What? Some proper grammar would help me understand what you're trying to say... Are you upset that I didn't share the spot? Whether I fish there frequently or not is irrelevant. I don't share spots publicly online. It's a lose-lose situation for me.

Thanks! Anything specific you want to know about? I could make a video in the future going over what I use.

Yeah a video would be awesome, as a new hunter I like to see what other hunters use, from rifle to game bags

OK cool, I'll make a video about that in the future.

Thanks!

Thanks James!

Thank you! I hope you have success as well!

That's valid feeling. A successful hunt is a bittersweet moment. I've felt bad over taking the life of animals but it's necessary to accept that death is a part of life. Something dies for me to eat. It's also not like I want to kill every deer. I take a deer but I'm happy to see the fawns and younger bucks that will grow up in their place.

Check the 2024 freshwater sport fishing regulation booklet. You need a sport fishing license, it's open year round, no bag limit but there's regulations on how you can catch them: by hand, dip net, hook & line, or with traps not more than 3ft in their greatest dimension. There's also closures in certain areas to protect Shasta crayfish.

Lol first, why do you sound so angry? Chill out and learn to ask questions less aggressively. Lake Aloha is massive, I filmed the lake from where we were at. So yes I filmed the lake. I'm sorry, I didn't film the entire lake for you.

Lol 😂

I got the skull cleaned.

Definitely not.

Idk, what fish are you eating?

Thank you!

Thanks! That's pretty good, I hope you can get one this year too. I hope I can get another buck this year as well. Bakersfield is a ways from me, but I'll keep you in mind. If you want to keep in touch, you can contact me on IG.

Thanks and congrats on your kills/harvests. Getting pigs off public land is not easy. Hope you have a good season this year too.

​@truoutdoors thanks man. I got one this morning 😊 . The vibe was out since I saw your video.

Wow that's amazing! Congrats!

It wasn't that bad, I noticed a slight fishiness to it but it smelled worst than it tasted.

These were spoonies. Some had fat that was more yellow. The yellow fat has some odor, but the meat tastes fine.

It's the Okuma SST, medium power, 9'6", lure rating: 3/8 - 1oz

Thanks!

30lb braid main line and 20lb mono leader. I have a 11ft rod and a 9'6" rod.

@truoutdoors thank u so much..I've never surf fished before but just barely started looking into it today..might try it this summer..

Np. You should definitely try, it's a lot of fun. The fishing is great in the summer too.

Looks like this is in pescadero?

29 inches

Thanks!

It's not my go to but I've been trying to use it more recently. I've always heard it's the best bait to use and it makes sense, almost every fish I've kept from the surf has sand crabs in it's stomach. But I prefer using a carolina rig with a paddletail grub. I fish around HMB and up to Ocean beach.

@@truoutdoors I only fish for 1.5-2 hours at a time and hate to spend 1 hour searching for sand crabs. I frequently fish Francis and less at Montara (because of parking). Lots at various Santa Cruz beaches.

Ya, if I only have time for a short session, then I'll just use a carolina rig or lures. It doesn't take me too long to find sand crabs though. I get 1-2 to get my rod casted out and spend 5-10 minutes finding some to use for the day. I haven't had much luck at Francis. Santa Cruz is good but further away.

For the duck species in this video? Yes. The are still limits on how many you can take. 7 ducks per day per hunter. With additional limits on certain duck species.

@@truoutdoors damn, ok thanks

At my guide's ranch/property.

@@truoutdoors I'm in Santa Maria and I want to take my grandson hunting but I've never heard hunting before. So I figured I would need a guide and someone to help with the gutting..

Have you taken your hunter education/safety course yet? You'll both need to do that first before you can go hunting. A guide will be your best bet at getting a shot opportunity and they usually do the skinning and gutting unless you want to do it. I'd recommend being involved in that process as it's an important part of the hunting process. You'll need to take the animal to a butcher to have it processed unless you plan to also butcher it yourself.

@@truoutdoors I will do those things first. Thank you.

Np

Yes, always. You get better quality fish meat by doing so.

I used a Hi-lo rig for this striped bass, but also use a carolina rig and lures. I cover my set up in the full video that's linked to this short.

That's good to hear 👍

I'm using a Hoyt Powermax, 70lb draw weight at 29" draw length. You can find a video on my bow setup on my channel.

Okay thank you

Thanks!

Thanks!

Yes, it's safe to eat. Cook it to the proper temperature. The meat tasted like a mix of pork and beef. Some cuts were tougher than others, so low-temperature, slow-cook recipes work great.
