EPIC Surf Fishing in SUPER CLEAR WATER 

That was as much action as anyone can expect. Great day of fishing. Excellent video.

Really brought back memories. I miss living so close to the surf! Thanks so much...

Great video ! I remember surf fishing in San Diego years ago. We were using fresh muscle from a local jetty as bait. After catching several sand sharks, it was perch heaven there after. I'm inspired to try this again ! 😀

Keep up the great content!!! I checked the description in the video and didn't see what kind of hook and size you used also what kind of leader. Thank you for your content. I've never gone fishing for surf perch and hope to try for father's day or my birthday in a couple weeks. Thank you Adam!!! Amazing content!!!!

Fantastic job looking into the lens!!! Looking like a cinematic professional!!

This is the most underrated fishing channel.

I know you list the gear used...but for us novices...can you please show how you rig bait...hook size...set up...and general area you fish...thanks...nice video

I really enjoy your videos. Informative, you catch fish, and you seem like a nice guy. Keep em coming!

It's the best fishing channel!!

Wow! What a great spot!

Those Daiwa BG reels are the best bang for the buck.

Dude I am shock great fishing!

Wow tons of action 😯

Ask your dad about the Calif striped bass stamp which we older anglers had to purchase every year. The money was misused for duck hunting and DFG was ordered to raise striped bass as part of a refund policy to those buying striped bass stamps. These bass were breed with White bass to grow faster producing a hybrid strain. These hybrid strain have been cross breeding ever since replacing much of the original strain brought to CA in 1879. The hybrid strain do not grow as long but grow extremely round with the white bass genetics. Some of the hybrids look like Arkansas river striped bass exceptionally fat for their length. Monster Calif aqueduct stripers are typically hybrids. California considers all three variety as potential threats these days and wants measures approved to control populations where they can be a nuisance species . DFG in its infinite wisdom took hundreds of thousands of hybrids and released them in southern Calif lakes, the Calif aqueduct, obscure sloughs and locations to dispose of them post a fake study that blamed striped bass as causing the decline of anadromous species notably king salmon. Water stripped from the CA delta caused the problems plus water diversion funneling salmon smolts into tight locations changed natural Delta escapement rates for affected anadromous species . I worked for the DFG as a seasonal aide in the 1980's and also helped raise and release hybrid striped bass. When you get a true full line striper with full black lines, purple and dark blue body colors you have the original strain. The broken line lighter colored variety found heavily in the Salinas and Pajaro rivers are mostly hydrids. Does location of spawning detrmine whos who? t oa degree yes. The hybrids have expanded south and typically a species multiplying and expanding is numbers can be a good thing but some question what it might do to species that have not seen these bass. Example will a Santa Barbara Calico bass see a striped bass as a predator or just ignore it as a non traditional predator thus make that calico bass in danger of easy predation. #3 Calif State AB measures have been defeated for CA anglers but the state has divided policies for the same species. Nor-cal and Central anglers pay for the right to catch two 18 inch specimens per day and Southern Calif large mouth bass anglers who do not like them eating their large mouth bass consider them a pest and kill them like unwanted carp which is frustrating to Northen and Central Ca anglers. Landlocked specimens have had the time to grow huge in obscure locations and offer trophy hunters an opportunity if you do the research . The full story and battle regarding water rights and anglers is a long novel to read but this is the condensed version.

Boom! You make it look so easy. Definitely hard locating fish in the surf. I don't know if it's my setup or I'm just missing something. I tried the hi low right, the fish finder rig and casting hard baits, no luck. Thanks for the upload.

Those fish seem to be transitioning into another species. We have stripers stocked in lakes on the TN River system. These are fish from the Atlantic that have been introduced. They have almost uniformly unbroken lines. Cool vid.

Nice to have the beach to yourself!

Good catch👱so many fish😁

If you want to catch surf perch use 18-24" leader with swivel and 1oz egg sinker. Put on a motor oil color curly tail crappy jig and #6 hook. Through out as far as you can and reel in fast, they like it fast. Look for spots where waves are not breaking as it's deeper and fish hang out there. One weekend I and kids caught 72. Best tasting fish in the ocean!

Really cool video bud 💪

It's funny how when you're trying to go for surf perch to catch stripers then when you target stripers you catch surf perch

Those are Whipers. Nice catches bro!!!

The water is gorgeous past Pacifica right now. I was at Montara Beach on Wednesday and the water was SUPER clear. I could see dungeness crab huddled in the breakers 20 feet away, and spotted and helped out a stranded mola mola caught on a low tide sand bar. Got a couple of nice keeper dungies on the crab snare back-to-back. Now if only I could catch a fish...

Digging the slo-mo. Those were beautiful specimens. I watched this on my phone so I couldn’t tell if you were using circle hooks or not. It looked like at least one of those fish was hooked before you got back to your rod.

Your channel is really cool

Nothing beats a good day fishing.

Man oh man . .love all the comments people put here. Anyways...you are doing an awesome job. Keep fishing and we'll keep watching! Oh yeah!!

Stripers are excellent eating. I caught 3 nice ones from the bank this spring.

Fishing is fun I wish I have a opportunity learning & fishing with u love your channel .

Strippers that have broken lines are hybrid, on the east coast we call them brody's bass in the state of Delaware.

If I could have one day out of the year as good as your normal day out I'd be happy

Nice catches and I hope they tasted delicious 😀

You should have way more views! You're killing it. I'd take your stiper problems!

