I must admit you're the first fisherman I've ever seen tell or teach anyone about how to hookup their fishing line and i sincerely Thank you for sharing your video with me and all of your viewers 💯❤️👍🙏😎✌️👋😃🙌👍

[@HeySkipper]

Big thanks for showing love, my man! By the way, I've got a ton of awesome fishing gear up for grabs over at www.heyskipperfishing.com. Our gear will save you time and frustration on your coming trips! 😄

[@richardstone5241]

I used this rig in Florida but with an egg sinker years ago and caught several fish, it worked great but his idea of using an inline sinker I think is a better idea and one I look forward to using next time. I want to commend you for letting that young man fish and teaching him your method. So many young men have grown up without fathers and as a result they are lost...........thank you for your kindness.

[@user-rk8yv2pq2e]

I agree ur opinions.. I hope many young should learn how to get some fun and enjoyable things to do and discover those around them instead of screwed up bad things to do ..like smoking weeds and learning bullying pure peoples

[@PokePopPop]

That was Nice teaching that young man how to rig up properly for the trout. Glad to see it. Much Love Skipper ❤️💪✌️

Hey skipper, been watching your videos for 2 years now. I get the chance to go surf fishing for the first time in a few weeks and couldn’t be more excited thanks to the videos!

[@jessec8562]

Went fishing on the ocean a couple times, and really couldn’t do very well. Finally a local showed me exactly what to do like in this video and now we can enjoy our ocean trips. Keep the teaching going!

[@russellstewart5414]

Great job. When I lived on Charlotte Harbor in the 80’s we used this method almost exclusively and caught so many different species that it became a contest to se who could catch the most on a single trip. Our best was like 20 plus in a morning outing. Use can use live or cut bait , a jig or spoon and pop it along, or double jig and wade the back bays. Simple to use and cheap enough to keep us from going broke

[@willreese420]

Dude, you have the best fishing rigs advice vids by far. Can't wait to test out this rig. Lets go, Skipper!💪💪🎣

[@codyrunge8190]

This channel is amazing just stumbled across it after moving to the west coast from the Midwest, never fished rivers before. This slip float rig will be my go to this weekend testing it out! Thanks a ton for the content !!

[@sunchaserw1477]

you are so generous to show techniques to people and that is really superb characteristic of mankind

[@riccochet704]

Something I've learned fishing over the years. If there is a size limit you don't want your fish to be right on the line. I've seen fish shrink 1/8 to 3/16 when they get stressed. Especially if you are keeping them in a livewell.

[@Meek999]

Oh this is actually so useful, i went fishing off some rocks and snag the second its out there, thank you.

[@larryrabathaly9503]

Wowwww that is truly remarkable! Seriously! Because the bobber stopper keeps the bobber in place whereby not allowing the sinker to touch bottom and the bait will be floating freely how smart is that I must admit I’ve learned something very fish important 😀 today 👍👍👍

[@Mightiflier]

I have learned more about fishing jetties and beaches from this channel than any other; a lot more.

[@jjar7266]

I've been slip bobbing this type of setup for many years.. works great for salmon fishing! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@Nickcards82]

Skipper your videos are awesome. Wish I could fish with ya one day. Your very knowledgeable

[@disillusioned070]

Here in the Pacific NW we've been using slip floats in the rivers and on the jetties since I was a little kid and I'm in my late 50's now. I'm always surprised when I find out someone doesn't know about this style of fishing. Great video. One thing, on the jetties out here we like to use a double hook dropper under the bobber's weight. It's always fun and challenging when you get a double on the same rig.

[@AndrewEdwards-uj9my]

Hello from the UK 🇬🇧 I got snagged twice in two different days 😂 I found out from different friends of mine to use 6Ib line but just watching your video I think I will try it your way 😂😂

[@minopoggiali6237]

Hey! I've fishing the same way here in Italy for 15 years now: sliding float from a pier with rocks. Let me give you an advice: you definitely need a longer an dedicated rod for bobber fishing, at least 5 meters long. You also need a landing net the same length. The rig you use is very good, but some small adjusts would make it even better. If like to, i'll make a video in which I show my rig and my way of fishing. Keep in touch. Your YT chamnel is awesome!

