    Chris, please wear your vest especially on those solo trips. I want you to make it back to your kids.

      Yeah after the sad story of Will not making it back in. That was an eye opener to everyone we need to be more safe out there. Over the course of my videos I sometimes have one on and sometimes not. Thinking back, it doesn't seem so much of a conscious decision to not wear it, just not thinking about it. After the recent tragedy it is on my mind like everyone else, I got my portable water proof radio attached to mine and ready for the next trip and I told myself your stupid to not have this on everytime you go solo. So thats the plan moving forward.

    That was fun, thank you Chris. I'm up here by Yosemite and my drive is washed out so I'm stuck at home so watching you getting all those nice crabs made my day. I think I have ond more Dungeness and a Rock left in the freezer. I may be able to get to the coast for another trip or two? Until then I'll keep watching you!

    Chris, in addition to using a pfd on solo trips like some of these other comments are saying, I would suggest one other thing. Please use your gaff when pulling up your nets. Doesn't matter how close your boat is to the water. One slip, and you'll be swimming for your life chasing your boat.

    Chris. Try putting some scent on your swimbaits. I use a product called HOT SAUCE. . Never fish my plastics without it. Works DINO. On the bass, halibut, and seabass down here in SO CAL. Try it. You'll definitely see an improvement in your bites, and you're fish count. Tight lines. SCOTT. !!

    Hey Chris, you can’t use a game fish for bait, you can get cited for that, I know from first hand expierence, got ticketed for over my limit with lingcod as I was using old carcasses for bait for crab in half moon bay, as we were fishing for more lings.

      @ChrisPfish2  2 роки тому

      The best hoop nets are from promar. I would look at the links I have in the description. "traps" are still closed this season. just drop the pots on sand, not rocks. Move them until you find them. Good luck

    Crab season coming, you still recommend these Promar XL HD's? Or is there something newer/better? Gonna be my first time crabbing so there's a lot to learn, rules, spots, trap/rope sizes, rope lengths, etc. I need a whole lesson from you just to get started lol

    • @ChrisPfish2
      @ChrisPfish2  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Alonso. The software is Wondershare Filmora. They have music on there. Music is tough. You can get license free from youtube or the editing software. You can find free unlicensed music on random websites but over time most those become copyright and you need to go back and change it out. Hope that helps, chris
