I tried my best to include and explain every tip I could think of when it comes to skipping fishing lures! Here are some extra ones that I accidentally missed: - Use a bullet weight stopper if you're Texas rigging with a bullet weigh - Complete your casting motion all the way like you would a golf swing and finish it by bringing your tip up (watch slow-mo to see what I mean)
Thank you for the information Fletcher! While i agree most people should not try to skip a jig at first. I, myself would rather learn to skip the hardest thing possible and that itself will make everything else way easier to learn. I appreciate you and your help. Much love fam!
I just ordered a baitcaster and I'm so happy to see this before I go ahead and ruin the first day with it trying to skip lol I'll def try with my spinningrod first
*Awesome reel, **enjoyable.fishing** recommend especially for the price! No problems so far. Reeled in a 14lb laker yesterday and performed great. (5-10 min reel in time) Love the drag adjustment.*
I've looked up every available skipping video I could find over the last few months. This is by far the BEST SKIPPING VIDEO OUT THERE PERIOD!!!!! Thanks Fletcher
Probably looked for a good hour on the internet and half watched 10 different videos before I found yours. Kudos to you my dude on a great, very in depth detailed, video. Now to get on the water to practice. Thanks bro. Tight lines yo!!!
Your instruction to begin the learning process with a spinning reel was priceless. Emphasizing the need to chose a stout fast action rod and use a "fast "casting motion and aim for it to hit the water close to the starting position were also very important tips not included in most other how-to videos. Great job.
Yes! FTF coming on the scene with the in-depth tutorial content we've all been waiting for 🔥 I am slowly getting better thru practice. I have been watching your technique closely and trying to emulate, and the other day I skipped a swimbait all the way inside a cement drainage pipe 3 times on a dirt cheap baitcaster worth $90. Not gonna lie I was super proud lol
I've been waiting for this video! I'm tired of bird nesting, I know practice makes perfect but these details help so much! Thanks my guy! Love the content, keep it up!
Dude I literally looked on yours and Noah's channel earlier today for a tip video on skipping and was bummed. Now you post one haha. Keep up the great work man
I have been wanting to try and learn to skip a bait for a while now, I always see these great spots but they have so much cover above them that I haven't been able to hit them. This video was incredibly helpful and I'm slowly getting better now. Also I just subscribed after I saw this video lol, thank you for this video:)
Thats the best HOW TO Skip video Ive ever seen Fletch, You can def explain something in depth really well! Much appreciated broski... Can't wait for the next vid!
I've never once successfully done it. I always end up missing the water over and over because my muscles have years of sidearm casting memory. Then I eventually overcorrect to be sure to hit the water and end up dunking my lure at full speed and create a massive birds nest.
Practice, practice and actually seeing some results. The electric tape on the spool is probably the single best tip to save the entire spool of line. Thanks again 👍👍
I did it by accident a few weeks ago. From a kayak. But it was not a series of tiny skips like yours. Mad skills you! I’ll probably blow up my reel tomorrow.
This is the video I've learned from. Very detailed & informative. Love skip casting & this is the only technique I use now unless I'm trying to burn a lure through the air to get distance.
haha- i just said to my fishing pal that skipping is the same as we know as "fletchern" in german:its called differently though..it means to skip a stone above the water..we said it almost only in our family -- and the next i know i see your vid , you named fletcher...doing that trick.. hahahaha. Tight lines ,man
Wow you are great at showing people how to skip. New to bass fishing. So I keep looking up info on new tips. I have been at it since spring. I don't even want to catfish as much. I have 30 years of catfish exp. But the fast bites and how they like to run with your line I'm hooked on Bass. Keep up the great videos.
Great video man! Honestly I wasn't thinking about subbing but as I watched the video and actually understood and learned from you I changed my mind. Got a new sub and like from me! Looking forward to seeing your content more, keep it up brother!
Thanks for doing this video finally I’ve been wanting to learn how to skip but couldn’t find any videos that are detailed like this one is so thanks for that fletcher it’s appreciated so I’m finna go learn tomorrow lol wish me luck
Bro this is awesome I’ve been waiting on someone to teach this bc I’ve tried and failed miserably. It fishing on Logan Martin in Alabama it’s a lot of docks and I can never get under them. I think this will help. Keep it up bud
This is perfect timing for me I just tried starting to skip last time I went fishing and was putting off looking for a how to video. Thanks FTF for the tips!
Thank you Fletcher that was an awesome how to video bro. I've been waiting for this and you delivered brother. Very well explained keep up the great content bro.
Dude I’ve literally been thinking I need to learn how to skip Lol! Thanks for the cid and the great tips! Might need to work on it this winter while I’m not fishing
Thanks for the tips,i'm starting to use the baitcaster. We don't have Bass in our country but i think it works for pike and perch too. Keep up the good work!
Wow great tips you mentioned something and soon as you said it caught my eye and thats looking at the water where you want the lure to start skipping i believe thats my problem and didnt realize till you said it
gotta say...first time viewer...skipping tips brilliant..the most important part of what i observed here was the reference to broad athletics...picking the sport up in my late 30s not knowing shit to getting competitive in my early 40s has a lot to do with being able to hit a golf ball correctly, throw a slider, ride a skateboard/snowboard, throw a lacrosse ball. in early old age, all of these activities have only made fishing more physically enjoyable, at the same time prepared the mental side of it
Good evening 🌌🌆 my Fellow Fisherman, Thank You 😇🙏 for this information on skipping lures, especially when using a spinning rod as a first time to develop the appropriate method in casting to your intended target 🎯💯. I will incorporate this technique on my next fishing 🎣🦈🐟 expedition! 😉 Sincerely CJG Sr.😊😊

