SKIPPING A JIG (You're Making It Too Hard)

[@ryanrodriguez2736]

Absolutely insane skill! And the newer video of you skipping is incredible. I could watch an entire video of just skipping baits 😂 ASMR style. Despite my best efforts I cannot skip, yet here I am a year later trying to watch these again!

[@Floridafisherman5000]

Wow, you're so accurate with the skipping!! Will take me some practice to get it even close to your skill!!! Great video!

[@tr33forthought48]

I love fish tips vids with real time results. Appreciate you brother

[@williamtennill6744]

Big fan of Diawa reels for but for flippin and pitching I’ve fell in LOVE with the lews SP(skip and pitch ) ..light durable ..and made for both ..only holds 40 yards line ..caught a 5 on the finesse flipping jig this week ..ur great at skippin..my 2 fav ways to fish skippin and pitching

[@jaketheraper5057]

This video is single handedly responsible for over 8,000 blown up reels.

[@JacobE-23]

I might make that 8001 lol.

[@weisswurstfruhstuck8523]

Yep aaaand 8002 here. 😂😅

[@J-Burgerz]

8000 and counting…

[@chilson.fillips]

I worry about overrun on a bait caster with skipping. I've gotten pretty good at skipping a wacky rig on a spinning reel. Need to practice this.

[@mrpickles2170]

been trying around the world cast and over hand. I think soon I'll try skipping! Just need some jigs and new line. Thanks for the tips wish me luck!!!

[@chrism5365]

Thanks of all your videos. you've taught me so much

[@brianshelton4888]

Thank you for the clear explaination.

[@kevinflabouyfishing5739]

Great tutorial just got a couple things start by finding docks with more space between the lake when u are beginning than this guy lol he was super advanced lol I think a lighter jig 1/4, 3/8 may give easier skip as a beginning person as well

[@shakeyhead0079]

you got some serious skipping skills! Can you do a video on backhand skipping?

[@BassFishingHQ]

Yessir, I will plan on doing that in the future

[@nivaldo3701]

Top, qual tamanho da vara para o arremesso skipping

[@davehorn1422]

You're videos are awesome, thank you for sharing

[@BassFishingHQ]

Glad you like them!

[@michaels1423]

I skip with a 6’9” med heavy with 15# flouro. Brian Thrift style. And angles play a big role.

[@raygissendanner1476]

Thank you for the information I have skipped a buzzbait

[@shihanjulio]

I want to learn how to do this !!! Can you practice this daily in the yard or driveway using a dummy lure to learn the technique ??? Great video.

[@dip30ful]

Yes. Just use a bullet weight. Practice on pavement or baseball dirt infield.

[@terrykloster9121]

Been dock skipping for many years. Always prefer a spinning rod for this technique

[@parmesean7584]

But style points for the casting reels

[@paling1872]

Spinning rods are a lot easier to manage, do you fish a moderate or a moderate fast?

[@terrykloster9121]

@@paling1872 medium heavy shorter the better

[@justinwylie3522]

I use the pitch skip with a swim jig specially around docks

[@bon3y4rd]

You make that look really easy.

[@Bankfishindude]

My favorite part about learning to skip is….wait never mind I’m terrible at skipping!! I may as well throw a few lures in the lake and leave lol!

[@davidblissfulbee8633]

Are you using a Diawa Tatula?

Merry Christmas!

[@tylernegron4131]

What rod is that you are using.

[@paulrowe4502]

Kind of a simple question but when feathering where would the thumb contact the spool, lower toward the reel seat or more up on top of the spool?

[@BassFishingHQ]

Typically my thumbs rests partly on the release lever and the top part of my thumb is on the spool. Keeping part of your thumb on the lever allows you to be very constant with how much tension you put on the spool with your thumb

[@paulrowe4502]

@@BassFishingHQ I'll give it a shot.

[@jujuandjoel]

Nice video! Quick question, which braking system would you say is better for skipping; magnetic or centrifugal? Thanks

[@BassFishingHQ]

Honestly I have never side by side compared them. I think either one of them will work, but magnetic might be a little faster

[@jujuandjoel]

@@BassFishingHQ would be cool if you did a comparison. I could try myself but I can tell you’re a bit better at skipping than me. Thanks for the reply!

[@BassFishingHQ]

@@jujuandjoel well when the ice gets off my lakes I will do it. Make for a good video

[@justinmosakowski4940]

What kind of rod is that

[@mandogfish7418]

complete numbers of that rod please. lure weight, line rating, length and brand ect.... ty nice vid

[@BassFishingHQ]

7.0 M/H Fast Action Rod, 1/2oz Jig with 4 inch Strike King Rage Craw, 20lb Seaguar AbrazX

[@BD1JR]

What brand/model & rod/reel

[@ajmekenzy2362]

@@BD1JR I believe it’s a diawa tatula 100, not for sure but is definitely a diawa

[@davehorn1422]

Great video

[@BassFishingHQ]

Thanks Dave!

[@hutmode8910]

Very cool video

[@jerrycai2039]

can you skip a spinning wheel?

[@Oldbasshole]

Way easier than a casting reel

[@lakeratatouille]

That took some real self control not throwing out where the baitfish were being chased lol

[@bigmercury1]

Is it easier to skip a jig than a wacky senko?

[@Oldbasshole]

I’m gonna say no . Skipping a wacky rig is silly easy ( especially on spinning gear )

[@troyseal9877]

I can put a jig anywhere I want but it's easier with a reel that has magnetic brakes. I started learning on a reel with centrifugal brakes and it's way harder.

[@aaronk8826]

I’m sure your using a Daiwa tatula with the t wing

[@liampeterson7743]

Nice video

[@BassFishingHQ]

Thank you!

[@dewaynewilson8937]

You make skipping look so easy

[@sidewaysrain7609]

95% of skipping or any type of casting is putting in the time. 95% of your technique cuz it's your gear that you're using. I skip with a spin rod (no backlash, ever!) have been since 1981!

[@Meanmachine-vz9bw]

I was the 420 like

[@ThatOneKidJosh]

Haha nice, I was 501. Not as prime as you 😂

[@PetakDanum]

Wow keren

[@frankieklimek6029]

0:03... voodoo BS... [changes channel angrily]

[@rickwilliams6922]

what type of line?

[@BassFishingHQ]

I like 20lb fluorocarbon. Seaguar InvizX or AbrazX are my fav

[@frankmclain8921]

You can skip a weightless fluke too

[@adubclub]

“Whippier tip”

[@BassFishingHQ]

You would

[@Spectre.Fishing]

Youre going to backlash i dont care who you are. My steez says otherwise lmao

[@CrewDogGamer]

theres so many things in this video i disagree with

[@dontnonowuno9953]

You forgot the most important part..digital chip in your reel 😆

[@topwaterblzt2473]

Think it’s 95 skill 5% setup bud

[@karellensley3638]

Informative...but...maybe try and bend your knees when putting the fish back. Show some respect man.

“Again ya know rod reel Line….. a fish just ate that” 😂😂😂😂
