That's a little baby BFT. If it was a little bigger, you would have been in deep trouble. Nice fish.

That was epic, don't know how a blue Fin Tuna feels on the end of a line but I'm sure it's incredible. Good ups from the Midwest. Zoo siab nawb!

Funny reading comments from guys who know nothing about the gear your using to catch these fish. Twinpower and Ocea Jigger were made for these types of fights. In fact the rest of the world uses spinning gear for big fish. I fished in japan for 3 years using spinning gear. Caught everything from Bluefin to dogtooth tuna. To GT. Awesome video.

Indeed. The twin power is one of the best Shimano reels I've ever had the pleasure of using, and I own a Stella. It's for sure my next purchase.

Plenty of surf trips, inshore plugging every other day for the past 2 years and it still feels brand new!

nice, i cant even land a yellowtail with 20 lbs leader

It’s probably your knot. I’m using a uni knot, wrap the hook eye 2 times, 5 times on the uni. Alberto knot 5 five time going up and five going back, finish the knot with 4 clinch knot around the braid. Knot holds very strong, better than the San Diego knot. I’ve landed 60 lb tuna with 20lb leader with this knot.

Questions: 1. What size is your boat and engine HP? 2. How many gallons of fuel used to get to catalina island? I do have a sea ray 18' with 100HP Honda Outboard, but too scared to leave Orange county to Catalina.. Thank you sir
@CatchEmAllChai2 жыл бұрын
Mako ProSkiff 17. Mercury 75hp. Gets about 5-6mpg @ cruising speed 17-22mph. A trip to Catalina and back ~60miles takes 12 gallons. You have to get there early and return back to Long Beach before the winds pick up.

This is not ultra light combo, it is more like medium, anyway i can see in some point on the clip his legs are shaking, guessing he haven't slept 2-3 nights after this catch!

Very Smooth drag. In the video, you’ll see me test the drag, pull some line out while the rod is under tension. Line come out effortlessly if fish pulls just the slightest drag.
