Flounder Fishing - SLAYING WITH BACON!!!

- We were Kayak Fishing for Flounder (fluke) in New Jersey Waters picking through some short fish and the occasional borderline keeper when I decided to whip out the magic bait.. I missed a few bites at first as it was a little different timing the hookset with the bacon but once I got that first fish it turned into a fast action bite and I got my limit of fluke in an hour! This was after fishing since the crack of dawn with no keepers to show... and only catching the occasional sub legal size fluke every so often. I am almost reluctant to post this video as I fear the Fluke population will take a hit but regardless, keep this in mind the next time you are going Fluke fishing. I was pretty sure this would work but I didn't know it would work that well... the only fish the 3 of us caught this day over 20" were on the bacon..
I was using a 3/4oz Pink/white Magictail Bucktail which you can only find at your local shops here in NJ and the northeast.. Custom handmade finest quality / magictail-bucktails-36...
I bought the bacon at Wawa on Ridge Ave in Philadelphia.
My rod is a 7' Custom made by Pompano Bay, a fintastic rod for this style of light tackle jigging. www.pompanobayr...

Don’t let it go to your head. You decided to flea the cooler, he didn’t throw you back, just the small ones
Most of them weren't legal to keep..
tumBo DaDon That’s the joke
this video had me so hype. "ohhhhh sonnnn, that bacon!" nice doormat!
I've been using bacon for the last 10 years to catch fish. It was bacon that caught the first fish among our group in a local mountain lake when everyone thought there was nothing to catch and failed with everything else. I think it's the oils, they can really travel in the water. It's my secret bait and it brings me joy to know others are finding success with it as well.
That was freakin amazing!! I will definitely try that down here in Texas.
Bacon, I use to catch winter flounder on bacon. The NY daily news did a blurb about it 55 years ago, when I was a teenager, never tried it for summer flounder. Watching this video brought back the memories. Thanks
thats cool to hear! thanks!
You have no idea how happy it makes me that you call them flounder not fluke
Well there are many types of flounder so it's actually nice when people are specific to species. Our winter flounder "sole" up here don't hit jigs. So, if people are looking for information to target specific fish it's good to know.
Nolan Minor I
Then what do you call flounder? Fluke?
Glenn Krzeminski.... you can call them flounder. I like how he says summer flounder later in the video, but specific flounder usually have specific names. summer flounder are called "fluke". they have teeth and are very aggressive eaters. winter flounder are called "sole", they have no teeth and have small mouth and eat scuds and worms. But overall there are so many types of flounder and there are not common names for all so call them flounder but use the first part of it as well, whether it be winter, summer, yellow tail, windowpane, etc.....
Glenn Krzeminski SPOTTED FLATFISH BEHBEH!
Just because they bit on bacon today doesn't mean they will every time. It's another arrow in the quiver, so to speak. Three weeks ago I was killing them on Gulp, for two weeks now all they have want is minnows. Go out to wrecks every time and they will bite mackeral and Gulp combo, or fresh strip baits. In the back it's different every day. Last year I had live mullet, minnows, peanut bunker and spot that I cast netted the day before. Three guys on the boat and we all tried something different throughout the day. All 18 flounder we caught were on minnows, they would not touch the other three live baits. Best vid yet Sea Money, thumbs up!
thanks and yea you are right, every day is different out there, I will be buying another pack of bacon next time I go to see how it performs against the gulp
cant believe i watched all of this
Makes total sense with the great action, scent trail it leaves and i'm sure the salty flavor helps them commit to the bite. Awesome out of the box approach!
I guess you could say he was going ham on those fish. :0

Bryan Malick clever comment. lol
whole hog! ----late reply
"Right now, you're both getting outfished by bacon!" - Awesome!
I use to fish with bacon, hot dogs or bologna. my dad would buy expensive sea worms. I would out catch him every time!!
the way he said OMG, I was memorized LOL. I had to rewind it like 5 times. This was an awesome video. I enjoyed watching it.
16:36 You will always remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Flounder
This guy is annoying
lol that
2:08 "That's a bacon flounder right there"
God I love this channel.
