![How to Read the Beach for Surf Fishing [Beginner Tutorial]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LszY1Gci-x8/mqdefault.jpg)
Striped bass are interesting because they are an anadromous species highly effected by water temps. Water temperature will determine their biological feeding clock and of recent years we have had el nino water temps and unusual ocean conditions changed by odd weather patterns. The video here on surf fishing stripers offers some great tips on reading sand bars and drop holes .
Last two incoming to first outgoing is 100% on the money for when to fish as the holes are created however anglers have to be prepared for sand bars changing locations as swell and weather patterns shift these locations. What was one day might not be there after a big week of swell conditions and annual winter storms can change locations significantly.
If a angler paid attention here they should be able to take these key concepts and apply it to there local surf locations containing striped bass, the info provided here is text book correct.
Thanks for watching, glad you agree on what was shown in the video. 👍👍 I appreciate you inputs too.
@@MoreThanFishing Striped bass are a great species for anglers to enjoy however we have ongoing legislative measures in California where"WATER RIGHTS" have become a threat and Striped bass are still being falsely blamed as the cause of other species depleted numbers as water resources dry up.. To date Anglers/ advocates have been able to defeat 3 Legislative AB Measures proposed to eradicate striped bass in California but i fear we will see more measures as California seeks to hide the real truth regardign water of water rights using smoke and mirror tactics .
Ocean fishing license sales are also at a very low point in California and the DFW push is to convert anglers to large mouth bass fishing given the lucrative amount of money made off the tournaments, merchandise and related sales to this non native species. Simply put Large mouth bass fishing makes significantly more income than striped bass and is significantly easier to regulate. California seeks to drain more water resources from anadromous fish species then put the blame on striped bass as the cause .
2004-2006 i did juvenile index studies of both Striped bass and King salmon in the California Delta and these species having over a hundred years of cohabitation were in balance with record high juvenile numbers of each species proving successful spawning of both species then the "WATER RESOURCE GAMES" came to a peak. Vast acreage of California Delta water was pumped south and to farm fields and species numbers declined. WE have also seen actions such as the Prospect slough disaster AB measure 1806 where Tens of thousands of striped bass were killed in September of 2008 and anglers were initially told to stay back at gun point by officials then when exposed we as advocates were allowed access this slough where the water was being drained saving over 1800 adult striped bass . The losses taken however are still being felt by anglers and there was of course no apologies.
The DFG itself was busted for mismanagement of striped bass stamp funds when California required a striped bass stamp. These funds were used for Water fowl hunters as the DFG paid farmers to flood fields and offer hunting. To date the Court ordered restitution has never been honored. I have been a angler,advocate and research assistant for striped bass and have concerns where the future of the species will be as California's water issues increase.
So the "Thanks" should go out to all those such as yourself in support of this wonderful striped bass fishery we have in California and to all those giving both time ,money and educations efforts to support their future .
I attended the public zoom meeting hosted by DFG a couple of weeks ago regarding a petition for 20”-30” slot limit for stripers here in California. It turned out really well and hopefully it’ll get approved
@@jimbo4612 - that is interesting. Do you have a link to online publications regarding your study? I read a study that correlated predator effectiveness with low water levels due to the inability of the fry to disperse. But oddly, no one says the converse too loudly - more water means we will have good salmon survival rates and striped bass stocks. I don't have any skin in the game other than owning a fishing license and paying taxes. But I do like to understand the issues. Thanks!
@@MoreThanFishing Striped bass are still taking a bum rap for species declines as California Delta waters are depleted at an alarming rate . Biologically its been proven that over 80 species of California Delta birds ,fish,mammals and human error such as fish lost while water is pumped, consume highly valuable stocks of salmon yet striped bass are labeled as the major cause of the depletion's. Truth is as natural water flows changed , escapement rates of salmon changed. The DFG- DFW has made some efforts to take Coleman hatchery salmon to the ocean and also did some testing on pen rearing salmon in lower delta waters but money wise the DFW is facing severe challenges and those with a vested interest in water rights typically win when it comes to the Commissions votes on management of species. I have witnessed high mortality rates of salmon from issues such as releasing to much water which changes the oxygen balance. Twice at the nimbus dam on the American river, dam breaks killed 98% of the years salmon smolts there.Anglers saw sharp declines in returning year classes of salmon. Anglers asked why so few salmon and Striped bass were still labeled as the cause.
