@@peterk814 its actually both an ad, and a recommendation. They tell you what reels they use. You can then find a comparable reel that you want to use. They also tell you rod recommendations in ratings. Now you can go and find a rod in whatever rating you like. They said 40lb flouro on 65lb braid. For spinning use 80lb braid or 100lb braid to 80 or 100lb mono. Hook sizes are also in the 1/O to 3/O range. Listen to Ali talk, and ignore the brands if that makes you feel better.

Good stuff Ali. Loving these segments. It really gets people to understand that it is not always a 1 rod and reel situation. Different rods and reels for different fish, along with different hooks for different bait. The one thing I would like to see is how you actually setup your leader for different situations. Such as going from bait to a lure. Lets say the fathom has 40lb on and you notice you need 30lb cause the fish are being picky, how do you attach your new leader to your braid on the boat. Also knots that you guys prefer. For live bait, lures, or an overall knot.

Any additional ad ice for a newer tuna dude. I just moved back to so ca. and I’m amazed at what y’all are catching out here. You used to have to go on 10-30 day trips to catch the big 200-300 lbs blue fin. 3-5 day trip to catch 80-150 lbs yellow fin. I’m hearing y’all catching on over nights and day and a half or 1.75 day trips. I’m a big bass (fresh water) guy. But I’m really wanting to get into salt. Back in the 90’s I did a 3 day to Guadalupe Island caught a 100+ lbs yellow fin and won thats days and that trips jackpot. That was how far south I remember you had to at least go before really getting into good tuna. I’m blown away. So amazing.

what I would like to see for content is tips for maintaining the bluefin in the freezer for as long as possible as sashimi grade fish. I just learned that Bluefin once frozen should be kept at about the same temp as the covid vaxes. Maybe there will be a surplus of freezers available? Even on my coldest setting, my professionally processed fish only lasts about 6 to 8 months tops where it has that beautiful just frozen color.

Newport Landing/Davey's Locker captains out of Newport Beach won't even bother stopping on foamers of microbait because the captains think the sportfish won't bite anything else. We drove directly over a bait ball 40' wide and I thought the boat was going to sink from lack of water beneath us. The wild, micro bait fish were anchovies I believe that were about 1.5" long.

Good tips just that most guys should have at least 50 yards of mono on top of their braid especially on a sportboat. Few reasons you have some stretch between you and the fish and your hook is farther from your very visible braid. I work on sportboats and so many of the guys that are great fisherman I know that fish those tuna on long range all fish 50 yards of mono and 90% of the time out fish guys especially in pick bites. If they’re eating wide open it doesn’t seem to matter. I’m not a fluoro guy for that stuff just use izorline first string in clear blue and I do very well
@LocalKnowledge3 жыл бұрын
Definitely different strokes for different folks. I would argue that a live bait towing around 50' of heavy mono isn't going to appear as natural as one with 6' of flouro tied to it. Either way, do what your deckhand recommends on the sportboats and have fun.

Thanks for the tips. Also I am debating to put 80 lb power pro of 600 yards or 100 power pro maxquatro of 500 yards on my accurate 800n for mainly a flat fall rig or sinker rig. Which do you think I should do if I’m fishing 2.5 day trips on a charter? And is 500 yards enough? TIA

What's a good all around spinning combo?
@LocalKnowledge5 жыл бұрын
WE like the PENN Slammer III paired with a 30-80# carnage rod. Great all around rig for anywhere.

Dear MR my englis is not so good, i fishing tuna in Panamá and i use Spinning Reel Daiwa BG 8000 and Casting reel Lexa 400, i love Casting reel but Lexa is too small to Panamá big tuna, id like to know is you use Penn Fatthon to cast popper?
@LocalKnowledge3 жыл бұрын
The PENN Fathom 25N is a great reel for casting poppers to medium size tuna.

very informative thank you. what size braid are you using on the Penn Slammer 5500?
@LocalKnowledge4 жыл бұрын
65 pound braid. Thanks.

The heavier spinning rod set up should only be about 7’ right? Wouldn’t 8’6 be to big for a heavier set up?
@LocalKnowledge3 жыл бұрын
Yes. 7' to 7.5' for a heavier spin rig.

I'm considering getting the penn slammer III 9500 or 10500. Which rod would you recommend? I'm planning on spooling it with 80lb. braid for tuna fishing.
@LocalKnowledge4 жыл бұрын
Penn makes couple of longer Carnage 2 popping rods. Those woudl be a great start. You can also probably use a smaller reeels. We use 7500 size for 100# fish.

For cheaper charters, That go no further than san clemente or just a 1 day charter do you recommend the 25n or the 40n? Also are the conventional reels limited to just live bait or will i be able to throw lures? If so which type of lures?
@LocalKnowledge5 жыл бұрын
The type of trip doesn't' really matter. These three set ups cover lures and bait fishing. The conventionals will throw lures, but not as far or efficiently as the dedicated popper set up. We like the nomad madscad, riptides and chug norris' for bluefin lures.

Hi, Ali, what model rod do you have paired to that Slammer III spinning reel?
@LocalKnowledge3 жыл бұрын
We pair them with Carnage II rods. Just match the rod size to reel size and leader weight you plan on using. Always go up one size in rods as they are a little underrated.

Hey I have a penn fathom 30ld narrow well the same ones you got but mines a 30, with a penn carnage 2 jigging rod it’s goes from 5-8oz , what can I use it for bait fishing to is the setup good ?
@LocalKnowledge3 жыл бұрын
It will work for sure. I'd recommend a non jigging rod for baitfishing like a Carnage 2 40-80# rod. It will have a more firm action and make pulling in those big fish easier.

Curious as to if you guys have tried out the Buffalo slow pitch jig by Nomad, I know they are one of the show sponsors and you guys seem to be pretty keen on their tackle. They remind me a lot of a Butterfly Jig was wondering if you had a chance to give them a shot.
@LocalKnowledge5 жыл бұрын
Yes sir. We have been using them for bluefin, yellowfin and bottom fish on both coasts. They get bit and the rigging and finish is first class!