This is perfect for Hawaii. We get snagged up ALL the time on the rocks here.

[@saltwaterinmyveins]

This is how everyone fished 40 years ago! With live shrimp. I still have some “ float hi glo “ floats , a trout sinker, and 141 Eagle Claw Kahle hooks. When I was a kid (mid 80’s) a man fishing by us caught a 56 lb. redfish at the end of the jetty.

[@PolarBearXx]

God bless u man i got snagged on the jetties 2 days ago first time there i slipped at the way end n broke 1 reel lol funny thing i literally was fishing next to a group of asians 4 people right next to em they used floaters n caught a big redfish a drum sheephead n a medium pompano n another asian man came he was not part of the group he gave me leader line we were talking but im used to freshwater now i know what to take n how to use a floater could never toss it far with floaters but after seeing your video now i know that bobber stopper is cool

[@garrettm5408]

Trick for getting line thru the slip bobbers - have enough slack on the enter side and use your mouth to suck the line thru from the other side. A lot easier than trying to push it thru.

I like it! We have always used those very small women’s hair rubber bands; cut it and tie onto your braid at desired depth with a double overhand knot, it slides also.

Does it go through you rod eyes ?

@@OneOut1 yes, I usually do it with a 4000 or larger size reel on jetties and bridges. The rubber bands are like 1/2” or so and very thin.

I always put 2 or even 3 rubber stoppers and it holds the floater way better, with that you can make sure your rubber stopper wont move up when making stronger casts

We use a ton of slip bobbers inland fishing in Minnesota. Especially rig for beginner casters as there is not a huge lead like a fixed bobber when you are trying to fish 6+ feet. I am newer to ocean fishing and I have always wondered why people don't use bobbers floats.

Not sure how much it matters for a non Up eye fishing hook, but you should run a snell through the front of the eye (the same side the hook comes out to make the J)

[@jckkss4715]

Really nice !! what IS your size setup reel and rod thanks 😊

[@VitoVitoski]

Thank you for your explanations. I have a couple of advices though. First don't use a snell knot on a hook with an eye not soldered (and thus closed) to the hooks body, this knot is sometimes very weak due to the line coming eventually right into the small gap between the hooks eye and the hooks body, where it starts rubbing... Use the improved clinch knot instead, or take hooks with the paddle instead of the eye, or even use soldered, closed eye hooks (rare). Second. The principle of the sliding floater works of course very good, the only thing is, if it's really deep and you need to reel in the line portion where the stopper is, you CAN NOT use the bead, because it's too big to be reeled in. And the last one, OK, this works fine vith a shrimp because it will swim above the bottom anyway, but will no way work with a bait like mussel, or urchin, which has to be lying down at the bottom. It will be suspicios for any fish if they see it floating even just an inch above the bottom. Oh yeah, one more. This big one piece sinker is only OK if it is lying on the bottom, or if you deliberately fish in the rough sea with a lot of foam, near the rock shore. Otherwise, you prefer the series od smaller sinkers. Cheers from Croatia!

[@Mightiflier]

Improved Uni knot is almost 100% line strength.

@HeySkipper what size float and sinker is that?

[@Bassassinator]

Nice! I will use this tomorrow. We are ALWAYS getting snagged on the rocks at the jetty I fish! I have used Richard Gene’s method of using fishing line as a bobber stop and it is better for casting through your guides. You just use a Surgeon’s knot with double your line weight and clip it close! It slides up and down easily and you don’t have to spend money on bobber stops!!

[@HouseHunterLA]

I love the Filipino culture

[@kingusmaximus]

I found the line breaking culprits to be lady fish. I'm using 30lb braid with 30/40 lb leader for FL inshore. I'm excited to try this setup. Ordering those weights right now! Any tips for getting past the lady fish and into trout territory?