We've been using bacon rind in the uk for many years, try using just the white fat in long strips just hooked in the end so that it moves in the tide giving it some lifelike movement.And used this way it can gently be used from the shore in cast and retrieve , a bait that is now seldom use but used properly can be deadly
Another Shiny Hunter Cruz
Anyway
Another Shiny Vibrer
Yo, a flounder just jumped out of my cooler... that's fucked up.😂😂😂 I'm dead
I just want you to know. I saw this video and a couple days later was surf fishing a tournament on assateague island. Well I told my dad about this. Bacon for flounder. So the second day he brought some bacon well we used it and my uncle caught a little Bluefish on it. Then my girlfriend who wasn't fishing the tournament got bored so I decided to rig something up for her. She put on a double bottom right made for flounder and on the bottom hook I out a piece of bacon. And first cast right in the wash she cause the biggest flounder of her life. 19 1/4 inches LMAO. So thank you for this little. Bit of knowledge it did come in handy. FYI she would have had the largest fish.
This is my favorite fishing channel now.
EDean_ 23 ok
Same
I like the part "dude it jump out my cooler" had me laughing man. amazing trio there with that bacon. great experimentation and something I thought should work knowing how well the pork rinds work. Awesome videos and always entertaining.
We know now flounder are not muslums
Darrin Moneer best comment in the world
Darrin Moneer lmfao
not true they eat turkey bacon
XD
Scott S somebody hasn't had bacon today
16:36 yo, a flounder just jumped out of my cooler.. that's fucked up...
Yeah fluky was like " P Sherman 42 wallaby way?"
WissahickonWild Finding nemo?
Surf fishing. Whiting are killing it! Thanks for the tip.
It is confirmed. Everything likes bacon, FLOUNDER included!!!
Extreme Philly Fishing love your videos Leo
Lets see, multi-species challenge with bacon or catfishing with bacon, whats next?
shhhhhh....
been using it for Bluegills for about 50 year.
Uncle Josh sold hundreds of millions of those little jars for a reason!
Iam so happy for you guys. YOU and seamoney and lunkers etc, theres no compitition, there's no dick size comp, its just "lets fish, lets film it, lets show the world"
you guys absolutely rule and im so happy to be an angler from south jersey.
28 years now!
Extreme Philly Fishing hey man if your in Oregon I know good spots for both freshwater and salt
Whats better than waking up and watching a Sea-Money video? Nothing. Thanks for the upload bud.
TIP:
Increase the strip length and let them triple tap it. Always try for a vertical hook set. The ones you catch, you won't need to measure.
Tight lines.
I love fishing with you on these videos cause of the enthusiasm --- thanks- everybody loves bacon or pork roll but Romo is reluctant- reluctant Romo
Sea money fishing thanks sooooooo much I'm going to New Jersey shore this week for vacation thanks for great fishing tips
I hope you enjoy our state/shore and have good luck fishing! The local fishermen are usually more than happy to share info, especially with people not from the area. But, apparently all you need now is a buck-tail jig and some bacon. lol
Great testimony to the wonder of Bacon! I love it more after seeing your video
I heard hotdog poppers really slay the stripers!
Oysters, hermit crab tails and live shrimp are some of the best. I'm lettin bacon speak for it's self! Awesome!
Richard Huff huff
Charlie Stelzer the stuff stuff
The fact you didnt put a bacon link in the profile, with the rest of the gear, upset me.
John F. Martin hickory smoked... best bacon around...
Love your fluke fishing videos!
It's illegal here in South Australia to use any animal products or offal for fishing, it attracts sharks and not the little ones either... but goes to show what bacon can catch. Nice video.
Anything other than land based animal parts.
Well using fish attracts sharks as well . So I would break the rules
You should try using salt fastback, it stays on the hook real well and you can slice it as thick or thin as you want. I used to use it like a plastic worm for bass and it worked great
16:36 Absolutely legendary😂😂😂
Joey D o yea that cooler lid is hard to open too, that was ridiculous haha I was laughing when I edited that part
Sea-Money Fishing yea i was cracking up lol, do you think bacon might be better than gulp baits?
