Great videos as always! I hope I don't get you in trouble but you need to marry that girl. Any girl that will fish with you from 5am to midnight is a keeper.
Keeper in my book
Very nice
and it happened
hey you see that pill box (the big concrete box ) , that use to be in the cliff, as a kid i use to play in it . that was an old ww2 gunners box
I enjoy all the types of fishing you’ve been showing the viewers. I also was an avid fisherman on land and my boat and stopped almost 16 years. Started shore fishing and from my new 16 foot boat I purchased in 2021. So my son and wife are loving every moment we go on weekends and catch 12 to 20 fish. So glad you inspired me to fish again. Keep up your great knowledge you share with us all 👍
Grew up in Long Island and seeing your video brings back fond memories. The surf fishing along the south shore of Long Island from Jones Beach all the way out to Montauk point can be fantastic. As a 10 year old kid I caught a 20 pound Stripped Bass from the beach. Probably one of my best memories ever.
that sounds incredible. there's no way i would be able to resist the fishing itch after that! -Erin
Such a nice little documentary. The suspense kept me hooked excited throughout the whole video. Very nice video
Same as you said in the last part of video. Use to go surf fishing all the time with my dad when I was a kid. 17 yrs later in getting back into it. Been going 3 to 4 times a week for the last month. Been loving it. Watching your videos definitely helped me learn different styles and methods of fishing which are working great for me. Thanks guys for bringing fishing back into my life, loving. Keep the videos coming!
The commentary, cool fact segments and variety of fishing is what sets this channel apart for me. If you're ever in Oregon, try out the surf for white Perch or maybe get lucky by hooking a incoming/outgoing Salmon!
RawRawDimension thank you for the feedback! We are glad the commentary is interesting.
Great job! I’m a service member serving overseas and miss home a lot. Watched a ton of your videos paying special detail to your rigs and suggestions. Thank you for allowing me to get out and enjoy the outdoors again and often forget the daily stress I encounter with work.
Hope you're home, by now. Keep up the good work, bud. Water will be here waiting on ya. 🍻
All I can say to you SKIPPER you are 1 of the most lucky man on earth, tyvm for a great video.
Great videos yall. I'm sooo in love with Montauk. A word of advice/caution about surf gear- go to a scuba shop and buy a diving weight belt to wear around your waders. If the top half fills with water the weight will break most any other belt. Safer to wear a wetsuit- neoprene is buoyant. When you wear Korkers be sure to tape them on with duct tape or electricians tape... it also helps if the buckle is on the side of your ankle instead of the front or back. Also at night wear a headlamp around your neck... if you get smashed by a wave it will rip the lamp off your head... you may need it to signal to rescuers. Happy fishing!
+Steve C. Wow, I wish I would have had this advice before I went. But this is great, thanks for sharing. Montauk is a magical place
I LIKE HOW YALL TELL A STORY . REALLY GOOD VIDEO MAN.
Preciate it fam🤝
Ive learned allot from your videos .
Before I started watching you I would tie regular shoelace knots ,I didn't even know about lures until I started watching you thanks senko for putting videos out like this . For my bday I got allot of new gear like spinners, flies, lures , topwater lures, different kinds of braid etc so I could be like you 😎😎
jay_money whats up man! I will also recommend john skiner’s videos! He’s the guy of true knowledge
I've been watching the show nonstop not because your the best but your a amazing person and your fiance and you got into wanting to eat fish lol
Best fishing Chanel ever!!! You guys need to be on TV!!
Sept Jones I wish! But thank you very much. We are glad you commented
You guys are entertaining and informative. Awesome videos.
You really brought me back to the first time I fished Montauk and I live on Long Island. Thanks for a great video.
P.S.- The fish heads are either filleted keepers or fish that were released but didn't quite make it. But nothing goes to waste. The crabs and birds are fed well.
Great spot. I love fishing there. Fun video. I love those rocks you guys made them sound like a scary story lol. The area has changed since.