I was out on the 4th and state beach was closed had to go to half-moon bay to many surfers and people. where do you find your fishing beach?

Great Video can you please show setups more still trying to learn how to fish. Thank you

Dude you were on fire! What size hooks were you using?

Nice video bro 👍🏼 exactly wat Martin said, it’s funny how you, Jun, and Edward fishing for perch but keep hooking on stripers🤔🤦🏼‍♂️ 🤪

Never been saltwater fishing, (I live in AZ), but this looks REALLY fun! What is a typical bait you guys use? Might have to roadtrip to Cali.

Im gonna hit the water soon because of you. Great day fishing

Would really appreciate it if you would cover your terminal tackle & bait/lure choice - looks like bait. I was using sand crabs medium to small size filling up two size 6 bait hooks. Caught 3 red tails 2 of which were substantial. Had many more bites. Any input on hk size & positioning when hooking up bait?

Great video! Did they hit on a high to low tide?

Hey, try fishing sand crabs. Put a offset hook straight up thru the knuckle of the digger and straight up thru back. And try this winter for barred perch. Your living the dream

You ever come up into southern oregon? gold beach and cape blanco have huge hits! would love to fish with ya bro!

That was great day. If that was recorded today, you are lucky w/that blue sky. In SoCal, it is in the 60s w/thick low clouds. Don't you ever hook-up on Leopard Sharks and Smoothhounds?

Hey Adam. Are you usually able to catch red tails at the beaches around HMB and SF? I'm usually only able to get them when I go up towards Stinson Beach or Bodega Bay.

ALWAYS FISH THE RIP! sand crabs and sand worms, doesn't get any better!

I'm going out tomorrow morning for perch and probably hook only striper....I wish. Great vid Adam!

Actually I'm heading out tomorrow, I want to catch myself some red tails. Here in southern oregon we dont get any stripers, but they do north a little. Well that was. Good day of fishing . Great video thanks

Nice vid pal. What type hooks are you using?

I am impressed with your handling of the Striped Bass. You use very mild hooks to not damage the Stripers. From New Jersey.

That was crazy. What kind of tide?

Surf perch have gone missing this year!!!

Awesome AWESOME DAY!! Question.. why does no 1 like eating smelt?

Where do you post your rig set up with rod description, reel and line/leader?

Those pesky stripers are a terrible problem to have Hahahhaa great job as always brother keep it up

🔥

I've yet to get on a striper and all I catch is surf perch... maybe the trick is to target surf perch 😂

Baja coast has the best surf perch fishing. If you ever want to head down let me know.

When you put your rod in the holder..do you loosen your drag to let the fish take bait away ..or do you keep your regular tension on your drag ?

Fishing low tide looks like about 9 am before the wind picked up

If i want to catch a striped bass on the beach what part of the bay you recommend

Here in SoCal, we would die for the Stripers mostly Barred perch. Each one is about 2 fish tacos. Hard to filet if you don’t know how. Sand crabs, within 15 feet of the beach is my best way.

Do you do catch clean and cooks? Love new ideas for eating fish. Just started incorporating fish into my diet.

Can't find that HUGE STRIPER video u had where it bent ur hooks. Can u tell me that lure u were using..minnow something or other...thanks

What size reel are you using. What size would you recommend if not light tackle. Also is that a medium heavy or heavy rod. Thinking of doing some surf fishing.

what size hook are you using?

Could you do a video where you show how to fillet the different types of fish you catch? I’ve seen you catch halibut, striped bass, perch, and others. It would be nice if you showed the best way to fillet each type of fish. Thanks!

We’re you using soft shell or hard shell sandcrabs?

Hi Adam, very good day of fishing congratulations and very good videos. What is the name of the beach where you fish? Thank you

What type of hook do you use?

wow!! i went fishing today looking striped bass and ended up catching striped perch =(

Great videos bro just started following what area are you from and what areas do you fish? Thanks in advance

Just using hooks and Sand crabs? Are hard shell sand crabs okay to use?

Hey would you consider adding a little info about the set-up your using? like" today we're going with Carolina rig 1-1/2oz sliding egg sinker to a 3ft #10 mono leader to a #4 bait-holder hook with a Berkeley gulp sandworm" for example 🤔 ATB Spam

I wish you would show your setup and lure/bait

You should show us what rig you're using, size hook, skier , leader , bait. Would be helpful.

What kind of swivel are you using to rig your pyramid sinker?

Never fish ocean b4. Do you mind telling where this at. What beach you fishing at. Thx

Did you throw a lure at all to try and target bigger striper?

hey diehard! you said you would show us how you rigged your line?!?!

So is it a bad sign if the beach has alot of stones during low tide? I've been trying to find new places in north county San Diego, mainly South Carlsbad. I haven't found ANY sand crabs and there are so many rocks. I've noticed that your beaches are so clean of rocks and big stones. Was just wondering if that has anything to do with a factor in surf fishing. Thanks.

Question for you, do you bleed out the perch before bagging like most other fish? Haven't seen anyone do it but that doesn't necessarily mean anything

I'm looking to buy fishing gear - rod/s, reel/s, tackle - maybe even some clothing. I'm a fan of this channel and want to support it, does he provide links to buy any of his surf fishing gear he uses? I searched around, couldn't find them. - A channel fan
