SKIP CASTING ACTION with a baitcaster
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- Skip casting soft plastics for Mangrove Jacks has to be one of the most exciting ways to fish. From a kayak takes it to another level. The high repetition of casts and close quarters makes it an ultimate adrenalin rush that any mad keen lure fisho simply has to experience. After cruising and firing casts this way, your game transforms into a possessed trance state of heightened nerves and anticipation which i can't describe. I hope, in some way, you get a sense of what i'm trying to describe form this video and maybe even become inspired enough to learn the art of skip casting and give this style of lure fishing a try.
This footage has been taken from my DVD and downloadable full length film series - The Kayakers Guide To The Gold Coast. I am currently releasing parts of these videos to help you get your fishing fix during the COVID19 isolation restrictions.
Make sure you SUBSCRIBE to my channel so you don't miss out on these videos. 3 vids per week ;)

Keep them coming thanks
Cheers Owen. Lots to come mate ta
Love how you can’t contain your excitement. The contrast of how stealth your approach is then outburst of excitement when you get a hit. I’m the same. Maybe minus the stealth approach. Loved your message at the end too man. We all need to find a way to be a better version of ourselves. My wife says the same thing to our kid when she goes for a walk and he doesn’t want her to go. She tells him that the reason she goes is that when she comes back she is a better mummy for him. A better version of herself.
Absolutely awesome video. Love your vids mate 👍
what a sensational vid!!
I'm not gonna lie watching this is better than anything on Netflix stan, prime, and Disney and I have them all, and the music through the sound system my partner thought I was watching a war movie I said you are its called John flik🤣

Great job John. My favourite fishing you tuber. You do a great job. Great work on the cameras and giving great info and handy tips. You deserve great things for your effort and commitment. Wish one of my teachers at school was a fishing nut. Wouldn’t be much school talk goin on. Keep it up mate, love your stuff. Cheers
Great action..Is that a DC bait caster?
Cheers David. It’s the older style Curados ;) not a DC.
Super awesome compilation. Thanks for the vids, helps a ton when struggling with fishing withdrawal syndrome during quarantine. Haha!
That was what I needed Johnny, my fix from you to stop me going nuts in isolation.... "Jack Fishing It Hurts So Good" ... I need the T-Shirt.

As someone struggling to learn with the baitcaster... this is godly!
Good to see a lot of fishing and catching in this video
What is your setup for skip casting? How long is the rod? What poundage? Reel ratio?
Gday Nash. I’ve done a couple videos on it all about 6 months ago. Some real detail in them. Basically it’s a 5’10 3-6kg stick and a Curado 7.3:1 reel running 20lb.
Top shelf old mate cracking vid you a inspirational 🤙🎣
Cheers Brendan ;) stoked you’re enjoying em mate.
the ending sub title, top notch john. cheers.
What weight do you typically reach for to skip plastics easily?
I understand that depth of water and speed of current will also dictate but for ease of skipping, what would be your go to weight?
Hey mate. I generally go with around 1/4 oz
For all those asking he uses a curado and a 3-6 kg rod. Usually Shimano bass raider. Short rod for control. And whippy.
Awsome, when im back working again, ill put in an order for all of your DVDs. Im sure others will do the same. 👍
The birds in the background sound great, that is a nice spot !! Where is it 😂😁
Be buggered if I can skip cast!! Tried so many time but just can't get it
It’s a frustrating way to gettin it Steven I can attest to that.
Epic!
Good to see the passion 👌
Mate what is the length of your baitcast rod? Cheers
Great to watch.
Is it starting to cool down a little for Jacks?
They’re still around Bruce. I haven’t been fishing for a couple weeks now but the boys I follow who have are still doing well ;)
Looked great. Well done mate 🎣👌
Hi mate what size rod you useing to skip the plastic a round thanks
Hi mate. I use a 510 3-6kg rod. The short rod helps with my accuracy and the whippy blank helps skip em in ;)
Brother~ What length of the rod are you using?? Thanks for reply (:
Hi Levi, it’s a 5’10 medium action
Epic video mate🤟
Another question if I may , in your kayak what battery do you use to for the minn Kota?
Hi Dean ;) I run a 90aH and it goes all day just cruising no worries
mylurebox lithium ?
Awesome stuff Johnny, Can see why you love the Jack fishing up those creeks. Do you get Barra up those creeks?
JOHNNY IS A BLOODY LEGEND!!! the sreason I got into fishing was from these videos and ever since I’ve been hooked 😉! I’ve even made a UA-cam Chanel of my own. I posted my first fishing vid last night and have a part two coming out Friday 👌🏽 thanks again legend love your work
Brilliant stuff Brayden. That’s super kind of you mate. I’ll have to check it out ;)
Good video mate. Just subscribed
Thanks mate appreciate it
If someone asks you for a rock skipping battle do you just pull out the rod?
Hahaaaa. Brilliant stuff. I did pull a drone from the top of a gum tree second cast once ;) Hahaa. Gold bomber got it done.
What's name your rod
It’s a Bass Raider by Shimano 3-5kg 510
@@mylurebox thanks brother.. im from indonesia
What rod and reel do you use for skip casting, i tried it but couldnt get the lure skipping at all.
Fc thailand l live you fishing Mangroup jack
I am just trying to learn baitcasting and I keep getting birds nests if I don't have my thumb on the spool the whole time. I noticed in your video you are arent using your thumb at all. Do you have any secrets that prevent backlash on your baitcaster? I have a pretty cheap daiwa so not sure if that's the problem
He's got his thumb on the spool all the time. He talks about it elsewhere, gets a blister.
@@MrScrofulous gave up on that 2 years ago 😁
You can cast the absolute christ out of that rod.
Bro u talk more than u fishing 😓😓
