Flex Coat launcher from ebay. Looks legit...
Great stuff but how does the final setup look like I mean tie to the line with the hook or bait look like??
You just leaked the best kept secret of the Chinese jetty fishing science.
I wonder if you use a wire crimp to secure the wire on top by the swivel?
I like your videos if you ever come to Miami Florida You welcome to my house I live in the Everglades and I have the ocean close to me
FLEX COAT LAUNCHER
$8 Ebay shipped
I got a few in 2 1/2 oz these bad boys fly!!! Or you can make it yourself for a buck or two less
Cool thanks..for sharing...so does the leader n main line tie to the same swivel
Kayaklure85 that's what I would like to know , how do you you put a 7ft leader on that with the main line ? #MDLR
I think im going to use a three way swivel kinda like a lemon rig. Google "lemon rig fishing" so youll use 3.5 feet on the floater and 3.5 on the hook so youll be casting 2x 3.5 line when it hits the water itll sink 7foot. Also notice he used a split shot to weigh down the shrimp.
I briefly explain how to rig this setup in my previous video. Tie a 3 way swivel to the main line. Tie a 12 to 20” line to the cork. Then tie your leader line and add a split shot to it. Your leader line can be any length as long as you can cast it. My leader line was approximately 7 foot. So in total I had my shrimp down at a depth of 8 feet. That’s where the trout were feeding hard.
@@MDLRFishing can you add a link to your previous video? I cannot locate. Thank you, and tight linezzzz!!!!!
So in effect is this just a float with casting weight, with the trace (bait) coming off the top of the float. (In Oz we at times use floats but have never encountered a Jetty Float for casting distance?!)🎣🇦🇺🐟
Where do you put your line and hook? I think you put your line thru the top swivel and use a long line with a hook?
My two cents! Is it a possibility to add another swivel on the bottom of the sinker with a bead in between?
Thanks I was wondering how to make or where to buy...…..gracias
Make it a popping cork by having the swivel on both top and bottom run everything through and leave some space for the corks to move up and down to hit the beads id also use multiple larger beads can pick up like 200lb steel wire lead so its not kinked so easily
Nazzz, the electric tape very important, because cork may break when hit to the rock, prevent line stuck in the joint. The quay you say it "work ok" meaning you didn't use it long enough.
I am with Leo Ramirez on this awesome video but where does the hook part go ?
Cool
How long does the electrical tape hold up to the salt water and being banged against the jetty rocks? I'm thinking maybe a section of shrink tubing might work well instead of the tape. Don't know if shrink tubing comes in colors other than black though, but may take the abuse better. Just thinking outloud here. :)
The "jetty cork" (big friggin' bobber :) ) reminds me of the rigs (on just a smaller scale) I've seen the catfishing folks around here using.
not sure but the one I have with electrical tape is showing no signs of separation.
How do you tie the main line
Hey brother you tie both main line and leader on that top swivel?? I dont get how that would sit on the water .
It’s a three way swivel, one ring goes to main line. Second ring goes to the cork. Third one goes to the hook and split shot.
Should I put a swivel on the bottom of my egg weight ?? For my leader
No. Check out my hot jetty action video, I show how it’s rigged.
How do you connect the line for the hook
I show it on my video of Hot action at the jetties.
You can tie your mainline and the leader line to the same swivel. Adjust your leader line to different depths depending on where you're fishing and the feeding depth of the fish.
Do you have video of you fishing that rig sir
Check out some of my earlier jetty videos.
So do u rigg it to the rod and bait??
i show how to rig it in this video. ua-cam.com/video/aXkhGGCWL2Q/v-deo.html
Dumb question but where would you tie your leader line to? Because I only see where you would tie your main line to
Main line ties to a barrel swivel. Leader line and cork line ties to the other end of the barrel swivel.
@@MDLRFishing gotcha thank you!
lol hey that’s the asian trout secret!
we use the electrical tape so no one can see the setup haha
I knew you guys had secrets! Asians at my pier are secretive about their setups lol
😂
haha
blinky tran yeah yall boys be hitting everything out there.. Yall got secrets.. If yall gave one away yall got 20 more up yalls sleeve..
So when you’re fishing that on a 3-way swivel are you still watching for the cork to drop, or are you more feeling for the bite on the main line?
Watching the cork and you can also feel the bite.
How do you fish that cork
You’ll need a 10 to 12’ long rod. I don’t use this cork method anymore.
Daang you look so young bro its been 5 yrs
Fives years of bad eating will age you quickly. It’s a daily battle to do the right things for the body.
@@MDLRFishing haha hope you ate seafood for last 5 years. It’s hard to believe so much time had passed when you made this clip I still remember I was new to subscribe you saw this clip. But I believe fishing keeps you going no matter what age you are in your life. Its healthy, most productive, relaxing outdoor activity in my opinion and I’m sure you will agree with it. My work gives me a lot of stress day-to-day so watching your videos for last five years or so gives me a peace of mind relaxation when I get home to be honest with you. I also keep up with Nick along with you. Hey, when are y’all coming back together?
@@sarwatahmed3850 thanks brother, I completely agree.
Nick’s schedule is ever changing and hard to align with mine. Even though it doesn’t look like work. This is my job and I like to take weekends off to spend with my family.
Hey Mark you may or may not remember me we met at surf-side Bucky it was you and nick there already outside i walked up to you guys we took selfie together. I think i shares the pics with you guys later on the channel
Haha got the picture of us 3
Can you explain the exact setup as to connecting my line and bait
12” line connects cork to three way swivel. 7’ leader line to the three way swivel and other end of leader line to the hook. Place split shot 12-20” up from hook. Connect main line to the free end of the three way swivel.
MDLR Fishing thank you sir!!!
Why doesn't he try the lemon rig?
That seems to be more of a S. Texas thing.
Haha. At 4:30..... Mistakes were made.
Are go to academy and buy the outcast by miscoast products
weirdfish weirdfish how much weight is on it?
I saw the outcast corks, they didn’t have enough weight on them. The less weight means you have to whip your line out there for the distance. That translates to my shrimp being ripped off during the cast. This cork let’s me fling my line out there without all the force. Different strokes for different folks. Whatever works as long as we all catch fish that’s all that matters.
Never paid attention to the weight think I will try both what size egg weight do you recomend
You should sell them $$$ I would buy
There is a thing called a launcher float i think actual name is rocket float. I use 4 inch pear float with stainless wire and 2 oz sinker on bottom and swivel on each end . But i use a wire form bender for lure making . There is guy UA-cam that shows how to make them think he uses them for crooker or something in Florida. If I find link ill share with you.
This needs to be a Secret👀👀👀👀
😂😂😂 nice attempt
Considering the amount of gear you don't have and the purpose built weighted jetty floats out there, hit up a tackle store, take pictures and buy what you need. As someone stated already you dont show or even have a spot to tie on a quick leader. Thinking you forgot on both your rigs the barell swivel at the bottom of the weight.
The oriental man was nice enough to give you one and there you go giving out his secret to everyone...smh... lost my sub
With all do respect could you possibly not leave this video up for months on end... It’s kinda nice to have a little trade secret.