Sea-Money Fishing could you imagine the stories that fish is going to tell the flounders "yo man I was in the cooler man" lol 😂
lol
Bro, your reaction to the flounder escape was hilarious! Lol. "Oh my god".
Def broke the internet with this one
hummm..who would of think ..?...well atleast i know the bacon gets them for this summer for sure, what about for sea bass..thanks
Finally someone else that knows about bacon. I've been using bacon since I was a kid.
this makes sense. weren't "soft plastics" made of pork rind or fat until the 70s?
Outdoors MD No. Soft plastics were soft plastics, however pork rinds were also popular baits, especially on jigs for bass fishing.
The old Field and Stream magazines I had from the 1950s and 60s had port rind "soft plastics" in them. Uncle Josh made them up to 2015.
Well maybe it was just the gelatin in pork fat
Simply the Baconater!!!
The Bacon saved your Bacon-Lol
Thx for sharing!
is that maple bacon or hickory smoked? Do you think pepper bacon might create even hotter action?
hot pepper bacon action o yea
Flounders love pepper, they hate cinnamon
So, down in my parts you have to let the flounder eat it for a second before you set the hook. You would probably get more fish this way. This is the saying we have in alabama, "if you feel a vote from a flounder set down your rod, light a cig, give it a few puffs, put it out, then pick up your rod and set the hook."
no, they will swallow it , set the hook right away
Headline: BACON POWERED FLOUNDER JAIL-BREAKS COOLER !
So you have rediscovered what the old timers knew from years back. It used to be that you could get the bucktails already pre rigged with pig skin for fishing flounder. But I think that the fresh bacon must work better than dried up pig skin. Keep making awesome videos! Tight lines!
That flounder went Nemo on you.
He's pulling the bacon out of his mouth he should wait a couple of more seconds after the bite then Hookem. We've been using bacon in the back bays in South Jersey for a couple years now. Not a bad idea. Awesome video.
Hobie needs to send you a new kayak. Are they not a sponsor? With all your mirage and rudder problems it's not making them look good.
theyre not sponsors at all but I agree!
Johnny's Reloading Bench
Johnny's Reloading Bench oiiiioo
@Tyrone Catkiller Kang...Guess you know nothing about fishing...been using bacon for years!! Caught all kinds of fish on BACONNN!! you ought to research how to fish on here nigga! xD
Tyrone Catkiller Kang da fuk wrong wit you wit that bull shit!
Most of those are just little flukes. My dad ALWAYS called them flukes if they were caught in summer. I'm glad to see you are respectful of the fishing rules. Nice fish finally there.
So the bacon saved your bacon! I would contact Wendy's and see if they will sponsor you. All the baconaters you need! Get a custom kayak and stencil bacon boat on the side. Get a sister boat called where's the beef!
lol!
LMFAO that some out of the box thinking right there 🤙
I have never laughed so hard during a video....the fish escaping killed me. Go bacon!
I've never thought about using bacon haha. I wonder if trolling bacon offshore would catch me something
I'd bite it.
South Florida Fishing Channel ud catch me
I've caught striper on raw chicken strips.
I can tell you from having a few fish tanks, I used to feed my Lg. Mouth Bass' "Bologna" , and they used to grab for it, "but spit it fast ". They'd gulp it, and spit it out. If they did swallow it, my tank had a pile of floating white poops and their health continually went down hill. Try cutting the bacon into fish-shaped strips -- it worked in my tank. Cheers
Gulp Alive bacon
LOL! right.
LOL, awesome Sea-Money. We used to catch hundreds of freshwater gar with bacon. Never tried it in salt water but I'm gonna.
What bait were you using? Didn't quite hear it
BACON
I think he is using shrimp. I might be blood worms.
@Glenn Wilkins no you don't
Wow! My mind is blown. Awesome stuff! Guess I know what to replace my gulp with lol.
