I'm all for that! I feel my life job should be a fisherman. Or deep sea fishing for crab and lobster. I'm tired of retail and just want to do what I love and that's fishing.
Im not here to say first second or third. I'm here to say Hi, Stay Safe, and God Bless You. Edit: Thanks for the likes! I'm a small channel and this means A LOT to me. my most liked comment is currently 112 likes, this is my second most liked so this means SO much to me as I'm trying to get to 20 subs by the end of 2020 and my channel content isn't great but I'll post as much as possible. (Won't be soon because of {Covid-19})
I just got my Fisherman's Life cap and t-shirt the other day and a group of friends and family is heading to the June Lake loop on Wednesday, where I'll be proudly sporting my FL gear. I think it'll be the lucky charm to get us on the trout big time.
my last video we caught 5 salmon. all on 6" green pyramid flasher. other pole had 4" different style pyramid no bites (friends rod). I use that flasher on every salmon trip and it produces every time. You have a po box or something, I will send you one. Good job getting @philosophy D a salmon! Nice big girl!
@@FishermansLife I did notice, didnt think it was because of me though, but I did think hey thats what I do. Good stuff. I got a new boat, tested it out today with the family on the bay, tomorrow it goes out for salmon. 2007 north river seahawk. 135 hours. 150hp yamaha with a kicker. excited about the kicker lol. 20' with the off shore bracket makes it 22'. Flasher coming your way.
Another reason I miss the Freshcoast. The fishing on the Pacific. It's not bad in the Gulf off Texas but it's just different. Salmon and rockcod over redfish and sand trout. Still tho fishing is life.
I fish with a flasher 90% of the time. Hoochie + flasher and spoons + flasher will work anywhere. You can use a long leader for spoon and bait. The flasher attracts a lot more fish. You can also rig "false-flashers" to your down rigger wire but not your line. Fighting the flasher can be a big downside. Right as the fish gets to the surface the flashers can make it hard to keep pressure to the fish occasionally. The fish can also use it for leverage as well. I avoid these issues by keeping the motor engaged- (it can help to have your friend engaging and disengaging the motor to keep tension)
@@gillateengilly5139 honestly I have fished with bait only a handful of times in the past 10 years. my grandpa exclusively fished herring up until 2005 where he switched to fishing spoons. they work so well in most cases, why even bother with bait? especially if the fish are actively feeding. if you are trolling estuaries or in rivers for kings bust the bait back out again- it will help trigger bites as they transition to home migration and spawning.
Wow. Nice King. Great job. We caught one #30 on 8/22. My buddy and I have caught salmon with and without flasher. Good luck fishing Matt. My buddy used to have 15.6' Arima and we caught many salmon out of the gate and sequel hole. I love Arima boat. Stable and sea worthy.
Matt, another guy who fishes your area uses 6inch green flasher on his Salmon rigs. Just passing it on. His Y.T. Channel is ChrisPfish. You might get a chance to team up with him and pick up his tricks, but he tells all on his video's for that area.
My friend caught 20lbs Snapper( my guess )under bridge,, we spent A night in waiting... In the morning when We get the Fish after 15 minute fight,, My friend Get Exited and took out the hook, then he told me to Take picture... He lift up the Fish One hand on the gils and another hand on the tail... 2 Second before i Press the Camera on my phone, It happen... The Fish Start to Struggle and Boomm...Its gone, back in the water ... I Laugh but in Deep pain in my Heart, i know my Friend Felt even Worse...
Man i remember when this guy used to dream about this stuff going on solo missions for weeks at a time and now its so unreal what he’s become!!! Fishermen’s Life!!
The Fraser is the greatest Salmon riverin the whole world. 5 species and all in the millions. But I would always choose to fish in the ocean in front of the Fraser most of the time.
your videos getting better and better man!! the intro music & the video it self are awesome!!! i wish i was so successful like you on TH-cam.. :P and CONGRESS ON 1MILLION!!
Flashers are just another tool in the box. Cable baiters, FBR, RSK, Apex, spoons... When things slow down toss something different at em. Personally have had best success with straight chrome. IMO you are going for the attraction of the "flash" Now go smoke that hog and don't burn em:) Edit: Hit the auto up on that downrigger ASAP! Had me nervous that hog was going run and wrap>brake off.
Fisherman's Life: When I used to fish outside the bay (estimated: 12 - 30 miles out from SF), we too used spades, but they don't really work well. But in Florida they work really well, I'm assuming it's the color of the water and that we were in glass conditions. That's a nice catch at least you're coming home with nothing. Be safe & tight lines.
Up here in British Columbia i use flashers every time I go out for kings and coho. Green with white always work good black and white the water melon colour one you have will also work. Then we use a coyote watermelon colour fishing lure. But also any anchovy with the head teaser lure will work with the Flasher also
I use flashers all the time up here in Washington. I like the 11 inch best. Nice fish by the way! I caught my biggest salmon in your backyard (44.5lb) off Muir beach back in 2004 on my buddies boat using a flasher and the purple apex. Try it.
It's been amazing having you back Matts hopefully the landlocked salmon are biting tomorrow as well. I remember the days of 10k subs, it's amazing to see that you're almost to 1 mil. keep being you. Also I know some guides in Oregon, and they use the triangle flashers often in the yellow/chartreuse and orange colors, more often orange than not the also use dead bait like you were.
Definitely flashers! Red and blue work good for me... also bright green with black spots. We use divers as well. Nice fish! 30"between flasher and diver. Oregon/ Alaska
We run flashers everytime we go out for kings, flashers with the colour green or orange always works for us.......meat rig, twinkie rig or straight on the fly
in Alaska we use a flasher(in ocean)about the size of a Monster drink. Like a long oval. I've even got lucky trolling with an orange "Wiggle Wart" (no flasher) Guess it just depends on the fish's mood or area. The Kings from Talkeetna we use a 6" steel leader attached to nothing less than 50 lb test line & Ugly Stik. Catch on "King-sets" Double hook w/ synthetic egg clusters. Suckers will pull you in!
Mazel tov for your first 1,000,000 subscribers. Matt. I wish soon your second million. Always watching your videos.From los Angeles ca. Att: pescando para cenar.
Up in the Columbia we use recrangle flashers with a 12-16oz weight off a 12-15” weight line. Run your bait about 20-24 inch off the flasher or 12-16 inches to a spinner
Congratulations on 1 million subscribers your the best youtuber man I’ve been watching you since you had 900 subscribers when you fished of the Jetty for perch and you ate the heart.
Up in the Puget sound I'll always prefer bait but alot of times there so many dogfish we have to switch to flashers and spoon. Coho killers for the win
Wow, nice fishing Matts! We need to get back out there soon and get them salmon! We're still waiting to get our motor fixed. And you're almost at a million! 🙌
Have you heard that bluefin tuna are showing up 10 miles out from Half Moon Bay?www.kron4.com/news/bay-area/half-moon-bay-fishermen-finding-huge-bluefin-tuna-close-to-shore/
Dude, congrats on 1 million! Well deserved. Love your channel