My son and I watch your videos regularly. We live in Ecuador South America, and we Fish often either on the high land rivers or the coast. You guys should take a trip here and fish with us
Many year ago I practically live on the Montalk Beaches Catching monsters.... Your video made me re menus about my past experiences. Your video has motivated me to plan a trip back to Montalk and re experience my teenage years and unbelievable fishing again.. Great video like always. Sy
You brought me back in the old days when I used to fish myself for Bluefish and big stripers yep Montauk Point is the place yes you brought back memory yes you do makes me want to leave Florida and go back over there and Fish lol
You two fisher folks are so cool and fun to watch! Old Salt of the Sea myself really enjoyed your take surf fishing she is a keeper too!!!!!
I'm from Long Island....hurt my feelings when you called it New England....not once but twice lmao...great video!...Even greater spot to fish!!!
Love your enthusiasm for surf fishing
If you're traveling that much bring bait, frozen squid bluefish hook on steel leader. Smelts i like also. Find floating it gets blues & some strippers. Put a weight & flounder get it. Good luck great fishing. That bluefish was a nice meal you let loose.
This certainly was a huge adventure for you and congrats on your huge blue tight lines to both.
Juan S yes it was! Stepping out our comfort zone and really just soaking in new things. We hope to inspire you guys to get out. thank you:)
Why aren't you keeping any of the blues? They are my favorite for eating! 😲 That and Mackerel.
Same
Are you insane?
Blue is your favorite to eat??? lol Have you ever had stripers??
I enjoy watching all of your videos i learned so much things from them
“Night fishing is hard” gotta love it
I love you both 😍😘 take care always! 😊
I am your no.1 Fan 😊 I love fishing too.
from:Philippines 😘😘
You need Korkers to hope to avoid falling. Many on the Canal who don't where studded boots now have knee replacements or pins in their legs from falls. Never go on slippery rocks without Korker type studs and walk carefully and slowly.
Haha 8:48 ‘hold it up babe! Can I hold your rod?’ Diggity
Thank you guys so much for the videos. I recently moved to NY from VA and want to give surf fishing a try. I especially like that your girlfriend is so involved too. As a woman, its very refreshing to see another woman into fishing. Keep it up guys!
You guys produce some great videos. Montauk is a magical place for surf fishing. It takes time however to catch a trophy striper. Fishingnj82 has given you some great advice on what to use when looking for large bass. Here are a few lures that are popular for big bass; 1-yellow Super Strike Darter, 2-of course a white or chartreuse green buck tail with a white or red trailer, 3-Bomber Long A in black, black and purple or chicken scratch colors,
4-Gibbs or other wooden metal lipped swimmer, and a large needle fish 2-3 oz.
If you have a 4X4 or not, try to get to Stepping Stones on the beginning of the outgoing tide. Good Luck and don't forget to post some more great vids.
+Phil G wow thank you Phil. I'm getting such great advice from everyone! I appreciate your input. I'm going to have to give Montauk another try, and if not montauk, NJ.
Your welcome, I've fished the Montauk surf for over 20 years. As a rookie or "googan"(what a seasoned surf fisherman would call you)
I fished many a night perched on a rock under "The Light". It is not a place to fish if you are new to the sport especially at night. You WILL learn very quickly what to do and what NOT to do. If you're lucky you'll get some advice from someone willing to part with some knowledge.
Watch RUclips vids from John Skinner a very good surf fisherman who concentrates on fishing the Long Island Beaches.
Montauk can be a very haunting place for a fisherman bitten by the lure of catching a 50 pounder. Try to go during the end of September or October you won't regret it. Again, Good Luck.
Phil.
Great video first off. I wanna say thanks ive been away from fishing for a while, actually way too long. Totally green at surf fishing. But the vids are helpful now i catch myself with a rod in the car at all times.
Wow! Another great surf fishing video!
KING SLAY thanks again! Keep slayin!
