EliasV and Skinner Fish for Big Ocean Fluke (Summer Flounder)!

[@nightleaper]

7:42 ELIAS 1 ... SKINNER 1 Loving the drama unfold as the two are now tied ... ^_^

[@johnryan4745]

I like how your group measures fish by the size of net it will need.

[@EliasVFishing]

Thanks to everyone that took me out on a memorable trip. All the Johns are really wonderful people.

[@26halkman]

I guess my check cleared Elias :) Was awesome having you. You won’t believe this, but we had an even better trip today with John S. Looking forward to your next visit.

[@josephcain8643]

man,your last vid was great.3 and out,you got a workout

[@NoScammers215]

EliasVFishing Dude you gotta assemble the Dream Team for us. You, Skinner, Sea money, and Rich (Fishaholics). Please make this happen.

[@johnkeriazesakadoc7271]

EliasVFishing Elias...great meeting you and spending the day fishing with you! Hopefully, we can do this again the next time you make your way up to New York!

[@melissawright5508]

Great to see two very informative fishermen getting together.

[@nightleaper]

Stop reading my comments and watch to the end of the video !!! Thanks for another video John !!! I always try to emulate you and kept your advice on each trip !!!

[@nightleaper]

9:38 ELIAS 2 ... SKINNER 2 Neck n neck once again ... Elias nails another keeper

[@adamcosta4610]

John, thanks for the books and instruction. Caught 15 in the last Two days with 2 at legal size to Keep.

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

Excellent! Thanks for sharing that!

[@andrewhouse1795]

I enjoy his channel I’ll tell you John you have taught me more with ur videos and books and turned me into a decent bass guy no where near ur level I like to go fish for fish in my secret spot near ur old home one day if that ever works out just to see how many more fish u would pull compared to me I consider the best on Long Island

[@perryjohnson1701]

Saltwater fishing’s “Dream Team”

[@juanrodriguez-mu7ko]

Nice catch Johnny boy

[@nightleaper]

9:15 ELIAS 1 ... SKINNER 2 Pulling ahead ... Quoting "Let's keep this interesting!" - John

[@robertgerber2533]

All the YT fishermen are great. They all have their own niche in the fishing and entertainment world. I can tell that after just watching his CBBT drum video that he is not in his comfort zone on that boat. Great video John

[@BStavFishingAndHunting]

Great video John. Good to see all of the videos and how you edited yours. Very subtle and poignant narration. Bravo!

[@chriswardenoftheforest1458]

It is so different seeing EliasV standing. I just don't often see him from this viewpoint. Thanks as always for the effort and time you spend showcasing your passion for saltwater fishing!

[@jgfidgen9960]

Love watching both of your vids! Keep them coming!

[@thaddeus46]

This is like the World Series of Poker final table. All the stars together.

[@nightleaper]

4:37 ELIAS 1 ... SKINNER 0 This marks the making of a rivalry =P hehe jk I love your videos John !!! I watch em each time !!!

[@Msquad321]

Wow, didn't expect to see you two guys fishing together. Very refreshing.

[@bobfurlong5195]

I was interested in this match up as I love both your channels but was a little disappointed that Elias was virtually unseen in this video.

[@acjforlife]

Would be nice to see more collabs with elias, you two are deff the best fishing channels

[@gilfisher2107]

It's like Elias joined the philosophy dept at U of Wallamaloo. "Is your name not John?" No, it's Elias. "Well that's going to be a problem. Do you mind if we call you John?"

[@brettmckune2356]

Can you do a video on how to tie the rig you are using ?

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

There's a link to one in the video comments.

[@achievasc92]

Skinner, Elias, and Carl from ATHF together on one boat. Awesome!

[@mikejackson2228]

I've been looking forward to this for SO LONG!!!

[@hfdny37]

Happy 4th guys great video.

[@foxatvoutdoorstrails6818]

Look fun

[@gonepostal1995]

"Just Hook It", love that t-shirt. Great video, as usual.

