Simple Pier Fishing Methods- ANYONE can catch fish!

[@OHCreekFishing]

I am a big Freshwater fisherman and follow a lot of freshwater channels, but you are by far my favorite saltwater channel, you do it in a way that I understand! You’ve Earned a Sub!!

[@danielferrari8849]

Yea he simplifies things and hes very clever 😊

[@HeySkipper]

Wow thanks so much! Really appreciate the kind words :) if there are any requests, I’d love to hear them! Do you do saltwater fishing as well?

[@OHCreekFishing]

@@HeySkipper I mean I would love to see Sea Trout video, I love fall fishing for Steelhead!

[@OHCreekFishing]

@@HeySkipper Oh I wish, I do mainly freshwater, but if you have any suggestions lemme hear them! I’ve been at a loss for video ideas!

[@rebelbaron7003]

Hi Skipper,Randy here. As someone else said,you are the very best fishing video dude online. Really enjoy and look forward to your stuff. I'm not sure if I've seen ALL your videos so bear with me on this idea. What would be of immense help to us all out here is for you to do a seminar on what you have in your tackleboxes. Right....in other words...one video could be pier fishing (I do this on the Outer Banks). What lures you have and how to make them behave underwater. Another vid could be surf fishing (I do this also on the OBX,but also the Jersey shore). What lures you have in your tackle box that have worked for you off the beach. Of course,I have my rods with bait out in the surf in OBX ,but I like to throw lures too. Here's the reason I'm suggesting this..... I can't tell you how many bait/tackle shops sell you stuff that has been working in their area (OBX,Md shore,De shore,Fla) you bring their stuff home (NJ shore) and you get bageled!!! I'd rather get advice from anglers like you who spend far more time on piers,boats,and the sand than I. Keep your vids coming boss.

[@popsmorris5887]

I like jigging because it is "active" fishing. Sometimes just waiting is not what I want to do. Thanks for posting!

[@tonianty]

Usually most of us do bait fishing here in kuwait. I learn a lot from your video. Please give more videos about jigging, and different kind of jig you use verities of fish which attracts. Your practical presentation helps a lot. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@DCnich]

Simple methods with an emphasis on learning is why I look forward to a new HS video every Thursday. There is a lot of joy to be had with uncomplicated fishing and you do a great job capturing that.

[@iancaen2977]

Use fresh bait and small hooks...eventually, you'll figure it out. Not being mean, but you DO have to learn to fish...it ain't just instinct.

[@socalangler4082]

When I lived in CA, I used to jig on the surf all the time it was my go to. I used these metal jigs that are on amazon, they're cheap but they work. Caught legal halibut, croakers, rays, and barred surf perch. It's my favorite way to fish cuz it's so active and those things cast a mile even in the wind. On the jetties and small dingies, I catch rockfish, spotted bays, barred bass, and I'm pretty sure you can catch calico on them although I've never hooked one. Jigging is the best

[@efraindelariva7573]

Can you send me the link pls

[@socalangler4082]

[@user-ct3ml6iu4n]

Where I'm from in South Africa I use what we call a paddle tail lure. It has a round tail that flaps side to side mimicking a swimming bait fish, I target Kabeljou/Mulloway with it on light tackle. They chase mullet so the lure works well and they get really big and put up a good fight. My PB is 20 kilos/45 pounds

[@Howwerelivingfishing]

I like using paddle tail lures here in Nova Scotia Canada, when fishing for species like chain pickerel.

I use jigging to do mackerel fishing in England off shore. It's fun but you need to get out the distance with your gear as the fish is further out unless you are lucky and they are in closer. I just ordered an 15ft rod to get out the distance

[@firemazer9202]

I fish the Skyway and Ft DeSoto piers mostly and I'm not familiar with that pier you were on unless it's the one in Dunedin that I'm thinking of but I don't recall the bridge being that close so probably not. Personally I like fishing with Blue Runner Sabikis which are just larger hooks with 40-60# test line. I caught some big mackerel on them as well as some smaller grouper and sea bass. I had what I think was a kingfish absolutely slam it like a freight train when I was jigging for mackerel and it snapped the 60# line like nothing! Try them out when you get a chance. They work well like the Doc Goofy jigs you were using. I usually tip the sabiki with a whole shrimp but you could use you squidy bits too.

[@jobyfankell321]

I usually jig with a jelly bass worm that i cut with scissors to my own shape. if you cut the tail end off then split the back inch in half and put a weighted hook through it..... it flutters and gets crappie like mad. i change the shape according to current and weather. i prefer crappie to bass but sometimes you do get a big mouth...i found bags of the huge fake bass worms at a thrift store and just started cutting and practicing. but like you said....some days you don't get a hit unless you have the right color even if the action on the lure is the same.
