I started fishing a year ago or so, so I'm still trying to learn new techniques and perfect them the best I can. Flipping and pitching seem to be very successful ways of getting into cover with startling the fish. 

 

Has anyone come across a really good video online about this? I've seen some but felt maybe they where lacking some info. But what do I know. I've never done anything like this till today. 

Just use the google machine.Tons of videos

I take it back. Went out to practice today, ended up catching 5 bass and a catfish all pitching. Havnt done much Flipping. Little harder for to me to do that. 

Flipping is really only for very close quarters and heavy cover, so it's pretty specific situations that you'd be flipping. 

Pitching is a longer distant cast but still very accurate and quiet if done correctly. Pitching to targets is one of my favorite ways to fish.

I really enjoyed it. I typically don't catch more than 3 or 4 fish, but I ended up getting 6 total with pitching. Was really enjoyable. 

I need a quarter ounce weight minimum for pitching and 5/16th preferred . Anything lighter doesn't work with my setup .
