GIANT Yellowtail! FISH of a LIFETIME! Catch, Clean & Cook! California Fishing!

I catch a fish of a lifetime in California: a GIANT Yellowtail next to an Island in the middle of the ocean! The boys say it was the biggest one caught this season! We stayed overnight next to this incredible island, and in the morning I was woken up by the scream of a reel and this giant fish! We caught a bunch of new species I've never seen before including yellowtail rock fish, white fish, sheepshead and more! We were surrounded by sea lions and Rizzo dolphins! I fillet the yellowtail and bring it back home to Florida to cook! I cook the yellowtail 2 different ways for some of my girlfriends; seared and baked with a teriyaki sauce! Both were delicious!

Im 76 yo and I used to live in Cal I have caught yellowtail and they are strong and delicious fish sheephead are also very good enjoyed the vid

[@jayportalatin654]

It's amazing how many species the world's oceans hold! And yet the Amazon river has more than all of them!

[@OMgxXxPapERCuTxXx]

Welcome to Cali. Yellowtail are our best fighting fish

[@douglasgault5458]

Over the years I've had so many epic days deep sea fishing off California.

[@LanceMcCormick]

Awesome Job on the Slay. California fishing baby, you don't sweat, no bugs, no worms and some awesome cold water fish! Did 25 years as sonar tech out of San Diego. Know all those islands and fishing holes like the back of my hand. You did nice basket of different goodies! West coast amber jacks are the best! My wife's favorite!

[@brookcristoutdoors]

Thanks Lance!!

[@treborBob100]

Brookie Come on man call her Brook! You are way way to cheese Victor . I LOVE YOU BOTH! Even Victor's cheesy.

[@nidalleva1873]

[@tylerveal9814]

You and Vic need to come back for lobster season it’s so much fun. And they taste better than any other lobster

[@brookcristoutdoors]

I want to!! It’s on the list!!

[@tylerveal9814]

@@brookcristoutdoors yeah you have too it’s unlike any other lobstering

[@user-hl7ep4ep3y]

I enjoy the fishing but the food prep is A1 and always makes me hungry!

[@riwm45]

In my experience. A seal will never stop swimming up till your rod is spooled.

[@jesuslovesyou5681]

Yellowtail is part of the Jack family

[@izadeonaldo4421]

Good day Brook....you have do many catches big fishes....its so nice place there and nice ocean....keep safe and godbless you&your family always...watching from saudi arabia😊

[@rickcox3806]

Girl I live in California no long I’ve been fission I’ve never caught one that big yet so you got a gold mine and be proud good job

[@hamletramcharitar804]

Always enjoy watching you Brook

[@chreess343]

At least you guys beat the smoke from the fires... It's just been an red orange for a couple weeks and the smell of smoke every day

[@brookcristoutdoors]

a trip I'll never forget!! I went a little out of order and uploaded day 2 before day 1! so be waiting for day 1 coming soon! Thank you for watching! 😊

[@charlieduvall6463]

Wow you crushed it on the yellowtail

[@activity1]

Nice

[@zish4u854]

Carry on Sis.. Hope u happy always

[@SDkd619]

Them yellowtail get you pretty excited ! 🤘🏼 woop woop . Did it fight harder than yalls amberjacks on the east coast ?

[@glendarastv987]

Nice fish

[@warren6172]

Living in Cali my whole life. It’s hard to appreciate what we have available here until you see it in a video. 👍 great job

[@davidhopson9802]

What some beautiful fish yall caught congratulations brook and chris. As always God bless y'all and your families love y'all my friends

[@F1Hopeful]

Forgot……one last thing. Your fish prep and cooking is over the top. Congrats!!!!

[@F1Hopeful]

Brook. We fish that all the time. Believe me….normally the weather is ROUGH. It is never that smooth and lake-like. So glad you got sample our California fishery. The scenery can be absolutely captivating and the fishing can be epic at times. The downer is that the weather can be real poopy a lot of the time and quite frankly I’m tired of sighing in hoodies and overalls. To me, nothing beats fishing in Florida. Tarpon being my favorite…..and shorts and slip flops all year round. Heaven!!!!!!

