Low-key Jun today!! I’m not used to a normal level of excitement out of you! You are a very nice husband to listen your wife when she says “Go catch a Perch!!”

[@MoreThanFishing]

Thanks

[@nated1629]

[@lianadrummond6275]

[@dacowboys01]

[@MrMonkeyGeorge]

You make it look so easy Jun. Wife will be happy.

[@billburgess9100]

A great visual demonstration. Thanks.

[@vaajrambo2053]

Love the way you already imagined how you gonna eat the fish even before you got home... looks tasty

[@chocolatedragon35]

Thanks for the education on surf fishing I’m now a new follower of you

[@PitsTasteGood]

You're awesome description at the end won me over. I love when people talk about food like that!

[@nikobellic8284]

I have a request . ''More than fishing'' + fisherman's life + friends . Should make a weekend trip to travel to some small island with boat and set up camp for that weekend :) . It will be so cool . doing Boat , spear fishing and normal surf and rock fishing . on the island :)

[@MoreThanFishing]

Great idea! 👍👍👍

[@ericcruzstealth]

Your method of hooking the sand crab is the best

[@frankierose889]

Love your videos bro.. thanks for the techniques.. can’t wait to hit the surf and catch some perch and hopefully some striped bass..

[@MoreThanFishing]

Thanks 👍

[@danlearned9728]

"she told me to go fishing and catch her some surf perch" I think we'd all love to have a wife like that!! I noticed what looks like a yellow hook keeper forward of the reel seat. I've two rods that don't have a hook keeper, would like to add something for that purpose. Really don't understand why this isn't on all rods??

[@ericsontandoc4317]

"Advance mag isip" idol. inabangan ko yung patis.. Thanks again for this tutorial kahit walang sandcrab dito sa atin..😁 Salamat

[@MoreThanFishing]

Salamat din!

[@realjimmywillis]

Keep up the great works guys. All the best, Jimmy Willis

[@mikeycityify]

It’s not just fishing, it’s Van Staal baby.

[@DonJetblack00]

Jun.. Bud... You make this look too easy. Wish i would of watch your video before heading out to seal beach today.. I could see the perch jumping out of the water between the 3rd and 2nd sand banks. Youre showing me the ropes and i appreciate that!

[@bbt95762]

Sweet! trying my luck tomorrow along Marin coast, haven't ocean shore fished before - looking forward to it. 2.5 hour drive from Sacto - hope it's worth it! thanks for sharing your techniques. My wife is not pregnant, but told me it's time to bring home the fish!

[@ia6980]

How did it go?

[@WildCatchAdventures]

Awesome work on catching them perch, that's good eatin hehe... just happened to chance on your channel since I got back into fishing, looking forward to more videos...patis makes everything taste better!

[@gregfuzi1069]

3 quarter onz egg sinker .size 6 hook. Spaghetti strainer and your hand to dig out the sand crabs in to the spaghetti strainer. And they make a rake to get sand crabs. I've done a lot of surf fishing the difference between the two crabs is one has shed its hard shell. They both are good to fish with.

[@ericv4152]

Nice reel jun..oops I meant to say nice fish,.,ITS NOT JUST FISHING ITS MORE THAN FISHING!!!

[@MoreThanFishing]

Hahahha😂

[@Eskah.Mof0]

Willgree. Braid work

[@alexabyronfujino8320]

Learned a lot from this video. Thank you!

[@mikeshuck2760]

Nice video. Fun to watch. Way more pole than you need for Perch. I prefer a light Steelhead rod. Makes it a little more fun. Keep the channel going.

[@MoreThanFishing]

Yeah, You’re right. I didn’t bring my light Tackle that was my striper set up. I was planning to do some plugging that day.

This place is incredible! Congratulations, *beautiful* Video. Hugs and good fishing!👍🎣🐠🐟

[@noyarman]

Rice, tomato patis or bagoong! Sarappp!😋😋😋🇵🇭

[@paulojimenez1437]

Good job, PINOY!

[@yanjijay6752]

Yay first but man I miss fishing looks so darn fun plus food looks bomb .

[@sesgia]

can't argue with fresh food!

[@jamesg8073]

Awesome videos thanks for sharing your knowledge!!

[@jaliltoury7429]

Awesome, I followed your rig method and it works for me. Thank you for sharing

[@johnwaynefernando2024]

Prito with kamatis +patis = champion hahaha

[@germsytoad9405]

Great informational video! I've seen them catch a ton of perch using sand crabs but nobody ever explained what they were or how to get them. I plan on fishing Fort Bragg in May so I want to give this a try. Thanks for the video!

