Fished the 2.5 day trip after yours. We put 49 on from 40/170. That guy in the black beanie and black jacket at 12:07 that the deckhand said “slide to the right” was on our trip and as annoying as H3LL!!! Hes fished BFT a couple times and was telling everyone how to fish. Anyhow great video and I ended up with 5. 3 @50, 1@75 and 1@170ish. Gave the big boy away to fishermen from Oregon who skunked!! Great big humble man!! Tight lines. 👍
I came across your video tonight. Great content, cinematography, format, time usage, attitude, etc. A very entertaining and an enjoyable video. Great job... subscribed.
Thanks for the feedback. Glad you enjoyed my video. I want to get back out again soon. I'm going in mid July. I think the fishing is only getting better now.
Thanks for the excitement. The Legend has been a top notch catching fish. Good luck next time pulling on those big fish. I highly recommend that you change jigs if you are not getting bit .
Yes, I realized that too late into the trip. I believe typically the jig doesn't matter too much, as evidenced by the Eddie bomb phenomenon. They will bite anything that's moving in the water. In this trip though, there was a pattern of effective jig style becoming apparent.
@@alfredog2154to your point about Eddie bombs.....I went out last week. The boats that pulled in the morning we left had caught many of their fish on Eddie Bombs. I fished two trips back to back and only saw one caught on an Eddie Bomb. Crazy how things change. I was successful on 300 gram Rip Rollers. Luma Polkadot and Ironman.
1g per ft on the jigs, you need flat fall, knife jigs, hybrid like the SK jigs. You need to use different ones depending on current. Also the really long ones don’t work as well for some reason so cal weather doest really work with them. Rip rollers are bread & butter.
I've only been twice, but I saw some really long 500 gram jigs work very well for a few people last week. Some were red, some blue pink and silver, and some that had been used so long that the paint was gone.
Great vudeo. I always enjoy watching guys catch fish. But my question to you is; what seemed to have work better when fishing the jigs do hooks at the bottom work better than hooks at the top of the jig??
Thanks for the feedback. It's not obvious what hook configuration worked best, as all different configurations were used. I did hear that it's better to just use the hooks on bottom because otherwise your assist hook on top can snag the tuna on the gill plate, making it very difficult to reel in because you would be dragging the fish in sideways.

Thanks man, I appreciate the feedback!
Nice video. It never gets old. Some really nice quality Tuna. One day I want to go on the Legend for a day and a half or two day trip.
The legend is a great boat. Great crew, they're very willing to help out all the passengers. They understand customer service.
Great content, thanks for sharing your adventure. I came back from a 3 day on 6/3 and already itching to get back out. That was a nice grade of fish.

Just get smaller profile bro . That’s what they’re hitting. West coast jigs have some nice smaller profile but heavy

Better camera man than fisherman!! Good content
🥴🤣
Nice rockfish. Sometimes even when BFT fishing I actually really enjoy when a captain will get the boat on a spot to pick up some tasty meat.
Yes, if the bft aren't biting, I definitely don't mind loading up on rockfish.
Good job bro 🎉

@@JimWellman all depends on depth and current
90% of tangles are by guys not following their lines and just being a plant n not moving it’s just inexperience
Anyone know how the Catalina bite is? Doing a 3/4 day tomorrow out of Newport
How was it?

Funny how east coast bluefin get lock jaw at night, we don't even try to target them.
That boat is sooooooo fishy. Sean Trowbridge crushed it in the albacore days.
How many did the boat catch?
I don't recall the exact total, but approximately 30 fish, most in the 80-110lb range
Talk less you might catch something!!! Lol
