Fish Devour These Dark Color and 8-inch Gulp Baits!

- Опубликовано: 24 июл 2021
- New dark-colored 8-inch Gulp baits came up big for me on this trip. It's best to bring along a variety of colors as fish tend to change their preference in response to environmental conditions, but this trip convinced me to always have some dark Gulp aboard. We finished the trip with a couple of surprise fish catches!

I’ve been landlocked for two years and I’m ready to get after it!
After watching lots of videos and on the advice of some friendly you-tubers, I’m going to chunk less this year and start targeting different species with metals/bucktails etc. Thanks for all the info and insights you share, it’s very much appreciated.
Hahaha. "We just caught two fish let's get the hell outta here....." I just love you guys humor!! Another great video!
After watching this for the third or fourth time, I realizes that those large 8 inch dark camo Gulp really looks like the giant Mantis Shrimp I've found in the bellies of some large Fluke over the years.
I've found lots of them in big fluke over the years too
Looks like a great day on the water!! Love the banter! LOL
I know the difference but when I was a kid I took my canoe from the scituate lighthouse to the harbor with sea worms and had a great time catching winter flounder! Took them home and made flounder florentine! Oh so good! Can be made with either!
The camp Gulp's coloration looks similar to that of a sand worm. Maybe that is what attracted the Winter Flounder.
Nice one master. The legend of fishing mr. john skinner
Enjoyed it as usual. Amazing to see a flounder caught. Like you said, when I was a kid they paved the bottom. Fishing with colored clams and blood worms.
Great video as usual!
Great vid John, that boat is a beauty, every time I see the vids when your on it, it’s an amazin machine
That boat is my dream boat. Right now I’m Kayak fishing but my last boat was basically a center console version of the Skinner $hit box from the earlier videos. Thinking I need to build up another one. The guys with the rattiest boats usually are the best fishermen 😉
Thanks for the video!
Love it when the Rick set is working.
Wow you guys catch some nice fluke! I'm here in Florida and I'm jealous. I want to get on that boat!!!!
Great video Skinner. Love that metal shark boat! Oh, by the way, zero camo grubs on Amazon now! Hahahaha
That was fantastic...
Lets Move ! lol Nice call skinner :)
Of all the boats on your channel and the Jigging Jerks channel, this all aluminum boat is my absolute favorite (yours is a close second, John). Thanks for another great video
Thanks for the video
Skinner being so modest,I don't know I might of foul hooked em' like I normally do 🤔🤔. It's ok John they already know that you are the man out there.🤙🤙🤙 Tight Lines!🎣🎣🎣
I don't show them on video, but for some reason I'm the king on that boat of foul-hooking fluke. They're usually shorts.
I’m the king of foul hooking fish as well. Tight lines John!!!
Good video nice weather
For fishing 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
We have winter flounder also in south jersey but the debate is NJ fish& wildlife label both as winter and summer which there is an obvious difference between the two and in this argument the reason why they're called "summer" flounder is because I the northeast the fish show up once the water temperature comes up unless you live in the southeast then they're considered resident fish because of the water temp, it is what it is but there is no denying the facts. Besides that Mr Skinner you are a legend in the making, great content as always....
Got a chance to use your rod with 6 oz because of the full moon current and it performs incredibly. I have just say wow John, that rod is so dialed in. I love it. We double limited and released two fish, one being 11 pounds! Truly appreciate all your efforts to improve fishing for all.
Thanks! It was worth the wait to run through a bunch of prototypes and get it right. Congrats on the great trip!
@@JohnSkinnerFishing definitely
Good job friend 👌👌
Nice work…you’re right, those Camo Gulps are going to explode off of the shelves lol but will they work for us like they work for the fluke master baiter lol…set the hook and keep your lines tight
Boat videos are cool, surfcasting videos are awesome!
Nice work by captain Rick and crew. Will have to get some C A M O
After watching your video about the darkness on the bottom, I tried a black spro teaser. I've been catching a lot with white and sand eel spro, but the black worked as well on the first drop!
Cool info!
This weekend was absolutely incredible for fishing. Never had more perfect fishing conditions like we did yesterday. My good buddy decided to come last minute and picked up his first doormat 29 inches just under 10 pounds. And i got a 21” on a teaser and a 23 on the bucktail! I havnt caught double header keepers in over 10 years! All keepers yesterday were caught on pink shine and blue fuze grubs
Ocean or sound??
