This Rig Outfished Everything- Surf Fishing Hack

Do fishing floats on a high-low rig actually work… or are they just another tackle gimmick? In this video, I put the float vs no float debate to the test while surf fishing using the same high-low rig setup — same bait, same conditions, same beach — to see which rig actually catches more fish. A lot of anglers add small floats to their rigs thinking it lifts the bait, makes it more visible, and increases bites. But does it really make a difference underwater? Or is it just extra hardware that doesn’t help? If you’re new to surf fishing or looking to improve your high-low rig setup, this test will help you decide whether adding floats is worth it — or if you’re better off keeping your rig simple. Whether you’re targeting whiting, pompano, drum, or other surf species, understanding how your rig performs underwater can make a huge difference in your success. 00:00-1:12 intro 1:12-3:43 set up 3:43-5:23 first fish 5:23-6:40 second fish 6:40-8:30 shark 8:30-10:37 double 10:37-14:24 huge bite 14:24-16:27 largest whiting in the world! 16:27-18:40 palmetto 18:40-22:00 sunset 22:00-24:30 conclusion 24:30-28:16 prep fish 28:16-29:44 make sushi 29:44-34:17 EAT Support our Channel! 11' Surf Commander Travel Rod: https://www.heyskipperfishing.com/11-foot-landing/ My Fishing Store: Visit our website: https://www.heyskipperfishing.com/ Hey Skipper Fishing Rods: https://www.heyskipperfishing.com/travel-rod-landing/ Fishing Accessories: https://www.heyskipperfishing.com/fishing-accessories/ Bundled Fishing Kits: https://www.heyskipperfishing.com/bundles/ Pre-Tied Fishing Rigs! https://www.heyskipperfishing.com/fishing-rigs/ Questions for me?
