I’m a Yaker I ordered a decinder today just to be upnup thanks for the info. Wednesday & Thursday will be full on Yak Rok Kod days out of Prinston. Big bait dumb lings 👍
We have had some regulation changes in Texas as well. The really popular Jug Noodles, lots of those are illegal. Thanks for sharing and keep up the fun videos buddy, Nicely done on this video. Dale
If you have multiple people on boat, does each person need their own descender? Or is it OK to have one shared descender that is available to everyone?
Good question that my buddies were also asking me... I believe it is 1 descender per boat. Regardless, I'm always going to bring mine in my fish bag and have it available.
I see regulations on the site for INSHORE which is less than 120 feet. What about deeper than 120 like much of the waters off Monterey are? Any ideas on that?
@@diehardfishingshorts8623 Hey Adam. I was actually referring to being able to fish in depths between 20 and 50 fathoms. It looks like it is illegal this year to fish between 120 and 300 feet deep in places like Monterey.
I saw that this was a proposed regulation and I was wondering if it was going to be for inshore. I was hoping they were going to make it just for the deep fishing later in the season. Doesn't make a lot of sense for kayak fisherman. I'm glad I picked one up last season just in case.
There are large chemical dump sites between rpv and catalina, where the canisters are degraded and releasing ddt. How are limits going to help if there’s chemicals in the water killing them off

@@al0324 That is not correct. Miles from shore is not the determining factor but rather depth. They are trying to rebuild the shelf between 20 and 50 fathoms without overfishing either of those as well. Unless maybe you can share where you saw something related to the 9 miles from shore you mention. Trying to keep it legal of course.
@@tho464 i replied a few timse but it seems like YT is flagging the links. but you're correct. i mixed it up a little. I read it off of "fishing the northcoast" website about CFGC new rules regarding inshore vs offshore and depth: Jan. 1- Mar. 31: Closed Apr. 1 - Apr. 30: 50 fathoms offshore only fishery May 1 - Sept. 30: 20 fathoms inshore fishery Oct. 1 - Oct. 31: 50 fathoms offshore only fishery Nov. 1 - Nov. 30: 20 fathoms inshore only fishery Dec. 1 - Dec. 31: 50 fathoms offshore only fishery i stumbled onto a fishing website that defined inshore/offshore, but its not California fishngame so that's not the right source.
As a scuba diver it’s pretty sad, I used to see hundreds of fish when diving around SoCal, now it’s like a ghost town.
It’s just like the tax code they’ve got to make it as confusing as possible by design so they have the option to fine the maximum number of people

We’re at in TX.
@@deanbloyer5745 East Texas, almost to to Shreveport, so very close Caddo Lake.
that's nt true you do not need that.

The more regulations they make up the more revenue they generate
Don't get fined and don't get finned.
will a homemade descending device be legal u think?
Is Santacruz and Monterey the bay area?
Is this open for boaters and is a descending device required for each person on board?
I believe it is just one per vessel.

I believe the descender is required regardless of depth.

Descending devices have been a requirment in oregon ocean waters for several years
Nice! California is just now catching on
The Oregon department of fish and wildlife will mail you one for free with species cards. I live in California and they sent me one
Just checked and looks like they ended the program after 5 years. Dang.

Thanks for the heads up Adam. ✌️😎🎣
You bet!

Thank you very much for taking the time to explain, for those of us who are fishing in a cayack for the first time, the information is very valuable.
For us kayak fisherman, do we need to use it if we are fishing in a depth that is safe to release fish without the defending device?
Unfortunately it seems as though we will still be required to have onne
Good stuff Adam. See you OTW at some point I'm sure.
For sure!
Thanks for the video and saving us some time!!!
Glad to help!

from what i read, inshore is anything within 9 miles of land is 120 ft. offshore is 9 miles or more. offshore is 50 fathoms (300 ft).
