BIG Spoons - BIG Fish - AMAZING Fishing!

This fishing lure is a game changer! I was blown away by the numbers and size of the fish that I caught on this spoon while others on the boat fishing traditional rigs struggled. This lure was invented for Largemouth Bass fishing, but is tearing it up in saltwater!

And just like that, every spoon was sold out in the NorthEast! Mr Sinner is truly a legend and thumbs up for the captain, sacrificing his fishing opportunity to keep ‘em on the fish. Excellent work all around

I've watched just about every one of John's videos and at this point I'm convinced it's the stripers that are trying to catch John, not the other way around.

Awesome video John as always!!! Mike Smedley and Team Old School slaughter the Stripers on Nichols spoons in Raritan Bay and the Chesapeake even in shallow water. I just got one of the Nichols spoons and haven’t gotten a chance to use it yet.

Hey John, there’s a guy on U tube, his channel is called Old school Fishing and he’s a big advocate of using spoons and he dose extremely well catching Strippers!

I've been using the Nichols spoons for several years. Although originally designed for largemouth bass, they can be ordered upgraded "saltwater" hardware. They have been amazing for redfish, jack crevalle and various other near shore species.

Great trip. It was amazing watching John reel in one fish after another with his rod and the new spoon.

Well that was just insane. Who would have thought in a million years that a simple spoon would out fish, and out size anything else on the boat. Might have to try a variety of spoon sizes for some bottom fish like black sea bass/porgies. Great video as always.

Just wow big stripers everywhere, great video Mr Skinner as always is a pleasure for me to see you fishing and teaching all those long years of experience

@John Skinner Fishing for someone who's never fished a spoon before, you doing quite good brother. Keep at it you're catching nice stripers

[buythedip]

I use them on large spinning tackle for stripers where you can dump the line letting the spoon quickly get down to depth. Found you can have the spoon drop faster vertically with very slight finger resistance as it free spools down vs the normal jigging action of barrel rolling in complete free spool.

9:13 to 14 .. line goes completely SLACK just after John is saying he just got hit and thought he missed it ... LOL

[ncsojourner]

there goes one of my secrets when I used to spank 'em on the OBX.!
Surf casting, Many good memories!

1997-2006, rip
Last one on the massive spoon was 2005, reels n wheels striper tourney.

Excellent John.

With spoons and slow pitch jigs like that, if you want the jig to drop down quicker you don't want to lower it with slack line because it will flutter all the way down and take forever to sink. Instead put a little thumb resistance on the spool and this will keep the jig straight up and down and sink much faster. It will keep it from fluttering

[jfish]

What a trip. One thing important to note is the Gut and the Race are holding a body of bass not seen in decades right now.

I saw this boat being launched at gull pond, nice young man had just tuned her up and improved the navionics for his dad. Man, what an awesome machine!

[mccandrj]

Been using them for two years! I found when there is big blues around they work best. Stripers hanging around the bottom from whats left from the blues. Plus, I swap the treble with a single 8/0 and sometime throw a big piece of squid, like I use for fluke. Represents a wounded bunker, or when your back at FL a mullet!

[BobbyGats]

yes! John Skinner that's what we need!

[josephoberle]

GREAT VIDEO JOHN WE HAVE BEEN USING THESE SPOONS THE MONTH OF JUNE IN THE WESTERN SOUND AND ME AND MY FISHING BUDDIES HAVE CAUGHT WELL OVER A 100 LARGE STRIPPED BASS EACH ON MY BOAT.