That shit made me hungry
I'm sold, wife is buying bacon for when I go out this afternoon.
bacon sure aint cheap
Anthony Bomberry £1.30 a pack here cheaper than bait
The thing I like about bacon is that it never jumps out of the cooler and gets away... Plus it tastes like bacon. As my grandmama always said, a pound of bacon is worth more than 3 errr 2 flounders in a cooler.
And it is biodegradable!!
Fun video, hilarious commentary
that was a 17.9 inch flounder im gonna have to call the fish and wildlife commission and report you because this is just simply unacceptable
not sure if youre serious but it was legal and if you have to call DNR then so be it
Sea-Money Fishing he dropped a well placed troll- communist wildlife commission
its a joke hahahahahaha
ok I was scratching my head there I thought maybe you were really offended haha
What I love about this video is that lure companies would be pissed watching this because it's so much cheaper to buy a pak of bacon, keep it in the cooler instead of that expensive ass gulp. They make u think that there's only certain ways to catch fish but if the fish are hungry and haven't seen bacon or chicken or shredded roast beef or jerky then they're gonna bite
u need to close the mouth when measuring.
JDeleoo i did
DAMNNNNNNNN
LMAO!!! Flounder breaking out of the cooler! It was a nice one too!
You killed em with the bacon! Great video!
bleed them out in the cooler they will taste better and they will not get out like they did in the video you already have the knife around you I always bleed them out
flounder is one of the less fishy tasting fish out there. no need to bleed them out.
kix 1981 it's not to make them taste better it's to kill the fish so it doesn't get out of the box like that
Ya but, the longer it stays alive, the fresher the fish. Just needs a tie-down on cooler from now on!
I really like this because he misses the first few and it's funny!
You are a man among men.
I know the bacon works for you but your narration of the event is even better, I have not laughed so hard in a long time
Cut bacon into smaller strips 1/4" wide and 2' long! Been doing this for about 15 years now! Good luck and have fun!
You were freakin' hilarious: "the bite is sizzling" and the whole cold cuts bit... I hope Romo is doing a video about this too
I'm sold on the bacon. Nicely done.
I loved this video. Funny!!!
That was brilliant
A great video my friend!
"The bacon is sizzling out here!!" 😂😂😂
Bacon works awesome for any bottom feeder. Kudos
And it gives the flounder a nice smoky flavor too!
hahaha that was awesome, durn fish jumped out of cooler
I've pulled a lot of flounder out of Narragansett bay since the '60's. We use "pork rind" which is bacon with the skin still attached.
Might want to give it a try, it's bacon, only sturdier.
what you need to use is a thick bacon that is called tosino sold in Spanish markets and is very thick. it won't come off the hook.
That's one crazy wave you took before. Found your tackle box .you could've just walked it .lol .great video.
Tip: To keep from losing fish, place a small treble hook on the jig hook before adding the bait. Result: More fish in the boat!!!
No way a treble!!!!
Every short he caught, probably 5-1, would end up dead....trying to get a treble out of a fluke = no fun for you or the fish.
im sooo doing this when i take my pops fishing in two weeks. he is gonna laugh at first and then his head will explode when i out fish him on bacon. haha
well done best ever fishing thanks for new magic bait(bacon)
Just too funny. Do you do stand up comedy? Bacon flounder "man it's sizzlin out here"
Mind blown! Breakfast gets u lunch 🐷 👍
Beautiful flounders. Those are some fun fish to catch.
Great video thank you for sharing
I really enjoyed watching the whole bacon thing. Lipids rule
BACON!!!! GREAT VIDEO!!!
49.
That is the number of shots we had to do after a dare from a fishing buddy....every time you said the word "bacon" we took a shot LMAO
Berkley is going to be pissed about losing all the flounder business and Oscar Meyers should be your next sponsor!
Best tasting flounder ever.
YOU have now inspired me...I'm gonna try Bacon on Redfish in Jacksonville FL. (after watching this, I went into the bait shop, walked over to the bait freezer, and yelled at the owner, "where's the bacon??") Oh we had a laugh....then I told him I'm trying it on bull Redfish. We'll see, if so. add bacon video's all around. I'm letting everyone know, so you ought to get more views!
really loved this video
Still don't want to believe it! Great video!