I worked with Caption Rodger Thomas of the Golden Gate Salmon association up to his passing in 2017 and also served on the California Striped bass association for a number of years and have watched the long process of water rights winning out over California fisheries for decades however anglers should not lose hope. The DFW has some biologists with management ideas that would work if given a chance but the question seems to always fall back on water regulations and financial resources.
Regarding a slot limit on striped bass the subject has been presented before however when it comes to license sales the game can change. Some anglers are not regular anglers in the know of species,they simply want to catch a big fish and a proposed limit can reduce license sales. As such its a fine balance to get anglers to buy a license then balance the fishery. Many anglers frustrated with heavy California regulations and having to pay heavy costs for licenses have simply quite fishing. California license costs are 76% more expensive than the nation average for a fishing license and the agency can't balance its books and claims lack of funds to build projects.
More so its very frustrating when captions with 40-50 years experience on the water with extremely valuable data on numbers are utterly ignored at DFW meetings and the Commission goes behind closed doors to make their votes. Presented evidence gets ignored and the game goes on. Anglers who love the sport are gonna keep fishing even with high costs and regulations but the lack of resources is again a big issue per DFW statements to involved parties.
Beyond a size limit I have proposed that select California waters be set off limits to striped bass angling during key spawning periods. There is a large number of anglers who trophy fish with intent of catch and release but it places a strain on spawning striped bass. Guides will scream their livelihood guiding anglers on these big bass would be lost but at some point the fish just need to be left alone and be given some protection along with some water. When i proposed this idea I got responses that striped bass numbers would explode threatening endangered salmon and other anadromous species numbers. This means those who screwed the flow of California Delta waters ultimately win. 100 plus years of cohabitation with high juvenile index numbers to prove the data loses to "WATER RIGHTS"
Its a long subject when you discuss slot limits given all the working parts. I'm fully in favor of the idea to save bigger breeding females and also to expand the genetic gene pool of traditional striped bass . I do know from face to face discussions there are bureaucrats in the California Legislative which do not fish not care about fish but have high responsibilities to build water resources and this is where there interests rest, so how do we convince these members that our fisheries are a long cherished tradition that we wish to pass on to future generations, they see growth and productivity with expanded land development as a higher priority.
Those sand drawings worked for me! Visualizing is always the hardest thing for me to do and your drawings were spot on.
Thank you for watching!! I’m glad this video helped!!
The drawing really put it together 👌🏼
I agree. Definitely helps to understand it better while he was drawing and explaining it.
I thought your gonna draw a piston(Mar.Engr subject) 😂 😁
Thanks i never understood were the sand bars holes are. Now i can read the waves thanks to your sand diagram thanks bro
Great tutorial! This information you shared would increase odds to catch a Striped Bass/surf perch. That's basically what you want when looking for a spot on the beach. In your 2nd example of a large hole I like to cast my lure on the edges right and left of the hole also taking in consideration white water. Another thing to keep in mind is the barometric pressure. Keep grinding! Keep the videos coming! Good stuff bro!
Really good instructional video! Thanks for all the insight and info!
Really enjoyed this video and the sand drawings! Thanks Jun!
Thank you Junh it’s a big help more people learn to fish especialy the beginner

Great information and tips! Your content makes me want to drive to the beach right now! Lol Keep up the great videos!
Loved the information on this. Thank you sir.
Thanks for watching
I like how you explain the structure of the surf. I'm always confused as an inexperienced Fisher guy. But this makes it a bit more understandable
Appreciate the tips pare!!!