Haven't fished Montauk since 1984-5, surf wise I always lost lures on the kelp beds. Boating off the point was always the best way. Those who fished back then, were assured of a mix of bass, Blues and huge weakfish (sea trout) (Aug-Sept)
been to Montauk the past 4 fall seasons.. epic place!
That is pretty cool, one of your better videos
Love seeing my old haunts. I would never consider L.I. as new England though lol.
I live in Staten Island, NY and I haven’t gone there yet. It’s about a 3 hour drive but maybe this year I’ll check it out.
Man, you guys have great vids! Subbed.
I'm 20 mins from Pulaski, I just caught 2 salmon today but it's shoulder to shoulder fishing. use cleos, spinners, and egg sacs when u go.. good luck and tight lines
Lawrence English Awesome! Thanks for the advice. Man those salmon are tricky. Tricky to hook, and even trickier to land.
I horse them in with 30lb braid and a 12 foot pole, I play no games
Lawrence English man, I was using 12 pound leader on 15 pound main line and it was a PAIN. Snapping lines left and right... Switched to 15 pound leader and was able to horse a small one in, but the bites went down significantly.
You came to soon, try again in 2 weeks or so if your up to it, let me know and I'll scout out some places that should be holding fish.
Lawrence English comming back in 2 weeks man😆😆 where the steel heads???
This weekend me and my son will try Santa Cruz pier , California last time I took my son there he was 13 years old know his 26 and wants to fish with his dad thanks for showing my the ropes
Hey skipper I want you often you should try blue fishing at night off the boats that's where you catch the biggest Blues I used to go all the time in New Jersey
Great video and catches! Enjoying following your fish-scapades! Have a question...are you buying new tackle at the locations you are visiting or renting at the local tackle shops? I am wondering about the cost of traveling and either paying the extra luggage fee to bring my own equipment or just renting it at from the local shops (if they rent). Keep up the great work and tight lines!
Christopher Antonio we have been driving to our locations, so we are able to bring all of our gear. When we fly, I have a 3 piece collapsible travel rod that I can carry on me. I'm glad you are interested in going on adventures. That's what Senko skippers mission is, to inspire adventure, any and all feedback is greatly appreciated
I Live in New Hampshire 3 miles from the coast . Never tried it. Because of you guys, I will. Also because of your videos, Ill stay off the Jetty. That video was scary.
Nice bluefish! Can't wait for you two to get on some salmon.
ChanManChomp Videos hopefully we will get on some. I'm here now.. Yesterday was full of research looking for fish and the best spots, and the gear required. Today we are meeting up with an expert, at Oswego.
I just like to go with fish like colors on my top water lures, seem's like natural fish colors always work good on top water plugs, or stick bait's!Your color , blue silver ,blue pink, pink and white, purple sliver, black silver, or combo's with any one of these colors on top waters will hook up big striper occasional green cambo too!! With these colors!! I was using Hawaiian style top waters and killed the big stripers, from Bultimore all the way up to New York!!
Great videos as always! I
Live eels at night. Can't miss!!!
Good job guys !
Hi, I just have to say love your videos, I'm not going to lie but I wish I could go and venture out to experience all the different types of fishing, throughout the state.like you do, I'm from California, to see you on your adventures, It takes all of us out with you on these journeys,well it takes me that's for sure, I truly love fishing been trying to build up all my gear for all types of fishing, surf fishing is one of the biggest things on my lest I have been going through a lot of surgeries but when I'm done and back on my feet, fishing is going to be the one thing I will be looking to do as much as possible, would love to know all the best places to try here in Cali. if you have any great spots will you let me know, keep up the great videos. ... Fish ON.
I live on Long Island & have always seen people surf casting for sharks & stuff. I'm gonna go get the rig U suggested & get out there!!! 😲
You guys make a great couple!
Montauk has been "off" for a few years. But south side is usually the place. I was blessed to fish there a lot one year when fish never left north side but usually south side is it.
hey man new sub. i could not tell if you guys had korkers on in this video. but i would highly recommend them. they will be a night and day difference when standing on rocks. you could also use them in rivers. good luck cant wait to see some huge salmon !!!!!
