Striped Bass Surf Fishing - YELLOW Daiwa Salt Pro Minnow - SINKING SP MINNOW S15

Striped Bass Surf Fishing - YELLOW Daiwa Salt Pro Minnow - SINKING SP MINNOW S15. Needed a few striped bass fishing lures this season and the Daiwa Salt Pro or SP Minnow was one of them. Be warned the Yellow Daiwa SP Minnow does have treble hooks. You can replace them with single hooks. It will make your release safer and easier. I been using treble hooks for decades so I don't over think it. There is a touch one needs to learn to remove some hook sets. And yes, treble hooks can be dangerous, and so can single hooks. I usually replace the hooks on my lures when they can no longer be sharpened. Also be careful when you release your stripers. Heavy currents and a rapidly rising and dropping surf can be dangerous. Yes, I do believe color alone can make or break a day.

Awesome video as always ! Agree on the drag setting I feel like people at times use very tight drags on a open beach. As long as it’s tight enough to set da hook let the rod and reel do the rest of the work !

[@FishYourWay]

You got it karl I like to create the drag as I need it sometime you do sometimes you dont but you can never undo a tight drag when its too late!

[@FPS_Wingo]

The SP minnow is my number 1 go to for stripers. Always get great results whipping one out

[@FishYourWay]

Keep up the good work!

[@johnstockert8097]

It is such a pleasure watching your videos. Tight lines

[@FishYourWay]

Thank you john I really appreciate that!

Good job on some nice fish. Enjoyed your comments on the hardware. If you leave the trebles on, may want to consider crushing barbs down. Makes for quicker, safer release and if you do get stuck, much easier to remove w/o barb. I haven't seen any increase in missed bites or lost fish either.

[@FishYourWay]

Thats a super thing to do! Will do! Thanks for sharing JJ!

[@jeffreybrandes881]

Great video, as usual, Jerry. Great to see you on the fish again. I'm resting now, after an epic day of big slot and better bass, on bucktails and pencil poppers. I hope it keeps going for a while.

[@FishYourWay]

Wow! I love to hear epic! Thanks Jeff! That's awesome to hear hope to be that way soon hope they stick around!

[@BillCadmus]

Jerry gets it done again! Great video!

[@FishYourWay]

Thank you Velo!

[@smokster0604]

[@FishYourWay]

Happy thanksgiving Chris to you and family and coffe sounds good right now! Thank you always!

[@thomasnorris1353]

Hey Jerry was really a pleasure chating with you on the beach. Wish I had thought of it at the time but I wish I had given you a few teasers that I make after watching your 360 videos. Next time. Be well

[@FishYourWay]

[@FishYourWay]

Thanks Fish Big!

[@FishGuts73]

Nice catches Go Get’em Mr Ruff

[@FishYourWay]

Hi James! Thanks always and see you soon!

[@michaelcampanelli6547]

Have removed all rear hooks on minnow style plugs. As they it usually gets stuck down the bass's throat doing lots of damage. I just replace with a flag. Plus crimp the trebles hooks.

[@FishYourWay]

Good stuff thanks for sharing, I guess you can even use that rear hook after the mid goes. I like the idea of crimping the hooks what kinda mono do you use for that? Thanks Michael

[@jy8191]

Hey Jer you found the bite again? Awesome!! Was this yesterday? You seem much further east from last video. Glad to see you are wrapping up season strong.

[@FishYourWay]

Thanks JY! Pretty recent not yesterday but there are fish around had some a few hours ago!

[@josephparisella806]

Keep them coming.

[@FishYourWay]

I try! All we can do! Thanks always Joseph!

[@keepwalking636]

Nice bite...beautiful day.....still no end of season choppers ? Have a Great Thanksgiving

[@FishYourWay]

Happy holidays! thanks paul, no choppers this year still time for them to show well see! Thanks always!

[@theodorerzepski8491]

Jerry, I don't use treble hooks anymore. Too risky to me plus they cause unnecessary injuries to the fish from the other treble hook. In the video you mentioned that adding a dropper single hook fly would probably be effective. Why not get rid of trebles and put on single hooks with a dropper?

