    16:50 -- Not very computer literate?! You run the best damn trout fishing channel on UA-cam, dude! 🥳
    One of your best videos too. Thanks for the tips.

    Whoa, glad to see u got a big jump in subscribers! I think just a week ago it was a 1/3 of that. The quality is showing, very cool to see the growth!
    I got to try sarl at least once every season😂. I skunked bad last year, hopefully I'll get something this season.
    Tight lines!

      Im really trying to improve a bit with each video and get more information out there. SARL is definitely a difficult mistress. Ive had lots of incredible days there but I have also skunked out there several times. But its one of only a few places local where you can get some trophy sized trout and I really like the challenge

    I have fished SARL for years. YEARS. I never knew about the talapia or gizzard chad. I knew about the sturgeon. My brother caught a 60 pounder on 2lb. line! but didn't know about those other fish

    • @SeaSpankerOutdoors

      Yeah there are quite a few types of fish in those waters. Since the water comes directly from the river bed system, who knows what else is in there

    Hi again! I just watched your video on how to set up the double drop shot. When you do the leader loop, do you have the swivel clip attached to the braid? So it goes braid with swivel clip, then just attach your pre-rigged drop shot on Fluro to the clip? Thanks again! I'm learning so much from your videos.

    • @SeaSpankerOutdoors
      @SeaSpankerOutdoors  11 місяців тому +1

      I have about a 5’ leader of 5lb RUNCL PowerFluoro attached to the braid with a double UNI knot, then a snap swivel or duo lock snap, then the dropshot rig but you can certainly can attach the snap directly to the braid as the dropshot rig is long enough the fish wont see the braid. I have just been doing the leader before the dropshot rig for so long its just habit at this point haha

    Great video. I am 15 minutes from santa ana lakes. I am putting a mini jig order together at GSF. Any chance i can get info on what you recommend for our lakes around southern cal. I have the i es you mentioned in this video on my list. Thanks

    • @SeaSpankerOutdoors
      @SeaSpankerOutdoors  2 місяці тому

      The best advice I can give first is GSF baits that work at several lakes is have a good variety of natural, lights, darks, and brights, as the fish change their minds daily on what they are gonna bite. That said for SoCal some of my favorites are ghost shrimp, big stick, el diablo, carmel apple, super shad, brown trout, bubble gum, gold pearl and brown, and yellow white

    No concerns about the Tilapia ?

  • @dreess8085
    @dreess8085 11 місяців тому

    Im not a big fan of stacking knots. An easier solution is to change your hook selection and use a real dropper loop as you eluded to in the beginning of the video. Try using a fine wire "spoon" hook #8 which has a bigger eye and will allow you to use the proper loop knot. Thanks for the content spanker!
