One thing that helped me learning was to make a long cast , put a piece of electrical tape on the spool at the end of the cast and that way if you do backlash it doesnt get way down in the spool. So you spend more time practicing and less time picking out backlashes.
intro was awesome and video was excellent. I think it was one of the best You have ever done. 15 years ago I was fishing lake Eufaula in Oklahoma. I fished a row of 8 docks caught one 3lb fish. Luckily I saw a Pro fisherman coming into the cove. I asked if I could watch Him fish to pick up some pointers. He was very polite, open and willing to let Me watch. He fished the same docks with the same jig I had fished the docks with. He caught 5 fish probably 16 to 18 lbs off the same stretch. The casting accuracy and being able to skip that jig way under the docks was obviously the difference. There are levels to everything and it was obvious I was not close to his. I am still not close. Sharing your ability and knowledge with the younger anglers coming up is awesome. Us old guys appreciate as well. #justdontsuck
Just got my ace jigs and spent the last 3 days practicing caught a 5lb on a dock while I was doing it.
Great content Kyle. Thanks for going over this again. 🎣
Good stuff Kyle! 👊🏼💯🇺🇸
Thanks for the tips my friend!
You always have great content, presented in way that are easy to understand. Thanks.
Nice job guys, I enjoyed that, just hearing Kyle’s thoughts an process an how he does it, definitely helpful for the next time I head back out an practice my skipp’n. keep up the grinding , I can’t wait for derby season to start again!!
Great video Kyle!!! I’m still learning how to skip but this helps me to better connect the dots.
Thanks brother. Awesome video
Excellent!! Thanking ya!
That was awesome
Great video and going into all the works of skipping a bait. Will be trying this out on the water next time.
I've caught alot of fish this past year behind people because I was skipping through and under cover. It's the best skill I've picked up the past 18 months.
Great video.
Love your videos …
I am hooked on jigs and skipping jigs now …
Thank you
Awesome video Kyle!
Great tips
Thanks. Good luck next year
Kyle Welcher. The people’s champion. Thanks for hearing us and making this video. Super helpful.
You must of seen me yesterday struggling skipping docks this vid posted the day after .. good looking … very informative like always … awesome vid …
Great video definitely helpful
Thanks for taking the time to explain the differences between sniper, shooter, and leader. That was helpfull
Awesome video !!!!!
Thanks for the skipping tutorial!! Little harder if a co-angler in back of boat seems I can't always get that correct angle. Stay Safe & God Bless!!
Great tipps 💯
Hey buddy I just ordered a bunch of your ace jigs can’t wait to use I use a lot of bitsy and D&L jigs thanks for info
Great video 📹 👍 Thank you
Not sure how you gunna get better at skipping but ok,lol,you are the skipping master if u ask me,your ace jig has helped me tremendously with skipping,I can't pit it down,it's all I want to do is look for stuff to skip at,and it's paid off,thanks for the tips,great video
Great tips Kyle. I seem to get a bird nests when the form goes bad like you said about wild arms. And, don't know how you deal with it but a good chop on the water is a sucky day for skipping in my boat.
And...practice...practice...practice !!!
Cograts to Hunter for another excellent Team Welcher video production.
Is your boat still on schedule...hopefully, no suppy chain delays !!!
Best Wishes!!!
Thanks for the info bud. I try to keep in my mind to tickle the top of the water so that my initial contact won’t bomb my skip.
Great video !!!! GO TEAM WELCHER !!!
Thank you!
Like this video is very informational what I like is awesome video
Jacob Wheeler’s pitch skip is really a thing of beauty. I’m deadly with a spinning rod but I know it’s not practical. I know My reel was way too tight
Pitch skip is perfect for tough angles
Great video
Thank you
Great video, can you make a detailed video on how you clean and maintenance your reels
Great tips. God is good. God bless!
Awesome video Kyle. Taught this old angler a thing or 12. 👍
Yessir
The thing that made the biggest difference for me was release point. Don’t let go of the spool until the bait is in front of you . Once you figure out the correct release point. You’re golden
something i did when i started was peel off about 30 yds of line...put electrical tape across the spool...that way any backlashes only went to the tape....great video!!!!
That's a great tip
Senko on spinning reel helped me learn
Great video Kyle... Nice camera work Ms. Hunter! 👍 Metanium reels don't fit in my budget too well 😥
Do you have any more budget friendly options that would work well for skipping? Thanks!
I wish someone would do a tutorial on skip pitching! Trying to teach myself is not working very well.
Making a good cast then put a piece of tape on spool so no more line comes off helps w backlashing also
One drill that forces you to use your wrist is take a pack of worms and hold them your body with your elbow while you skip. If you drop the pack you are using more than your wrists.
kyle, as I watch this video, am making notes, comments. 1. 17° angle: is that rod to the water? how can you SHOW what a 17° angle LOOKS like? for instance: at 11:49 in the video, what part of that is 17°? 2. is there any advantage/disadvantage to line diameter? heavier lines vs lighter lines relative to spool depth on cast? know most of you tournament/southern anglers go way heavy on lines. really appreciate the videos you and hunter put together.