[@davesipsy7587]

Apparently, in the North East, talking is a large part of the enjoyment of fishing (o:

[@NoScammers215]

Now all we need is a Skinner , Elias, Seamoney , video to make a complete North East fishing trifecta... Throw in Rich from Fishaholics and its the superfecta.

[@iride365]

HyPeR BoReAn yeah don’t forget rich!

[@fullmetaljackte]

yes!

[@robertgerber2533]

Love it when YT fishermen get together

[@josephcain8643]

that would be the beast

[@NoScammers215]

joseph cain right, it would be the salt water fishing Dream Team.

[@smokster0604]

Just love fishing with the John’s especially with Elias V....

[@jamesarnold5554]

It's so cool to see a video with two great fisherman........I'm also looking forward to buying your book about Fluking!!!!

[@NoScammers215]

James Arnold its a very informative book. I have all his books , definitely worth it.

[@madmedic366]

The book is awesome.

[@Jzupkus882]

Doc's hair is the missing link

[@mintdiggity8318]

good stuff as always John!

[@bigjuanflorida4256]

You guys forgot the Kid! Capt. Mark, Kidchochiese himself. Put these three together and you got the holy trinity of fishing.

[@mattromano4911]

open ocean bait drifting im usually using between 6-8 oz sinker to hold bottom. for jigging are you not trying to hold bottom? figure a 2 oz bucktail would scope on ocean drifts. any advice is appreciated

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

10 or 15# braided line is very thin, cuts the water easily, and allows for the lighter weights.

[@yellostallion]

Fun outing friends, quality fish, pretty boat. Good video! I see an iPilot so y'all are spotlocked and not the usual drifting for fluke.

[@26halkman]

ToddFrom RichardsonTx - no, we used the Track mode on the Rhodan to help when the drift was slow. We’ve yet to use the spot lock feature.....we will start using that during blackfish season in October.

[@yellostallion]

ok thanks. Tracking is great as well

[@billc7686]

Hi John ! Im out of the Northport area and my teenagers are loosing interest in boat fishing because we arent finding any... Please guide me toward a north shore spot where i have a good chance for my kids to catch fish for the table other than Porgy. Thank you !

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

I wish I could help. The Sound has been really off for fluke this spring. Even Port Jeff didn't seem to have much of a run. Maybe Port Jeff is still your best bet, or around Cranes Neck.

[@nightleaper]

Jigging Jerks are like comic relief in this awesome boat ^_^ Hehehe *Nice "nothing but net" catch !!!*

[@steventomasi977]

hi John. perhaps you can help me out,,,, I am a fairly good fisherman (but by no means as good as you). im having one hell of a time finding the fluke in my area. even the low hanging fruit areas around me that are normally productive are spotty at best. im drifting ledges and rips. trying to stay with the current but sometimes it just doesn't work that way. im usually in 15 to 30 feet. I try to catch the tide 2 hrs, before and after, and of course im fishing bucktails and gulp with teasers as I always have since the first time I watched you 3 to 4 years ago .

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

Are others catching fish in that area? I know spots that were awesome in the sound for the last 15 years that were terrible this spring. I'm thinking you're not the problem.

[@stephensikorski7619]

My two favorite's together awesome.

[@Rh92887]

If I only do party boats with 3oz should i get 701h or 701xh rod?

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

For 1 to 4 ounces I'd use the H with 4 inches cut from the tip.

[@SchusterFishes]

Yesssss it finally happened!

[@libertywilly2417]

Can't be stop the press..looking forward to this one..

[@ThresherFishing]

I love the johns :)

[@Emc321]

ThresherFishing My favorite fishing KZbinr commenting on my second favorite fishing channel. I love it.

[@froggleggers1805]

Thresher rocks.

[@johnsweeney1400]

Great video John. Happy Independence Day!

[@kc2jfs]

John. Two things first is What size Cobia is that boat ? Second, did you guys ever consider using a rubber net for fluke? The rubber net eliminates most tangles.

