IS THIS CHEATING? 6 Hook Fishing Rig + Drone Drop

We tied a special fishing rig to test out its effectiveness while beach fishing. Its a long line fishing rig with 6 long shank hooks and we plan to use our swell pro drone to drop this long line fishing rig out into the ocean to see what we catch. This seems a bit excessive but if it catches us a ton of fish, it will all be worth it. Lets see how this idea plays out!

40 years ago in Monterey CA I used 10 long shanked hooks #1 and tied red or yellow yarn on them and used to catch squid as bait for fishing that day. VERY effective since I followed the squid professional boats in my 12 foot aluminum boat & saved the big ones for bigger fish on the bottom

[@seh3145]

When you drone out at a long distance, it is harder to set the hook as the line is less responsive. Seems you were using J hooks, which needed some solid hook set. Maybe you can try circle hooks with heavy sinker, such that when fish bit and swam away, the sinker will help the circle to set it. Then you "just" need to reel in.

[@russbowman6801]

Yes. I noticed the line stretch the further it was out when in my wet suit following my line from a cast from shore. It’s an exaggeration, but it is more like a rubber band the further out the line goes.

[@melvinwagner3989]

Definitely use circle hooks when the line is so long and unresponsive. With circle hooks, the fish hook themselves, and stay hooked.

[@Professor4555]

That's how longline fishermen do, circle hooks over J.hooks any day

[@DENNISCAVE]

If the law doesn't mind, it's not cheating

[@Shellshockd85]

Lol in new mexico you can only use 2 rods haha so rigs like this stick it to the man lol

[@russbowman6801]

I did some kayak fishing from the beach in central California, Pismo beach. It was a different set of fish out there. I bought a sit on top 14 foot ocean kayak, Neckey Dolphin, used for 700 dollars. Safety first, all gear, and paid attention which way the wind is blowing. You don’t want to be blown out from shore! Your surf is more tame. The Pacific is colder and rougher where I fished. A farmer John wet suit was always worn, pfd was always on as well. But with practice and safety, it is a totally different experience, lots of fun memories.

[@jc301-OTECH]

Mt this is AWSOME DUDES....I am transfixed.. love the way you both explain everything as well... exciting stuff.. Great production.... 👍... cant wait to see what comes in on the long line... ❤

[@johnr.7897]

love watching you and your dad!!!! your dad is awesome brother

[@HeySkipper]

Thanks man!

This video is great. We find the dad we love to see again. Sincerely

[@user-no3or3dp5c]

I love those Sabiki rigs where can I get the travel rod you talk about it all the time.

[@Fidianboi]

Love your vids every time you do something new... Using circle hooks better for longline though

[@HeySkipper]

Good tip!

[@espio23ify]

Incredible, what a day at the beach

[@fishingislife34]

Like your videos and especially your knot tutorials. I request you to make a video on how to tie an FG knot. Happy Fishing. Tight lines.....

[@HeySkipper]

Sure thing! I can do that. Thanks for the e support. Have you seen our website yet, I think you will find a lot of things you will like.

[@wilfredomacaraig7927]

[@luranzaechols8303]

What knot did you tie the leader to the line on the king sized dropper

[@markhenryronquillo7331]

i really admire your fishing technique. how i wish i have rods and reels like that. hope you have "old" one to spare.

[@joshscott3271]

Doesn't look like cheating, looks like living the life to me... Winning!!!👍🔥🙏

[@mickdee6590]

Brendan, Your drone chicken rig would work great if you first FIND a school of fish (using a drone or binoculars) then drop it right on them. So definitely potential there. Good to see you consistently trying new things. I've done the same - like using a small electric battery powered reel for deep slow pitch jig fishing. At first people looked at me funny but at least I wasn't getting sharked as often. Now Johnny Jigs sells then and has videos of him doing the same thing 4 years later Lol! I always need to compliment your editor and especially their great taste in music! Keep on doing what your doing!

[@CWalthallBrand]

Thank you for your honest review! I will keep my $1500 in my pocket 😄

[@josh0072]

did you'll release the new fishing rod??

[@user-uh5dg3ne4b]

That's a great idea, if ot is illegal 🤔 then it's very cool 😎

[@thabigshow69]

It was really buetiful out there on the beach where's it at ,what area

[@tivonjones6523]

I just got my order of salty shrimpy bites and salty squid bites

[@HeySkipper]

Hey we have those too. here you can check www.heyskipperfishing.com/salty-baits/

[@jerryw8192]

Illegal where I live , max of 2 baited hooks.