@@johnappleseed936 we’re from NJ, we fished the ocean. Our raritan bay has been awful fishing so we’ve been doing ocean trips
@@jamesps7515 I’ll be dts this weekend. I can’t wait!
@@thedukeofagita3730 hell yea man! We were fishing just in front of Monmouth beach near the shrewsbury rocks good luck
@@jamesps7515 I’ll be in the Ortley surf by Thursday afternoon. Then early/sunrise and late afternoons thereafter. I can’t wait. I’ve only chunked and caught kingfish/skates/dogfish in the surf, so I’m really looking forward to upping my game this year.
Great trip. Camo is the new pink?
Love how you bust Rick’s chops
I have to admit, I miss your surf vids catching big bass and blues. Hopefully you will have some good content in the Fall.
Not much daylight striper fishing from the beach by me in mid-summer.
Lol...believe me, I realize that. That's why I said the Fall. However, I recall in year's past, big bass and bluefish vids in Spring and Fall. I am not saying it is your fault. Times are much different. Fishing has been pretty poor for me with the exception of a few weeks here and here, early and later in the season.
Never explain to idiots. Nice fishing. Big fan. In Florida we use mud minnows and little finger( size) mullet.
i had just wondered as i was watching this if I had ever see you catch a winter flounder on any of your vids...
Nope. I haven't seen any in a few years.
Hey John. I have been having a lot more success lately jigging for fluke. However when I have to use 5oz and up bucktails tipped with 6” grubs I never hook up. They go for the 5” or 4” grub teasers. I also regularly redial my rig in gulp juice. Any suggestions or modification on tactics would be helpful. Thank you.
Use thinner braid. You won't break 20lb and use far less weight
GULP never fails me.
On paper, Cajun chicken looks like a great color, haven't fished it yet.
Any chance that was a yellowtail flounder? I saw the mouth and it looked alittle different.
Hey John, great vid as always! What is the rod your using?
The new skinner fluke rod bit.ly/2QeiT6G and a quantum accurist.
Cape cod canal is where we fished for fluke
That’s a beautiful boat but would really benefit if the deck was covered with Seadek to stop all the metallic slapping sounds when those fluke flop on deck!
As far as the White Marlin catch - they used a bunker snagger to hook a dead and floating White Marlin.
How is that rig tied with a teaser
I tried using a darker colored gulp on the beach and it out-fished the lighter colored gulps I usually use. I don’t know if I have put enough time into testing the colors for it to be accurate, but I will continue to test throughout the summer.
Great info!
Update- white absolutely outfished everything today and I got my limit from the beach. I guess it’s random every day 🤷♂️
Do you find using the "J" hook that you gut hook fluke more often than if you had a circle hook on using just the gulp bait? If you have done a comparison.
We don't use circles for fluke because we set the hook immediately and rarely deep hook anything. It's likely a circle would foul hook less fish.
Am impressed skinner Good video but like I told you it works up north dont come south and try that because bucktails doesn’t work now gulp works well only gulp
I've had some good fishing in Florida on bucktails and Gulp: ruclips.net/video/zDXkpALuxcg/видео.html ruclips.net/video/DhV48tBOez4/видео.html I've had good reports from the Atlantic side on flounder, Texas too. I've not targeted flounder in Florida because there are so many other great species. I've caught a few Gulf Flounder as by-catch.
Skinner, you didn't have the net extended 🤷♂️ what were you thinking?
Wish I could do this off the jetties in AC...
Damn Skinner, it's hard to believe that a guy caught a marlin with a gulp and a bucktail. Its Montauk though, anything can happen. My grandfather caught a marlin right off the point in the 1970's chunking for blue fish on the "King Wayne"
Right. You never know out there.
John ..what’s your range in bucktail weight from lightest to heaviest when fishing montauk ? Thanks..
2-6 ounce
How long do you fish a Gulp bait before switching to a "fresh" one? Assuming it's still intact etc. Do they lose effectiveness after some period in the water?
I've gotten in the habit of swapping baits out everytime it's convenient. My impression is that they definitely get washed out to some extent if in the water for 10 minutes.
I believe in big baits always big fish, small baits big fish once in a while.
Let’s see how many people refer back to elephants and peanuts 🤦♂️
depends on voracity each specie. The flounder (or flat junkie or hirame or fluke) can attack fishes bigger than them.
@@BaldyFade 🤣
Thanks for all of the knowledge! Quick question: Do you like the berkley braid x9 better than the power pro v2 super slick?
