Great video. The frog is one thing I want to get better at skipping! Happy to see you post.
You just gave the best skipping lesson on you tube . Thank You
The pimp slap was the best and funniest way to get the point across! Never laughed a skipping video before.
Skipping is a technique that I have wanted to master for a long time. Your video is by far the most informative that I have seen. Thanks!
Totally enjoy hearing his explanation on skipping. I roll cast when I’m pitching either hand and do a lot of backhand so I may be. Able to skip with some practice. But it’s so windy today and cold so I’m not going today.
Just noticed that Nick casts with both hands. Frickin' amazing
I hear you that Guy is an outstanding caster. Unbelievable but bro he lives on the water he's had a lot of time and practice.
Growing up fishing in Alabama learning to skip docks is a must. Lots of pros have their own way of doing it and excessive practice is a must. Many of the pros have their own form that works for them. There is no one set way to do it. Thanks for showing how you skip.
Sir I am from India, never seen such a wonderful video with tons of information before. You have stuffed all basic ideas about a Bait caster reel in this video. Keep rocking 🙂🙏
Awesome video ,,, you have given so many tips on how to skip a lure fishing under docks. Applauds YOU ..
Found your video to be very educational! Thankyou for all your expertise
Not only did you help me with skipping, I also learned some things about just fishing!
🙏🏽
This is like watching David Copperfield , I love topwater lure and blow up.. and I just saw this .. can’t wait to start learning
Good stuff Nick. I’ve been skipping for a year. I’m pretty good at it right off the bat, but haven’t tried all the ways your doing. Anxious to try them. Thx for your techniques and sharing them. Not very many so called pro teach this much technique. I’m 69 years old and always like learning new stuff. Keep the faith 👍🥸🙏
Thanks Bruce, I think I will do an updated advanced level skipping special this summer.
Very entertaining and INFORMATIVE video! 👌
Hope 2 see you at the Modesto Toyota event! The kids from the San Joaquin Bassmasters should be there and ready to lend a hand👍
Fantastic, see y’all there!
Great video. The line management tips are awesome.
Thanks Nick.
Holy shit are you a left handed person using a right handed reel!?
It makes me so happy when i see this. Or when a right handed person using a left hand reel.
I cannot take fisherman seriously when they do it the wrong way.
I’m ambidextrous, thanks bro!
That was the best instructional video I’ve seen. Going to have to check out the rest of your videos. Trying to get better at skipping and now with your tips I feel like I will be a lot better. Now you got me itching to get out there as soon as possible. Thanks!!!
I found you early in my fishing journey. You have taught me so much. I cant believe your channel has not taken off yet. Keep it up my guy. You have helped me land alot of fish.
Thanks bro, my channel got shadow banned years ago. Not an issue though my other platforms are big too and I’m a full time fishing spokesperson
I was wondering what happened. It was like you disappeared. Glad to hear about your success. You have tons of knowledge.
Hey,….. loved this video on skipping frogs. Best skipping video I’ve seen yet. Didn’t know there were so many variations on skipping. Have to get out on the water and start practicing. Very excellent video. Thanks so much!
Thank you!
Frog's! My favorite violent reaction lure! can't wit to hit over hanging tree cover at my bass water
This is the best skipping video I've seen deep dive into the mechanics of the cast.👍👍👍🤏🤏
Saw you on Debo's. I subscribed and hit the bell. RUclips suggested this video. Surprised me after what you had said.
I’ve followed you since 2015 and you’ve taught me allot. I thought I was decent until this video, didn’t realize there were so many skipping options! I’m about to level up, you’ve given me something to work on! Thank you for years of great content!
Appreciate the support brother!
Pimp bass slap? 😂 got it!
😆
Wow. Absolutely the best skipping lesson on RUclips. A master class for sure. I get it now. You broke it down and explained it perfectly!! That is some serious juice. Thank you
Glad to help, thanks Kevin!
You are the master Nick... I really like the tape trick... thank you IF.
Thank you, great explanation! You are not only an excellent fishing master, but also a good teacher!
Thank you!
I generally fish really snaggy shallow water (2 feet). Darwin Australia chasing barramundi. Because of this and what you mention at 12 minutes I learned to reel left handed as I cannot cast well left handed. This way I can cast and be immediately onto the reel.
incredible! Thanks!! and especially for revisiting frog hook sets!!!