[@bruceleroy1683]

Looks like one of those post cards from the 50's with a giant fish or jackalope.

[@fishkingify]

Thanks for shinning the light on our beautiful west coast fisheries.

[@katherinehernandez8679]

I just discovered your channel! I’ve never been fishing but I love the water so much! It’s the natural next step for me to start going out there and catching some fish. Your videos are so informative, entertaining, and wholesome!! Love your channel! And the handmade lobster catchers!

[@Timbad316]

You and vic compliment each other for the wonderful ways you both come up with a awaome meal other than we your fans can't be there too taste your creations. Thanks for all you do. Great episode

[@scorporsupremacy7948]

Nothing like enjoying good times with good friends 👍🏽🇻🇮

[@joedom9369]

Looks like y’all had a lot of fun making this video. Great job. Loved the bloopers.

[@BasicFishingNZ]

[@robertschultz366]

Awesome fishing and lobster catching on the other one.❤

[@guybever8935]

Glad to see you went to the west coast. Good fishing. Enjoyed the video. Thanks.

[@jesseg.3265]

[@07Kimo07]

Wow! That's a trophy Yellowtail. Congrats!

[@rosetornandizo8269]

Congratulations Brook for a 50 lbs. yellow fin tuna!

[@TheSimpsonTwins_]

So glad you were able to get on YellowTail. My twin and I will be in SoCal fishing for them next month

[@j0s3a38]

Giant yellowtail congrats Brook.

[@dennisnorkaitis9726]

Thank you for taking somewhere I'll never get to go. You Brooke and Victor rock . thank you both !!!!

[@KobeBryantFan]

Why not, if you can find a cheap round trip flight to L.A California you can then book the overnight fishing trip for approximately $250 (that is the back side of Catalina Island or San Clemente Island) otherwise these fish will be migrating down to Mexico (La Paz or Cabo) in search of warmer weather.

[@peterloaguejr.690]

This was great. What a trip

[@AlaskaPirates]

Loving these videos. Looking forward to seeing what you guys get up to up here in my neck of the woods!

[@TomMendoladrums]

Well done Brook. Welcome to the west coast.

[@elmajotojot3946]

Its so amazing a huge yellowtail and a very nice color of fishes.😍

[@rosalindabarrett7508]

Excellent job Brook.

[@johnferrerjr.4263]

I’d like to try that pasta salad and add Kamala olives

[@BeverlySapp]

Fun to watch you clean fish on that black table. Waiting for y to forget a d throw the fish cleaning over in the water. You never did. Great job! Love your videos!.!

[@brookcristoutdoors]

Lol thank you

[@rab512003]

Hi Brook, I bet you guys had a blast, That would a fishing trip of a life time.

[@sherryted]

Brooke love your videos. I watched all your California videos so far and you brother or friend not sure 🤔. If you ever get a chance you need to scuba dive the Chanel islands especially where you got that big yellow. If you have never gone diving with dozens of sea lions it’s just pure joy. And all the amazing sea creatures ca has to offer 👍

[@satesh7476]

Now that was some nice fishing awesome video and the food looks delicious 😋 nicely done 👍👍💯🇹🇹🇹🇹

[@gpslightlock1422]

Wow what a show. Better than Nat Geo!

[@captraykelly]

Another great show, Brook. Kudos on that Yellowtail 😎

[@matthewmakowski5671]

Don't think I saw any wedding rings.... LOL just kidding great job Brookie looks like y'all had a blast!

[@sandyrucker3738]

The teriyaki yellow tail looked so good

[@reneeziayadonovan1282]

What an AWESOME trip!!! You are so lucky to be able to do what you are doing!! Enjoy every minute!! 🙂

[@achangyw]

[@41bigdeer]

Great video Brook.