Great video, thanks for your clear explanations for us surf fishing newbies. You make the hobby bigger and better. Anyone who would down-vote this is a jerk.
This is epic! thanks. can't wait to hit the beach and see if i can apply at least half of this.
Thank you Jun. My biggest opportunity is reading the surf. Being new to TH-cam as a informative content provider this will help my subscribers. Plus I always give a nod to my west coast Tubers on my channel
Great info. I’m going after striper today in a reservoir hope I get something!
As a freshwater fly angler just breaking into the salt this season this video really helped me understand beach structure! Excellent video and I believe it'll help me hook up this season!
I learned something today. 😎 Thank you.
Thank you for watching!!
I've seen plenty of surf fishing videos. This is the first one that explains (via drawings in the sand to make it easier) where the structures are and where fish will for the most part hanging out. Good job..and I will be subscribing...
Thanks for the tips that was actually very helpful! 🤙🏼
“It’s a long stretch deep hole”
Damn everything reminds me of her 😢
Great information 🎣🎣
Great video, Jun. Thank you.
This is a great tutorial!!
Morning jun, very informative video , thank you
Thank you for watching! Hope to see you on our tournament! I remember you from last year! Thank you for always supporting MTF!
Excellent explanation on the underwater structure.....Your sand illustration made it very easy to understand.....
Good examples brother 🤙🏽
You made it really easy to understand, I’m going fishing tm for my first time on the beach so I hope everything works out
OK Jun, two old people sitting in the den and laughing like crazy! My wife can't see you but she loves listening to you during your vids!
I can read the beach but not from watching videos. As a teen I grew up in Huntington Beach and learned from carrying a surfboard under my arm and walking out past the first break. When I hit the trough I would jump on my board and start paddling. When I hit the next sand bar the fin would hit it and I often ended up kissing my board on those sudden stops!
By drawing the sand map you made it understandable and fun. Thanks for another great video!! Next time call your wife!!!
😂 thanks for watching! Glad you guys enjoyed the video.
I wish you will read some fun comments for her as well. Best wishes to both of you!
Great explanation!
Love the way you breakdown how you choose spots and the drawing. You’re inspiring me to get out there
Sinigang always come to mind when I see Striped Bass. Thanks for the motivation Jun!
Hahah! Best for sinigang!
Great explanation on the sand never understood before but you expalined it very well.
Thanks for posting
Hahaha 2:08 love the game plan, almost like a beach attack. “Got it coach”
😂👍
Thanks for the tips!
Very nice content. Rarely thos info will be shared. Thank you. Can you have a video About fishing conditions? Ex. Swell, wind etc
great tips!!! thankyou!!
Thanks for watching!!
Yo!. Thats the best way to explain it and its understandable!. Thank you!!.
Awesome information
Thank you for watching!
Great explanation and I love the visual explanation in the sand.......You're the Best !
Fantastic tutorial, thanks for explaining things clearly 👍
This vid was really helpful in knowing where to cast. The drawing was great!!
Thank you for the tips. I just subscribed to your channel.
Thanks for sharing this information, very helpful in understanding how/when to surf fish for striped bass.
Very good explanation man.✌️
Thanks brother great information
Great video and explanation
Thank you for watching
Thanks bro! My son and I are learning how to surf fish in Marina CA. This helps a ton cheers!
Love your energy and passion for fishing for such an awesome species.
Sincerely, an east coast striper man
I love the drawing on the sand! I think that would help alot of people on how to reading the surf. Awesome job on explaining, drawing and making the video! 🎣 tight lines!
This was very helpful.
Thanks
I’m now ready to try some striped bass fishing after this video. Thanks for the tips, great explanation
Hey good information!!!
Best explanation ever for reading the surf.
Well explained my fishing comrade!!
Good job June
Excellent explanation. Never really understood until now. Thanks
Thank you very much
Thanks for the picture explanation it makes sense to me now lol
Absolutely correct pare. That’s how I do it here on Long Island. Salamat
Thank you for watching!!
