How I Lost $2000 in 1 Minute 

That's it, Adam!! You've let me down for the last time! I am NOT going to un-sub to ur channel, I will NOT stop sharing ur channel with friends and I will NOT stop looking forward to your next video!!! I'm NOT out!! 👍😎

It’s all my fault, I jinxed Adam. 😅 so before the biggest fish turned in, I got too excited that I took a picture of Adam holding the $3,000 Check and Congratulated him because I’m 100% sure he’ll take the win. Never thought that there’s still 42” striped bass swimming around in the coast. 37.5” is tough to beat. Sorry Adam 😞

Adam, I’ve always heard one should not crank on a spinning reel while a fish is taking out line. Supposedly it twists the line. Thanks for the nice two striper video!

Congratulations on the big fish. A nice $ fish. It was nice to have met you and Chris this past weekend. I was happy that you saw your rod sleeves in action. Keep the great videos coming.

Congrats on 2nd! That was a nice striper! Thanks for sharing. I’ve yet to catch a striper in the surf.

Hi Great video. Just wondering what leader do you attach to the braided line? 30# mono? Thanks!

Definitely helpful! Good gear and spending the time it takes to catch them! That's what it takes to get it done!

Nice work Adam like usual, YOUR FISH ON BRO and I don’t tell that to many keep slaying bro

Amazing catch! I mean.. $1000.. $3000... It's only money, right? lol.. but bringing in a chonker like that.. epic! I have been looking for a new setup that is a little lighter than my old Uglystik.. Nabbed the Captain and already in love.. What pole are you using with that? Thanks for the vid...!

You’re a slayer Adam!! Great work.

Nice fish. Congrats on the $1000. Next year is your year!!

I was so excited when they reported you while I was watching Jun's video! 2nd place isn't too bad though. That winner was a rare beast.

Weeeelllllllllllll, the little guy at the end was pooooor compensation for your 2nd place entry….😉 to hear that reel scream!!!😮 we both are feeling the pain!😉🤣

Good job Adam nice fish 🐟 came close.

What colors of braid do you prefer on sunny days and on overcast days?

Congratulations Adam 👍

You have to come to MA to catch some beast of a striped bass 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Can you provide a link to join the surf fishing contest (next year)?

my calissa came with a little brass spoon attached to the tail end. do you take it off?

Good job bro! I know the feeling, my birthday was in January and it was freezing in a hail storm, and I didn’t bring my GoPro because I didn’t think I was gonna catch any fish, but I caught my first steelhead by myself and my phone barely worked for a pic 😅😂🐟😭

Pacifica south of the pier. Been there a few times. I know that pipe well.

What lure is that bro!

Monster size catch Adam! Great job! But I’m sure the dude SAND BAG you my friend. He Kept you off the surf from fishing til the deadline. GL next tournament

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL STRETCH OF BEACH...WHERE IS THIS? IT'S BEAUTIFUL.. AND CONGRATS ON YOUR GREAT CATCHES..I KNOW IT WAS A BIT TOUGH BUT WHEN YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING YOU LOVE..IT'S PART OF THE JOY OF BEING OUT THERE.

Hello Adam, what rod is that?

On the East Coast, I like to get in between the first and second breaker wearing waders, and try to cast as far out as possible. That is in the Chesapeake and along the Atlantic and Gulf Coast of Florida, I generally have good luck. Don’t know if West Coast strippers like the same thing, but they seem to like cold water wherever I see them. I catch freshwater stripper at Jordan Dam in the tail race 20lb+ just south of Raleigh, NC. They like a green 2” stinger grub tipped with cooked shrimp. I think the shrimp is the smell they want.

Nice Catches!! Your first fish was about without stripes, pretty much white. Why do you wind/crank the reel when the drag is screaming; you're twisting your line? You're not gaining any ground/line; or are you? When the drag stops, that's when I usually crank. Maybe I'm doing something rally wrong. You catch lots of fish; tough to find a fault! Stripers always low light!!

Thanks Adam!

enojying the format.

Awesome catch Adam 👏👏👏

I love that they opened up that beach agin,I heard I was closed for a long time.

the little sale boat things that were washed up are called: portigee man o war

What Rod or you using?

Hey Adam I have watch your videos since I was a little kid. I’m struggling at fishing and finding good spots to fish at surf casting I was wondering if I could just have one fishing spot in Santa Cruz I appreciate it. Thank you.

What do you do for a living?

You didn’t let us down..you did well..that was a big fish otherwise!🤘🏻

when you upgrade your hooks what do you trade with?

Awesome striper I haven't seen a big striper in years.

Hey can you send me a link or name of your catch bag behind you -

was that all 40lb braid or did you have backing?

OMG Adam....waders! 😇

where is this derby held?

Sailors of the Wind is the name of those jellyfish

Congrats

Is Stripped Bass not a good fish to eat? It seems like all that's caught are released, why?

I’m curious as to why you release those non native salmon killing stripers?

Was this in Pacifica?

It looks like a lucky craft.

your biggest fail was you had hours to try for a bigger one and you quit fishing

What beach is this? I'm new to the ocean fishing. An need to rip some lips hoping to catch a stripper from surf. All tips help. Have a blessed day man tight lines.

Not Portuguese manowar?

Those aren't actually jellyfish. They're blue velella and they're harmless. Like me, they travel with the wind, and are sometimes blown in the wrong direction. It's part of a natural cycle. They just feel gross when they get stuck in your Crocs. 😂

I'm sure you know this because you fish so much but if you reel while the drag is spinning, all you are effectively doing is twisting up your line on a spinning reel.

Well you didn’t walk away Empty Handed!👍

A buddy of mine who worked as a harbor patrolman around the SF Bay Area said that right off candlestick park is a great spot for stripers.

I trade in the market. I lost 125K in 3 weeks. I think I got ya beat

It doesn't count anyway, because you aren't wearing shorts! Hahaha, JK man. Oh well, your 2nd place streak is alive! (how many 2nd places have you gotten?

I’m jealous

way 2 much talking

Wow that was a horrible release. Be better

Baby compared to actually seeing strippers hitting on east coast shores.

Why do you drag the fish across the sand like that? In the future you should show the fish more respect. You wouldn’t last long on the east coast treating stripers like that!!

not excited about the sponsor sorry to say knowing the quality of the bass stuff they have from other people i know that have fished them i fish shimano diawa sorry to sound this way i work for what i have and would never pay to fish that equipment with the limited days off i get i want to use quality maybe the ocean stuff is better who knows
