    The Squid at 5:50 is one of the coolest things i've seen.

    Unreal!
    I’ve never targeted flounder before, but I just signed up for a local derby and I’m now cramming in all the knowledge I can before the weekend. Thank you for all the information you share on your channel!

    Absolutely amazing video! So much life and fish behavior that we don't see or understand. Seeing the fluke's reaction to the bucktail/gulp vs the strip was my biggest takeaway. Also fascinating to see how many fish look at the strip and don't eat it. Thanks again John!

    Wow John! This was a real treat, I thoroughly enjoyed it!!! Fished for fluke on my kayak the last two days here on Staten Island with nothing but a few cocktail blues hitting my gulp, this video is inspiring to say the least! Keep em coming, thanks!!!

    Just unbelievable video! This is the best yet! What's funny is what's happening in the mind's eye of the fisherman, has nothing to do with what's actually happening on the bottom. All I can say is " More, More, Please!

    John, All your previous videos are great. I've learned so much from them as well as reading all your books. Now with the addition of the wolf cam, your videos are next to none. I look forward to seeing additional footage to enhance what I've learned from your videos and books. I look forward to meeting you one day on the surf.

    @EliasVFishing 9 років тому +21

    Several fish over ten pounds that I have taken opted for the bucktail and Gulp! over a live bait (bergal) that was sitting in the adjacent rod holder. I really hope you get an opportunity to drop this down over an active bunker school at some point.

    John, I have to give you tons of credit, you certainly know how to find fish. The vids are great. Seeing that many fluke together, makes me think the fishery is on the comeback. Showing the swimming towards you after hooked is classic as I have been surprised more than once with these slick bastards. Thanks for the vid and fish on!

    I have been looking for feeding information on flounder and this is fantastic. This explains a lot, I fish flounder in the UK and the behaviour appears the same, sometimes you just don't know their hookedWould love to see gurnard and dogfish feeding behaviourKeep up the good work

  • @fishingmagazine7935
    @fishingmagazine7935 8 років тому +2

    Now THAT is cool! I've flounder fished all my life and this is the first time I've ever seen a flounder hit underwater. Their behavior after the strike tells me I need to set the hook as soon as they hit if I'm fishing jigs or lures with multiple hooks. Live bait? Do a live bait video! ;) Awesome stuff. Keep it up!

    This camera would be great to see on a bucktail rig fishing a rip for bass... Reefs are slow on the north shore of Long Island Sound here in CT as of 5/29. Saw a lot of boats dragging strip baits off of Greenport over the weekend not sure how they fared. Another great video please keep them coming. Anyone watching these videos that hasn't read John's books yet needs to read them. I learned more in reading one chapter of one of his books than I could learn in 5 season of fishing.

    the flounder is a surprising fish. Them being flat with two eyes on top i always saw them as being this kind of derpy fish but they are surprisingly quick and hit that bait pretty hard at times.

  • @authbrannon
    @authbrannon 4 роки тому

    I'm used to fishing those on land in long island, 2oz sinker with bloodworm on a straight shank. If you put tension on the line, when you get a hit you'll actually see the line loose tension. When you set the hook they will curve their tail downward and dig in the sand.
