As long as you're here, omg, you're always healthy, omg

[@jefflingle8795]

Vic. Love videos. I’m in Ca. Cuda is excellent. Fillet leave skin on. Eat first day or mushy. Bleed them too. Marinate in teriyaki. Cook on grill start flesh first then over to skin to finish. Use spatula lift right off skin. Flip onto a plate flesh down use fork with spatula pullout blood line. Flip back over onto rice. Little teriyaki baste on top.

Victor humble great fisherman and great chef god bless u brother

[@adamklingerman8806]

Once again another great Cali video, some of my favorites thus far. I was suggesting on Brooks channel you guys should invite Adam and the boys to do some fishing in your splashing grounds and make it a annual thing.

[@fluentfishing]

Sign us up Viktor! haha

[@adamklingerman8806]

@@fluentfishing I know right, their is something spiritual about this dynamic that I can't quite put my finger on, but it feels right. God bless you all. O by the way Victor will you please finally marry your better half, that's when the journey truly begins and its totally worth it and I know you won't regret it. Peace, love and tight lines, love you guys.

Lol🤣 definitely grabbed my attention 😉

[@thesolucian4]

The title has since been changed for some reason.

[@Boonicat71]

@@LongIslandLethals The original title was meant for the Sheephead but this video is about the barracuda, so he had to change it accordingly

[@thesolucian4]

@@Boonicat71 it's probably likely due to the KZbin algorithm. The current views that this video has is really low compared to his other videos.

Barracuda meat is underrated. It’s really good. Just smaller ones are better due to high mercury in other ones

Two Harbors is a much different experience from Avalon. Very beautiful there.

Thank you Victor and your lady for all of these videos, my hometown is San Diego, Cali. Seeing all these SoCal videos makes me miss my hometown with a warm heart feeling, now that I've been living in Minnesota the last 4 years+. Thanks again

[@Pungwolju-fishing]

Great fishing.. You're good at handling fish.

[@sugarsnap7883]

Hi Victor, a little off subject, .. however, have you had a chance to read about the Klamath River Dam removal project ? There is also one already done for a Washington River that is a few years into full recovery, awesome projects to recover massive King And Coho fisheries. After the Dams are removed there are still some challenges.

[@sugarsnap7883]

Elwha Dam removal, Washington.

Hey vik I'm waiting for that collaboration with taku dude .what's up?

[@birdlaw1019]

Cuda tastes great! It's like dark chicken meat, meets the flaky white flesh of a grouper.

[@eddieherman8199]

Looks like some awesome camping

[@tlclabradorretrievers1549]

[@09depredador]

You know when someone loves fish/fishing when they catch a barracuda and gets excited

[@simongrefstad7410]

Barracudas are cool as hell, no wonder he is excited.

[@paultaylor3517]

seaweed cook up fish xo

[@myparadiseonbantayanisland9030]

You guys really need to scuba dive the kelp beds it is fantastic!!! You will need a 7mm wetsuit (not a 5mm) it is freezing cold below the thermocline😀

[@Boonicat71]

Pacific Bonito are closer related to pacific mackerel and dogtooth tuna. What people call Bonita on the east coast are more like true tunas. Bonito have white meat, amazing flavor and not as bloody

[@Jason-dg5we]

Im thinking about going to those tent cabins how was it, cold or nice?

[@willisgemutlich2608]

can't wait to see what you do with the sheephead. my recommendation: stuff it with rosemary and lemons, top it with lemons, surround it with diced veggies, and bake it. the rosemary should be grabbed from a neighbor with sticks on to hold the belly open, and the meat melts in your mouth like butter. delicious fish, one of my local favorites. you might think of using some kind of garlic too, if you're into that. ;)

[@Gorfo978]

Poor man's lobster!

[@Gorfo978]

Barracuda is definitely stinky and gamey but if you treat it right it will be delicious! Don't rinse with freshwater, take the skin off and bloodline as well! Super delicious as ceviche! Sculpin is even MORE delicious in ceviche too! Tell the guys to take you out for sculpin to make as ceviche! There are spots out there where they have a bundle of them! They were catching hundreds of barracuda and sculpin everyday for like 2 to 3 months straight!

