[@massivehorsepower]

Awesome stuff. There you go people the SD rig made right in front of you. Why are you still here get FISHING. Section 8

[@alexanderpfleger3265]

Hey San Dog. I just wanted to say thank you. Rigged up like this yesterday and caught 3 Hali in Pt. Loma channel. 19,19 and 20. Bummer no dinner but thats a first for me catching 3 in an hour. Also caught a 3.5 to 4.5 foot shark. You da man.

[@sandog]

damn that's a good day 🤘🤘 once you cach the short ones... you're gonna catch the big ones... justva matter of time. congrats bro!

[@110welding]

Excellent tutorial.... I've always used the bouncing ball in San Francisco Bay, but I'm not having any luck here in SD. I will switch to this method now. Thanks for the class. 👍👍

[@sandog]

I think it would work up in san Fran w more weight and a stronger line. But ice watched those guys up there kill it with the bouncy ball. Thanks for watching bro!

[@konstageo7090]

Learned the rig from you and that’s all I use now. Mostly with the three way swivel.

[@ChooChooTrain190]

Thank you for sharing your fishing knowledge so freely! This rig is on one of the rods for sure.

[@SixthEstateAZ]

On our way to SD tonight!

[@sandog]

Go get em bro!

[@glenfishing]

Thank you Glenn. I’m new to kayak fishing so I’m running around the bays. But when the time comes, I’ll prob hit you up for a LJ guide. Thanks man

[@sandog]

Right on bro! Good luck out there! The fishing is heating up!!

I use a similar set up with sliding sinker, bead and treble hook that the deck hands on the Lenbrooke taught me in 1980 when fishing halibut in the Santa Monica Bay. I fish the Big Bay mostly and outside off Corodado Island since moving my boat to the Marine Corp Recruit Depot near Liberty station..

[@sandog]

I guarantee I see your boat a lot. I fish the dock at liberty Station all the time. What's her name... I'll give her a shout out next time I'm near her 😅😅😅

@@sandog In recent months I have been fishing with a partner on a 23 foot Boston whaler outrage. We launch from the MCRD launch ramp. For 10 years I lived on a 32 foot flybridge sedan on the furthest south end tie at the ASW base across from the harbor island fuel dock. Her name was “JOLLY MON” she was very visible from the water. I often talked to boats and kayaks going by my boat. For the last five years my 32 footer was in the slip at MCRD. She was not very visible there. I was not very visible there either. I have lived in a residential care facility for the elderly for the last four years. I am 74 years old. My partner on the Boston whaler is 79 years old. We are both having problems with neck injuries. We have not fished very much over the last six months. The name of the Boston whaler is “WILL SPENT”. Sometimes we do launch in mission bay. Because of our advancing age and physical problems, we have scaled back our fishing trips. We don’t chase tuna anymore and stick pretty close to the coast. We have been fishing shallow water rockfish and halibut for a couple years. Hopefully we’ll be able to get out in the next couple months. The only suggestion I have about halibut is that I do not use a double hook setup. I use a single treble hook through the nose. I fished for 10 years for halibut in the Santa Monica bay on the half day boats watching people try to every trick in the world to catch halibut. I caught bigger fish and won more jackpots and a $2000 outboard motor in the Santa Monica bay halibut derby using a single treble hook through the nose. I like your youtube presentation and I subscribed.

@Hoppy Weiss Animal Lover sorry to hear about you and your buddy having those issues. It sounds like you've had a heck of a time, though. If you want.... you and your buddy can plan a trip, and I'll come with and make a video if you'd like. Put it on here, and you guys can have a trip to look back and watch forever. I've done that for a few people.... but at a minimum, now that I know your boat, I'll give he r a shout-out when I cruise buy her. Let me know when you go out... even if it's just the 2 of you, and maybe i can meet you down there on my yak. Tight lines, brother!

[@LetsGoFishingBrandon]

Cool new easy way to fish a stinger rig for halibut. But in theory I would think putting the line through the other side of the j hook eye could improve hook up ratio even more 🤙

[@brianmcarthur7423]

Subscribed. Good vid

[@sandog]

thanks bro!

[@joseponce3674]

Thanks for the tutorial!!

[@sandog]

No problemo. Thanks for watching 🤘🤘

[@kevincrain7499]

Thank you for sharing, It seems your setup is for shore or jetty fishing which is a lot of fun. For offshore in a boat for bigger halibut the setup is heavier when fishing at debts of 180 to 400 ft. deep. I use 1 to 2 LBS weight with 150 LBS leader 100 LBS braided line attached to main line 80 LBS test. Bait is a combination I like to use is herring, octopus or squid , and salmon strips all on one 7/O to 9/O size circle hook.

[@sandog]

Oh ya... my rig is for the nesr shore hali. Do you do that kind of hali fishing out of San Diego ?

[@garyaromin6]

You’re always awesome!❤

[@sandog]

Appreciate it bro!

[@aj-li4ly]

[@sandog]

Thank you!

[@benca101]

Ok studying this one for tomorrow

[@sandog]

That's what I'll be using🤘🤘

[@sandog]

bro... I'm sick as hell today. gimme a buzz

[@trevorfansler2504]

Yooo it’s trevor from Catalina the fishing has been so good you need some charters out here yellow tail is wide open

[@sandog]

@trevorfansler2504 bro. I texted your mom and she didn't text back. Do you have a phone number. I wanted to talk w you. You can put it here and then I'll delete it after I get it so it don't stay up on KZbin

[@sandog]

@trevorfansler2504 I wanna get you guiding

[@ralphhayes1613]

Nice Demo!

[@sandog]

Thanks bro

[@Xhalegaming]

Got any videos of how to hook it to live bait properly?

[@sandog]

@Xhalegaming I do mention it in a few videos. The J hook goes sideways through the nose, and the treble goes in the back, by the tail, on the top part of the sardine, 1 barb in and out

[@asapandy831]

What a good reel and rod setup for Halibut fishing in San Diego?

[@sandog]

I like light action rods with like 15- 20 # test. Shimano sienna 3000 is a good little hali reel

[@asapandy831]

Sounds good and should I put mono or braided line ? @sandog

[@sandog]

@@asapandy831 I just spool up mono

[@asapandy831]

Nice I also live in San Diego do you have any fishing combos for sale by any chance @sandog

[@sandog]

@@asapandy831 no I would hit up FB market place. Tons of stuff on there usually

[@carlsbadkook]

How long is the leader?

[@sandog]

I usually have it about 3 feet

[@chazzman8206]

My trap hooks fall out of the bait about 90% of the time. Any tips to keep them in place?

[@sandog]

Give a quick jerk, and try and keep a good bend in the rod. If they pop off... take it out of gear and drop the bait back down as soon as it pops off. They pop off mine sometimes as well 🤷‍♂️
