  • I went on a solo fishing trip on my 22 foot Seaswirl Striper boat in search of Bluefin Tuna while trolling the Nomad Madmacs. The tuna didn't want to bite, but I was able to find some good California Yellowtail fishing action on a kelp paddy that I found. I fished it by myself until a couple of boats noticed I was hooking up and came over to join in on the fun. The fish were biting flylined sardines on a circle hook using 25 pound test.
    The 2023 San Diego fishing scene is already heating up and it's just getting started! Can't wait to see what the rest of the season has in store for us.

    Great video bro! You're on fire. Madmacs bluefin last week and kelp paddy yellowtail this week. You're a beast. Fishing hard is paying off. Great work. Would love to do a collab vid chasing big bluefin after I get back from Baja. Keep doing what you're doing. I love it. Tight lines my man.

      Thanks man! Lets make it happen! I'm loving the Baja videos you got going on. Headed to Oregon this weekend, and busy the next, but if the fish and weather line up I'll hit you up very soon.

    love that your out there solo having a blast! i personally dislike the other boat pulling up to your school in order to find fish..... there's a whole ocean and they decided to stop on top of you to fish ...

    • @SDKook
      @SDKook  Рік тому +1

      Thanks! Yeah, I saw them coming from a ways out , which is why I was in a hurry to get that second one on the boat haha. I knew they saw me bendo and it was just a matter of time. Ended up being 4 boats on it in a matter of 15 minutes, and the bite died. They way I look at it I had two on board, and everything else would've been a bonus at that point! But i agree, a patty with no boats in sight is ideal 😎

    god damn! i actually never went to deep sea and is thirsty for some deep sea fishing i might go this summer for it because i recently bought the gear for yellow tail and tunas. bro i just wish i can have my first time fishing with you. you seem like a great guy and experienced for deep sea.

      Get out there and try it man! Be careful though it's addictive. I'm still learning A LOT. Loslts of people with more experience than me but I highly suggest getting on some charters and make sure you chat with the deckhands. They know a ton of tricks its how I leaned.

    What you need is learn to fly a drone to spot fish from the air, so you don't burn up a lot of fuel.
