    If I live to be a hundred, I’ll never beat the thrill of fighting these gorgeous denizens on light tackle….gotta get back out there soon!

      Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! That’s a super fun fishery for sure. It’s been a few years, I probably need to get back out there soon!

    Dorado?!! In June?!! In San Diego?!!! Say it ain’t so! Looks like another great season in store for So Cal! Awesome video! Sub’d to the channel.

      Thanks for subbing! Glad you enjoy our work. This was shot in August 2015, so I hate to say it ain't so.... but I've never fished out of San Diego in June. But you can bet by August the fishing in SoCol will once again be off the hook!

    Stunning footage and amazing fish😨. I mean I love going after big wild browns but those tuna have about quadruple the power of a 20 inch brown or wild bow 😂😂😂. Amazing video, look forward to the next one!🎣🐟💦

    • @GilbertRowley
      @GilbertRowley  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks so much! They are amazing fish, and you’ll love chasing them when you get the chance! Bows and browns have a special place in my heart since I’m primarily a trout guy, but every once in a while it’s great to feel the PULL!

    What knots were you using to connect the backing to fly line? Also the fly line to leader? Chasing them in November so I want to be dialed!

    • @GilbertRowley
      @GilbertRowley  Рік тому

      Awesome, I'm super excited for you! It was Captain Mark Martin who had the knowledge, and it's been just long enough that I actually can't remember. You can reach out to him, he still runs a charter out of San Diego. Look up Capt. Mark Martin on Instagram and I'm sure he'd be happy to answer your questions. Thanks!

      Correct, we shot this in 2015. Each year the tuna and dorado fishing in SoCal is fantastic, but in 2015 it was particularly good!
