- Hello everyone,
Welcome back to my Fishing 247 channel. I really appreciate everyone watching and subscribing to my channel. It means a lot to me. I will try to have a fishing video for you to enjoy weekly from now on. If I am unable to go fishing, I will have videos relate to fishing, cooking, or tutorials.
***The trip was very special to me because it was my first trip since I got infected with Covid 19 after Thanksgiving. I am still recovering and hopefully will be healthy enough to do more videos for you.
***Important: Thank you so much for watching and subscribing to my channel. You are the reason for me to do my videos. Please continue to support me. All the money I receive from youtube will be used to help others to have opportunities to go fishing.
Today I went fishing with my friends Luis and Troy today on my 15' Gregor. We launched out of Oyster Point Marina. We mainly fished from Oyster Point to Hunter Point from 20' to 50' deep. We caught 2 halibuts by drifting on frozen anchovies on the top of outgoing tide straight out from Oyster Point in 20' deep. After a quick hook-up, the bite shut down and we started trolling and caught 3 more shakers near Hunter Point.
The wind started blowing around 11 AM and we end our trip at 2 PM.
I had a great day fishing with my friends Luis and Troy and had great memories with them.
Be happy, stay healthy, stay safe, and go fishing. Have a great day.

Hi Thuy welcome back to your vlogs. We wonder how you doin. Keep safe 😊
Thanks Fe. I am supposed to go to work today, but have a reaction to the second shot. Say hello to everyone for me. I have missed them dearly.
@@Fishing247 Hi Thuy good to see you again to your fishing. I will tell the guys to see you soon even virtually. Stay safe and God bless🙏
@@masocorrosalvador1367 Thanks God bless you.
I just came across your video I didn’t realize that you could drift frozen bait I thought that was only good for trolling
You can drift frozen bait on a strong tide and curve your baits. Thanks for watching.
i love watching your videos.............i was just wondering what type of boat were you guys in.......how big too......thinking of getting one for the bay...
It is a Gregor Alaskan 15f aluminum boat. Designed for ocean. Thanks
and get ready for some salmon...
I am planning to go on Saturday for salmon, but the weather is not cooperating.
Great video! I have a question about managing the lines. Is it possible to troll six lines without them tangling each other? (This is for ocean fishing (not in the SF Bay). Thanks!
Yes you can. You need to use different sizes of sinkers to allow the lines to be separated so they do not tangled each other. The heavier sinkers will be in front and lighter sinkers are behind. If you have rod holder outriggers, you can spread the lines out from the boat. When you have multiple lines, be careful when you turn. Do not turn sharp and also speed up when you turn so line do not cross each others. Good luck and be safe, and happy fishing.
@@Fishing247 Thank you so much man! I love your channel. You have lots of good information for local fishermen! Please keep up the good work!
glad your are back healthy. What makes you decide to troll or drift bait? thanks
Thanks for watching. I will drift when there is good or strong current. Your boat will move like you are trolling. When crrent is weak I troll so my baits can spin. Also trolling can cover more areas or you can go where you want to cover. Good luck fishing and let me know if you have any questions. Stay safe.
Awesome and informative vid! What size for the hook and treble?
Thanks for watching. The size of the J hook and treble hooks depends on the baits. If small live baits, use small hooks so that the bait can swim and If using frozen baits, use hook sizes depends on how big is the hooks. Do not use hoo bigger than the width of the baits. Good luck fishing. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.
@@Fishing247 thanks for the reply. So let's say I'm drifting frozen anchovies in capitola on the skiff, would a 2/0 hook and a size 2 treble hook be alright?
@@itzyabui yes. Or you can you a 1/0 J hook. You most likely to get the fish with the treble hook. Make you to use magic thread to curve so the frozen anchovy can spin. You can also brine the anchovy a day before fishing. Your anchovies will be shinier and last longer. Use salt, water and Mrs Steward's bluing, mix it and put the anchovies in the liquid and in the refrigerator the day before going fishing. Good luck. 🎣🐟🐟
@@Fishing247 Okay, I'll use 1/0 j hook and size 2 treble for the brined anchovies and frozen squid. This information is very helpful so thanks again for the reply.
@@itzyabui if you use frozen squid s, use bigger J hook (3/0) and 1/0 treble hook. Don't brine squid. If weak current, it will be more effective to troll slowly, from 1.5 to 2.5 mph
nice video !
are you using a ugly stick gx2 ?
what are the specs if you don’t mind ?
thanks
Thanks for watching and supporting me. Rod's specs: Ugly Still GX 2. Action: medium light. Length: 7ft. Very good rod for halibut fishing. I also use this rod for Salmon. The reel is Abu Garcia - Ambassadeur 6500 c3. High speed feel. I hope I answered your questions. Good luck fishing and stay safe.
@Fishing 247 thanks man !!
same to you
stay safe .
looking forward to seeing your upcoming videos !
Do kayakers have to pay the launch fee too? Sorry I plan on launching from here on my yak. TIA.
There are free parking for cars and I don't see any kayakers pay for parking. You may need to contact the Park to confirm. I have a yearly permit so I don't worry when launch my boat or kayak.
How deep was the water.
Do you have ratio of weight to feet?
Assuming it's not too choppy out there.
From 25 to 45 feet. What do you mean ratio to feet? Thanks for watching.
@@Fishing247
Was thinking if I fish around 75ft how many ounce would I need to stay on the water.
For the jig head it's like 3.5ounce for 100ft.. ideally
@@solo022667 please let me know what kind of fish do you want to fish, where:bay or ocean. Troll or drifting. It depends on may factor such as currents, winds...
@@Fishing247 I am in long beach area. Want to get into drifting fo halibut. Depth anywhere from 20 to 80ft. Not in the bay for sure.
@@solo022667 I have never fished for halibuts in the South. I guess you can drift for them everywhere. The how big is the sinker depends on the depth, current and winds. As long as your sinker can bounce up and down, not dragging, you will be ok. Also make sure your bait do not drag on the bottom and covered with mud or stuff. For baits, I am not sure what halibuts prefer down there. Most ocean Halibuts love squids, anchovies, sardines. You can also use scrubs lure too. Good luck fishing
Go get some burger and milk shake you will feel good.
You are absolutely right. I will follow your order on the next trip. 😁
