    Keep the vids coming Chris! I've been out every weekend for about 2mo straight. Caught a 100lbs black sea bass, lots of calico and sculpin but so far no yellows. Gotta put in the work to hookup. Your vids are very informative and helpful. Thanks!

    Those were some solid marks you got.probably yellows I’d assume. I have noticed though that you seem to use dropperloops some days and yo yo’s the next. Is there any particular reason for changing it up or just depends on what your feeling that day?

    Another great informational and inspiring video, Chris. As always the video is full of great information, that has more information than most can absorb and process with one viewing. I would advise beginners to watch more than once, in between making several trips, to practice some of the techniques. You can't remember all the info in just this video without practicing until, it's second nature. Can't catch a trophy fish every trip. That's why it's called fishing and not catching! A large part of the fun is in learning and applying what you learn. When you do finally catch one, it will be so much more satisfying. Put in the time on the water, but don't forget to enjoy the scenery, a beautiful day and relax. That's one big reason to be there in the first place. If you get too wound up on the fishing par,t your day will SUCK!

    You appear to have much less line on your reels than my setups, which is interesting. I've had some close calls recently with line bunching up on one side(while hooked up an not paying attention to feeding it right) and nearly losing a fish from the spooled line biting into the reel body. Is that your rationale with less line or is it something else? Awesome vids BTW!

    Hey Chris - enjoying the vids. How do you get a greenback to stay hooked on a flyline like that? Last week I tried to drift for a bit and had two in a row come off within 30 secs of throwing back into the water because I wasn't moving - hooked up through the nose on a #3/0 or #4/0 ringed hook. When trolling a flyline or on a Carolina rig I've never had them come off when hooked that way.
