When I arrive and am walking down the beach, I always ask fellow fishermen, "How's the action"? They say, "You shoulda been here last week. A guy caught a 48-inch Striper."
I believe it’s Adam if I remember right. Hey nice meeting you today south of Halfmoon bay. Nice Striper. Didn’t realize you were the same guy in the videos. You’re a slayer. Enjoy your videos. Tight lines brother
Your devotion to using sand crabs for bait makes so much sense that it should not be questionable . All they cost is a bit of time and are readily available . Plus the surf perch certainly seem to enjoy them . Patience paid off for you this time , well done .
What a beast of a perch unreal that is totally mental brother. Excellent big ass taco YEAAAAA WOOOW OOOOO etc hahaha wow 😳😱😲😳😱 unreal that is the biggest Purge I have seen caught here on TH-cam that I checked on from the rest of you guys they're all on the after from more then fishing , fisherman's life ,ish fish , PHILOSOPHY D etc. Good stuff God bless you and your family and God bless all of you who are struggling and homeless because of covid-19
Thanks again , I really like these surf fishing episodes , and learning what rig you use for perch is helpful , for some.... And i think perch are a good source of food , and if prepared right it's worth the catch...🤝
Daaang Son them some nice slabs. We're catching slabs too. Crappie bite is just starting, like you early morning and late evening. Great video Adam be safe out there. Aloha from Kansas
That big ole perch just needs scaled, gutted, 3 slices in the sides. Fry him up in olive oil, butter and fresh garlic and dill. Mmm I can taste it. That’s a bigen and a beauty.
Do you have a favorite tide for perch? An hour before incoming high tide that occurs with the sunup/sun down times? Seems like that would be when the bottom would be the most stirred up.
Hey Adam. Scored me an outback. Looking forward to being out in the Monterey Bay waters once i learn how to use the rudder and pedal system. Guy who sold me through in a downrigger which i've never used. Perhaps you have a video i can reference.
This is beginning to look like it's going to be my new hobby! What are the size limits & bag limits for surf perch in california? I will be going to San Luis obispo county soon. Can anybody recommend a good location in that county to fish for surf perch for a first timer?
Dang it, I won't be getting into the surf until the end of May. Seriously need the decompression time. 5:15 Pepperoni seagull bait. You don't even have to unbox it.
Hey Adam. Big fan. What’s the ideal swell height? I’m heading out to Santa Cruz from sac but it says 4-5ft. Don’t wanna waste my time. Any guidance is helpful!
I grew up catching surf perch on muscles, which is my all time favorite surf bait. I have also caught them on nightcrawlers. I NEVER caught one over 2 ibs though, very nice!
Yeah muscles work really well. I just dont understand how dudes get them off the pier without getting in the water lol I'm not tryna be all cold and wet
My pb was 17 an half I believe I'll have to check but I've only got maybe 3 or 4 of that size my hole life the big ones are getting harder an harder to find for sure I'm 33 almost 34 been fishing since a kid so that being sed huge perch my man good catch thumbs up!
Wonder why?? Maybe because people can't keep their mouths shut. Have to tell everyone online where they were and what they used. It's supposed to be IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW, but people just don't get it...... it will be too late once they realize
Where are the stripers?! I may try tomorrow morning. Saw you down there Monday afternoon when I was dropping my girls at volleyball. Guess you were getting your sand crabs 😝 nice surfperch
The really best time to fish is 2 hours before I arrive or 10 minutes after I leave.
Ha! Gary
About a half pound of sand on that three pounder
When I arrive and am walking down the beach, I always ask fellow fishermen, "How's the action"? They say, "You shoulda been here last week. A guy caught a 48-inch Striper."
Lol
You forgot "You shoulda been here yesterday"
That 3 pounder was definitely worth the price of admission.
What an absolute UNIT!
I believe it’s Adam if I remember right. Hey nice meeting you today south of Halfmoon bay. Nice Striper. Didn’t realize you were the same guy in the videos. You’re a slayer. Enjoy your videos.
Tight lines brother
The first surf perch I ever caught was 3+ pounds. I thought at the time they all were that big. Haven’t caught one that big since ... lol
That’s huge! Isn’t the record like 4?
DOUBLE SLABBER! I've never seen a 3lber😳
Never!!!!
We call em footballs!
That’s 18 inches world record is smaller than that
Bro! Your one of the best TH-camr fisherman. Always catching these monsters and so knowledgeable.
Your devotion to using sand crabs for bait makes so much sense that it should not be questionable . All they cost is a bit of time and are readily available .