@@sidelockprime9046 me neither!
Oooh buddy! Slow day but we grinded out a HOG! Not gonna forget this fish bro!

As someone who has only sold farmed salmons in a market,
that WILD salmon is looking like GOLD!
Get a lure cam! 😍. Just imagine the footage you would get 👌🔥😍😍. Love your vids bro
I'm all for that! I feel my life job should be a fisherman. Or deep sea fishing for crab and lobster. I'm tired of retail and just want to do what I love and that's fishing.
He had one a while back that he used quite a bit for rock fishing.
Its to dark for lure cam down there

@RO RO i agree fishing in the sierras right now is bad, fish aint biting
I went to courtright and other lakes only one person caught a fish
I never been to june luke but a long time ago my friends dad got a big ass trout like it was as big as king salmon
@RO RO must have to see how to get there soon when covid over and the California fire

No lie Chris- you're killing 'em out there. I'm gonna rig just like you but with maybe a snubber added in.
I do. Po box 16192 san francisco, ca 94116 lol. Don't know if you noticed but I did the 33ft down instead of 30like you lol

The "false flasher" is a must do when you are using a downrigger.

Kate Bui good salmon fishing when the time comes
The Fraser is the greatest Salmon riverin the whole world. 5 species and all in the millions. But I would always choose to fish in the ocean in front of the Fraser most of the time.