Gregory Hulsman we had cleats on top of our boots. I'm not sure if that's the same as corkers? But Ya they are very helpful. Thank you for commenting Greg! We are currently in pulaski, driving to Oswego to try for some salmon. Yesterday we did a lot of research and figuring things out. It's pretty overwhelming here if you don't know what you are doing
That place looks awesome. My fiancée and I go fishing together every weekend here in GA!
Y’all look like you listen to tigers jaw, or balance and composure, or dr dog. Lol
VERY awesome!
gotta love those choppers. I wish we would see them more often in Maryland and further south.
I really enjoy your presentation. I am heading down from DC to the OBX to try and catch red drum before Hurricane Matthew makes it's move.
FrenchWBB man that should be a great trip. Have a great time. Lemme know how you do. I've never caught a drum before
Wind was flat calm. I managed one spanish mackerel, around a half dozen bluefish, and 14 speckled trout with two keepers. There wasn't a single big drum all day Sunday. I headed back due to a work issue (I was supposed to be off through Wednesday.) Today there is a nice spanish mackerel bite going on. Most of the drum are being caught at the surf near the inlets or up at Carova (north of Corolla beach.) Hopefully this storm won't destroy the piers and leave some structure so bait and fish will be around when I get back down for the week of the 16th.
Great videos guys. As I went to subscribe, I was shocked to see you only had 2000 other subscribers. Keep up the good work!
Mitch Sutherland thanks Mitch! We're a pretty new channel- only been making videos since March!
Senko Skipper I can't wait until you guys have 100k+ and then I can arrogantly go on about how I was one of the og subs ;)
Mitch Sutherland lol! We can't wait until we have 100k+ sub either! 😂
I used to play with myself in the pill box it was nice
I love you guys!
Fantastic!
Take care guys. Please be safe! 😃
Go again there
Haggai really love your videos and I've learned a lot got a question for you I want to start fishing in Ormond Beach Florida should I use a 10 foot or 12 foot pole and should it be real stiff or a medium stiff please give me your answer thanks
I would recommend a medium rod; it's better for casting from the surf... a stiff rod is better for boat fishing. 10 or 12 feet is fine, from shore. 8 feet or longer, really. 7 feet or less, from a boat. There are plenty of locals to help you out. Don't be shy on the docks or at the bait shop. Good luck, tight lines.
nice.... great fishing, what kind rod and reel you are using?
jess vill using a st croix triumph and a shimano stradic
ok i know ive been commenting on your stuff but if your ever back in and in montauk try kastmaster and hopkins during the fall like someone else suggested wadder belt so your not swaping your waders if you do comeback and fish mtk and dont mind meeting ul with your subscribers and fish let me know one last thing tip your bucktail with pork rind if you can find em, also otter tails are the replacement for porkrinds but they are rubber so any toothy fish rip em up tight lines glade i found a new channel to watch
+tygoom thanks for the words of encouragement and tips man. Montauk is tough for a beginner! I'm ready to try again.
Senko Skipper another thing for safty change the trailer hook to a single hook when on the rocks and getting slames by waves u dont wanna get a trebble in the hand with a fish still attached to it
I've gone fishing there its a really nice place to fishing 🎣
Thank you for the videos
Can I fishing in winter. I am in NZ Auckland. I don't know much about fishing. I thought fishing is only I can do in summer. I have asked you couple of questions before as well. I go for fishing near tamaki drive or cylo park.
Great video
nice gator! great vid, well edited.
Josué Mendez thank you haha. Never heard them called a gator before
Senko Skipper yea lol some people call big blues gators
Josué Mendez makes sense
Well put together vid. subscribed
+Kilkees Own awesome:) thanks for the support
I love your videos, and learn a bit. One thing though: Montauk is not New England. It does look nice.
Aye I'm in this video lol
Javier Villarruel where???? Time?
Senko Skipper 5:20 lol. I had a bucket cause I forgot where my. Surf bag is 😂
Javier Villarruel no way! 😂
I'm serious lmao 😂😢
Great Vid!