Best video I’ve seen on skipping thus far.
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.
Sorry just now reading this, so I’ve played with the DC reels and in all honesty I feel like the hinder experienced peoples abilities. That being said, I love to have them when some in inexperienced in the boat. I myself had to shut all the breaking off on them when I pick them up 😆
@@InformativeFisherman thanks much
Nick, this is the kind of video I need to see. Thanks.
this video is so underrated ! amazing video sir!!
Thank you bro!
What an excellent teaching video!! I need to go fishing 2 to n 3 days in a row for a while to improve my casting. I use to pitch pretty good but have lost the touch. Seems like my start up speed on my reels is off but probably have em to tight or to many pins out. Baits are rising instead of accelerating towards the target.
Great added info on skipping not mentioned in other videos.
Great video Nick. You’ve inspired me to commit to becoming a better skipper this summer.
How’s the skipping now?
Excellent demonstration
Great video! You make it look easy like Sunday morning.
Best skip video out there
By far
So……ooooo………oooooo…….far
And, I’m under the dock
Always appreciate these long super informative videos
🤙🏼 thank you!
Nick is the dude. I appreciate this. Keep it up my man.
Thanks bro, will do!
Hey man thank you for the breakdown and tips. Great video! How do you rig the swim bait or fluke? I guess I missed that. Also what bait do you use and hooks please. Thanks again THIS video taught me to skip!!
I Texas rig my flukes on 4/0 EWG, thanks man, that’s awesome!
Do you use a tungsten bullet weight or only the 4/0 EWG? (Weightless?)
I've been pretty good at skipping, but hearing it described with "mending" just made a lot of other things click in my mind 🤙
a great video and very in depth. thanks for doing it
What a great video even I can understand it. I love how you took your time expaining the mechancs, thank you
Absolutely bro, thanks for watching!
You make it look easy. I can't wait to try it. Thanks for sharing. 👏👏👏
Still trying to perfect skipping in general, lol. Thanks for the video bro.
Absolute clinic! Great vid!
🤗
glad that I found your video. wish I have find it earlier. Very very helpful with all the explanations.Thanks
Glad to help!
@@InformativeFisherman now i can do skipping with high confident. thanks
Hey Nick, I saw this video a lot of times and I´m trying to improve my technique with frogs flukes and jigs for my sea bass fisheries thanks for the tips! looking forward for the next clips! keep on the rigth stuff!
Hey nick that is the best dock , frog skipping video I have ever seen and your casting skills are absolutely outstanding nick . I have medical issues and I haven't been able to go fishing for two seasons and it really sucks. But that's what happens when get near 60 yrs old. Hey nick i I want to purchase a Lew's skipping reel to make it a little easier on me tell me your thoughts. GOD bless you and your family your pal fisherman Mike from Missouri.
How did it go with that reel? And thank you!
Thank you. Very informative indeed.
Great video. You really explained it well and I will be practicing.
Thanks for the great video. What kind of boat are you fish on, can you show us what it looks like?
It’s a customized 1980 Ranger, yeah I can do a video on my boats soon
Thanks Nick 👍🎣
I would love to see the boat too. Lol. I like that thing
Great video. Learned a lot. Can’t wait to try it out on the water. Thanks.
Keep me posted, thanks!
Question, the answer may be in your video, But let ask, when your lure is down 6 inches plus or minus. Do you have a dot on that looping to release the lure? Say you start the swing at 6:00 pm and end in upper say 11 am , do release at 7 am. Or similar example of the best place to release the lure. Thanks hope that makes sense!
@0:54 i ain't never seen someone skip and have it CURVE dude WHAT
Yeah that a bending slide skip, I will teach it soon
@@InformativeFisherman Love your channel dude!!
@@billyjin2062 🤘🏼
@@InformativeFisherman hey man I just wanted to let you know that I just made the first successful skip cast with a jig in my life on a baitcaster after applying the stuff I learned in this video. You did a great job explaining it I've watched a lot of videos but this was the one that seemed to tie things together and make a click.
@@billyjin2062 that’s what’s up! Keep after it and it will become natural in no time!
