California Bluefin Tuna Fishing - HI SPEED TROLLING

[@gpm4147]

I've been waiting for you guys to go after blue fin tuna this summer. Great job, got to love those Madmacs

[@DDFishingCo]

Thanks for watching! We kept you guys waiting this year for a bluefin video. Hopefully we can get one more before the end of the year! Madmacs are an incredible lure, its amazing how well they work.

Excellent work. No drama, businesslike landing. Great info.

[@DDFishingCo]

Thank you very much! Calm cool and collected gets the fish in the boat 🎣

This year has definitely been slower and different than the last couple years. Great video and always a good feeling to get a new guy his first BFT. It ain’t over yet we got a month to go.

[@DDFishingCo]

It definitely was different than last year, makes for a great learning experience. We are totally with you, its not over until its over. We got em into the end of November of 2022. Thanks for watching our video! 🎣

Thanks Oleg!

[@JeffHackensen]

Good work! Where did you launch from

[@NaiSaetern-tp6fi]

I would love to join you guys for an experience. How much do you guys charge? Keep up the good works. Love the videos.

[@DDFishingCo]

Thanks!! We do not offer a charter at this time, however we are looking into that for next year. If you are looking for a charter, I would reach out to Northbay Fish Charters in Bodega Bay.

nice blue!! I think treble hooks are not great for big tuna dosnt set great and pulls easy!! We get 150-180 ahi here in Hawaii and can crank them in on 130 class reels without issue on double rigged 9/0-10/0 hooks!!! Do you ever troll with skirted lures? The lures we use in Hawaii loooks like crush over there!! check out the ones I use, I show maker on my videos. KC LURES, miracle lures, Tsutomu , j lures just a few locally made!!!

[@DDFishingCo]

That’s interesting info, thanks for sharing man! We might have to give it a try to experiment with it. We haven’t tried skirted lures for bluefin, we have for albacore. We will check out your videos! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@beardedtraveleradam]

@ definitely worth a try 🤙🏽

[@DDFishingCo]

Will give it a shot!!

[@1hotahi964]

Gotta ask, why are you using the cheap Okuma SLX reels? On that 50 I can see you clearly have that drag at sunset (33lbs) max. I did use the PCH rods, XH,XXH and XXXH for a couple years. Great price point on the rods no doubt. But after hooking bigger fish there is no comparison to quality (UC, Calstar, Seeker) rail rods.

[@DDFishingCo]

Great question! We have caught 20+ bluefin on these reels with a few over 200lbs. We have had zero issues with these reels so far. If we were targeting fish 250+ lb fish each time, we would upgrade to a reel with higher quality drag system. I would say most of the fish we catch up here are 100-200lbs. With the size line we are using, I don't want to push the drag anymore than it already is.

[@Lamin4k]

Was this recent? Finally got myself the same okuma BFT setup after watching your vids, hoping to send it soon

[@DDFishingCo]

It was the last week of October so recently. That’s awesome you got an Bluefin setup, hopefully you get to stick one!! 🎣

[@fvRodRunner]

You guys running 15° or 30° rod holders at the back corners?

[@DDFishingCo]

30 degree

[@BmosOutdoor]

Bro! Wassup with the fall striper run vid??

[@DDFishingCo]

Whatss up man! My bass boat has been down, just got it going this weekend!

[@BmosOutdoor]

@ that’s wassup man! Hope it turned out good

[@DDFishingCo]

Thanks! You should see us back out there at some point. With all this rain it might be awhile before we hit the stripers again, but maybe the spring time.

[@reelin_it_with_jake]