[@mrprice2275]

Brook for the win 🏆 Shout out from San Diego CA

[@lavidatribe769]

Love the new action packed intro style!

[@aqualife88]

I have so many things to say about this video! I love how the sheepshead look over there, especially the males, so beautiful! I love seeing you and Vic so happy to be over in Cali! You can tell yall truly enjoy and appreciate it! I am sure we will be seeing more videos in the future over there! Great people, great family, great video! I love how everyone over there is so appreciative of the fish too. Glad to see a huge smile on your face, Brook!

[@joshuacraft493]

I love how different the sheepshead species is on the pacific coast compared to the Gulf of Mexico where I live! And how they all start out as females and not as attractive and turn into males as they get older (4-5 years if I remember right, maybe up to 10 idk lol) but I think it’s funny how in most fish species just like 99% of all bird/feather species, the male is by far the way more beautiful creature than the female, and supposedly “my god” made them that way or “Mother Nature” did, so these males of most all species can dance and shake they pretty tail feathers to impress him a lady friend and get some bird and fish booty! Crazy thing tho in the fish world how most all species still find a partner to “jizz” all over her eggs. Naturally instinctual no one taught them, so clearly fish are much more bright than we humans take them to be! Really humans are the big dummies in most senses (or all of their 5 senses. Hearing, smell, sight, touch, tasting) when our brains and opposable thumbs make us the greatest, highest on the food chain!!’ But yet most all species of mammals and even fish have us beat in 3-4 out of 5 senses! And we’re talking like almost all mammas can smell from 5,000 to 25,000 times greater than our weak ass noses! (Most especially mine!!!) ok I got off topic! I just get super excited talking about animals! My mom swears I made a mistake and should have gone to school for marine biology or became a dog trainer so good to put Caesar the dog whisperer a run for his money as TOP HUMAN DOG RESPECTED TRAINING INDIVIDUAL! Anyways back off to sleep another hour or 2 before

[@dondj76]

Awesome fishing!!!

[@C-24-Brandan]

That Yellowtail is Impressive!! Super Nice fish, that trip looked like such a good time! Definitely a nice break from Florida Fishing/Species.

[@BTSARMY-mr3lz]

YellowTale was Awesome and Impressive 👍👌👌

[@kennyairheart894]

Awesome vid. Congrats on the huge yellowtail. Y’all killed it at the cook and eat party. You could give Victor some pointers on how to relax and enjoy it. 👍

[@rodneyhendrickson9811]

Amazing !!!!!!!

[@stevepd1]

Please stay in Florida as I love watching your local videos. We don't have many fish left to share (except for this year's epic bluefin bite) with y'all. OK, you can take one or two, but not the biggens!!!

[@josephremarcik4250]

Another great video, wev will be on the fin fetish may 24-252023, with CPt Brian. looks likev a blast

[@outabeat]

It's cool to see y'all on the west coast. We had big schools of yellowtail swim right under our boat years ago in Isthmus Cove at Catalina Island. Everyone was throwing lines in the water. Next time you're out here in Cali, we have the the best lobster fishery on the west coast in Santa Barbara. Along with a HUGE sea urchin fishery. Hit me up.

[@steephenp.m4767]

Super fishing, good video, thanks all .....

Howdy from North Florida! Nice job on the filleting! Real good tip on removing the skin. I just finally figured that out this morning on a Jack Crevalle after much trial and error. (lot of error)

[@jefflowney2114]

awesome fisherman and great at filleting too!

[@tonysanmangelo5928]

Fun fishing trip with a Delicious ending as always with Brook doing the cooking!

[@dennisnorkaitis9726]

Victor is an amazing cook Also.

[@TryABaconSlice]

You should get out to New Zealand, we get yellowtail to ~100lb and you can catch them by the dozen if you are prepared to travel out to somewhere like the three kings islands
