Fishing From Catalina Island to Long Beach! (Catch, Clean and Cook)

Hey everyone, welcome back to another video! I went with Oliver and Riley over to Catalina Island to try our luck with some calico bass on the artificial lures. We had a tough time scratching anything together there so we shot back across the channel and fished inside Long Beach Harbor where we found some aggressive bass. I also brough back a sheephead from the island for us to cook up at home!

I pulled a big fat 20" Calico from San Juan rock at Dana on Sunday, the bite was on. A friend of mine also got a 50# + sea bass on a kayak out of Dana also that day, Keep an eye out.

My wife and I fished around Catalina Island on our Honeymoon so it brought back a good memory.

[@fluentfishing]

@@fluentfishing We got married at the San Clemente somewhere close to Dana Point where we stayed and I took her to the galleries in the Laguna Beach Area and also took a day trip to the gas light district in San Diego it was our first trip west but she rewarded me with a fishing outing. I got lucky:) We enjoyed the cooking part of your vid as well as the fishing. We are in horse country in Kentucky. Cheers have a great evening TMI but what the heck….

[@jtuck682]

Lane Kilian of Warbaits produced a video about fishing the rock jetties around Long Beach. My comment to him was: 'There are Donkey Kong Calico's and Sandbass near our local jetties'. I've actually seen a calico caught from Cabrillo Beach jetty so long it's tail stuck out of the duffle bag.

[@fluentfishing]

There are definitely some giant fish there!

[@KevinJ-jp2qx]

Hi what is The Name Of The jig You Were using video

[@fluentfishing]

I started with the Defiant Spinnerbait then we were using the Strike King 10XD Crankbait towards the end!
