Slow Pitch/Micro Jigging Vs Gulp! | Not Quite The Results I Expected

Fishing the south shore of Long Island for fluke (summer flounder). Nate fished with Gulp! swimming mullets and bucktails which have been steady for big fish. I had a decent streak but I thought slow pitch jigging might be worth a try in this fishery.

Ey listen Ton this guyyeeehh Elias thinks he can run his so called “elias shad” up and down through our port up in Yonkers. I think we deserve 10% as our share.

[@csabasiska7928]

Nothing is boring what you upload here, keep coming please.

[@pnwpaddler]

Would love to see more slow pitch vids…also love to have you list a similar jig that isn’t discontinued…and maybe has better hooks? 😂 Cheers and tight lines🤙🏻🍻 🎣

[@1badphisch]

These half hour vids are perfect. Keepem coming man!!! Best fishing content around

[@rmc3cayanan]

I love watching these micro jig fishing! Awesome video, thanks for sharing.

[@jakobsime4190]

I love these slow pitching videos by the way. I need to try this.

[@user-pp2nq3qj3d]

Hey Elias, appreciate you taking us fishing with you! Still waiting on another catch and cook! God Bless and be Safe on the water!🎉

[@arkyandy9612]

Been so long I didn’t recognize you. Cool to see you still out there all the time.

[@gd3design63]

Hey Elias, quick report from back home: Got my PB flounder, 24”. Also, my bud that I’ve been dragging out with me caught his 2nd fish ever on artificials, first flounder ever, and caught the shit out of ‘um, too. Banner day. Flounder being shutdown didn’t affect the smiles on our faces one bit. Cheers from Brunswick County! Enjoy your break from the heat up there (I’m jelly)

[@fishingtacklechannel]

Very nicest. I’ve caught several flounders using a slow pitch jigs.. they really work well with the right condition.

[@Jake-ky9ed]

Put effort into SP this spring and caught some greys, blues, various bottom jobbers, it was fun worked well. I’ve caught flounder in the surf on it casting and popping it in - cheers man

[@jdmmarcelo10]

nice video as always interesting seeing you using a hummingbird fish finder since I renumber watching you on the red outback back in Jamaica bay u always used the lowrance

[@ronkrauser1543]

Interesting!

[@jonmenges2256]

When the tog first came up i thought it was a trigger fish for a second and was like 😮😮😮

[@jaronburkhardt7050]

Man! Love this channel! Been subscribed for a minute! Thanks for all the great content!! I live in KY, but I’m getting bring the fam to Carolina Beach the week of the 4th! Gonna try to rent a kayak while I’m down there and finally try my hand at some saltwater kayak fishing. Anyone know the area and have suggestions on where to go and what to use to try to catch some dinner one night?

[@celsocasiban3463]

Sir Elias take care always GOD bless

[@tlspeedy35]

Try adding gulp alive 1” minnow to the assist hooks, helps out in dirty water

[@billmoss5624]

👍😎✌ TY Elias

[@stevehogan8829]

Thanks Elias, Enjoyed the Vid, Hard to beat a Fluke or Paddletail o a 1/4 oz.

[@TridentDriver]

1/4 in 30 feet of water with current?

[@markscher8691]

Calico crabs make excellent fluke bait.

[@mphprecision6922]

On the west coast they call them starry flounder.

[@Fishingandkicking]

@johnskinnerfishing and Elias colab is what we need!

[@jacobhill2081]

This is awesome. How do you think the metal lures would work with southern flounder? The hook-pull problem is just as bad or worse in my experience with them.

[@EliasVFishing]

Just as bad probably - the summer flounder fishery does trend a bit deeper so it’s easier to work metal lures imo.

[@tomfungux5597]

Nice fish! for the recording, are you using the HINDSIGHT function? or just record everything from start to end? thanks!

[@Reeltime516]

Zoom flukes would be interesting

[@celsocasiban3463]

I like your UL for jigging

[@liamwilson12345]

That’s bluefish city there

[@brianreusch3751]

How do you feel about NC closed flounder season?

[@corkycoursen-tv4wv]

Great video, cool to see the slow pitch option…. Nice variety of fish. Looked like a lot of fun. 12+ drifts no bites … ouch great patience on your part. Cheers

[@morganraimond]

Maybe put an extra split ring so there are 2 on the hook end of the jig. Less chance to get leverage on the hook.

[@EliasVFishing]

Maybe I’ll play with that idea. Like it.

[@Drew_03_86]

Hey Elias what is a comparable brand/jig to that one that’s discontinued?

[@Ed-qf6qu]

Omg. You are giving me LI ptsd.

[@Ed-qf6qu]

1st bridge terrible. Gotta go to around captree to that mess of charters

[@liamwilson12345]

Bluefish city

[@shephusted2714]

it is mostly a placebo - instead do this - do a bit of r&d and make a plastic syringe plus your own ground up liquified menhaden/pogies/herring (oily) with plenty of salt and then freeze them (with some air to allow for expansion) in a supercold chest freezer - they may not freeze totally but that is ok - mail them out in insulated small boxes with ice. you inject soft plastics with a few cc of the goop and then it leaves a scent trail instead of washing off - less of a placebo

[@EliasVFishing]

Cool idea for sure. Might be a bit out of my league with that work load but I bet it should work!

[@terrybleterry]

You carried that kayak on your car all the way from NC?

[@gd3design63]

@@terrybleterry I believe he transported them in the back of his truck. But it’s not too difficult to transport kayaks. I drove from North Carolina to Central America with a Hobie outback and two longboards in board bags strapped on top of a ‘91 pathfinder. Just gotta make sure your load is secured. Cheers!

[@Tog_Tastic]

I want to see slow pitch tog jigging become a thing

[@fishwhistler758]

I got a nice tog on a deadly dick fishing for alblies 😂

[@lee8287]

So are you on the ePDL pretty much 100% now?

[@EliasVFishing]

Pretty much

[@alexanderren1097]

I still don’t know what “slip gut” is. Can someone explain?

[@chdecoys]

It’s a “slimy weed” usually a brown color. Drapes over lures and line . Pain in the butt

[@richardwarfield7386]

Elias - I do alot of shore jigging and would love to know what hooks work best for when I target flounder

[@EliasVFishing]

Haven’t messed much with the metals but my instinct is a single inline would be best!

[@jakobsime4190]

13:06 bottom of what now?

[@jtchapman75]

Came to the comments for a link to that micro jig. Unobtainable tech. 😭

[@EliasVFishing]

Maybe I’ll start making em.