[@cristianlarios2716]

What drone do you use ?

[@darrinneat2920]

I'm more of a single fish fisherman😊 but the ones I usually catch are fine specimens just a little wild😊 because if you've ever caught a small mouth in a small Creek Channel It's a Fight for Your Life😊

[@melvinwagner3989]

Try the same thing again using circle hooks vs J hooks. Your hook up and catch rate should increase a lot. A bit smaller cut of bait will help too.

[@PaulTaylor-ko8jy]

Index 3 raft had to paddle it out there drop it off at paddle back in think of a need to be a new errors RC aircraft I'm going to check it out saves me for throwing so far

[@drjekelmrhyde]

You guys near coastal waters should try powerline fishing if you don't have a drone. It's common here in Chicago for coho and chinook salmon. Just google powerline fishing and you'll see how to set one up. You can shoot out a line with up to 50 hooks around 200-300 yards.

[@HeySkipper]

Wow, I need to see that!

[@jc301-OTECH]

Yea me too sounds awsome

[@amirulrasyid7217]

Try combo with fishing bait cage please

[@sfisoduma9379]

Maybe if you used circle hooks, you would have retained a few more fish on that setup

[@tightlinesuk752]

we have these rig storage in the uk called rig winder here been out for 30 year plus

Fishing is one of my hubby

[@NoName-yi3oz]

In Philippines, fishermen used kitang for fishing. Long line with many hooks and baits.

[@HeySkipper]

That’s a good idea!

[@mrbeardmTV]

In Romania, Europe, it's illegal to have more than 2 hooks/rod. And maximum 4 rods.

[@drazzanglers9077]

great! good jod

How can someone gets this Roth from you in The Gambia and what's the cost

[@clarenceelliott9009]

YES, but I'd try it anyway!😂

[@HeySkipper]

😜

[@RastatheRat]

Where about is this I’m in central Florida

[@richardspiegel1613]

What if you used circle hooks on the long line. You would not need to set the hook, maybe you catch more. Only problem I see is that's a short shank, so some line could be cut.

[@romanmaimo1468]

I have a sima rig for deep dropping

[@cmchatton1680]

Any big fish around that area? John McHatton

[@gattosquad2241]

Nice to see boaters are just as scummy everywhere, 100% post up on a beach where I live and no matter how bad the spot 3-4 boats will turn up and throw a line in.

[@robertwade1951]

👍

[@thomassmith9932]

Skipper the problem with your rig is its to long. There is to much string ND the if you have a small nibble on the first hook you may not even be seeing the rest of the hooks get bites. What u would suggest is putting a float on each end just enough to keep it off the bottom so you can see the bites

[@gordschultz1980]

Zero cheating if the regulations say it’s ok. When the water temps are colder downsize your hooks and you’ll have more luck. You’ll be surprised even the bigger fish will eat an easy meal

[@crabjoe]

I wish you would say which State you were fishing in.... I saw you had Florida marked in the where you post your brief of the video once, but that was it. Please at least tell us which State you're fishing in. Thank you!

[@HeySkipper]

Florida!

[@crabjoe]

@@HeySkipper What's the rule on surf fishing in FL? Can you fish any beach as long as there's no swimmers or is it limited to certain areas?

[@christopherbeckerdite4273]

Just looks like a really big trout line. If it's not legal, long liners need to stop fishing also

If you are catching bait fish, ... It's all good... Other than that it's called long lining…. a commercial fishing rig… and yes, it's cheating…! In some places, .. Big fines…. I think treble hooks are cheating as well, .…it only takes 1 hook to catch a fish…. I've replaced all treble hooks with inline or assist hooks…

[@yugoyankoff-vh7in]

Remember if you’re not cheating , you’re not trying !

[@HeySkipper]

Haha love that

[@odell82716]

It may not be cheating, in most states it's illegal.

[@scottrulka6587]

I won't use this cuz i like live bait and it would cost to much 😮

[@HeySkipper]

Yeah agree, but the next best thing is salted bait. 😁 You can check on our website. www.heyskipperfishing.com/salty-baits/

[@joshtyrell25]

Cheating idk, but illegal where I’m from. 2 hooks max per pole and droning out line is illegal.

In the Philippines where i lve a beautiful island more kind of fish. This video we called crazy fishing byushet fishing catching and free the fish instead they eat 9r sale it stupid fishing