[@BigBaitsBigFish]

Any word on how U booked ur stay in thoes tents I use to stay there in Avalon for like two months at a time on a boat but now I’m older so try my wife and kids I’d love to here how u booked thoes tents looks fun as hell plz let me know

[@BigBaitsBigFish]

@Theodore Wilton it is yet there over here 🤷‍♂️ let that sink in lol

[@BigBaitsBigFish]

@Theodore Wilton we have good fishing in ca some better then others Florida has better fishing then ca that’s way better in my opinion but if I could show picks to Vic of the halibut I fish for I’d blow his mind but I really don’t care what he thinks of us in ca I wanted to know how he camped in thoes tents if he had a link or something lol

Why does Dylan remind me of juno ryan??

[@jdub4662]

make ceviche with barracuda, but my fav is with bft omg its heaven

[@adamsadventures9919]

Brooky’s the best!

[@cloaker7237]

From what I’ve heard, barracuda aren’t considered trash fish - I hear they’re quite tasty. The reason people don’t eat them around here is that they have loads of mercury - especially the ones surrounding LA

[@cloaker7237]

Same thing with Leopard sharks. Quite tasty (so I hear), but you can only have like 1 fillet every few days or else you risk heavy metal poisoning

[@Oldsport216]

Dillon is a natural

[@sharky5570]

Yo victor great video, any recommendations for a charter out of fort Myers Florida?

[@kateskrmetta2022]

I wanna know why you do trash fish catch and cooks like with Bonita then say it’s like any other tuna and when you catch them you use them for bait or throw them back. I believe you that it’s good I’m just curious why you don’t keep them often

[@CaptCollier]

That mustache may be more impressive than the barracuda lol jk that was a unique looking cuda for sure. Thanks for sharing

[@gloffrey4968]

Barracuda is actually awesome! I was on vacation and barracudas were about the only thing I caught and they aren’t bad either

[@sugarsnap7883]

Never caught a Large Cuda on surface iron, till I used my 7' ft. Calstar black glass rod with Newell reel and 30. lb line. Used to use a bass rod with 10.lb. On half day or twighlite boats.

[@olivermartel7172]

Get something 8 ft or longer for using jigs. Once u get comfortable with 8 ft go to 9ft

[@sugarsnap7883]

@@olivermartel7172 , have it now, sort of. Thank You just the same. Seeker Black Steel 8ft cork tape handle, for 20lb. It's for lighter jigs, and that 7 footer with 30 Is a multi-purpose that can handle a heavier jig situation. I remember thinking it all out while working. I also have a 9ft. Turner's outdoorsman California Calico special heavy action with a non level wind Abu Garcia, that will probably be great. Thanks Oliver 🤙

[@brandyneedham4496]

If you ever do Santa Cruz island out of Ventura u should try fishing for rockfish a good spot for them is between anacapa and Santa Cruz right out of the no fishing boundery went there Oct. 2 for a few nights on my boat and caught lots of em

What rod do you use? Its really nice

[@ramontorres77]

Dylan is the Cali version of Ryan Morie. lol Strong work fellas

[@ScheidenMc]

Barracuda tastes amazing. Cant believe they caught it their whole life and never ate it. Its one of the best eating fish imo

[@cloaker7237]

Everyone I talk to says they taste amazing. The only reason people don’t eat them (around LA at least) is because they’ve got massive amounts of mercury in them. Same story with fish like Leopard Shark

A bit wild with the title vik

you can have 5 hooks in cali on an aRig, surprised that capt didnt know that.

Do a catch and cook on google eye its very popular here in Hawaii.

You should really do a San Diego bonefish, yes bonefish we have em here as well, episode. South End of San Diego Bay, using ghost shrimp during jan/feb. Tons of em. No limit on em here lool.

[@divebarquin]

6:28 keep those fingers away from the Cuda, or you will lose em.., is my advise

them alabama rigs work wonders. First time I caught a fish on one was a 1.5lb large mouth AND a 2lb large mouth on the alabama river

Victor, could you maybe tell me why you always leave the guts in the fish after catching it and during transport? I always remove those as quick as possible to prevent contamination of the flesh by leaking/ripped guts inside the fish. Thanks!

I live in the fishing capitol of western U.S.A. San Diego Ca. and have caught many slimers ( barracuda ) in my time, and they are some of the tastiest fish I've eaten, big thick white fillets with no bones if you know how to fillet them. I don't think any fish is trash, we think of them as bait fish
