Thank you for the obvious time and planning put into this video. I appreciate all the additional info that you offered along with the bait. Exactly what I was hoping to find for info videos. Please keep some of these lure info videos mixed into your series.
Just got back from fishing the Miramichi pink and lime green are on fire right now we caught around 300 a day ranging from 16 inches to 36inches we had a blast.
I liked the video guys, I'm new in this area of cape canal I never fish here before and your tips I think is going to help me a lot thanks for that,, but is the last days of october now, Is this place open to fish the whole year or is there a time of the year when the all the fishes have left?
Thanks for watching, from May to October is the best time to fish the canal because the stripers run up through the canal in the spring and migrate back down south until late fall. We are fast approaching the end of the migration season on cape cod currently
@@catchingzzzsoutdoors1872 thanks. I have been threatening to come up and fish this for years. I am getting laid off probably next week im might make the trek up from WV.
I like to see the pictures of the “mosters” that you guys catch with that lure. Like a length of the fish with the tape measure next to the fish and a boga grip showing the weight of the fish. Hope you guys can post videos showing that from your previous years. That will be sweet.
I love them!! My go to lure!! Throwing 7 1/2 into the surf L.I. have a few colors! Slamming them when everyone throwing diamond jig!! This lure is heavy your arm is goin to get ripped!!! Good luck!! Stay SAFE!! And if you see me??? Stay AWAY !! I don't want them to close our beaches 😷
3.5oz will definitely get the job done👍🏽 you will just want to make sure to target slack tide if you are going to use lighter tackle so that the current is as strong
There are endless options that will work with the 3.5 oz lure. My personal setup is the Penn Spinnfisher vi Long Cast Edition (6500) reel, while Mike uses the Penn Slammer lll (6500). As for the rod we use either a 10'6 or 11' medium-heavy to heavy actions rods. There are countless brands based on quality and how much money you want to invest in a rod.
They don't tell you that you'll get hung up on just about every cast trying to jig the canal. Sure worth a shot but honestly I prefer topwater and for the most part is just as effective. And you'll save yourself a bunch of money and headache.
Dude…yes, Savage Gear lures are great but they are anything but inexpensive… no matter who or where you buy them from… More than likely,.. I’m older than the both of you guys put together… Plastic baits are not new … everyone thinks it’s the newfangled bait… No, Wrong, Bad…! Freshwater bass fishermen have using plastic worms long before I was even born…! Anyway,… $10 to $20 a pop is not cheap… for a jig swim bait .. even though you get the 2+1 pack …2 tails and 1 jig head is the only way you feel you got a deal but not really… ! Back in the day … we used a white buck tail jig and an Uncle Josh’s pork rind strip … That was textbook Striper fishing and we whipped conventional beavers … not the grinders you young whipper snappers use.. thinking it’s the best thing since sliced bread…. As you know by now,.. we have multiplier reels that cast close to 400 yards .! The CapeCod Canal and Montauk is quite the place to be for Stripers but never have I seen anyone with conventional gear there.. where’s the skill in casting a spin gear and why the helm do you need a bale… really strange design of a fishing reel to say the least…! Stop telling people savage gear is inexpensive…. All lures are made are to attract you to buy them …. Truth is … it does not matter what your lure looks like or what it does… if it moves,… the fish will attack it… do the math fellas…. 👍😎🤙

Thanks for the feedback! Will do more informational vids in the future
I fish Jetties here up on the Northeast and I had good success on the drop as waves crash in the inlet. My go to lure for the past 5 years at least.
Great to hear! Good luck fishing
Just got back from fishing the Miramichi pink and lime green are on fire right now we caught around 300 a day ranging from 16 inches to 36inches we had a blast.
last spring I was catching them every second cast from the shore in miramichi, mostly schoolies but a few nice keepers
Very good info and well explained .thanks
Good luck fishing!

@@catchingzzzsoutdoors1872 thanks guys
Best of luck
What about the roks on the canal?
So 7 1/2 inches is the smallest I should use?
Whats your favorite rod and reel set up for the canal?
We both use the odm jigster rod paired with the penn slammer or the penn Spinfisher longcast

How to most guys tie these on? Straight braid? Leader and power clip? Or leader with no clip?

You think the 3.5oz will be adequate for the canal? I feel like the 5oz is a bit too heavy
My rod is rated 2-6oz but I just feel it’s a bit heavy, I have a pen carnage 2 11ft M/H 2-6oz
3.5oz will definitely get the job done👍🏽 you will just want to make sure to target slack tide if you are going to use lighter tackle so that the current is as strong
If you could only use one color, what would it be?
Thanks

Feed the Canal God.

I bet you guys snag on rocks and weeds all the time with ridiculous weights like that!
You never fished cape cod canal?
