Fish live in the shade and around structure so they can ambush prey and also hide from other predators.  Skipping lures under docks, mangroves or any type of structure and can be very effective and every good fisherman should be well practiced at this and be able to do it.  There are some things that will make anyone better at it immediately.  Your choice of bait, rod, reel, line, leader will make as much difference as a ton of practice but the practice is equally important. We go over every part of a good skipping setup and then talk about where and how to practice this technique before getting out on the water. Big fish live in hard to fish areas.  Learn how to skip a lure waaaaaaaaayyyy back in the bushes.
