  • Fishing out of Pokai Bay on Oahu. I hooked into this 54lb shibi in 158ft of water at 11am. The fight lasted 1:12 minutes, 45 of which was guessing what I had hooked into. It is my personal best shibi. I had to borrow a kage, and so now I will carry my own for situations like this.

    yo bruv for the millionth time what model of the ugly stick tiger are u using?

    • @FlyingFish_TV
      @FlyingFish_TV  5 років тому +20

      Hey man. I strive to comment on all posts asking questions. Just today this is second post asking which ugly stik I use. It is the tiger elite spin jigging rod 6’6” medium heavy action. I have added this information to the description section of all new videos. I am not sure if people get any notification of my responses. Do me a favor and let me know if you are notified of this response. Thank you.

      is it way to stiff to cast lures as well ?

    • @FlyingFish_TV
      @FlyingFish_TV  5 років тому +5

      I would say it is too short to cast lures. Unless you’re throwing big poppers or stick baits. On a kayak you generally want shorter rods so you can reach your rod tip (without putting your reel in the water) to sort out problems.

    Awesome video man!! love your editing style and of course the action you are getting. I live on maui and have always been a spearo but getting into the yak world when no dive buddy. Are you a big believer in wire/ thin cable so no matter what hits it you are good? I used to just use heavier mono leader but kept getting the onos snipping the line off. what size hook do you use for cacthing tuna?? I appreciate the insight and if you get over to maui lets fish!

    • @FlyingFish_TV
      @FlyingFish_TV  5 років тому +3

      Thanks Brandon! I always start out trips using 40lb mono, if I get cut off by an ono then i'll go to a wire set up. I use 40lb single strand wire with a stinger live bait hook. In my most recent video I show the rig in the beginning. I just have one rod always set up with wire for quick deployment. I just try to make all of my rigs small and as stealthy as possible. I try to match my hooks to the size of my baits, which generally means a 4/0 to 6/0 live bait hook. I like the Gamugatsu live bait hooks. I just caught another 60lb yellow fin tuna using a 5/0 live bait hook. I used to use the 7/0s but now think they are too big. Thanks for you questions, feel free to ask more.

      @TheMauiForce 5 років тому

      Flying Fish TV thanks for the reply! I agree with you on the smaller hook size. I use the website tidesforfishing for a lot of information but you mentioned in a video the best bite times, how do you determine that? Have you ever used a underwater light at night to help you get bait?

    • @FlyingFish_TV
      @FlyingFish_TV  5 років тому +1

      TheMauiForce I use a similar website
      www.fishingreminder.com/US/charts/fishing_times/Barbers_Point_Housing
      I would set it to a location close to where you fish. It gives the information for the day (major&minor fishing times, moon rise and set, and sunrise/sunset). If you scroll towards the bottom of the page it gives a 7 day forecast.

      This might have been on my old setup. But now I have power pro braid 80lb backing to 150ft of 65lb braid via a double uni knot. Then an FG knot to 50ft of fluorocarbon or mono 40lb leader. I like power pro, it has held up well. I need to replace it soon. I would go with a brand that has the smallest diameter for its strength (less drag).

      Typically 1-2 miles. The furthest about 5 miles offshore. Longest trip was 20 miles

      I tried kayak fishing a couple of weeks ago off the coast of North Carolina. Caught a bunch of Spanish macks. Had a great time, keep the videos coming