Patience paid off for you this time , well done .
In new to your channel my brother but in catching up by watching your older videos. I like what I see.
Thank you.
Thanks for checking out the channel!
This is awesome ! I caught a huge perch too a month ago down at Jalama beach, CA. on sand crabs. Best fish tacos ever !!
Nice Adam! Haven't seen a 3 pounder in decades. Wasn't rare when I was a kid fishing the beaches of Davenport. Once upon a time....👍🏼

Not sure about down there but up here in Oregon, if it's slow-you gotta move. if nothing after 5 or 6 casts, move 100 yards or so. Great vid-thx!
Daaang Son them some nice slabs. We're catching slabs too. Crappie bite is just starting, like you early morning and late evening. Great video Adam be safe out there. Aloha from Kansas
Thanks!
With two slabs like that, more surf fishing videos please!

Love your channel brother. Best energy. Hello from Australia 🇦🇺🤙
Your definition of slab is putting mine to shame haha. Nice catches Adam!
Good Lunch and NICE DINNER!
Do you have a favorite tide for perch? An hour before incoming high tide that occurs with the sunup/sun down times? Seems like that would be when the bottom would be the most stirred up.
Would love to see a day of surf perch fishing on artificial baits. We cant harvest sand crab up in wa state
Bro. Your fishing videos are Bangin'💣💥🔥🔥🔥
Wow he was huge! Congratulations! Great video as always!
Thats an awesome catch, haven't caught my first perch yet but thanks for the tips. Will have to change the time and hope for the best. Great videos!!
right on! back to the roots.
Hey Adam. Scored me an outback. Looking forward to being out in the Monterey Bay waters once i learn how to use the rudder and pedal system. Guy who sold me through in a downrigger which i've never used. Perhaps you have a video i can reference.
Very nice for the first catch dude, awesome!!
Thank u for educational video
The fun of fishing for big fish, 🎣🎣🎣
Perch tend to have mushy meet, but definitely nice fish!!
The faster you get them in ice water the firmer you can keep the flesh
Perch makes excellent chowder.
when I fish for surf perch, sometimes I catch nothing but bigs; sometimes I catch nothing but dinks
That’s a monster perch! Congrats!
Number 1 size hook
Great catch, huge!
Lmao that person at 8:45 that ran in between his pole and the water I hate when ppl try to pull that shit
I see that is a BG reel, it it a 4000? What kind of fishing rod are you using? Wanted to know the specs on the rod.
Thanks for info . What rod and reel do you use ?
Fucking tank of a perch. He’s been through some battles. Not gonna lie, I kinda wish you release him.
Adam: I'll just go out there and scope some sandcrabs.
Sandpipper: That's illegal.
Is it really illegal on CA?
@@bubbleone6526
No.. It's a joke.
It's illegal in Washington State.
@@MyConcreteGuy I thought it was illegal here in WA
Duuude that’s a HUGE perch
That is a true slab! nice job
stud bsp! that thing looked like nick caught it before🤔
Let's get it 💪
Beautiful! and the fish is nice too!
Surf perch is a tasty 😋 fish 🐠 especially if bled, cleaned and cooked properly.
What a tank🙌🏻
Nice fish, hopefully we get some of those down here soon, i usually fish for them with really light line i use a 4 lb leader and a size 6 hook lol
This is beginning to look like it's going to be my new hobby! What are the size limits & bag limits for surf perch in california? I will be going to San Luis obispo county soon. Can anybody recommend a good location in that county to fish for surf perch for a first timer?
Awesome catch !👍🏻
im gonna assume u let it go 👍
Nice 👍
What do you usually keep your sand crabs in? And how long do they last?
# 1 bait by far, and i have tried everything, is sand worms! real sand worms.
Damn Adam I’ve never caught a surf perch that big congrats.
Beautiful fish 🐠 wow nice catch 👍
Have you tried the small curly tail grubs, the soft plastic/silicone.
slaunch!!!! Nice perch my man
Been following you for a year...absolutely LOVE your content brotha!!!
You are da man!!
Nice size perch!
Nice, those are slabs indeed 😀
Where do people go to to surf fish in the bay area? I've read a few places would be Pier 7 and around that area. Anywhere else ?
Great fish! What beach are at?
Dang it, I won't be getting into the surf until the end of May. Seriously need the decompression time. 5:15 Pepperoni seagull bait. You don't even have to unbox it.
Hard to tell from a distance, but the sandpipers look like willets, which are in the sandpiper family.
You might be right!
Nice!!! How long is that rod, bruh?
Surf perch is good but I prefer chili cheese fries🤘Great video
do you prefer carolina rig or fish finder
I like both. For tougher conditions I like the fish finder rig and calmer conditions I like the Carolina rig
Great videos. Where did you get the net you use to catch sand crabs? Thank you
Hey Adam. Big fan. What’s the ideal swell height? I’m heading out to Santa Cruz from sac but it says 4-5ft. Don’t wanna waste my time. Any guidance is helpful!
I use 15 pound mono with 8 pound floral leader and a size 4, hook
Hey Adam what’s your PB surf perch
