Great video. I liked the third out reference.

Went out yesterday and got limits with a crazy 39 inch on frozen herring. Super nice day!

[@AhmedMahmoud-lg6em]

You guys were on fire. Great job buddy 👍🏻

[@ChrisPfish2]

Thanks Ahmed!

[@joesho907]

Interesting to see how you do it down south. We do it a lot differently in Alaska.

[@fazekhan2042]

Hali-va catch Chris! You’re gonna have some nice fish taco’s for dinner! Love your videos man. Love to go fishing with you sometime.

Thank you I appreciate it!

Hey Chris does the alameda rock wall have a dock now these days?

[@DDbassin]

Nice fish!! Can you do a video on how you filet those guys?? tips?

[@ChrisPfish2]

I have in the past. I will do it again soon. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!

[@tblazy3463]

Nice limits looked fun! With salmon closed it might be a good year for you to target white sea bass.🐡😁

[@ChrisPfish2]

yeah i hope to get one this year, i will be doing a lot of drifting with anchovies in the open ocean come the summer months, go between spots for hali or them. fingers crossed. Thanks for watching

[@johnsommerhalder3911]

Who makes your rod holders

[@blkaudiofan]

I like how the gaff stuns and immobilizes them but it does kind of ruins two fillets so I net always

[@justcallmedyno8938]

He's talked about it before, he aims for the "belly" side to prevent ruining too much meat

[@ChrisPfish2]

most the times you gaff by the head/ or hopefully you can get the stomach. I dont cut off meat generally because of the gaff but dont get me wrong it does happen. Thanks for watching

[@justcallmedyno8938]

@@ChrisPfish2 Like Eric did? 🤣. That sucker was leaking

[@lubeinatube813]

@ChrisPfish2 Do you always leave the trap hook free floating? Or do you pin it to the bait when it's a larger bait? Im in socal and usually use 5-8 inch sardines.

[@ChrisPfish2]

yeah pretty much all other bait i would put the trap hook in it. With anchovies it makes them a lot weaker and they stop swimming. Thanks for watching

[@warreng8637]

Awesome video. When does crabbing opening up for you guys?

[@ChrisPfish2]

its currently open. generally first saturday in november till June 30th.

[@Fishing247-s2p]

Hey bro may I have the live bait shop address or name and where did you launch? Just never halibut fishing before lol thx

[@joshuahearn3555]

Thanks for the video brother! Question, what gaff you use? Thanks dude 🍻

[@ChrisPfish2]

Its promar. Link in description. I use the 4ft. Thanks for watching

[@mitchhendrickson4936]

How did the aerator work out? Last time I tried that the water foamed up real bad...

[@ChrisPfish2]

gotta wait for next video :)

[@mitchhendrickson4936]

@@ChrisPfish2 The anticipation is killing me!

[@paoloseiferle587]

Thanks for the video, Chris. Is there a specific reason when you go fishing for halibut with live bait (anchovies) versus trolling herring? Is it a seasonal issue or simply a choice on any giving day?

[@MrSpiller1]

Live anchovies were not available early in the season

[@ChrisPfish2]

live bait opened up last week of April. So before that you had no choice. I will be doing a combination of both. Thanks for watching

[@alldayfishing7798]

hi chris what kind of rod holder are those??

[@ChrisPfish2]

The rod holder is in the link in the description. If your talking about the arm extension, those are from reel custom boat works in stockton, ca. If you give them a call and ask for Jim, just tell him you saw them on my channel and he can give you all the info on them. Thanks for watching

My dad went out and smashed them butts hard on Monday he had 7 fish and 4 bass the 2 biggest butts were 29lbs and 31lbs and the smallest 27in all caught in frozen dead bait on the troll! The morning was misty and windy tho!

[@ronaldshum2361]

Try using a dual hose aquarium plug in pump. A lot stronger especially with that much bait

[@ChrisPfish2]

i had two pumps in there, one like the one your referring too. If you look again you will see three hoses. Thanks for watching

[@ronaldshum2361]

@@ChrisPfish2 Now I see it lol

[@matmit73]

Aren’t limits 3 per person?

[@ChrisPfish2]

we got 9.

[@ADVF800GS]

Went out this morning and took my father in law and it was a total bust, got one and got it right up to the boat then the hook pulled, very disappointing day.

[@familyfishkiller1062]

Good job guys you killed

[@ChrisPfish2]

Thanks Oleg!

[@Ray-rj52459]

Not only do you profit from the video but you get the benefit from having a meal I bet you continue fishing here but this won’t last you and your KZbin friends will end a good thing that took years to generate but you’ll know definitely next year !!! A true sportsman protects his meal ticket food for thought for you and your video freaks

[@jon4549549]

You need a hug brother!

[@ChrisPfish2]

I think you have it wrong if you think recreational/sport fisherman are the reason for decline in fish. I enjoy helping others learn how to fish. I just hope they take care of the fish & environment. As far as a meal ticket, i could use less food around me

[@JohnGarcia-ue5tf]

It's always the people who never catch nothing that say thing like this

[@charlesdavis4396]

That is why I do not use live bait. I've had the best catch with tray bait.

[@btha01982]

Halibut getting smash this season....SAD for the next 3 years

[@zachdennis7307]

You could argue it is good because of Covid kept people off the water in previous years