Nice video! Also can you do some striper and salmon videos? I really enjoyed some of your older fishing videos when you fish and give some tips on what your doing. But thanks you have helped me become a better at fishing! 🎣
I have a striper one coming early next week and yea one new salmon coming and two more striped bass 🤙🏼
Good job. Great instruction
Thank you!
My trouble seems to lie on where I should initiate the skip. Should I want the skip to start right at the dock or overhanging limb or rather closer to me, skipping all the way to the target. Also, are you aiming at the initial point of impact or are you aiming at the intended target at the end of the skip. You're a fantastic teacher and I sincerely appreciate you sharing so much!!!! 👍
Typically it’s about half way to the target no matter how close I am. Rewatch from 28min in again it might help a bit more and thank you!
Aim at your target. Keep your eyes on the prize and see your skip through the target. You want your lure to hit midway between your target / point of entry and yourself. Just get out on the water and keep practicing. Watching Videos help, but time on the water teach you and help correct your mistakes. If you have a go pro record yourself and see what you are doing wrong.
Thank you for all the info your great!
Been waiting for this video from you. Thank you.
Absolutely, thanks for watching 🤙🏼
Great video! When do you know which color frog to throw and what flukes do u throw (color,size,hook,etc.) Thank you!
I use the Yamamoto D-shade with 4/0 BKK Chimeras
Great video.
What weight is that frog lure?
Wondering if mine is too light.
Haha 90s pimp smack! Good analogy bro!
I've had success skipping jigs into dock posts and the fish hits it on the fall. Is there anything about the knock (or ping on aluminum docks) that entices the fish? 🤔
In dirty water I do think it helps
Nice Vid Informative man-boob Fisherman 💪
🤣
Absolutely amazing and helpful! Thank you!
Lilly pads will cut 65 pound braid sometimes it pisses me off so bad when high Dollar heav beaid fails on lilly pads
How do you skip them from a float tube all of this depends on standing and being vertical. I’ve had to adopt a spinning reel from float tubes because it’s just very difficult to not backlash on a bait caster when you’re actually sitting down in the water
I’ve done it but yes I agree it can be more difficult
This is such great info
Thanks bro
Thank you excellent video
At My Quail LakesThe Bass Don't Really Get Under The Docks it's Weird I Get More Fish Up Tight To The bulkhead Wall
I’ve got them under the docks back before they dyed the lake. Now the fish are blind to UV
@@InformativeFisherman Ya I Have Been Fighting The Homeowner Association For Like 7 years Now i Am Getting Tiered Of Them Not Even Listening To Me And Others About That Stupid Dye Chemical Crap i Found Some Info That Says That if You Get 90% of The Homeowners To Are To Get Rid Of the Homeowner Association You Can Thanks For The Videos Stay Safe
@@FRANKRICECOLD209 force them to listen, that place looks horrible.
Good lesson
Thank you so much for the lesson you are a great teacher
Thank you!
Great content! Thanks!
Your video is Great! Nice job!
Thanks!
Great video man
Thanks!
Great info. Thanks
Pretty pup onboard
Thanks so much for the informative video! I am a short guy, I think 7’4” is a bit too long for me, are you over 6’? I might try 7’1”
I’m 6’6” rod length has little to do with height
Good stuff
Hi Nick, loved the video! I've tried to skip from my kayak but it seems so difficult. Any tips for that? Did I mention that I loved this video? You are amazing and I've learned so much from watching you.... thanks from S Korea :-)
Thanks Matt! Are you standing in the kayak? If sitting it can be much more difficult. I would suggest really practicing the mechanics I showed but in the air and progressively move lower
The dog reacted to the hook set real quick.
I don’t know if you will answer my questions, so far no response from you. When you skip do you look or aim at a spot on the water for the lure to hit or do you just aim for a spot under the dock or tree??
Big homie,wassup with a bass charter? 💰 still need my trophy bass pic
Lol, I might auction off a trip a month but I’m no guide. I’m way to competitive 😆
👍 👌great information
Thank you
Is like to do a backhand in tennis
💯
Cara que top esse seu pitch skipping
Amazing！
Mantap master 👍
You said that's a private lake do they own the water
Yes, you should fish a fluke weightless
Assuming you have 2 rods then?
Great video, this is by far my downfall. Outstanding video as always.
Bravo