the video we have all been waiting for!!! You should do a part 2 with KTB. KTB and Fletch The Skip Brothers!
So glad you did this fletch thank you, I have been practicing for weeks and couldn't nail it. This was a big help
I appreciate any "How To" tutorial videos. I skipped one day and didn't mean. I don't know what I did. Thanks
Waw amazing
Thank you for the information Fletcher! While i agree most people should not try to skip a jig at first. I, myself would rather learn to skip the hardest thing possible and that itself will make everything else way easier to learn. I appreciate you and your help. Much love fam!
I just ordered a baitcaster and I'm so happy to see this before I go ahead and ruin the first day with it trying to skip lol
I'll def try with my spinningrod first
The professor has showed up ladies and gentlemen. School is in session. Fire content.
Professor Dangle at your service😎
This was super helpful, I've been practicing quite a bit using some of the tips in this video and I'm finally able to skip a lot better.
*Awesome reel, **enjoyable.fishing** recommend especially for the price! No problems so far. Reeled in a 14lb laker yesterday and performed great. (5-10 min reel in time) Love the drag adjustment.*
No tf you didn’t
I have tried to find a good skipping video for a year now. By far the best one I've seen yet.
Glad to hear that! I hope you’re skipping like a boss in no time😎👊🏼
I've looked up every available skipping video I could find over the last few months. This is by far the BEST SKIPPING VIDEO OUT THERE PERIOD!!!!! Thanks Fletcher
Fletcher I landed my first skipping fish today. This vid really did help me thank you so much for breaking it all down for me.
Probably looked for a good hour on the internet and half watched 10 different videos before I found yours. Kudos to you my dude on a great, very in depth detailed, video. Now to get on the water to practice. Thanks bro. Tight lines yo!!!

Not gonna lie, skipping a lure is so satisfying!
I've done it thousands of times and when I hit a really good one my hair still sticks up😂
FINALLY!! A detailed how to video on skipping. Definitely subbed.
I’ve never heard anybody talk about the actually settings of the spool tension knob and the breaking system. Appreciate the help 🤘🏼
That would be the most important part and other videos skip it? Sheesh.
Dude I literally looked on yours and Noah's channel earlier today for a tip video on skipping and was bummed. Now you post one haha. Keep up the great work man
Really appreciate your honesty on price range and mistakes made
I have been wanting to try and learn to skip a bait for a while now, I always see these great spots but they have so much cover above them that I haven't been able to hit them.

Thats the best HOW TO Skip video Ive ever seen Fletch, You can def explain something in depth really well! Much appreciated broski... Can't wait for the next vid!
The biggest tip that helped was was not to look at the water but the target thanks for the tips
You actually covered a couple things no one else has. And believe me, I’ve watched quite a few! Keep up the good work. I enjoyed it!
I think this is one of the best examples I've ever seen you hit some things other people don't. 👍😎
I've never once successfully done it. I always end up missing the water over and over because my muscles have years of sidearm casting memory. Then I eventually overcorrect to be sure to hit the water and end up dunking my lure at full speed and create a massive birds nest.
This is one of the best how to skip fishing lure. Great camera work. I like how you show the roll cast. Thanks 😊
That ZATA combo is underappreciated IMHO. I love that combo for moving baits the reel alone is smooth and casts like a boss
Practice, practice and actually seeing some results. The electric tape on the spool is probably the single best tip to save the entire spool of line. Thanks again 👍👍
Fletcher, you always manages to make the weekend even better!
OMG thank u soooooooo much for making this vid I've been asking every fishing youtuber I know!!👍👍👍
Best video on skipping a bait I have seen!
I did it by accident a few weeks ago. From a kayak. But it was not a series of tiny skips like yours. Mad skills you! I’ll probably blow up my reel tomorrow.
I bought one of those Zata Combos on sale for $149 recently. I really love that little combo. It’s becoming one of my favorites.
Great tip about the skip starting as a roll cast. Thanks!
This is the video I've learned from. Very detailed & informative. Love skip casting & this is the only technique I use now unless I'm trying to burn a lure through the air to get distance.
Thanks for teaching me I have always wanted to know how to skip
Yes Sir, finally I am about to learn to skip like a Boss! Thanks Fletcher
Ayeeee I hope you get it down soon👊🏼

I been waiting for this...thanks Fletcher!
