Damn..!! What an exit out of the water..... Pimp stepn' it out like a savage.
Rockfishing is closed shoreward of the 50 fathom line in Nov 2023, fyi
Thanks! No rockfish were kept. Lots of halibut and surf perch around that area that can still be fished!
Very much enjoyed watching this 👍👍👍good content, keep it up brother
Very enjoy and love your video!!!Can I know what kind of your kayak?Thank you
Consider adding amas sidekicks to your outback. I have the same model and the amas sidekicks help with the stability esp when hauling heavy traps over the side when it’s choppy. I have the inflatables non hobie brand which works great. Great vid!
Where did you buy them? I used to have some on the very first kayak setup I put together but I just found them to be extra weight at the end of the day, inflatable might be better!
It would have been nice if you quickly talked about the crab equipment you were using. That's why I came here..
Pretty basic, hoop net, sink line, float 🤷🏽♂️
I would like to know the protocol when getting on the water. Do you have to check in with coast guards on the walkie? The numbers on your kayak, is that like a dmv number?
My safety protocol is have a VHF radio on me at all times to be able to contact other boats and the coast guard. I also wear a coast guard approved life jacket and a drysuit!
Because he has an engine on his kayak, he has to register his yak with California DMV. I don’t agree but that’s the rules.
Hey thank you for the education on Crabbing. What is Dungeness crab season? Start-Finish? You use raw chicken?
Regulations can be found online at the department of fish and wildlife. Yes, raw chicken lol
Do you not always use your pot puller? *Do you think the scotty pot puller is worth it?
Nice truck 🤙🏼
Nice man
Thanks!
Do you take tide into consideration when going out? Have you noticed one tide being oreferable.over the other?
I usually depend on wind, swell, and maybe period
What happened to portion of the video where you were catching rockfish? Clipping it out and reposting doesn't mean it never happened. If you're posting on UA-cam, you better make sure you know and follow the regulations. Have CDFW contacted you yet?
Any rockfish mistakenly caught that day were all released. No rockfish were kept. Clipped out the portion because I don’t want anyone to watch and think the season is still open and then go fishing and keep any rockfish. Thank you for your concern!
Wow i heard it was a slog most people taking hours for a limit on the opener. Youre a crab god man!
Really? I’m seeing/hearing it was a great start with most people hitting high numbers or limits
@@HideshiIzu I was watching Haos video out of HMB and he got 6 before he went home, said most people took 4-5 hours to get a limit. Maybe HMB was just not the place to be!
You did good, what was your crab bait of choice?
Chicken drumsticks. I talk more about it in the start of the video!
@@HideshiIzu Sorry, I kinda skipped around the video.
have you try freedive for crabing? tempting
Me and a few of my buddies used to at doran and tomales bay. Not easy. Hard to see. They are usually half buried. So we drop pots and scout in the area. It is not as productive and boats don't like dive near their pot. So watch your head. I hate the sound of props in the water. It feels like they are top of my head. Also, watch for current in place like tomales. Another hassle is seals are around crab areas and they mess with you if you are in the water. One time, a huge sea lion was trying to swim over him. Long story short, it is fun to dive but not as pleasant as spear fishing.
thank! @@dungenesscrab
Where did you launch? And can you lunch a 16ft boat in the same area?
Launched from the beach. It’s pretty tough dragging the kayak so I think it would be very difficult to launch a boat there.
@@HideshiIzu who make the crab snares with the skull on it. What beach did I you launch from
What mic you got bro?
DJI Mic! Highly recommend!
Bro hit me up if you need a buddy in NorCal for kayak fishing lol. I used snares at Bodega Bay opener and skunked lol. I shoulda just used kayak
Always down for more kayak friends, hit me up on IG @depth_affinity
Maan! I'm from LA and willing to drive up north to try crabbing... can you point me on the right direction pls
Tomales Bay would be your best bet coming from all the way down there. It should be pretty calm on most days and there are several launches in the area.
@@HideshiIzu thank you so much!!
Noice man
What fish were you targeting?
I was trying to target the spot between the sand and the rocks near the shore for halibut! Saw a couple other people targeting halibut too but didn’t see any catches, as the weather gets colder I think the halibut season is cooling off.
Still ended the day with 10 keeper crab so I wasn’t disappointed, would love to hit that spot up and the very point for next rockfish opener and try to hit 80ft deep… there have to be some massive lings out there!
@@HideshiIzu yeah. Halibut is still in season but they are headed out to sea. Not much to target these days.
@@HideshiIzu that looks like an incredible spot.
When was this!?!?
This was on November 4th
@@HideshiIzu nice! Congrats!! Next time your in Monterey I’ll meet you out there 🤙🏻
10 per person only? Show all the keppers at the end and how you cook it.. , steam the crab and pick it off meat, fried rice with egg over it...
10 per person is the limit in CA
Your adventures are great & you provide top notch fishing & crabbing content! Thanks Hideshi:) Here’s a link to helpful details in processing crab after they’re caught:

You keep females?
I usually don’t.
It's legal so it's a matter of preference. You can throw them back if you want but it's not a requirement
Where was this at?
California!
@@HideshiIzuhahahaha! Great answer! I was gonna say Pacific Ca….lifornia😂
Rumor has it Linda M frequents the taco bell in the area
😂
WHY ARE YOU USING A 10 FOOT POLE ON A KAYAK..? Just, WHYYYYYY??? You’re not fishing off the beach..
Newbie . lol
Because it works and I don’t want to waste money on another rod when I barely fish haha
