  • Myself, Taku from ‪@OutdoorChefLife‬ and Ensei hopped on a long range charter out of San Diego in search of the prestigious Bluefin Tuna. This is the longest I have ever been fishing out at sea. It felt like I was awake for three days straight but the results were EPIC!!!!

    Adam, thanks for taking the time and expense to fish our Socal waters! I love your content because you produce fishing videos, not catching videos. I always learn something when I watch. 😊😊
    (I bought a drag scale so I can set my drag at 33% of my lowest test line.)

    Nice video. I fished a 1.5 day trip on the Aztec last week and got two Bluefin, with the biggest at about 130 pounds. The potential quality of fish you can get within one day range in the last few years is unprecedented. Good to see that you guys connected.

    Next you must do a 3 day long range trip. Gorgeous Bluefin. I worked as a deckhand out of Newport Beach, CA. To see the same fish, but more and bigger on a 3 day trip into Mexican waters was great. Same effect if you go to the outer channel islands. Have you caught a Yellowtail yet? ...they fight hard as well. Go again!

I loved this video, I hope you do another trip again so i can watch lol. Maybe do a 8 day on one of the long range sportfishers like the Independence, Intrepid, Excel, Red Rooster 3 and the rest of the amazing boats down there. Lol, living through you now. I can't afford to make a trip down anymore lol.

    Pacifica sportfishing actually offers more limited load tuna trips where they limit the number of anglers to just 22 vs 30+ Penn, Izorline and Phenix rods also sponsor trips with this operation . Makes a big difference with quality sponsor and boat with limited anglers

    Probably the reason Bro is when you let him run with that bait that fish is throating that bait. Tuna inhales the bait try wait a couple sec then set lock down and let him tighten up on to make that circle hook work better for you and you might get less cut off on that line just a thought. Tight lines bro!

    Glad you guys did well on your trip. It looks like your drag was way too tight on the fly line. Even if you know what you’re doing it always a good idea to have the deck hand check your drag. They often go lighter than usual to tire them out then can crank up a bit at the end.

    Congrats! from NorCal as well. been on a few of these trips the past years. went earlier this season on a 2-day, had lots of action/bites/hookups, but none onto the boat for me. These trips can be thrilling (and of course, exhausting) even without bringing home a fish. Extra thrilling when you do get one or more. One item I probably analyze / fuss over way too much are the connections. What knots did you use? Braid to mono/floro, leader to hook or jig, etc.?

    Never travel south on Friday’s…
    Never travel north on Sunday’s…
    Every Mexican from O.C. To Canada is going home for the weekend/Friday and back to work on Sunday
    I’ve learned to top shot your braid with at least 25’ and add a 1-2’ leader of floro…
    Minimum 80 pounds floro…
    The top shot is the suggested set up per boat…
    Example…
    Mainline 30# braid
    Top shot suggested setup test
    Leader of fluorocarbon 80 pounds or more depending on the fish but bluefin minimum 80

    If your line is frayed where it breaks off then it’s cuz you got chewed off from letting them eat it too long. Honestly, I think it’s cuz your drag is too tight considering that you’re getting broken off that early off the first run. Make sure you’re setting it 25-30% or your line rating (ex. 7-9lbs of drag if you’re fishing 30lb line). Also tie good knots, can’t go wrong with the SD jam and re-tie after each fish.

      yes, the patch works best but put it on 12 hours before. Get it in your system and working before the trip begins. Patches are good for 3 days so on a 2 1/2 day or less, 12 hours ahead is perfect.