+1geemae thank you:)
Hey its me again those fish are huge i went on the trip i said i was going on and caught 2 Australian salmon and 2 blue crabs some how with lures but great video i enjoyed this a lot great work
+The Vicious_Dawg that is so cool. I never heard of Australian salmon.. I just caught my first king salmon yesterday!
Congrats, Australian salmon is all over the place haha!
Thanks for doing this. Maybe its the fullmone, some of the old fishermen say that you dont fish there, but at new mone
I know this video is old but Montauk isn’t part of New England. It’s New York. Idk why she kept saying that. Either way, great video!!
Those headlamps will spook the fish. Use a red light and only for rigging up.
+MARTYMAR FISHHUNT 👍 true.
See Capt Scott Schafer on the “Sea Spray” at Montauk. He will hook you up on the stripers!!
When are you guys coming to SEA WOLF PARK in for those Flounder
+25lipsey 1. Where is sea wolf park? 2. As soon as a possible. When is the best time to go? 3. Are you from there? If we went could you show us around?
you actually fished with a buddy of mine yesterday saw a pic of you holding up a coho I think... nice fish
Lawrence English that's so funny...are you talking about Christian Ryan and Justin?
Lawrence English that's so funny...are you talking about Christian Ryan and Justin?
yes I am lol, good guys
As a person who fishes for striper every chance I get it hurt me that you guys weren't chunking with big chunks of baitfish. Seriously it is ridiculously hard to catch a striper over 27 in with a lure.
+La De da it was our first time ever trying here, a little intimidating and confusing lol. Doing bait back in Maryland now, though! 👍🏼
I'm new to surf fishing and fishing in the ocean period. Ive always fished freshwater. Big into fishing for catfish. Also love to catch whatever I can. So this last week we went to the gulf and I learned that I could fish from the beach there. So I packed my best catfish tackle and tried my best but the ocean is a whole new world from freshwater. So to conclude I had no luck at all and didn't catch anything at all. I will say even with no luck that I'm hooked and dying to go back for some more!!!!! So I was wondering if you could give me some tips on tackle, rod and reel combos, rigs, bait what to look for when fishing. Anything would be greatly appreciated!!
+Bobby Ingram hey! I'm glad you are getting into some salt water! Honestly it's so rewarding. It will take a few tries to get the hang of it, but I made an episode for people just like you! Check it out, it's the "Ultimate shore fishing" video on my channel. Lemme know if it helps
Somtime you need to go to de lafayete river we got 38 inch striper they get BIG
Awesome
Hey brendon have u tried the lucky craft flash minnow. I hear it slays perch
I realy like ur chanel 😊
I started to get into surf fishing and fish at siesta key in fl, do you know any good surf fishing spots near that?
Radical Raichu never fished there before, but let me know if you find anything out.
there are spots in montauk that produce bass/blues 24/7 may-september. you just have to go way north and way south, and not in the tourrist lighthouse
+Daniel Maciag ahh I see! This was my first time, next time I head up I'll definitely try other places
Man you lucky if you girl likes fishing!
Nice job I saw you there you did well for your first time in Montauk
+Daniel C Fishing we were just getting the hang of things then we had to leave😫
I love you guys I hope to meet you guys someday and do some fishing.
I want to go see Montauk now, and other spots in Long Island. I’ve been looking at the coastlines on the map in satellite view.
We get dem on de storm lures
Hey when wearing waders in the surf put a belt on. It may save your life if you fall in the water.
What rod and reel were you using or would you recommend?
Great 🐟!!
+Gerry Shappell didn't catch me a striped bass😫 but you live and you learn. haha!
Senko Skipper lol....blues look really fun too though. I gotta make a trip up there now! been watching fishaholic fishing that area too....looks awesome.
+Gerry Shappell they are so strong. Those Blues were awesome to catch. Never seen them that big before Montauk.
Try live eels next time and the NORTH SIDE!
What test line and rod did you get?
