Blue Fin Tuna Popper Fishing off San Diego

Blue Fin Tuna Popper Fishing off San Diego

[@doctoredable]

Thanks for posting this video. Looks like a great boat design to fish from when casting poppers. When we occasionally get schools of Bluefin tuna offshore from San Francisco they are extremely boat shy. If you see a boil and get closer than 100 yards they sound and are gone. I wonder why they behave so differently up here.

Great fishing and video production. Instantly recognized the Davis Boats Bahia 25, I have a Davis myself.

looks like a japanese style fishing vessel, in the sense the stern is so narrow? beautiful boat.

Hi Geoff, Great video! How's 2018 looking so far for Tuna surface action? I am coming back to San Diego next month after being overseas for 14 months and doing a lot of popper fishing for Dog Tooth and GTs. Hoping to get some surface action on the BF and YF Tuna!

Nice job!

Pretty incredible boil. Care to make any speculation for 2019 bite.

[@meloniehadrian5867]

[@philippselectri]

[@MrErk714]

do you use trebles or single hooks on the lures?

[@Malthaner1]

[@wittelarry1]

[@nathanield.4527]

How far out from San Diego were you?

[@Brandon_Florida]

[@geoffheldoorn9060]

In a slip in Mission Bay

[@jetbaroudi677]

Was the a tranx and a penn spinfisher?

[@geoffheldoorn9060]

Penn Spinfisher 7500 with a Shimano Terez 7'8" heavey spinning rod

[@TheMohammad916]

Hi Geoff, How do you like that 7'8 terez heavy for popping? Have any problems taking big fish on it? I dont know if i should get that or the XH version. Best, Mo

[@geoffheldoorn9060]

The 7'8" was awesome for casting poppers and pulling on big fish. I don't think any of them fought more than 30 min total

[@yo2stix]

Boil on the bow! Lol.

[@therandomyoutuber5101]

i would harpoon those tuna. theres a fricking monster heard alongside the boat.

[@anthonynoy9383]

You said prosecutor fought that fish for 20 hrs!

[@MrErk714]

how much are charters ?

[@HoxFeesh]

Foamers right at the boat. Wow...priceless. Losing your favorite lures ...painful regardless of end of day fish count.

[@horton368]

Are you using single hooks...I have better luck with tuna on single hooks rather than trebles...

[@smoke1poke]

who do i give my money to?

[@geoffheldoorn9060]

Ha ha, yes Pat is an awesome skipper. He puts us on the fish every time!
