GreT job and best of luck with the new rods. Visually they looked like a nice rod. Good backbone and nice sensitivity at the tip. Not easy to get that all in one rod. Best to you
Nice haul. We got a few 15" black sea bass last year during the red snapper weekend out of Canaveral. I hadn't seen them that big in quite some time. That one at 20" is unheard of here.
Love your vids! Met you at the fishing expo in Rhode Island with Skinner. My buddy Pat and I. I gave Skinner the Mass fisheries measuring sticker. Keep up the good work! Can't wait for May 13th! I'm definitely in!
@@jiggingjerks Drift... 🤣 I hope you intended that pun. Always intend your puns. Speaking of work, LinkedIn recommended you to me a week or 2 ago. Turns out we have a LOT of mutual connections. All from church. Grew up in St. Nick's, flushing and now go to Archangel Michael.
Hey John, long time follower of yourself and Skinner. Just thought I would ask you if there is any possibility of just buying the blank of your new jigging rod. I make rods probably 15 for myself and friends. The problem is difficult to know how a rod performs until you build it. Always looking for a blank that has been created through a lot of trial and error to use in a build. I know that's would kinda be plagiarism of a lot of work by someone e else. Would of course be no competition to you production since would only make one or two rods. Thought I would ask and of course if you feel that would not be possible I understand. Fish Raritan bay and sandy hook area. Ok thanks John and yes I think you will enjoy some time of just recreational fishing vrs the charter business. Ok John hope you have a good fishing season.... Walt
no spiral wrapped guides Halk? at least from what i can see in the video it doesnt look like it..im not sure about that but best of luck with the rod release...looks like a nice rod cosmetically from what i saw..
Great video! May the Fluke be with you!
It's always nice to get out on the water alone & catch fish like that. Nice work John! Best of luck with sales of that new rod. 👍👍
Glad to hear the rods are made in the USA. Good to keep the business at home.

Can’t wait to order one
Looking forward to seeing the specs on the rod!!
Nice day of fishing.
Great vid John good luck with your new rod venture Have a great season pal
Same to you bud
Let me know when you have more info o. The rods
Definitely let me know when so I can get a 1st run.
Nice work, what’s your expectations for the early fluke opening ?
Not great. As you may know, our area was the premier fluke spot in May for many years. Since about 2019 it has absolutely sucked.
Hey John, you're making it hard to save money with announcements like this haha!
Hahaha
Hey which baitcaster do you have on your rod??
Quantum Accurist
Are you as excited for May 1 as I am? I'm hoping to get my boat in the water later today if this rain stops.
Yes! I am working that day, but already advised my boss that I will be logging in a little late if you get my drift

I’ll ask Bruce the rod guy if he can make that an option!
@@jiggingjerks Thanks John, will wait for you to ask him.
