Jigging Daytime SQUID in So Cal!

[@ReelAZMatt]

Hey Johnny! Are you the same Socal Johnny that once caught a 300+ pound Big Eye? And sold a few custom Calstar rods? Sounds like your voice.....

[@socaljiggingwithjohnny8287]

Hi Matt, yes, that's me! It was 256. 👍

@@socaljiggingwithjohnny8287 Hey man! Long time! I bought some Calstars from you back in 2001 maybe

@@ReelAZMatt Hey Matt, I remember your name. You still fish alot? I mostly just slow pitch now.

@@socaljiggingwithjohnny8287 Hey Johnny! I just got back into fishing since my kids are old enough to leave them alone with Mom! Rockfish are becoming my passion and I would love to learn to slow pitch. Are you on Instagram?

@@ReelAZMatt sorry not on IG. Can you DM me? Or I'm also on Facebook a lot. Would be happy to show you the basics and you can try out some of the different setups I have.

[@getitdone6694]

Hey what setup is the watch and camera, read that it's a Sony you got a model? Is the cam same? Thanks

[@socaljiggingwithjohnny8287]

Sony I think asv1. Is old, like 5-7 years? Came in a big kit.

[@getitdone6694]

@@socaljiggingwithjohnny8287 So the kit includes camera and watch contraption? The reason I ask is I think I saw the watch but didn't know about the cam that you have, Do you wear it on you cap? Anyways good stuff.

[@getitdone6694]

Found it Sony HDR-AZ1VR/WTG Action Cam Mini with Live View Remote Watch

[@getitdone6694]

Actually Sony HDR-AZ1 Wifi Action Camera Camcorder W/ Extras

I wear it on a head mount with straps. That's why it tilts to the sides sometimes, and you can see my eyebrows on the left top of the screen at times.

What time of day did you get on the Squid beds?

[@socaljiggingwithjohnny8287]

We hit them at around 8 am and 2 pm. They were there all day

[@getitdone6694]

Yeah I never actually caught them before, just bought the rig for it, even have the green light, now finding them is another story. I usually fish SoCal Palos Verdes, sometimes Channel Islands. What's funny is I have an underwater camera to 50 feet and I thought maybe I can spot some that way. Of course I also have some Lowrance Live equipment. At some point I got to find them.

@@getitdone6694 they show up as blue fuzz on a fish finder, no red like a dense school of baitfish.
