Shore Fishing for Limits+ of Winter Flounder with Sandworms and Gulp!

- A cold sunny day in April, didn't seem like a great day to catch much of anything, but went and tried for some Winter Flounder and found a pretty good bite! Sandworms caught some fish, then switched to the Gulp Sandworm which also worked. I fished a total of 3 hours for 6 fish, then filleted them, and ate them.

50 years ago you caught these by the bucket. Blood worms were the ticket. Chum with cat food or crushed mussels with yellow sinkers. Then they disappeared, now in NY you can keep 1.
It was increased to 2 over 12
wonder what made them disapper when u caught them by the bucket
Yes and just tossing hand fulls of rice or even pea size gravel for chum. In a boat we use to use a toilet plunger on a long stick to just stir up the bottom. You need to use about a size 4 long shank hook and only thread a two inch piece of worm.
@@davidbraun4922 foreign trawlers were constantly hitting the waters . You could stand on Jones Beach and see 5 trawlers at a time . Small size , no limits back them , sign , those were the days my friend
@@davidbraun4922 Honestly, many were lost due to the draggers / commercial fisherman. Then you had stupid people keeping fish you could see through. When I was a child and learning to fish, the winter flounder were in great abundance. I went on a party boat with my dad. We caught many, but through back tons because they were too small. I decided to walk around the boat and saw another angler who kept every single flounder he caught, no matter the size. I grabbed one of the small ones, you could just about see through it, and asked him why he kept it, there's no meat on it. Unfortunately, there were too many anglers like this one. I went on another fishing trip for winter flounder later with a friend of mine and his dad. We caught close to 100 flounder between us, we only kept 45. We threw back all the ones we could tell were females. This was all before there were regulations. So, both commercial and recreational fisherman are to blame. The fishery should be completely closed to both for 5 years. No bi-catch allowed of winter flounder for commercial. Don't get me started on Fluke or Seabass regs.
Geez! Winter flounder were as common as spearing in the 60’s and most of the 70’s. Jamaica bay, The entire shore from Sandy hook NJ to Montauk point was paved with them. We anchored up in four foot of water in East Moriches and frequently had over 150 fish. Don’t worry, we only kept 10 or so. In the late 70’s they rapidly dwindled and as of the 80’s they were gone.
“Dirty little fish” lol that’s the 5 star seamoney commentary we all love
Ohhh god he’s in the tree got me dying laughing 😂😂
Nice! Your solo mission adventures have always been my favorite fishing vids on CZcams
Flounder are literally the only fish I ever caught shore fishing as a kid now not only do I rarely catch flounder I rarely catch anything lmao
Good shit. If you ever do this again and wanna chum, a carp bait spomb works good from shore. Chopped up clams, sandworms and beach sand mixed up.
Cool video...haven't seen so many winter flounder caught in one day in decades. They also like clams and mussels. I used to put a piece of corn on after hooking the before mentioned or the worm. It would help keep it on the hook a little better.
That tree interception was epic
for sure, I used to catch them all over the North Shore of Island in the mid 70's. I hope they make a come back...they were easy to catch and good eating!
Awesome spring fishing in the salt ponds!!
Love feeling like I'm back in jersey listening to your commentary.
Great to see. When I was a kid, a long time ago, we could catch as many as we wanted. They’re not shy. You don’t need a whole sandworm…… see you at Dave’s.
I do a ball with the worm 🪱 on the hook, and then use a little bit of magic thread (red) to hold it, it works really good, and for stripers, a much bigger amount of worms kept in place the same way…..
Enjoyed your video. Thank you. Keep them coming
Enjoyed the obscure inshore fishing outing
Ga, the cooking sequences never get old.
Winters are very tasty. Haven't fished for them in 35 years. But in the 60s & 70s we got loads of them in Barnegat bay up to 3 3/4 lbs. I recall the smell of the meat smelling like shrimp when cleaning them. Didn't bleed them out back then.
Good stuff man, love the subject matter.
It's all part of spring for me and my friends. Shad, Flounder, Opening day trout, Striped Bass and the Blues last of all. How can you not enjoy fishing with bait ( Sandworms & Bloodworms) that can bite you and draw blood? Great video. Happy safe travels and God bless.
Love the variety
Get yourself a baiting needle. We use them regularly for ragworm (think it’s your sand worm) in the uk. Another trick we do is dunk them before you cast. Helps them stiffen up a bit and toughen up. Regular cast them out to 150yrds with a 5oz sinker and catch good flatties doing it.