This and drawings helped so much thank you! By the way what are some spots you recommend fishing becuase I live near that San Francisco area
It would be awesome to get some drone aerial footage and point out the same things about what type of structure you can see based on wave movement! Great job!
Unfortunately the areas up here are cover under nofly drone zone by GGNRA. The fines can be pretty great and the might confiscate the drone as well.
AWSOME INFO MATE
You are the best because that's exactly where I go and catch the big ones
Best explanation ever. seriously
like your style.. thank you
hi buddy, your very good at explaining how to read where to fish.
Gracias!
Nice!
Thanks so much for the tips, I love your videos! Is the 1st and 3rd structures basically same? I can't tell except maybe the first one has a bit of shallow water closer to you?
Good explanation
You're drawing was on point! Salamat!
The best video on sand bars and finding honey holes
Thanks jun
Very good explanation..I always wondered what to look for at the beach. I just keep throwing until I get lucky lol.
I love this video
Watching you, make me deplore the others, full of boloney "trying to sound like Executives of a big company" ruling the line of action, that not even them are able to understand.
You with a smile in your face and a simple "Castle on the sand" drawing more clear than the sky over, ruled the action to follow.
THE BEST VIDEO ON THIS MATTER.
Hey this is big fred looks like you just made a picture of a sand crab (lol) you got sand crab on the brain, thanks for expertise always always more than fishing, I’ll get out there soon after I get rid of all this halibut!!!! Thanks again
Gracias por tus consejos para pescar valen un millón.
De nada. ¡Gracias por ver! ¡Por favor comparta con aquellos que puedan necesitar esta información! Buen dia!!
@@MoreThanFishing Siempre comparto tus vídeos son muy emocionantes y llenos de buenos consejos.
great info! hope to use it to catch my one surf striper of the decade lol
Hahahaha
Hope to see out their on the 9th
Stay safe my friend
yo Jun! another great video! quick question is this also the same game for surf perch? (if not, can you briefly explain the difference would be?) talamat poo!
Thank you 🙏 for watching
It goes the same for both Surf Perch and Striper, if you are using sandcrabs as bait. However, if you are using lure, you most likely will get Striper to bite than Surf Perch.
Love your illustration in details 🤣🤣🤣
Can you do a video on recomended gear. Looking to upgrade my crap rod and reel to something more reliable for striper and surf perch. What rods and reels do you recommend in the 100-200 dollar range?
Also what lure are you using for striper in this video?
I need info on what size hooks to use with sandcrab for striper and surfperch
Yes, I’ll make one ☝️
If you want to get a peak of the gears I used, here’s the link Check out this page from More Than Fishing E-Tackle Shop www.amazon.com/shop/morethanfishing?ref=inf_pub_morethanfishing
Great video Junh.thanks for the lesson .what is the weight of the lure?
Thanks for the great info! Any tips on how to tell how deep the holes are? Is usually the darker the color the more deeper it is?
Yes usually the darker color the deeper it is. The best way to tell the depth is by going to the same spot during negative low tide.
Love the drawing! May I ask what swim bait you used?
Hey Jun. I live in San Francisco and never went fishing before but I’m down to learn. Any way you can teach me in person?
Drawing helped 🔥🔥
Great info, still trying to get a good striper ....lots of perch but no big striper. Thx
What would I expect to catch plugging in the winter? exaple - this week lol.
Sup Jun back to your surf videos .. Which I like.. This is your elementnot kayak fishing 🎣.
which wader are you using? seems some stockingfoot one, also you are wearing the shimano evair? planned to buy this combo too, but worried about too much sand in the shoe which is uncomfortable and may weaken the bootie. any suggestions? thanks.
I know you can't really name specific spots, but are the areas north or south of Half Moon Beaches calmer? I'm used to SoCal where the wave strengths are way lower at the HMB beaches so I can jig artificials...
What type of fishing line and lure do you recommend and size pole ?
