Captain Dave me and my buddies swear by your advice. The only time we didn’t catch fish, we didn’t follow your advice and we sucked at fishin. We appreciate your knowledge brother
Thank U
Amazing handle
Thanks 👍
Cant wait to use my surface iron this year for the Yellowtails! Hope the local ones come back close enough for us socal fishermans😁🙏
Good luck!
Thank you very much for your teaching and have a great day
Thank you too
Great video Dave thanks for your advice! 🤙🏻
No problem 👍
Is that a Cavalla 12ii? It looks like a good reel. Thanks for your advice on not striking a "dog-boning" take but rather retrieving faster. I caught a lot of 40"-50" YT and dorado on my last trip, but I missed a good number of strikes by making that mistake.
you are welcome
Heck yeah cap! Good stuff your putting out, I subscribed to your channel one of the best investments ive made in a while, forsure beats the 20 lures i just bought
Welcome aboard!
Nice rod Dave...
Thank you!
I notice that slight knee dip on the crest of the cast. A little more velocity that way?
yes

Great videos man. Have a question if you don’t mind. All my ocean fishing has been central coast rock fishing. Next season I want to venture south for slightly bigger. Would like to do some overnight trips maybe even a 3 day. I only have a Diawa Lexa 400 and the smaller 300. Is that going to be to undersized for YT and Dorado? I have 65lb braid with 40lb mono but would be easy to up the top shot. Thanks man.
I think for yellowtail and dorado (and even yellowfin tuna) the 400 will work perfect. If you use a 20-30 lb flouro leader with that you will do well as long as you have your drag set right.
YES THE 400 will be fine
Now we just need the SoCal water to warm up and bring the cows
Yep
thanks
Do you prefer a star drag with cast control or 2 speed with cast control to cast jigs? Thinking of getting the Avet mxl raptor with cast control
I am OKUMA FAN
I like the star drag always
better for everything I do.
Cortez 10
Tessro 10
those are what I would use Avet is ok
Important wind faster when hit! Very important point!
Thanks
man i want that rod ...super sick!
Ahoy Captain, you indicate that the Tady 45 Wounded soldier weighs less than an ounce. I have been looking for that specific Tady 45 Wounded soldier but the lightest i've seen them are 2.9oz. Can you confirm it is LESS THAN AN OUNCE?.. If so, Do you know any shop who carries them? Thanks in advance.
its is 2.9
sorry my bad I got to excited
What rod and handle style is that?
it is no longer a thing
how about live bait? Do you swing?
for sure
Finally got serious about fishing, got the rods and reels... catching some stuff, but not the tuna yet. I have been doing it "wrong"! August/2020 got used boat and going out of Shelter Island this weekend to use your input regarding hooks, bait, etc. I look forward to watching your next videos. Thanks for your sharing this valuable input!!! Now where to go in Ocean...?

Can you make a slider rig tutorial for yellowtail fishing live bait?
Its on my website
Fishing the wrong rod & reel!! You need a jig stick 9Ft or 10 Ft rod but also a star drag reel.
is that right
Master the jig and catch some pigs. Sooooo nice.
Rule #1 don't use a 2 speed
Thanks for letting us know.
Why not?
Lot easier to do with a 8’+ rod and a star drag reel
what is?
@@YourSaltwaterGuide casting a surface iron
@@fvaldez714 Maybe But then I can not show off my grip.