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

The smaller one is rubber.

[@26halkman]

kc2jfs and the boat is a Cobia 256.

[@kc2jfs]

That’s what I thought. I have a 256 also. Love it

[@johnkeriazesakadoc7271]

kc2jfs Yes...I was just thinking that. The smaller one is rubber, however, there is another one they sell that is bigger and constructed differently. I am going to look to see if I find one...they really work well!

[@Marceldbd]

Its like the lennon and jagger of fishing

[@deanstanley2125]

Marceldbd or the Richards / Mac Cartney of the great pull.

[@troyfairweather8553]

great video john. what rig to uses for shore and on a pier for fluke

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5XHg4KYYt9jY5Y is an example.

[@troyfairweather8553]

thank u

[@josephcain8643]

Elias's last vid was epic

[@OutsideWatch]

What’s up John? This is an awesome video, especially loved your footage! This is why we think it would make a great addition to our video of the month contest! Just upload it to campfire.outsidetv.com/home and you could have the chance to win a kayak, cooler, and be featured on Outside TV! See you on Campfire!

[@Rh92887]

Doc isn't wearing scrubs!

[@jacksonk7222]

Hey John, heard you comment on how you think the Slimwave’s tip is a bit soft. Do you think cutting the tip off of a MH casting could solve the issue?

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

That's what I've done on mine.

[@madmedic366]

John ! Caught a 10 lbs monkfish yesterday on fluke grounds

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

Cool catch! I've yet to catch one, but my friends have had a couple.

[@craigmoore7886]

Up to what ounce weight would u feel comfortable using your reel with for fluking?

[@MrOkShin]

Wow - what a collab! Enjoying this one, hope you both have a good 4th of July!

[@bunka-boydrew2874]

Dynamic Duo on the meat!

[@Billmcd1974]

Happy 4th of July.🗽🎣

[@rebelxti910]

man i expected to see elias in the yak right next to the boat

[@philbarrows424]

I liked that first swing John!!🤪 Have a Great Independence Day👍🏻🇺🇸

[@Violence0vAction]

Good Stuff

[@chriswardenoftheforest1458]

John, I'm trying everything to catch bigger strippers with plugs, buck tails, and sub surface lures yet I can't find anything over 27". I can find those dinkers and the 20"-27" but never above. Is my technique the reason?

[@francmeister420]

Location prolly

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

Are you fishing at night?

[@theotherone31415]

Big strippers don’t typically go for bucktails. I’ve had luck with mixing in a $5 with the singles though

[@chriswardenoftheforest1458]

John Skinner Fishing I tried to fish the slack time in the tides like you have talked about so often but I have not fish in the dark at all, yet. I'd like to say I was up frolicking all night but in truth I have just not done it much mostly because the aren't any other fishermen out there at dark except on the beach where I see people using macks or clams.

[@JohnSkinnerFishing]

I would start in the dark. If you don't want to fish dark, fish both ends of the day as close to dark as possible.

[@scottsluggosrule4670]

Why we all drop flounder..they have slime with a 60% reduction in coefficient of friction ..see article...interesting it is a department of defense research study. www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/715342.pdf

[@thaddeus46]

Elias V sounding more and more like Rhett Butler. So long New Yaawk accent.

[@ryansmith2852]

Have a great 4th everyone 🤙🏻🇺🇸

[@PalaciosCJ5]

Need another fishing partner John? I'm a retired cop with a lot of time on my hands.

[@fortnitewithclintgerg8320]

I live in Southold

[@traperjoe5226]

Go watch sea money's newest vid fluking from the beach it is the best example of when u drop a fish it will eat again I've ever seen! He drops one right in the wash and drops the jig back in its face as it turns to swim away and it eats again! Great footage! Def worth checking our

[@petermavus4131]

God bless America and Fluke fishermen However you guys never invite me?

[@bomiwonabi]

Elias!!! Sonnnnn!!!!!! Lmao
