Surf Perch Fishing Oregon's North Coast - Redtail Surfperch Fishing

[@sejnitram]

Welcome back dude! You’ve been missed! Thanks as always for making these vids. Looking forward to seeing more new ones💪

[@thomassmestead2801]

About to embark on my first surf perch 'safari' out to the S.W. Washington Coast. Hopefully, the weather is cooperative for 4-5 days. Camp where I can, since I live about 200 miles from there. Just wanted to say that you, and PK, on you tube have inspired this madness. Packing three rods, one a "Rockaway" 11', a 10 1/2 ' SST, and my old standby, an 'ug stick' I use for salmon on the Skagit. On previous trips to the coast, have seen people surf fishing, and always been curious about it. Gonna DO it.

[@boxmuncher69]

Any luck?

[@williamwilliam6714]

Central to North coast of Oregon, gonna be my new digs. Life issues, and a big motorhome, with time on my hands.. should be the order of the day. Surf fishing is a must !

[@markroth9827]

Surf perch and razor clams go together like peas and carrots. Thank you for your video.

[@timkeagy4094]

Hey Nick, nice to see you again. I use the camo also when I surf fish here, Ventura County shores. You got some nice fish there. I like that pole and nice reel also. Looking forward to more vids. See ya then.

[@justincostner5641]

Great video!! Welcome back 😊

[@jeromemayer8904]

Excellent videos bro. I have the same okuma reel I love it for sure fishing. I have gone to long Beach Washington in the past ,but definitely want to try some oregon spots since I'm from oregon!

[@AnglingAddictsPNW]

Thank you! I haven’t been to Long Beach forever. I’ve been wanting to go back up there but it’s easier staying on our coast sometimes lol.

[@Fishin-mission1]

I'm gonna have to go try this at long Beach. Looks like fun for sure! Glad to hear there's more epic content to come!

[@ShoreLineBuilds]

been watching a bunch of your videos as im trying to get back into rock fishing thanks for your tips cant wait to try them out . im up here on the california mendocino coast im hoping to see some red tail next month!

[@davidamato3690]

Welcome back brother!

[@anthonygoodrich8503]

Great vid, spent a lot of weekends in Garibaldi , fishing the inner reefs and rock piles , lost a huge halibut drifting the flats off Manzanita. Looking forward to chasing surf perch, I have the same rod/reel set up, just need to get after it. Tight Lines, Keep Casting!! 👍😎

[@timschwarze4842]

Way to go, Nick.

[@eugenegordin]

Missed your vids, bud! Keep it up!

[@CALICOAST805fishermanlopez76]

Nice catch Bro. I miss living near the coast. Use to go fishing all the time. Really enjoy your videos.

[@ftd224]

Long Beach more productive than N end of peninsula?

[@marcusriley4105]

I hope all is well and your back at it,just a thought next time out grab a clam bag and put on your side it keeps you fish'in more and just watch the surf as always. Remember tight lines till next time.

[@jawsua32]

One tip, the small silvers love the gulp sandworms. Clam, chunks of grocery store shrimp, or sand shrimp will get the big red tails.

[@boxmuncher69]

Any tips on keeping the sand shrimp on the hook while casting? Lmao. We just tried rockaway this weekend with no luck.

[@jawsua32]

@@boxmuncher69 Magic or spider thread. I prefer spider thread

[@boxmuncher69]

@@jawsua32 and wrapping that around the bait?

[@jawsua32]

@@boxmuncher69 Yeah, after you threaded shrimp on the hook. 10 or so wraps is all you need.

[@boxmuncher69]

@@jawsua32 thanks for the tip bro!

[@paulschmidt1247]

Awesom video, I grew up fishing for surf perch on the Oregon coast. Hope you slayed the razor clams as well.

[@coreyarendt7289]

The surf perch fishing is fun to hook into and they are are so good to eat And if you get in the right area area you could limit out real quick

[@wilsonflanders878]

Have you ever tried a 1/6 rooster tail without the blade with that setup?also store bought prawns meat from the grocery store!great video!keep them coming!!

[@sergeybeast]

HES ALIVE!!

[@davidmays3333]

Glad to see your back!!! Great job as always

[@anthonyheckard8041]

A lot of Silvers! The bigger Redtails are generally out further.

[@boosalith2246]

No matter how matter times I've tried using the gulp worms , I haven't had any luck. Sand shrimps and razor clams always seem to work for me.

[@equinsuocha1213]

I have the same rod and the reel that’s meant to go with it, they’re great for surf fishing.