About where does the jig needs to hit the water first? Great information 👍
Thanks KW... great explanation of yoyr gear,I'm more confident skipping with the spinning reel, seems easier from a kayak. Or iflour? my head? Do the pros use line conditioner with the more abrasive flouro?
Thanks for doing this video Kyle; I was looking forward to it. A couple of quick questions please...How far ahead of you are you looking for that jig to make it's first contact in the water? Also, and I guess this varies with the bite that day...but are you feeling the fish hit the jig, or are you watching for the line to jump? Thanks as well, to Ms Hunter!
I typically feel the bite with the rod. It also depends on the length away the location is. The further away the closer I hit to the object
Thanks for the vid.
Do you have a code for point blank? Just made my first rod this weekend. It’s a MHX from mudhole, but wantin to look at some more blanks for my next.
Great video... however I believe I requested you just come and show me how to do it!!! LOL One day I will be skipping jigs like rocks!
Sir, could you please do a comparison of skipping jigs with a curado DC vs a standard baitcaster. This type comparison has not been done and it has never been addressed on you tube. Due to two totally different braking systems, people are confused about the ability of a DC reel to skip as good as a traditional baitcaster brake system.
Great video Kyle, great tips. What rod do you use to fish the Carolina rig
7'6" hvy fast
Magdraft freestyle is the easiest skiping lure I've thrown. They skip when you're not even trying.
Hey Kyle when you're skipping do you thumb the spool at all. Or just let it free spool. Thanks
I noticed during your cast you pull the rod back in the opposite direction of your cast especially toward the end of your cast is this to help overcome the friction of the jig skipping and have the spool maintain the same speed to prevent backlash or is there another reason for doing this
How far showed the bait hang from the rod tip
Great video, can you say which lake you were fishing thanks
Lake harding on the hooch
This biggest difference maker that I've learned about skipping is,
keep your elbow tucked into your side! It's all in the wrist. If your arm is straightened out and your elbow isn't touching your side, you're probably backlashing.
Noticed while you skipped you raised your rod during the process, does this help to keep the lure "light" on the water? Good video$$$
Yes that gains a little more distance when the momentum fades
Can I ask a question , my son wants to build rods what the better blanks out there to buy
Been to a lake near my hometown in SW Ohio and they got chains hanging up under the docks... haha. Don't mean I didn't try to skip a frog up under there 🤣
What reel you using?
Skipping is not easy- not for me anyway. The only trick I've found is to make a long cast, take some electrical tape and tape your line down on your spool- now if you blow it up, it only blows up to the tape and stops. Usually, you can get it out pretty quickly too- when there's not much line to blow up it doesn't make such a tangled mess. I hear the Curado DC is an excellent skipping reel- some ppl say it really helped them learn without blowing up so much. Here's the thing though- I love pitching and DC reels are notorious for not pitching very well. The DC sensor seems to get confused when you're not casting but pitching- it applies the brakes too often and too much. If you could turn the DC function off- I'd be all over it. Seems like a no brainer huh- can you turn it off? Does the reel work once the DC stuff has torn up? If it runs out of batteries- can you still use it? If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to see it- did it really fall? When I close my refrigerator door, does that little light really go off? Do those signs that say "slow men a work" mean those "slow kids at play" finally got a job?
I know you have probably said it many times before, but how much money do you actually have in a rod when you build it yourself like the one you are using this video.
How many yards of floro do you go through while learning to skip, hitting docks and backlashing?
Best thing to do is buy a roll of mono learn to skip and then use flouro.
Kyle, you said a 7'3" heavy, I'm only 5'5". Would that be too long of a rod for me?
Kyle you say set your reel up loose but I’m already having problems backlashing when skipping. What am I doing wrong?
You are throwing it too hard. Now don’t get me wrong you will still have a backlash every now and then, but if you are getting backlashes every skip you are skipping too hard. Turn your breaks up a bit until you get the technique and angle down. Once you get that down then you can scale your breaks and cast control knob back and have your reel looser. The thing about skipping is it’s a feel for it kind of thing. I watched countless videos on skipping, I didn’t get it until I hit the water and started practicing the angle. Keep your elbow pinned, roll your wrist, thumb your spool and get the bait low to the water like skipping a rock across the water. Keep practicing, don’t get frustrated, it will take some time to get good at it. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE. Take one rod and reel and get good with it. Remember to use your underhand roll cast while trying to skip jigs. One more tip. Take some electrical tape, make a cast, put the electrical tape on your spool. This will keep you from blowing up your reel. Also practice with mono until you get good at skipping. Mono is a boat load cheaper than floro.
@@missinlink6733 Thank you for your advise.
100th like......what did I win? 😂
This was so good. Camera man sucked though
Good video but next time have the person taking the video show the lure skipping.
Did you really say "a lot of people that fish aren't good with angles and numbers"? And why would that be smart guy? You trying to say that we're a bunch of dummies? I can't speak for everybody but I myself passed college level calculus with flying colors. And I'm sure that the majority of anglers out there know what a 17° angle is. But hey I really appreciate the condescending attitude.
Well I fish and I never said I was good with numbers. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings
Shimano is missing out not paying you $$$
Could you go back to the beginning and take a breath and slow down a little Kyle. Dang!!! LOL no wander your fish so fast!