John and his friends all like the Berkeley. I’ve tried it and hated it. I’ve had too many break offs and frayed line. My superslickV2 never gives me a problem.
Yes, and I've used both. If you snag bottom with X9 15# you'll have a heck of a time breaking it. Super Slick is good too. I think X9 is thinner diameter.
@@JohnSkinnerFishing First off You're a G. 2nd, i am now thanking my lucky stars that i bought a crap ton of camo gulp 2 weeks ago on a whim prior to this video dropping. If i could add my $0.02 on braid.. Been fishing braid since the flourescent yellow spider wire came out in the mid 90s. For Freshwater suffix 832 reigns supreme for me, in the camo color of course 🤣 but it fades and gets raspy quickly in saltwater. A few years ago powerpro released their maxcuatro line of braid which is 25% thinner than other braids. Its pricey but in my opinion it is top tier stuff.
@@JoeyMo973 When I last checked the specs, Berkley X9 was even thinner than maxcuatro. Also, I believe maxcuatro is a 4-strand braid, so it's unlikely to be as smooth as an 8-strand. If I couldn't fish X9, Power Pro Super Slick might be my next choice. Smoothness is as important as thin diameter in reducing drag. If you like Power Pro, you might want to check out their Super Slick.
@@JohnSkinnerFishing Thats why youre a legend. Much appreciated.
I fish the Massachusetts North Shore where Winter Flounder are still common, but everywhere else they've been fished out. Really sad what happened to that species. I get the economic pressures that commercial draggers are under, but damn, there has to be a better way.
I have been going on party boats that fish off sandy hook for 2 decades and it seems like the fish have gotten smaller and less abundant
@John Skinner Fishing was wondering your thoughts on if the Camo colored baits you were using in this video being how dark they were may have had any comparison to the Dimond jig video you did the other day where you had painted the jigs black. I believe you had gotten more hits on the black jig due to water depth, not sure what depth the water was you were fishing on this day.
This water was deeper, but much clearer. I've recorded beautiful underwater video here at this depth (85'). Time and testing will tell how well the camo works out in the long run.
@@JohnSkinnerFishing hmmmm interesting looking forward to watching the research
Nice video, what type of bottom were you fishing in? Sand, rock structures, big hump?
Mixed sand and rock along a slope.
@@JohnSkinnerFishing Thanks for info!
Boy that's a great boat your buddy has...mind sharing what it is exactly?

What's the reviews on the dark matter rod? Anyone got one that can let me know. Great Video John!
Someone commented on this video with some feedback. It was "Long Island Lethals".
Friggin fish inhaled that camo grub.
Ooof
It’s all gone from the shelves by now...
PS
“John’s gotta big one”
He certainly does👍🏻👍🏻🏁🏁
You guys were having a great day. I don’t know what they’re made of, but is there any concern about the fish that chew off the tails of the gulp… In terms of poisoning the fish ??? I’m always hesitant to use Gulp for that reason.
Gulp is biodegradable and the fish crap it out. It would be pretty poor business for a fishing bait company to poison the fish that drive their business.
Where are you located fishing.....I just went out in Belmar New Jersey for sea bass and fluke but no fluke
Montauk
Lmao 🤣🤣🤣 give a good whack for me John!
Heard you were the only one with a good catch out there yesterday!
@@JohnSkinnerFishing yeah, we did very well. Just uploaded the video.
how deep is the water? I fish the AB reef on the south shore and that's 60 feet of water. I can't get a 6 or 8 ounce bucktail to stay down most times. in those cases do you just change to a hi-low rig? that what I do. I don't see the action you guys do .
The key is you must not use anything thicker than an 8-strand 15-pound braided line.
Skinner The Legend slaying the game, per usual!
Looks like Rick has improved on his "Rick set".
He's gotten better with the net too!
slow motion can fish though!
Why is it illegal to use 2 camo gulps? ?
Does anyone else find that normally the smaller baits catch bigger fish for example the smaller teaser.
what kind of hook did you put the 8inch grub on and what brand?
There's a link to the exact hook in the video description.
@@JohnSkinnerFishing Ok thanks, next time i will checker there
Have you ever used the red white and blue Gulp? What are your thoughts?
I don't think fluke will care too much. It's the scent that gets them for the most part.
Do you know why they don't make jigs with circle hooks?
I think because it makes no sense. The purpose of a circle hook is to avoid gut hooking. That rarely occurs with a jig. Also, most anglers set the hook immediately with a jig. You would miss a lot with a circle hook. Circle hooks are awesome when fishing bait though.