[@Bo-gi8zw]

Great video! Man do notice how much those gulp sand worms reek like crazy? I lost one and had to tear stuff apart to find it lol.

[@wayneclarke1727]

So tell me where your fishing bro! I'm in Medford Oregon... love fishing! What Beach! Give it up bro 😜 I need to get my clam and fish on...Spill bro!

[@danm1319]

I've only ever caught jetty perch! I've caught crabs walking around out there tho

[@josiahbenitez9739]

Have you ever fished Arcadia beach I'm goin surf perch fishing there today just too see lmao any where near rockaway you fish too? All I do is fish and when I'm not fishing I'm crabbing on them big ass slammer boats🤣💯🤘

[@jamesskidmore5776]

Nice Oregon barred perch

[@Condor1970]

I was planning on doing some surf perch fishing when I go razor clamming. Wouldn't the best time to fish, is do it after the clam dig, when the tide starts coming in?

[@AnglingAddictsPNW]

The good thing about fishing for surfperch is that it’s basically an all day fishery. The fish are always there, but where you should cast and how far depends on the tide, conditions, sandbars, troughs, etc. Most do prefer an incoming tide though, and it seems pretty common that 2hrs before high tide through 2hrs after the tide change is what most prefer

[@Condor1970]

@@AnglingAddictsPNW... Thanks. It's good to know I don't have to wait arou d 5hrs after the dig to get decent hits.

[@steveocallaghan1620]

how deep is the water where you are standing? I tried surf fishing the other day and it felt really weird with the sand moving out from under my feet. I didn't feel comfortable wading out past my high calf area

[@JaymeDeeRAV]

Hey man what size weight do you use to keep it in there, but not ridiculously dragging? P.s. been binging your videos for the last week! Thanks for the awesome content!

[@AnglingAddictsPNW]

Haha that's awesome! I'm glad you've been enjoying the videos, thanks for binge watching them :) My go-to is a 2oz pyramid sinker. It seems to work in most conditions unless there is a strong current coming from the side, then it will drag or roll. It's not often i go to a 3oz but sometimes its necessary.

[@F-N-C]

Nice!

[@dloren2010]

Where is this spot I can drive on the beach brother? Love your videos by the way!

[@victora3462]

Might have missed this in the video but what pound weight and what pound line are you using?

[@danm1319]

Guess who's back? Back again..

[@lorenramsey5951]

I like that rod, is it 1pc or 2?

[@AnglingAddictsPNW]

I like it as well.. It's a 2pc thankfully lol... otherwise i think it'd be a headache to deal with. The Okuma Rockaway and Cedros are my go-to rods for surf fishing

[@F-N-C]

Would love to do some surf perch fishing with you. If your ever in the Florence area let me know.

[@debatebore1057]

What a timely video, thanks! My youngest boy and I want to try this surf perch fishing thang and I always wondered about trying it there at Sunset since we spend a lot of time driving on the beach there. Question: Are waders required? Sort of look like it. Question 2: Are the fish just always in that whitewater or something? Thanks, again, for the timely video.

[@shawnrobinson107]

Waders are definitely helpful with getting out to the fish without getting pneumonia Perch are feeding in the surf line during a rising tide.

[@JigginwithG]

Hell yeah glad your back! I started up my channel finally! Let’s go fish and give a follow maybe my dude 😎 I fish sunset beach every other weekend, went yesterday it was a SLAY fest on razors. 🎣🐟 love your videos much love.

Hot Chow !

[@livingadventure7060]

Did I meet you at post 5 last Saturday?

[@AnglingAddictsPNW]

It's not very often that i fish during the weekend. I was out there the last couple of weeks but not during the weekend

[@christianbarcinas694]

Hey there, where in the coast is this?

[@AnglingAddictsPNW]

North Coast, Seaside Area

[@brandenniemi1469]

[@asully70]

Was this near seaside/gearhardt?

[@richmondliving]

Yeah, the beach is in the video's description.

[@asully70]

@@richmondliving ahh good eye, I never have much luck there with perch, just little ones. Only tried a few times, but never hooked a red tail there. Always shiners, starry flounder or sculpin. I know they are there though, seen others do ok at times.

[@richmondliving]

@@asully70 Same, I've gotten a few silvers and a few very small red tails. They are def there just gotta be there at the right time I guess haha. I was camping at Cape Lookout last week and they were there. The water was a bit rowdy though.

Yeah, you posted a vid that had a lady in in it and the writing was on the wall homie
