Hell yeah man!! Nice day fun day!

[@newenglandoutdoorlore]

Nice fall run stripers! Good video!

[@mikestacklebox]

@@newenglandoutdoorlore thank you I appreciate it

[@theoldsurffisher1943]

Nice catches of big fish; Mike and friends! The birds were sure circling for a while.

[@mikestacklebox]

@@theoldsurffisher1943 yes they were and the fish were after the huge smelt that time.

Hey Mike. Have you ever used the Duo Tideminnow 90? It is 1/2 oz and has a weight transfer so it would likely cast really far for its size. I feel like it would be better than a 110 for perch and could still entice a striper. The only downside I see is 2 month shipping from Japan 😅. I would appreciate your thoughts. 👍🐟

[@mikestacklebox]

@@Ducky2o I have never used anything that small in the surf for stripers or perch. Over the years the 110mm is the lightest we usually use. Possibly in a setting like SoCal waters maybe but with our swells like Nor cal 115mm-160mm (stripers) is the sweet spot I’m terms of profile.

[@diyanlisa]

Mike did you make any change with the reel foot. To your rod? Phenix trifecta Won’t go in all the way with vr75. Just curious how you do it yours! Thanks Mike

[@mikestacklebox]

@@diyanlisa on this particular session is my early model vr50. I primarily use my vr75 with my cicada. Unfortunately the newer 50/75 have the square reel foot.

[@dannymorn5448]

How heavy are those lures

[@fernandovenegas5147]

Bueno muchos and good morning ☀️

[@mikestacklebox]

@@fernandovenegas5147 Hell yeah good mornin thanks for tuning in.

[@Mrkelpme]

I can’t even catch one

[@mikestacklebox]

@@Mrkelpme definitely small steps like possibly a bait and wait setup along with soft shelled sand crabs always gets em.

[@Mrkelpme]

@@mikestacklebox thanks for the advice !

[@cobramanphil]

That's actually funny. I caught a 27" last Sunday and up until she became visible near shore I was sure to think it was a halibut. The main reason was the hookset was at the nose and the line had wrapped around the tail couple of times..lol.

[@mikestacklebox]

@@cobramanphil I was a little puzzled 🤔 like why is there head shakes with dead weight?

[@duce408]

Awesome vid as always, Mike! Pretty new to surf fishing and was curious about the landing technique you were talking Mike through when using terms like “loosening up” “feeding him” “tight on the tip” etc. Care to elaborate more?

[@mikestacklebox]

@@duce408 absolutely when the shakers if not small fish hit the shoreline they will gator roll and wrap the tip in the process breaking everything. I’ve unfortunately seen it happen with another angler losing the fish, breaking the rod, also losing the lure. Having enough slack will give you enough leeway just in case they do make another run.

[@duce408]

@@mikestacklebox Gotcha! Appreciate the insight. BTW, that sweep is too smooth! Hope to land fish as clean as you some day 🙌🏽

[@mikestacklebox]

@@duce408 brotha all practice to be honest they are still around until the end of October if not all year long. I wish you good luck 🍀

[@jacklieu28]

Thank you for my Monday getaway. :)

[@mikestacklebox]

@@jacklieu28 absolutely.. call In sick tomorrow to fish hahaha

[@josephmarciano4761]

Hi Mike, Missed you! What county are you working?

[@mikestacklebox]

@@josephmarciano4761 this particular one in Monterey county.

[@FishNTrips1]

Those stripers fight hard. Liked and subbed from a fellow angler. Stay safe and connected bro!

[@mikestacklebox]

@@FishNTrips1 awesome broham thank you for tuning in.

[@kanakoa74]

Are the stripers making their way to SF Bay and then into the delta now?

[@mikestacklebox]

@@kanakoa74 yeah around this time is yes. But the stragglers will remain. I’ve caught stripers in October as well.

[@lancecuarisma7399]

Aloha Bruddah Mike! Howzit!? What Size Braid & Leader Line do You Use?! Is Leader Mono, or Fluoro.

[@mikestacklebox]

@@lancecuarisma7399 I use standard 20lb power pro super slick. Leader is also basic basic Big game 30lb mono. Cheers brotha

[@xubin5690]

Hey Mike did you replace hooks

[@mikestacklebox]

@@xubin5690 I always upgrade them with Vmc size 4x. On the down side of things I crush my barbs for an easier release and less damage.

[@ronj9003]

fall run?

[@mikestacklebox]

@@ronj9003 as the fish go back to their respected grounds like the delta or water ways.

[@kevsgonefishing]

Mike... What app was that at the beginning of the video???
