What line and how many yards on that Lexa?

I've never been to this lake. Is it for private homeowner's association members only?

Have you ever had a shark or barracudas try n steal your catches from that stringer ?

I’ve been going there for 3 years and have never once paid for parking. Maybe it’s just because I go late in the day? Either way - awesome park and beautiful local spot!

Are you happy where the anchor trolley is mounted? I’m going to be installing one on my Bigwater , and I just want to make sure I mount the pulleys in the right places…I guess I’m wondering about the stern location….I didn’t want to cover the name, but wanted to have it back enough …..thanks for the video!!

was on a 3 hour tour ,a "3 " hour tour ?

Figured I tried asking you a question here; have you ever had to have your Hummingbird serviced? If so, where? Mine isn't turning on, I've troubleshot and nothing. Hummingbirds website shows I have to mail it to them in Alabama and it's going to be $250+

Hey man! we should go kayaking sometime together, went fishing in Newport yesterday right outside the harbor and caught 6 sheepshead all over 15 inches! Let me know if you’re free to go out sometime

50/50 POI is not ideal for trap. 60/40 will do all. The citori CX is s much better buy.

Use one of the new ceramic car waxes and it will do the same thing. And it will last for a LOOOONG time.

Thank you🙏

Greed is what caused this disaster. Bluefin has been off our coast for about five years now, and it’s been all about quick profits-just turn and burn for the money. Let’s be real, the wooden-hulled Jig Strike had no business being out at Cortes in those conditions.

Hit something my ass god damn liarz cant believe they even sent this piece of shit to cortez bank. Fuking death trap. God damn half the mf bow is 20 yards down swell… all those customers who paid a $+500 to lose all there damn gear… sad pathetic and there aint shit to hit out in the middle of the open ocean.

The comical fishing people our rapping the lobster from our ocean go out night in Dana point it's horrible they are traps every where

Were you out there a couple of days ago? Next to the bait boat? I was there in a blue inflatable

Guessing the boat may have hit the remnants of Bishop Rock, which is right below the surface in that area. When I was in my teens way back in the early '60s i was on a 3 day trip out of Pacific Landing and Bishop Rock was about 8 feet tall as I remember. Apparently it has been under water totally for a while.

Cortez Bank is an island that hasn't quiet poked its head up. It's a world famous big wave surf spot that can hold up to 60ft surf and be perfect. It's a trip surfing out there because you're over a 100 miles out to sea and you can't see land at all. It holds an abundance of wildlife and has epic fishing. Lots of sharks as well so it's particularly sketchy when you're in the water.

Was the sinking of the Jig Strike at the Cortez Bank or Tanner Bank I’ve heard two different areas which one is correct ? thank God. Everyone is safe🐟🙏

100 miles west of San Diego. North would be past LA.

Cortez Bank is about 100 miles west of San Diego, at about 265 from the Point.

When did Lake Mission Viejo start stocking tilapia? Must be a new thing, fished and worked there as a kid in the 80's and early 90's never saw a tilapia.

@Sportos: Be sure to pay attention when Cappy gives the safety speech. The life saved might be your own.

Should have recorded in landscape mode for wide screen... vertical video is bad on youtube.

Glad everyone is safe. In cases like this, does the boats insurance cover the lost fishing gear?

Cortes Bank! Glad everyone is safe!

I worked on that boat, for chuck....R.I.P. jigstrike....

How freaking terrifying... Wow

Too bad about the sinking of Jig Strike, and great everyone was saved. My sailboat was docked near the sports fishing area in San Diego several years ago. I saw a lot of happy fishermen there.

Glad everyone is safe, what happened?

100 miles WEST of San Diego, not north

Bunch of studs in that picture. Monsters. I went fishing a couple years ago, day and half trip. Landed one fish they said was about 80 pounds pretty early in the morning. Didn’t look that big to me. I was one and done. My body, especially my arms and shoulders can’t do it anymore. Remember my brother saying using a single speed reel didn’t help. My fish looks about the size of the guy just to the right of the G in landing, maybe smaller. Could not hold it off the deck for a picture. I’m done with tuna fishing. Just can’t do it. Fact is everything feels heavy now. Groceries are heavy. Interesting enough. Boat sank on our trip too. Decent size private sport boat. Too far for us to respond but many others did.

that last dude off the raft better start making some better decisions

Not sure how this happened but two summers ago i was 80 miles off the coast of the OBX in North Carolina and came upon a 55' sport fishing charter boat that was sinking. The boat had hit a shipping container that was lost off a boat during rough seas. They're like landmines and you cant see them as they're floating just below the surface. We got waved down and the six of them got on board my boat along with probably $15-20k worth of fishing gear. Miracle we were just there in the vastness of the ocean. It took maybe 20 minutes total for the boat to disappear completely. Two hour ride back on my 39' center console but everyone made it home. I have video of the boat sinking thats still crazy to watch.

I've done work on some of these older glass over plywood boats. I would not want to be on some of them in heavy seas.

thanks for video and everyone is safe. It would have been worse if the collision with obstacle happened at night.

I was on a friends boat a month ago on our way to channel islands back side and we kept almost nearly hitting gigantic Sunfish..we saw at least 10 that morning..Can a Sunfish sink your boat if you hit one ?

Thank goodness everyone made it home safe. And Cortez Bank is due west of San Diego not north of

100 miles west of SD bay

Cortez bank is a reef located a hundred miles or so off the coast. How many fathums were they before this happened?

Thanks for sharing the footage Anthony. Rest in peace Jig Strike and RIP all fishing gears .

I saw a couple of helium tanks floating in the water last time I was out. Please don't toss them overboard. Great job by all the captains getting all involved home safe.

My name is Patrick, and I was the captain of the Jig Strike. All I can say right now is that while our sinking was tragic, everyone made it off the boat safely and no one was hurt. My thanks to the passengers and crew of the Legend for all the help and support.

Sad news we spent few days and nights on that boat. Have memorable catches on it, Made me think of insurance for our trip.

Always something I worry about happening each time I take a trip. We can never forget how dangerous it can be out there. Stay safe and keep vigilant y’all!

Man I heard boat hit debris’s caused the boat to sink 😢 glad everyone is ok.

Glad everybody is ok

What are the months to catch lobster and what type of bate do you use?