[@VanGuard1020]

Nice catches brotha!! 👍🏽🎣🐟🐟 🌊 it’s more than fishing!!

[@MoreThanFishing]

Thanks bro

[@jameskim8574]

I found this place by searching for a spot to fish for my first surf perch fishing a few days ago. Took me 5 hours to find this place by chance. Not telling anybody lol. Met some older guy named Sam that goes there regularly. My biggest perch was 14”. Made some killer tacos

[@freddiegonz4113]

Get a fat tire ebike and you can cruise along miles of beaches

[@ericcruzstealth]

Likely the softshell sandcrab is just a hardshell sandcrab in which it has molted and hence the carapace hasn’t hardened yet

[@mrdcdukes1857]

Thanks so much this video was very informative

[@seacraft18]

Like the tomatoes and Patis! How about Sinigang?

[@GamelanSinarSurya]

Really love your enthusiasm Braddah. Also thanks for all the good tips about rigs, , different kind of sand crabs, regulations, etc. I am new to surf fishing, but I am really enjoying it. Thank you so much!

[@cerescop]

Its not a separate species, its a sand crab that just molted and the shell hasn't hardened yet.

[@josephlacebal2394]

Haha Jun... Das a real Filipino.. wit the hands n rice . Mmmm

[@HellaFish]

Nice. Really fun fishing for surf perch. I wish we had sand crabs here in Washington but unfortunately we don't lol seems like surf perch really enjoy them there. I guess Sand shrimp will do for now :)

[@thomassmestead2801]

Try GULP imitation sandworms in the 2" size, camo color. Also Berkeley's " Micetails" in chartreuse and orange, which is for trout, but works for red tails, too. Razor clam necks work, too. Berkeley also makes an imitation ghost shrimp, haven't tried it yet, but I'll stretchy string them onto a hook, just like live sand shrimp, and see if it works too, next trip out to the coast. When I'm in the field, I carry a variety of imitations and natural baits, switch them up, when the perch get picky. Fish are funny that way, they'll hit one offering consistently, and then refuse to touch it after awhile, so I've learned through experience, to have an "arsenal" of offerings to throw at them, on hand. Good luck. Tight lines.

[@HellaFish]

@@thomassmestead2801 Thanks man really good tips you got there.

[@DieHardFishing]

Great video Jun!!!! We should get back out on the beach again soon!!!

[@MoreThanFishing]

Thanks bro yeah let’s go!!!

[@MoreThanFishing]

Die Hard Fishing Dude I saw your latest striper video. Man that was huge!! Crazy battle you had there but I was crying 😭 while I was watching it because... you know why 😭😭😭 hahhaha

[@DieHardFishing]

hahahahaahaha, don't worry there are still big ones out there!

[@rnkim2564]

A softshell is a hard shell that has molted, it has an exoskeleton

[@federalpablo]

Nice reel amigo!

[@DennSilent]

Ur amazing brother! Wish we were blood brothers.

[@saillei1808]

Thanks for all your tips, I hooked up 2 stripers this year in one trip, using hard shell sand crabs with orange eggs. I have one more question about when to use gulp sand worms and when to use sand crabs? Thank you.

[@overtheedge9298]

Do you rinse your reel with fresh water, after fishing?

[@illokano]

Pinoy Soul Food 🐟 🍅

[@pogifishing1979]

Good fishing...so where's the Patis at the end of video....got me craving

[@MoreThanFishing]

Hahaha 👍🇵🇭

[@shadowfisherman4389]

Nice video bro thanks for the info!👍

[@noah_nguyen_]

The crab is like just kill me already 😂

[@ARCSTREAMS]

wondering if those sand crabs would make a good seafood boil stock for flavoring or for fish soup or stew

[@eugenejohnson8635]

I do some catfish I would love to have some of them Softshell crabs just wondering if catfish eat them

[@konotreal7126]

Cast in deeper water for bigger fish. But small one is better for frying though if no size limit.

[@jewels.1463]

I miss the bite I use to fish all day spend all weekend fishing venice beach California

[@ernestoherrera4705]

Jesus Galvez Hows the fishing there in venice

[@nguyentuan1990]

where is this spot? can someone share it with me please

[@owenjohnson8386]

Great video!!! I think it would be really helpful if you showed how to set up the fish finder rig (knots) also I live in the bay area any recommended fishing spots. or just anywere on the shore.