[@FishYourWay]

For sure, I know people on blood thinners that dont take any chances for good reason always do whats best for you. I totally get it. There were a lot of smaller smaller fish on the lip of the beach with a setup like that you would probably be picking them 3 to 1 with a bucktail/teaser combo. Leave the lure about for a bigger one to get to it.

[@1539Mickey]

Hi Jerry, Many, many Stripers today. Why did you choose the Daiwa Minnow over the custom bucktail? The bucktail was working well. Glad the Stripers are sticking around. I hope you and your family have a Happy Thanksgiving. Take care and good luck, Mickey

[@FishYourWay]

Thanks Mickey and I left a bunch out! I am ok with 1 thrilled with 3, always have to love the bigums but somedays they are stacked and like to show that to. Fish been around gonna try soon! have a blessed thanksgiving Mickey and thanks always!

[@PHARRAOH]

what lure do you prefer diawa minow or lucky craft? and why?

[@FishYourWay]

Hi Alan! Happy thanksgiving to you family and all your friends! There are things I prefer and the Daiwa minnow is one of them. I feel trusted when I use one from years of use now kinda know what I can do with them and what I am gonna get when I buy a new one but haven't had to buy a new one a while now! Feel the sameway with the raps in freshwater just know the hardware and have the confidence the combo of the 2

[@PHARRAOH]

@@FishYourWay happy Thanksgiving

[@FishYourWay]

@@PHARRAOH Thank you Alan!

[@FishingHam]

If you can only have one color for both day and night which one will be your choice.

[@FishYourWay]

Hard to pick! One color in the world I would have to go with white and hope they dont want yellow that day/night!

[@edisonac638]

Hi , what rod and reel set up are you using there ? I've been wanting to try a conventional on the surf . Every time I search for them , if looking at a combo they are usually 7' rod. ?? Should I just up the rod size to 9-10 or the 8 will cast well ? Appreciate the info

[@FishYourWay]

Hi Christian, I do well with an 8 I use the lamiglass g1000 blanks the are river or salmon rods anything rated 1/2-2 or 3oz should get it done

[@vastlcedits]

Will this lure be better than live minnows?

[@FishYourWay]

Some days yea other days live minnows may be the way to go this day certainly yes

[@carlosramos2662]

What line R you using and the daiwa minnow what onz and is floating or sinking

[@FishYourWay]

This is the sinking 15s I think around 1.5oz

[@asmmwi6829]

great video, I always wondered how long the rod is you are using .

[@FishYourWay]

Thank you! The one in this video is 10ft

[@maifishing.3367]

Your video is so Good l'll accompany you ok 👍🥂🍾👉💯💯💯💯

[@FishYourWay]

Thank you very much!

[@AspiringSpaceWizard]

What kind of boots and waders u using ?

[@FishYourWay]

I like breathable but neoprene in colder water

[@joseojeda1603]

I really like your videos I'm your fan and I would like to learn to fish that style, I don't know much or know the places to fish, send me some GPS coordinates

[@FishYourWay]

Thanks for watching!

[@AlanA-gu9nz]

Hi when was this footage taken?

[@FishYourWay]

Pretty recent

[@frededer9114]

what outfit are you using ?

[@FishYourWay]

Hi Fred, that is a 10ft 1-4oz but more of a 3/4-2.5 rod a star and a abu 6501c3 been using forever I enjoy the setup

[@frededer9114]

@@FishYourWay totally love the 6500 series for casting for bass with 7.5 - 8ft rods -- def the way to go...!!!! i wanna set up a similar stick for the beach, is that Star rod a 2 piece ?

[@FishYourWay]

@@frededer9114 Thanks! yes 2 piece!

[@jinsu0504]

This was today?

[@FishYourWay]

Pretty recent

[@jinsu0504]

@@FishYourWay i had to be sure i wasn't the only one who was skunked today. sheesh. it was tough. I did feel a few bites...i feel like by the time you figure out what they are preferring...i.e) soft plastics vs diamond vs plugs...the tide is already coming in and its pushing you off the sandbars...and now no matter how hard you cast from shore it just isn't the same as casting it to the second point....sigh! this was my story today. a few tap taps on the line and had to come home. NOT A SINGLE FISH!

@@jinsu0504 Try a teaser they work great!
