I love that these are actually tips and not a meaningless title with rambling in the video. Always quality content ty

[@takinisurvivalchannel3812]

I thought i knew what I was doing, but my Dad got a guided trip, the guide used live shrimp at high tide, casted into the grass or edge of grass, very few pops, and we caught sheepshead, trout, red fish. We caught around 30 fish ! End up with at least a dozen keepers. What a difference a pro guide makes. I use his techniques still today.

[@rpalmatres5898]

More wind = more pops, less wind less pops. Probably the most popular saltwater method from Texas to Louisiana for the dirty gulf coast water.

[@BlackMamba-lt8oe]

bro i want information on this Fishing method, do u have ig

[@p3teytran]

Would this work in water that is more clear?

[@GardenerEarthGuy]

​@@p3teytran We use them around Pensacola and have clear water.

[@chuckcox8582]

Love an artificial under a cork, covers way more water and no need to re-bait…just add some scent and fill the box! Great video, excellent easy to apply tips, thanks.

[@BlackMamba-lt8oe]

what does fill the gap mean

[@MarliBlingas]

Valuable info. I was making ALL mistakes mentioned in this video.

[@jacobkolkmeier2285]

Don't feel bad. Me too all of em and funny enough I haven't caught anything

[@JohnHoard-xz5pw]

I get surprised from time to time by catching a fish with the rod in the rod holder. But you're right..... nothing beats a natural drift.

[@Saltstrong]

No doubt!

[@finsandfossils]

Thank you for this video!!! It’s really helpful to learn this, especially the drifting part. Will be using this info soon, hopefully in a video! 🤙🏼🧜‍♀️🎣

[@jasonsmouse6570]

Great advice. I was doing some things wrong. Can't wait to get back out and implement these tips!

[@eddieb35]

I have used a bobber when I was a kid but never a popping cork. Thanks for the video give it a try someday

[@danielclodfelter]

What if you use in super shallow water and even using 1/8 weight is on bottom in few seconds? Let settle for min?

[@FishingWorld23hg]

[@comfortablynumb9342]

The Core Tackle Hover Rigs would be the perfect way to rig jigs for popping corks because they cause the jig to hang horizontally. Regular jigs hang head up at an angle.

[@Saltstrong]

Thanks!

[@matswane]

Great video thanks! Will be trying it this weekend. How long do you typically have your leader line?

[@jstump1972]

Where to buy that cork?

[@kylebryer1111]

Rod tip low when popping. It creates a pendulum action on the shrimp etc. I’m sure you are used to your technique but truly it should be rod tip low to the water.

[@stevegunn9971]

Great advice, thanks!

Thks for this video I have never knew none of this to be real

[@catherineb5066]

Very cool info I know I have a bad habit of popping off my cork...all good info 👍 and refresher🏆🥇🎣 🐟 thanks

[@BlackMamba-lt8oe]

Great tips and video Richard

[@ThanksJanie]

Is there a minimum water depth you need to use a popping cork? Do you want your bait/lure to ever touch the bottom? Where exactly is the strike zone you refer to? Thanks!

[@meb212]

Strike zone is very dependent on water depth. Depending on what you're targeting will depend on your strikezone. Example, if you're targeting trout, keeping it a couple to few inches above grass should be in an ideal spot! Hope that helps

[@BlackMamba-lt8oe]

predator fish like gt, barramundi, snapper are top water predators, all that fish target with popper will attract same fish and even more species

[@jeffreybabino1411]

What's the right weight jig to use with a popping cork thanks I use a 1/8 oz

Yep I am guilty of that piping the cork too many times

[@luranzaechols8303]

What os the strike zone?

[@Saltstrong]

It is the part of the water column where the fish are feeding

[@marcusramirez8486]

It's been my experience that the proper length of the lure and cadence (pops) plays the biggest factor. Fishing from a kayak opposed to other methods like wading or fishing from the boat can be entirely different or technique specific from each. Water depth is a considerable factor and fishing in shallow water whether to be stealth fishing ( not making noise) or if fishing variable water depths, like on a drift from the boat through various water depths, adjacent to deep channels and a flat, and strong winds this might require a faster cadence. I've had superior fishing days when you change your cadence and not just staying with one application (pops). As an avid fisherman I've found that not sticking to one method has put more fish in the box. They all work at different times. Just my opinion. Thanks

[@artisticmetaldesigns3914]

Hey thanks but you did not talk about leader length, you dont think that's important?

[@larrys9385]

If you are using live shrimp, when you pop it a lot now you are jerking your shrimp too and it kills them faster.

[@Saltstrong]

The less pops the better. It won't help in keeping the shrimp alive but the action of the cork is enough to make the shrimp appear lively.

[@PolarBearXx]

I had trouble rigging this I couldn't even toss it far n idk

[@kevineggsandbacon]

Try what I call the cocktail method. Hang your hook on the bell of the cork and then cast it. If you’re using the rounded trout cork just use your hook to wallow out a lil hole by the top. Hang it in there for casting. It makes it all fly together instead of flipping stretched out. Sometime the hook can get stuck on the bobber but an occasional recast is better than no good casts.

[@marciananton9226]

I've tried bobber fishing. Everyone makes it look like a no brainer technique but I never catch anything.

[@Saltstrong]

Thanks for sharing! Make sure to ask this over on the actual blog or in the Community where the coaches spend their time and can recommend some tips. The blog can be found here: bit.ly/3vAjkKc

[@kevinrichardson-n2l]

iv caught most fish under a bobber finding the right depth for leader is key, becuz the bait or lure can get caught in the grass beds or stuck

[@Admmcmhn2001]

I've been doing it all wrong!

[@careybaetz435]

sometimes wont bite without a pop or 2

Thanks!

THE FIRST MUSTAKE US CALLING A FLOAT A BOBBER. THE IDEA IS THE BAIT DOES NOT BOB ABOUT. TRY USING FLOATS.