Another good video... you're the man Chris
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸. Beautiful ocean. Nice video🌷🌷
Look at them party boat cutting skills 👏
Very cool bucket list for me only tried once so far
Them pile worms work amazing for strip bass also!
I used to throw a lot of sandworms into tough conditions ...surf ,bridges sod banks ....the whole worm will stay on if u turn your hook as soon as u dig In to head and pinchers and turn hook out u can put two big sands on and cast into wind
"Oh god, hes in a tree" 🤣🤣 best fishing channel on youtube😂
Nice catch, cook and eat!
great video.
That was dope bro
Try bank mussels pick them yourself shuck em and salt them have always worked very well for winter flounder if u don't want to buy the sandworms next time
🔥🔥 i got a winter flounder limit in NY video coming out Monday. They have been so hard to catch now, only got four so far this year smh
only gonna get worse while people still keep them
@@maxchronister7713 well as long as there is a legal limit then you can’t complain, most people can’t catch them anyway
@@TheReidsOutdoors wtf are you on? of course I can complain, inadequate legal limits are the reason they're so rare. You must be borderline braindead if you couldn't put that one together.
@@TheReidsOutdoors wtf are you on? of course I can complain, inadequate legal limits are what caused them to become rare. How stupid do you have to be to not figure that out?
@@maxchronister7713 relax tuff guy, while yes you can complain but that ain’t stopping anyone from doing what they are allowed to legally do
It's not a seamoney vid if something doesn't go wrong while cleaning the fish. But did not expect a carcass hanging in a tree
Some good eating!!
That’s wild local tackle shops don’t sell the fin strike yellow long shank flounder hooks with the little corn nugget those are in every tackle shop in mass
Flounder in the tree!
If you’re up for a road-trip we’re getting 18-22’s down here in Charleston South Carolina. They came early this year!
winter flounder in sc?
ok can we air the grievences? winter flounder not southern flounder, northern kingfish not sea mullet or whiting, mole crabs not sand fleas sorry just hitting everything
@@crappie72 what are u even talking about? this guy was saying hes catching winters in south carolina im just saying theyre probably not.
I still fish em here in the north east one of my favorite fish to catch eat
Bunker babyyyy
Its amazing how you can say how rare these fish are now compared to years past and then kill the ones you catch instead of taking one and leaving the rest to breed
its amazing that you feel the need to give the guy a hard time for taking 2 fish instead of 1. SMH.
It’s amazing that people care less about collapsing ecosystems and more about dinner and content
Thanks for sharing! Probably a long shot but here on the west coast when moneys short I've caught saltwater fish on night crawlers. Much cheaper than sand shrimp here. Give it a try?
Nice
Nice work mang, they are delicious. Did you filet them in a swamp?
Lewes tackle shop alway has them
Dont use the whole worm, flounder mouths are tiny and the worms are expensive. When i was a kid in the seventies, early eighties we would cut a worm into five, six pieces worked great would catch dozens all you need is a little piece and you dont have the problem of casting the worm off.
That's not a worm. That's a devil spawn.
I think I saw you fishing Narragansett last Saturday. Did you go to a large rock for a short period of time?
We call em Ragworm here in the UK..
❤👌
19:26 Tree Flounder
Do you know where to catch them in New York City
Where for catching it???
Lmao flounder frisbee
Hey brother, looking to get on a party boat for flounder in late July. Looking to go out of point pleasant nj. Your thoughts on which boat? And any other tips are appreciated!
Jamaica 2 does pretty well.. dauntless would probably be seabassin, sometimes the sneaky thing to do is hop on a seabass trip which goes further offshore and just target fluke, which could be a bust, but you might end up catching better quality that way.
@@ChrisMcIntee Thanks for the tip. Hopefully we get on some fat ones.
Gang
night cralwers work
worms tend to have parasite worms on them, which are really bad.
So tasty
4 feet of water only goes to your knees😅
we call these ''sandworms'' zagers in holland.. so they actually have a name somwhere..
You caught 2 horseshoe crabs fuckin, you better buy some lottery tickets man that's a wild bycatch XD
Too many people taking too many buckets full of fish and now after we shit up the ocean too, we can only keep 2 fish. And only 1 striper. And there aren't any more 60 pound cod either. We humans are doing a good of wrecking what we love. Tight LInes, Joe
14.5”? 17 1/2? New England. Wtf? Please explain
Where's the old sea money at ? I used to enjoy hearing all the whistling during the video especially when you were successful at catching
I enjoyed ur video, we did a test, and we found that Berkeley power worms 🪱 work better than the reel thing 😊
