Surf Fishing for Stripers - The Beach Lip

[Oooweee]

This man is my fishing dad that I never had he taught me how to catch all kind of fish

[elveciojunior]

You did very well. Thanks for the tips. Its amazing how close the fish are. I'll never do that if I didn't see it. Congrats.

*Great item. First cast out of the package caught a nice bass. Pulls smooth in the water and sets up nicely immediately upon retrieval. Worth adding to your tackle box.*

John I love watching your videos you have given me much inspiration to start making my own. I still got s ways to go in the editing but I'm learning slowly but surely thanks for the vids and catch them up

[charlesmurray]

Scanned the QR code and assumed the video would be about beach structure. But all good. Always learn a bit reading and watching. Thank you!

Hey john, were the bass by sand or rocky area when you caught them. Thanks

[DaddyReminator]

Nice video, John! I'll be fishing the Cape Hatteras shore next week and will be sure to work the "lip" as you demonstrated. Thanks a bunch.

Do you know any good places to surf cast on the cape that tends to have small waves like lots of beaches you have fished in your vidios

[andrewhouse]

I take it back I got a 38 inch bass in riverhead last night they work great went with a 7 inch olive
Have u had luck with the black back at all?

[mfmiller]

Which rod are you using? Im thinking of getting a penn squadron, are they good for throwing small lures to bass?

[dtkrob]

Love watching your videos ! Makes me wish I was fishing right now ! Keep them coming !

How many oz do you recommend for he surf I use a 7/8 oz som wild eyes sand eel seems like I'm not greeting enough distance on my casts

[wavehead]

I really enjoyed the video. I just started surf fishing for Striper here in Monterey Bay. Have not hooked up yet. Great job

[terrybishop]

Great video as always John. What's some of the things you look for when selecting a beach location?

Do the cross winds ever cause an knots in the braid while casting? I just got a 7'6'' penn allegiance with penn SSV 5500 spooled with 20lb braid and every other cast a a knot will form anywhere between the reel and the tip of the rod. I think i spent 75% of my trip untangling knots. It was a bad first experience for me.

John I been trying these but I feel like the don't get distance I work a bolder field a lot in riverhead area and unless the bass area with in 20 ft or less I'm not reaching them any suggestion to get firth I know distice on the ocean is not often a problem but just feel it's to light

[vinnyc]

hey john i noticed u always say u use a barrel swivel to connect your braid to leader do u ever just tie your braid to leader? i usually tie braid to leader and i was wondering if there may be a benefit to your method

[jefffromjersey]

When fishing hat beach lip close in like that have you ever tried more parallell casting ?  Also I like to use the smaller  ES 75 and ES 100 Tin Eel Squids with my eel rubber, as I can really retrieve very slowly and still impart action... What do you think in terms of Rigged as apposed to the the Tsunamis which are really about the best sand eel imitation out there, just out of the package ? 
thanks for another great video.

[liamtobin]

what rod should i get to pair with a penn fierce reel? i am looking for a light rod that can cast far. also what size fierce with a 10 ft rod? thanks so much i love your book

[theSairsoft]
