Sight Fishing for Halibut - Fish Out of Water!

[@jaelee125]

Is there a reason why you use a heavier line for your leader? If it gets caught on something, wouldn't you have to cut your main line?

[@surffishinginsocal]

I use it because I fish really rocky areas and when a fish pulls me into sharp areas, my like can withstand it better. I’ve never actually snagged to the point that I need to cut my line while using weedless seimbaits but yes theoretically tha would be the case

[@MrJoeylisto]

Awsome bro, great job!

[@surffishinginsocal]

Thank you!

[@CAyellowtail]

great day

[@surffishinginsocal]

Fantastic!

[@ronj9003]

Thats not sight casting for halibut. LeTs GoOo!! hurrr😂😂😂

[@surffishinginsocal]

Literally no idea what you’re trying to say… hali jumps > see hali > cast at hali > hook up and catch hali we saw. If that’s not aight casting I’d love to know what is.

Looked like a great day of fishing. Your buddy was so excited that I suggeste he lays off the redbull some. Have a great day 🌤 🐟🎣

[@surffishinginsocal]

[@caseyschuster6897]

Great video dude ! Killin’ it! I wish I had your buddies energy! Ha!

[@surffishinginsocal]

I do too😂😂😂 he made the day what it was

[@caseyschuster6897]

Hey man I ordered those swim baits on Amazon . I noticed that there’s weight at the top of that hook in the video. Are you sure that’s the same jig head as the link you provided on bass pro shops? Thanks 😎

[@surffishinginsocal]

@@caseyschuster6897 the swimbait is separate from the hook. The stuff linked in the video description is exactly what I used.

[@surffishinginsocal]

@@caseyschuster6897 apologies….. that’s actually the hook I used the last two days that I caught some white seabass on. This was a few weeks ago and I was actually using this hook: bassproshops.vzck.net/n16xyM Same exact design, but I like the one that was previously linked in the description better. I just changed it but will be writing an article about all of them soon.

[@caseyschuster6897]

Thanks buddy sorry one more thing what size and weight on that hook?

[@NowIFish]

That's unbelievable! Fortunately the camera was rolling. Good Job Nick!

[@surffishinginsocal]

I know! Hahahaha.

[@surffishinginsocal]

Thank you!

[@TEHExoticWoods]

I need to that “OMG I got the doormat!” as my ringtone

[@surffishinginsocal]

I may look into making the mine as well😂😂😂

[@HouseHunterLA]

His screaming completes the video.

[@surffishinginsocal]

It really does tho😂

[@guillermoguerra869]

Looks like you guys found the honey hole….👍🤙

[@surffishinginsocal]

Once the water temp took that recent jump, we’ve started getting on them in 3 separate spots already so they’re showing up for sure.

[@nickcarlson5323]

What beach and time of day?

[@surffishinginsocal]

Can’t tell you everything. I’d recommend trying anything and everything until it works. Put the time in, explore your local beaches, get skunked and keep going until you gain a little confidence. Take that confidence and put your efforts there as you continue to try new things and just keep going. With time and effort you’ll be rewarded.

[@kqc8224]

Ya gotta earn it, is what he’s sayin’. Time on the water, sweat, tears and solid effort end up producing, the prize will be more rewarding.

[@johhff2730]

I recommend trying corn or bread under a bobber with a spiderman fishing rod combo. you will have more success

[@werftv4580]

hahahaha.. I might know these people...

[@surffishinginsocal]

😂😂😂 I believe you do