[@hellacrabz]

awesome

[@atlantic637]

hi bro what brand name is your surf fishing rod could you please share the rod's information

[@jimbo4612]

The video and fishing look great, i just wonder what you put on a barred surf perch to change that funky musty taste they have. The meat is also quite soft and have quite a few bones . Basically we just put them back and work the the surf for halibut instead and load the freezer for months when the halibut are gone. fish fried in oil is a classic old way to cook fish and maybe thats the way to incorporate some fat and more flavor but i'm wondering what spices other than Salt and pepper would help.

[@mikeustan494]

Looking to get into surf fishing. And tips on places to start? I'm from the Eastbay

[@MrDiego2151]

You are the best..

[@nated1629]

Skunked again today. Wish it was this easy

[@TheCloud0626]

How big do the barb perch have to be? I'm going to half moon bay next weekend😊

[@Hook2Cook]

Your laugh is contageous Kuya! XD

[@mattchanthasy9821]

Is it best to fish high or low tide for surf perch?

[@lajlimh895]

Does sandcrab works at any beach for perch or at a certain beach only ?

[@grumpcynic6465]

I may have missed it, but what size bait holder hooks are you using?

[@MoreThanFishing]

1.0 or 2.0 odd hooks

[@grumpcynic6465]

Ahhh thank you sir!

[@jorgesotelo9977]

Hey where is that place that you catch those fish

[@rich3782]

Nice educational video. Enjoyed! I need to get out to coast for some surf fishing. Looks like pearch still biting... what about stripper action? Thanks for posting!

[@MoreThanFishing]

Thanks, striper is kinda slow in the past weeks

[@rich3782]

Okay thank you for the update. It takes nearly 2.5 hours of driving one way to get there for me. But, it looks like Die Hard Fishing got a big one. Going to check out his video.

[@karlchen9024]

curious how do you wear the sandala along with wader that had boots?

[@johnnyjohnson409]

Where do you usually go?

[@sesgia]

i think the beach!

[@johnnyjohnson409]

sesgia I mean where And which beach? Half moon bay ...... highway 1......

[@sesgia]

all along the cost, but ocean beach is good

[@johnnyjohnson409]

sesgia thank you...I’m going fishing this Saturday that’s why im asking for help.... hahahaha!! Thanks again homie.. god bless

[@mikestacklebox]

Looks good... just need Rice and Tomatoes 🍅

[@AG-cf4hd]

Is Surfperch safe to eat that came from San Mateo Coast and Pacific Ocean?

[@mikeymiiiike9880]

Dig your feet into the sand as the tide is pulling brother. Like you doing the twist. Catch waaaaaay more San crabs

[@nasiasteel9105]

For the longest time I was thinking that you were on the East Coast. I grew up in California and never caught a Perch caught everything else

[@royjackson8519]

What state are you in just moved to Oregon I want to catch some striped bass

[@wilmerflores7353]

What hook sized you using ?

[@Ill23]

Lure weight on your odm rod? Thanks Jun

[@gilberttorres3498]

When is the best time, of the year, to target perch?

[@surfninjafishing8297]

Twin powe or vr150? I'm looking for a new surf real.

[@sqhunter65]

hey what kinda rod is that ,and where do you find them.

[@MoreThanFishing]

ODM Frontier X 9’6” go to their website www.odmrods.com

[@tlsmoke23]

Which is better Sand perch or porgy?

[@ayongjrcapina3869]

It seems that most of the Filipinos know how to catch perch tku for the info, keep it pinoy

[@peterbedford2610]

Crabs better than a calissa?

[@ethanyang692]

Perch are really good.

[@sesgia]

fish is tasty!

[@limirl]

worst tasting fish ever, soft and mushy. they also put up a lousy fight unless you are using ultra light gear.

[@sesgia]

better tasty than bat ray

[@cgreg6474]

Seems to me a fish finder rig is very similiar to a carolina rig ?! What's the difference ?

[@ARCSTREAMS]

second fish did not look like it had bars just yellowish possibly different kind or hybrid?

[@eugenegress5896]

You can Just use a bait needle, and a small Treble... pulling it back to rest against that area of crab , they just try to nip off. They look to be bait stealers, just like fresh water perch.

[@runninassassin9147]

Should of took the scales off my man. Also a little crunchy there but awesome video. I miss surf fishing been 2 years

[@MoreThanFishing]

Robert Beserra I did remove the scales. Thanks for watching!

[@FrankyGomez-y1t]
