I notice that slight knee dip on the crest of the cast. A little more velocity that way?

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

yes

[@albertcascia4465]

Important wind faster when hit! Very important point!

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

Thanks

What rod and handle style is that?

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

it is no longer a thing

[@kwametwumasi8543]

Thanks for the video man very informative and educational . Keep up the good work.

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

Thanks for watching!

[@smashrc123]

how about live bait? Do you swing?

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

for sure

[@MrJesus100]

So what are considered surface irons then if they’re less than an oz when majority from salas and Tady are between 2-4oz for tady c to salas 7x

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

LIGHT WEIGHT

[@HoaTran-ky3hy]

Thank you very much for your teaching and have a great day

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

Thank you too

[@MidniteClubII]

Ahoy Captain, you indicate that the Tady 45 Wounded soldier weighs less than an ounce. I have been looking for that specific Tady 45 Wounded soldier but the lightest i've seen them are 2.9oz. Can you confirm it is LESS THAN AN OUNCE?.. If so, Do you know any shop who carries them? Thanks in advance.

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

its is 2.9 sorry my bad I got to excited

[@andrewmorke]

Is that a Cavalla 12ii? It looks like a good reel. Thanks for your advice on not striking a "dog-boning" take but rather retrieving faster. I caught a lot of 40"-50" YT and dorado on my last trip, but I missed a good number of strikes by making that mistake.

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

you are welcome

[@2derekjeter2]

Do you prefer a star drag with cast control or 2 speed with cast control to cast jigs? Thinking of getting the Avet mxl raptor with cast control

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

I am OKUMA FAN I like the star drag always better for everything I do. Cortez 10 Tessro 10 those are what I would use Avet is ok

[@roberthubbard5008]

Looks like you're in Cabo

Yes I am

[@whatdamush]

man i want that rod ...super sick!

Tady 45 weighs less than an oz? Surface iron?

[@joeymcewen3067]

they weight 2.5 ounces

Great videos man. Have a question if you don’t mind. All my ocean fishing has been central coast rock fishing. Next season I want to venture south for slightly bigger. Would like to do some overnight trips maybe even a 3 day. I only have a Diawa Lexa 400 and the smaller 300. Is that going to be to undersized for YT and Dorado? I have 65lb braid with 40lb mono but would be easy to up the top shot. Thanks man.

[@alexfernandes7336]

I think for yellowtail and dorado (and even yellowfin tuna) the 400 will work perfect. If you use a 20-30 lb flouro leader with that you will do well as long as you have your drag set right.

[@YourSaltwaterGuide]

YES THE 400 will be fine

[@tobatzpinlac7727]

Sir can i use spinning setup for yoyo and surface iron? Thankyou!

Finally got serious about fishing, got the rods and reels... catching some stuff, but not the tuna yet. I have been doing it "wrong"! August/2020 got used boat and going out of Shelter Island this weekend to use your input regarding hooks, bait, etc. I look forward to watching your next videos. Thanks for your sharing this valuable input!!! Now where to go in Ocean...?

Fishing the wrong rod & reel!! You need a jig stick 9Ft or 10 Ft rod but also a star drag reel.