Fish are like our children one day Taco Bell next day Burger King then Pizza…..Fish on
Agreed!
What kind of boat is that aluminum center console
32' metal shark.
That's a bad ass boat John
Hey John, is that a John Skinner Dark Matter rod that Rick is using at 4:47 of the video?
We're all using it.
@@JohnSkinnerFishing John, if you have the time, can you do some measuring for me? What is the length of the rear and fore grip and how long is the rod itself from the front of the fore grip to the tip? If you don't mind.
What kind of boat is that? All aluminum - looks like a beast.
32' Metal Shark Fearless
What’s the chances that winter flounder won’t make it after being foul hooked?
I foul hook a lot of fish and jw if they heal or not 🤷♂️
Rick's was probably fine. Not so sure on mine.
Slo-Mo on the Fluke that shook the hook, is kinda like a "Fisherman's Proof" that it wasn't the Netters' fault. You've now set the new standard for the "Trying & Convicting" of fishing partners. Video evidence when used in defence is a great thing! haha
Looks like a great welded aluminum boat! Make/model?
Metal Shark 32' Fearless
Awesome boat!
@@seantoothill6786 I wonder how they hold up in saltwater. I think they are cheaper than comparable glass boats, that’s the draw.
another great video, I had my first chance to use the Dark Matter Skinner fluke rod this weekend on a Nantucket fluke trip and had a blast using the rod. I ended up having to use 6oz bucktails to stay on the bottom but honestly on a few drifts I could have used even more weight, the currents in the Nantucket shoals are pretty strong. I intend to enjoy this rod for a long time but I am curious about your thoughts and recommendations on rods and low profile bait casters that can handle up to 16oz of weight. I know its not your forte but I'm sure you have had to go heavy now and then.
With 15# braid I have not needed to go heavier than 6 ounces ever at Montauk or Block. That rod will handle slow jigging 8+-ounce weights. I think the Accurists would survive, but something like a Maxel Hybrid 20 would be better.
I'm glad you liked the rod! How was the catching up there?
@@JohnSkinnerFishing not bad, plenty of nice seabass, a good assortment of fluke but no giants. Going to do a true Nantucket Shoals fluke hunt in August. Tight line's
I wish you'd bring a knot of fluke back down with you to Florida, in the past 8-10 years they've disappeared.
Where do you fish in Florida?
@@JohnSkinnerFishing I fish out of Port Canaveral, we used to have a pretty good flounder-aka fluke fishery but in the last 10-15 years has slowly declined.
John the link is wrong for the 8” gulp. The link is for the power bait grub not the gulp alive saltwater grub.
Thanks! Link removed. I bet they'd work though.
Nice!! Who makes that boat?
Metal shark 32 fearless
@@JohnSkinnerFishing THANK YOU!!!!
Do you bleed all your kept fish?
Yes.
How big of a buck tail was you using ?
3-ounce
@@JohnSkinnerFishing Can't understand how your able to hold bottom with only 3-onces without scoping-out.
@@jamesbernardo8874 We use 10 or 15# 8-strand braided lines that reduce drag in the water and allow for lighter weights.

Wonder what the depth was on that run.
70-100'
@@JohnSkinnerFishing I usually fish the harbor where water is (deepest) 70ft near high tide;
Camo gulp is worth a try in that case.
Dark colors did me no good in the flats/Ambrose Channel---way too shallow.
How deep is the spot you are fishing?
70-90'
@@JohnSkinnerFishing rewatched the video and heard you say it this time. Appreciate the reply tho. Thank you
Always keep head in the water.

We need to get Berkeley on the "John Skinner" gulp edition. Mixed with the colors he would use.
John what’s up with some surf casting videos
Not much daylight surfcasting for stripers this time of year by me.
Where can I buy the 8 inch size?
I'm not sure now. I thought I had a link, but it turned out to be power bait.

New Penny or Pink for NJ
Funny. You named maybe my two least favorite colors in the ocean. How's your water visibility there and what depth? If you're in the bay, then I get it, because I like New Penny in the bay.
@@JohnSkinnerFishing Clarity varies drastically, id say clean water is rare. Usually 3-6' visibility. Often 60ft-70ft for prime summer//North Jersey is ridden with dump type "reefs" and the Hudsons Shrewsbury Rocks.
We are below the hook, so if you look at the Hudson runout, I wonder if thats the difference? River runoff?
To expand on color:
Nuke chicken/New penny and Pink/White
Salmon and camo have been growing on us too.
