That is a huge Verm! No electric reels? That would be more efficient, but would take away some of the fun!

[@DDFishingCo]

Giant Verm!! You are totally right, an electric reel would be way more efficient. We do have electric reel setups and have used them in the past. It makes things much easier haha. We wanted to have some fun with the fish and left the electric stuff at home on this trip 🤙

When was the last time you tried Bocaccio? I think it tastes really good. Fillet it, add olive oil and panko cook it in a cast iron on high heat, and don't over cook it. It's really good.

[@DDFishingCo]

We will have to try that! The last time we kept them it was last year. They were fairly smelly fish, something seemed off forsure. Maybe we had a few off ones. We will have to try again. Thanks for the tip! 👍

Great video! Very informative, unlike most that just show catching fish. How long ago was this video taken? Thanks for your effort.

[@DDFishingCo]

Thank you very much! This was filmed in late October of this year. We haven’t been out in December yet. Looking for some good weather to go!

What’s wrong with reaction tackle 🤣 I love that braid has never failed me

[@DDFishingCo]

Haha theres nothing wrong with as far as breaking strength goes. Its a great price point and we have used it in close quarters situations. Last year we were on the deep reef and one guys in the boat had reaction tackle and everyone else had different braid. He was having a tough time with bottom contact feel compared to the other guys. His line had a ton of scope compared to us. When you are in 300ft and you switch from 80lb braid to 65lb or 50lb braid there is a significant difference in what you feel on bottom.

[@Choks18]

@ I definitely know what you mean. I just can’t justify paying more for braid when it does what I need it for.

[@DDFishingCo]

Totally makes sense, if its working its working! 👍

[@mitchhendrickson4936]

Very informative, thanks again for another great video. Out of curiosity, what's your thought process on spinning gear for jigging?

[@DDFishingCo]

Thank you!! Personally I don’t mind it at all, I think a spinning rod is always fun. Especially on the inshore if you can get away with a lighter rod/setup. It might not be as efficient as a conventional setup since you are constantly dropping your bait up and down. Conventional is better more efficient setup overall, however it’s personal preference.

Those plastic tentacles on the squidtrex will melt like hell and stick to each other if stored in too hot an environment! That’s for Sure 😂 had a couple already do that but they work great

[@DDFishingCo]

You are right about that! They definitely do melt if not stored properly. Happened to us once! They actually aren't supposed to be stored in any plastic container other than nomads special box they have for the squidtrex and vertrex. The special nomad boxes do not fit the larger model squidtrex. The plastic will react to other types of plastic. Its best to keep them away from other types of plastic. Thanks for watching!

[@AKFish2023]

Did you keep or release the yelloweye? In many places they must be released. You should mention that so people don't accidentally break the law.

[@DDFishingCo]

Great question! We did not keep any yellow eye as its illegal. Towards the end of the video there is a brief scene with a descending device with a yellow eye. We say we descended all of the small yellowtail rockfish and the bocaccio. In future videos we can clarify that we released those.

Going fishing you should also know the rules and laws.
