[@kpnitrl38]

Ok. I had to pause the video after the 1st 5:54 sec... That crap was intense! The music coming into the final 2 mins was dead on. I almost threw my phone through the ceiling when I jumped up when you guys staring yelling like you just won the Superbowl of Fishing! I almost started crying with joy. Best Damn 5 minutes EVER for a fishing video!!

[@DDFishingCo]

Such an awesome comment Troy! It truly gives us motivation to make more videos and make them better each time. So cool to see comments like this!!

[@kpnitrl38]

@@DDFishingCo I really enjoy you guys. Thanks for all of your hard work. In front and behind the camera.

[@DDFishingCo]

@@kpnitrl38 Thanks Troy!!!!

[@leonardoferlinghetti4933]

Good work! Maybe drag could be tighter…

[@DDFishingCo]

In hindsight, I think so, it was our first ever BFT. This year, we went tighter and get them in much faster.

[@reel4fish]

Rookies...!

[@DDFishingCo]

That is true, it was our first BFT ever. This is the first they have really came up this far.

[@baldeaglefishingadventures]

Awesome job guys!!!!!!! I just came across your youtube channel, love it, and subscribed!! I have a buddy of mine Lance that has a berth next to me there at Mason's Marina, and he did very well in Nov. also on Bluefin, I will be on the hunt for them next year, and hopefully they will show back up!!!! Thanks again for the AWESOME video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@DDFishingCo]

This is so awesome to see comments like this. Thanks so much! Glad you liked the video. Hopefully we all can get on them again next year!

[@eddiegapasangra6859]

Very nice guys this my bucket list

[@DDFishingCo]

That’s awesome Eddie, hopefully you can get one!

[@willbayles2164]

Damn thing fought so hard you almost start to root for it,,,,,almost I said

[@DDFishingCo]

I almost felt the same way hahaha

[@ReelNautiAdventures]

What are the dimensions on your boat? Length, width, height without the cabin. Also, the weight without the cabin?

[@DDFishingCo]

24’ I don’t have the height without the cabin or the weight. I would guess around 7ft or so to the tallest point in height without the cabin. With the cabin maybe another 5-6ft. Weight wise maybe 8000lbs?

[@ReelNautiAdventures]

@@DDFishingCo i appreciate the response. Im about to be fulltime traveling in a bumber pull travel trailer and am trying to figure out what type of boat to put on top my truck with an Aussie truck top boat mount. Kayaks won't work because I'll have a 60lb dog w me and beyond that, I don't like the idea of being in a kayak on the ocean.

[@DDFishingCo]

Yeah that sounds like a lot of weight on a kayak. They have those larger solo skiff boats that might work?

[@ReelNautiAdventures]

@@DDFishingCo thank you, I'll check them out. I've been looking at the Stabicraft 1850. But would to find some comparable American made ones.

[@DDFishingCo]

Nice man! Good luck to you and hopefully you find the perfect vessel!

[@timmiller3133]

Just wearing out ur clicker, turn it off after you hook up . Is a good alert but after that you only wear on it, with respect 👍

[@DDFishingCo]

We definitely could have turned it off, just so we all could hear what was going on incase we need to stop the boat or something.

[@sparksmobilerepair4025]

Very cool hope some day to hook into one of those Giants on my boat! You guys need to do a boat video on your setup im interested in the kicker motor setup you have Ive been looking for something similar for my rig

[@DDFishingCo]

Hope you get into some of those fish too! It’s a blast. That’s a good idea for a video, we will get one out soon!

[@sparksmobilerepair4025]

[@Esechapin]

What rod did they use to catch that bluefin?

[@DDFishingCo]

We used an Okuma PCH

[@jcm5343]

Fun day! The volume at SD is mind blowing, but our local fish is a lot more impressive. Glad the second one didn’t get away. We lost 4 hook ups two Monday ago. Errr…

[@DDFishingCo]

It’s insane what’s down there, out bluefin up here have been great size this year! Man what a day lost 4 hookups? That’s crazy. Did you land any!?

[@primetimesportfishing6569]

Great stuff man, seems like catching these fish up north has become more and more common! Nice video, FISH ON!!! 🤙🏽

[@DDFishingCo]

Thanks man!! It was an epic day!! So cool to see these fish up here. Fingers crossed they stick around for a little while longer!! I just saw your pics on Instagram on the day you got some big eye and bluefin. Thanks epic!

[@jamesslack2917]

Buddy has gone out twice with his crew ran out of Bodega to the temp line and have put 4 BT’s in the boat. I’m stuck down in Carlsbad boatless on a fam trip missing out, nice job boys 👍🐟🍻

[@DDFishingCo]

That’s sweet James about your buddy. We got another one today. Such a bummer you are stuck in Carlsbad!! Thanks James!

[@tunanorth]

If you are in Carlsbad, then just 30 miles south of you is the largest bluefin tuna-targeting sportfishing fleet on the west coast. At this time of year, you can probably get aboard without too much trouble.

[@deltapromasterlauj4848]

y not throw som top water for them foamers?????

[@DDFishingCo]

We would have if we could have found a big enough group. The fish were blowing up all over the place, but nothing in a tight pocket that you could roll up on and throw poppers. The fish blowing up were all around. Every direction we could see a jump. They just weren’t right like a big group of foamers so we didn’t try that technique.

[@yjjustforme1]

Damn what a epic trip guys!!! Congrats 🤘🏼

[@DDFishingCo]

Thanks Jake it was truly an amazing experience!

[@familyfishkiller1062]

How fast you go how long behind the boat

What date was the video made?

[@DDFishingCo]

Saturday the 19th of November.

[@1tom35]

Great video, how fast was boat speed?

[@DDFishingCo]

Thanks sir. Boat speed varied depending on swell and direction we were moving. Up to 16mph at times.

[@offnight.4243]

Anyone know of any good captains going out for blue fin?

[@DDFishingCo]

I’m not sure of any 6 packs that have been going out lately. Some 6 packs went out about a month ago!
