This weekend was rough for Dungey at shore. It's been like this for the last three years. I would love to eventually learn how to get out there like this to crab and fish. You're living the dream.
Where did you go out to? I heard the guys out at Ocean Beach did pretty well! Yeah man, even if it takes a used $200 kayak and a $40 trap it’s totally worth it! You might enter the rabbit hole of kayak fishing though 😳 I started off with a very small setup and was pretty successful with it!
@@HideshiIzu this year I went to OB. I guess it was the spot cause the guy next to me caught limit within the hour while others around him were getting 2 or 3. In the past, I tried avoiding this place as everyone comes here. It sounds like that kayak investment is pretty much the same as my rock fishing investment. One will never be satisfied.
Nice catches! To each their own, but I commend you on releasing the lings to grow even more and setting a good example for other fisherman that we don't always have to keep everything we catch!
Thanks man! Yeah its kinda an odd thing with sizes because the bigger ones are way older and have more reproductive value, but at the same time you want to let the smaller ones grow...
@@HideshiIzu that's so true. Bigger fish have better traits that's why they survived and got huge. Lingcods take about 2-5 years to start reproducing. Which is very quick compared to rockfish which can take 15-20 years with a lifespan of 100yr+.
I love your content dude! You should do some catch and cooks! Would love to see these beautiful crab get cooked up and eaten! Also can you go catch sea urchin where you are? Uni is soooo good 😊
Yeah it was definitely a struggle heading out but once I caught that first crab the excitement took over so it wasn't as bad haha. Its a 2020 Hobie Outback with a Torqueedo motor!
@@HideshiIzu Say, do you speak Japanese? I do, and I noticed you have a Japanese name. Sorry if I assumed too much. No disrespect if you don't. Cheers!
I was there on the beach almost same time you were on Kayak. It is too much seaweed for snare crabs so I left early. I noticed your channel when I watched you pick up crabs only by hands.
I've been wondering about that because I never see anyone snaring. Was thinking about trying in front of the Bell but you've got me thinking maybe I shouldn't waste my time.
nice so your kayak has an electric motor. can't say i don't solo dive. some people's off days don't line up or skill levels. i just try to be careful keep my under water time less then a minute mostly float on top & no solo night dives
Yeah man everyone gauges the risk for themselves. Personally, I don’t think diving is even worth it for me without a buddy. I have reached out to so many divers over the past few years that ever time I want to dive, at least one other person can make it out. I also find that I dive more relaxed with someone watching my back and hunt more efficient using teamwork!
Good job brother. I noticed that you are not using a required 3" x 5" red marker float along with your Float. Maybe you are not aware but there was a new rules/emergency policy to use 3"x5" red marker float along with your 5" x 11" float. I am surprised you are not keeping those delicious rock crabs. Overall, great video.
You are totally addicted to fishing. It’s so cold and you’re sick. Thankfully, the water calmed down a bit. Stay safe. Get a couple more days of rest and come out again. 💕

I snared three keepers yesterday from the beach with two being almost 7 inches!! Cooked one on the beach and it was delicious!!
Awesome! Which beach were you at? That sounds awesome, nothing beats fresh crab on the beach!

Buddy just tossed his whole crab setup over and said line doesn’t tangle😂
Rope doesn't tangle itself usually... its usually people messing around with it that gets it tangled.

Yeah I definitely need to do more catch and cooks!
Great job bro! You’ve come a long way since last year! Keep grinding and never stop learning! 🙂🦀🎣
Thanks man!
Damn that ling was such a cool color, like a greenish dark blue
Yeah even the meat is neon blue!
Orange rock crab. Probably a freshly molted red rock crab
Great video! Where is the battery for the motor?
nice crab
Very nice bro! It ain't easy catching crabs while you're under the weather. What kayak are you using if I may ask?
Yeah it was definitely a struggle heading out but once I caught that first crab the excitement took over so it wasn't as bad haha. Its a 2020 Hobie Outback with a Torqueedo motor!
Sweeeeeeeeet haul!!! Get well soon, man.
Thanks man, barely starting to feel better 😅

I think that that weight is the current, I've felt it before not sure tho
Might be!
I was there on the beach almost same time you were on Kayak. It is too much seaweed for snare crabs so I left early. I noticed your channel when I watched you pick up crabs only by hands.
Yeah man I noticed a lot of the beach guys were just pulling in seaweed! I didn't see a single person with a crab from shore :(
I've been wondering about that because I never see anyone snaring. Was thinking about trying in front of the Bell but you've got me thinking maybe I shouldn't waste my time.
Nice video! There is so many shorts this year.
Short crabs? Or like short videos on UA-cam? LOL

those rock crab are delicious, too.
They are but they don’t have as much meat and they are way harder to eat lol
Have you ever tried the beach area on the other side of that point? Too rocky?
Other side north or south?
Dang Bro. What motor do you have your Hobie??? YOu look pretty far out! Im too scare to go that far lol
I wasn't too far out! At any point in this video I could have swam back to shore! I use a Torqueedo 403AC motor! It gets up to 5.6mph :)
@@HideshiIzu Let me go out there with you next time!!! haha
Oh dude the wide angle lens makes the shore look super far! Just realized that’s why it looks like that to you.

From what I understand its only for traps. He is using hoops. However from what I can see of his 5 x 11 buoys he needs a GO ID on them.
nrm.dfg.ca.gov/FileHandler.ashx?DocumentID=195608
I have my GO ID on all of them! I should probably add my phone number tho
@@HideshiIzu awesome! I throw my number on there too, just in case!

Thanks man!
where was this taken?
California, USA!
That cost you a subscription
Bro I wasn’t lying what the…
What beach
Don't stress, gained a sub 😅
you don't keep the rock crabs
No, 10 Dungeness is already a LOT 😅
Damn man all the way from Davis to this beach is a drive lol there are other beaches bro lol you could avoid the traffic
It’s only an hour and 20 minutes down without traffic! But I totally miss leaving from San Jose lol, way closer! Where do you recommend for crabbing?
@@HideshiIzu tomales bay and bodega bay are nice spots
@@blkaudiofan bodega bay has been terrible/slow for an opener... seems to me he made the right choice here lol
@@maethlin yeah but usually week two or three it heats up
