In this episode of Field Trips: West Coast, I've made it north to Central California to meet up with John Kenny in Morro Bay, CA. Our target: my first lingcod from the kayak. Watch as I knock off a few bonus species on my way to my first ling. The biggest one gets a little payback, too...
Watch until the end for a preview at episode 6!
Comment below and tell me if you've fished in Cali or ask me any questions you guys have! I reply to every one.

Well filmed and edited kayak fishing videos from an experienced angler that seems to love fishing .... this is the best you could ask for. Thanks for your efforts in bringing these to us.

@YakFishField 4 года назад

Thanks so much Craig

@bullfrogger1208 5 лет назад

I saw a Great White eat a seal 10 feet from the boat north of where you are above santa Cruz . Head on a swivel won't help . I will come from straight underneath with no warning . But all hell will break loose once it does . Then 2 bites later and the gulls come in for the scraps . Minute later , no sign anything ever happened . Just awesome .

@YakFishField 5 лет назад

Yeahhhh, hopefully I never experience that first-hand, haha

@pffear 4 года назад

Back in the 50's and 60's my Dad would catch 20 to 30 lbs Lingcod off the rocks just north of San Francisco..... I've taken several in the 20 lbs range, spearfishing off Cannery Roe in Monterey.

@brianriley9426 4 года назад

At 11:53 looks like you had a school of tuna breaching behind you. Cool addition!

@YakFishField 4 года назад

That was a few sea lions

@daviddoerr749 4 года назад

Sand dabs/little flounder are like lingcod candy. Keep them live and drop em down!

@YakFishField 4 года назад

So I’ve been told. Now I know for next time!

@calkidsbradley40 6 лет назад

Loved this video. There was a Morro Captain who in the 90`s ran light tackle / artificial bait only charters out of San Simeon. Great area to fish , no matter what type of craft you are in. Thanks for sharing & bringing me back.

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

It’s a killer area! I will definitely be back.

@danieldimas6160 5 лет назад

Catches a sand dab and proceeds to throw back the best bait for lings. Lol...smh

@TheActiontkr 6 лет назад

I used to Scuba dive Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz CA, there are GW there. Morro Bay is chalk full of them, you were nothing but a lucky buzz bait. Scary dude!

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

+TheActiontkr i know it man, that's why I kept talking about it. Don't think I was lucky though... pretty sure I have a better shot of getting struck by lightning than attacked by a white shark. Still nerveracking though

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

+chris reumont hahaha I owed him one

@4stringmanagmaildcom 2 года назад

We had Ling Cod fish and chips tonight. Caught last May and vacuum bagged. Our season in WA is only 6 weeks and starts May 1st. Live Sand Dabs make fantastic bait for Lings. I would bonk fish ASAP and bleed all fish as soon as possible. It's better for them and the quality of the meat.

@YakFishField 2 года назад

Thanks for the tips Mike

@FTW1374 6 лет назад

Another great video Robert, fishing Morro Bay was waaay cool but the Lingcod slap to the face 👋🏻 was a true highlight. 😂😂😂JK, Bro love that you show all of the less than perfect stuff that goes with fishing as well. Keeping it real is the really interesting stuff.

@mrbabysitter11 5 лет назад

In WA we use swimbaits that are like 10inchs long, lingcod aren’t a smell feeder really only sight. Stops a lot of the smaller rock fish from hitting it. And we do big jigging motions

@YakFishField 5 лет назад

Good info!

@pinstash 5 лет назад

Recently came across your channel and love your videos, keep living the dream for the rest of us who can't

@eriks9576 6 лет назад

You need to bring a descender device when rockfishing. It is a aw here in Oregon to have one on board if fishing for rock cod. It is about a 2 dollar inverted hook that goes on a big weight and you just put it on a old rod and you drop the fish to the depths and it releases pressure. Putting holes in the fishes air bladder most likely just kills them....

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

+erik s good information Erik, thanks. I wasn't rockfishing intentionally, and that's not a law in California, but I'm all about treating the fish as well as possible. I'll remember that for next time.

@alexianorman-alarie3228 6 лет назад

I am from the west cost of B.C and can't wait for Ling cod season!

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

They're a ton of fun and so tasty!

@gonzales929 6 лет назад

I love Morro bay. And your videos are awesome bro keep them up.

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

+JohnnyTheWellnessCoach I love it now too! Really cool place to explore... the fish were just a bonus. Thanks man!

@canidsong 5 лет назад

I recently found out (not living in alaska for many years) that yup there firstly all commercial boats and in secondly in 2021 *all* boats being fished from period will be required to have deepwater release devices for rockfish. They are really simple, easy to make yourself and probably save a lot of fish.

@YakFishField 5 лет назад

Gotta invest in one

@froggleggers1805 6 лет назад

That Vermilion Rockfish was at least 15-20 years old, I used to work for NMFS as an observer on the west coast and up in Alaska. They have a very slow growth rate.

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

+froggleggers wow man that's really interesting, I never would've guessed that. She did not go to waste, we turned her into ceviche in tomorrow's VLOG episode

@connorbyrne7568 6 лет назад

That fish slapped you pretty hard 😂

@lexaket 6 лет назад

Cool. Always on the top. I love your videos man.

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

+lexaket thanks bro!

@MrGG-rz3he 5 лет назад

I live in Morro Bay. Worked for Virg's sportfishing for years. Love it out here but it's definitely falling off even with conservation efforts. It's Gopher city in most spots. Fish 5 was what we call a blue bass. Idk if you got a "Johnny Bass" but they have a good fight for their size. Fish 6 was definitely a Sand dab. A good Halibut spot is the water inlet next to the rock for PG&E. Deeper waters will be more rock halibut and they love biting on chrome. Excellent call on the squid. Squid on purples or tigers have good results. Glad to see you had a good time. Really like the channel!

@bassslayer761 6 лет назад

Dang nice vid once again!!!!!! I'm bchung on fishbrain btw I stayed up all night watching your amazing vids favorite fishing YT now!

@Ken-wv2wg 6 лет назад

Another awesome video. Amazing what you do from those kayaks. FYI a couple years ago the large Yellow fin tuna were in range right outside Dana Point. (Strong El Niño) I hope those conditions happen again and you're in the area.

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

+Ken Roesner oh man that would be awesome. I've caught yellowfin from the kayaks in my Kayak Fishing Panama series

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

+Lance Lewandowski haha yeah he made me pay for it

@doctoredable 6 лет назад

You mentioned eating the lingcod as ceviche. Be sure to wait longer than usual to allow the lime juice to kill any parasites. Unfortunately lingcod often have worms in the fillets.

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

You're the 2nd person to tell me that. We did the ceviche with the rockfish and fish and chips with the lingcod. That VLOG episode is up on my channel, too.

@kysfagg3807 6 лет назад

@willwailes9298 6 лет назад

Spooner's Cove is cool. I don't have a kayak though, so it's not AS cool. There's some huge perch though. I'm excited. Should be headed that way next week. Gonna sift through the kelp to see if there's calicos close to shore.

@YakFishField 6 лет назад

It’s such a cool area!
