Hey guys :) Miss you guys! I was able to get out there and fish and film! hope you guys like the video! How to catch halibut using the Rodney Special :) Stay tuned for the next video next week! Ill be rolling out 1 video per week for 5 weeks :)
bro stoked on the vid, in the last three weekends leading up to memorial day weekend vie fished every saturday and i have 15 halibuts in three weeks at spanish landing straits in my hobie. out of the fifteen only could keep 4. they were mostly on live bait and 2 on jerk chicken gulp
Rodney, I love how you're very specific on what gear you use and how you use it. That sets you apart AND above from the other fishing channels. I go jogging often at Liberty Station, but I think I'll have to head out with my tackle next time and try my luck. I rarely see people fish during low tide, and then you easily show that it's possible during those conditions.
Yes sir!!!! Thank you rodney for taking the time to make another killer video amidst the chaos of life. Buy this man some coffee!!!! I’m already in, who else?? Much love brotha 🙏🤙
Welcome back Rodney! As usual, I still haven’t caught my 1st halibut, however, I haven’t been fishing lately so that too goes against my odds. As I said last time on your last halibut video that I will let you know using your techniques! Thanks again Rodney, you rock!!
always love your comments. I see on you post, that it indicates I give you the highest amount of hearts from anyone on this channel! I need to send you a thank you subscriber package or something :D
Hey Rodney I have been following you for a few months and have learned quite a bit. Am looking forward to using your technique to catch my first halibut, Thanks Brother 🙏
That’s awesome Rodney! You got me pumped to get out to the surf! Hopefully I’ll find some halibuts down in my area. We always enjoy your videos Brotha. 🎣
I’m on the hunt for my first hali! I’m in Esco for like 2 more weeks. Gonna hit somewhere around Carlsbad tomorrow. This taught me alot! Subd for sure! Thanks bro
Awesome vid man I'm coming to San Diego in March for a vacation and I really appreciate the video, also was your 1k like keep up the good work brother!
Really cool what you showed with the drop shot! Just curious, wouldn't the weight get caught up in the rocks dragging it along the bottom like that? That's what I'm running into fishing out here.
I hope this works. I’m going fishing this weekend in Mission Bay for spotties, corvina and halibut. This will be my first time surf fishing and I will be fishing in Fiesta Island.
Are these the bridges off the 8 getting to the beaches? If so how do you access that area? If you don’t mind I’d highly appreciate the help. Brand new to fishing
Ayeee Rodney!! Welcome back! Hope all is well. Thanks for the video. I got into fishing from watching your videos over a year ago. I’ve only caught two 19” Hali since. But still on the hunt for the keeper. Started off shore pounding and now on a Hobie. Hope to see more vidz this year.😎🤙🏽
Hey Rodney , what are some good spots in SD to catch halibut? I usually fish by the uss midway but I only catch bass, croakers, and sting ray over there
Hey Rodney I just fished this spot, every cast I was getting snagged I could not avoid it, also i think the water level rose , do you recommend anything ?
Hey Rodney, great videos, I started watching them a couple of years ago when I got back into trout fishing, now I am watching your Halibut videos and loving them. Got a question, what would be a good shore halibut rod and real setup for someone on a very tight budget? I would be fishing the Oceanside/Carlsbad area. I fished 5'5" Walmart combo setup for trout, was going to try that but not sure if it would work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated brother.
Great videos and you should really make more and I been trying to catch some halibut but it’s seems like I got no luck is there any specific location in San Diego or how far from shore because I haven seen many videos but mostly they are on a kayak and they say 200 ft off shore any recommendations?
Any advice on how to target Halibut specifically? Drop shot works amazing but I always seem to just catch Spotties and Sand Bass (not complaining tho). Most success I’ve had with halibut from shore was a 17’ inch “shaker”
Hey Rod. Great video but I had a quick question for you. I've been fishing from the shore with the same drop shot method, along with hook up baits, and a lucky craft, and i haven't had any luck all week. Ive gone to Spanish landing, liberty station, dana landing, I've been to all of the shores near there and still no luck. Any suggestions?
@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel I tried harbor island for the third time this morning and still no luck. Im using the same white grubs you had on in a couple of your videos, maybe I should switch it up
@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel no specific requests! Your videos got me on my first fish ever. Caught in SD bay. I’m just glad I can give back just a fraction of what you gave me! 🤙🏼
Rodney, I fished across from where you fish, could I legally park at that parking lot behind you without getting my car towed, does the hotel own that parking area?
Nice fish!! I was trying to see where on MBay you were. It looked like you might be across from Dana Point or the Bahia. It was hard to make it out from here in Kansas. lol. I think we're coming out this summer. Keep it coming and I'll send you some coffee this week. - Scott
Great video. You are always informative and have inspired me to start fishing. Thank you man. Where was this in SD? I've been driving all over town trying to find what kind of water I like to fish best. Again, thank you for everything you do, keep it up!
I still haven’t caught my first halibut (even though I’ve hooked up on some) so I’ve been watching your videos trying to catch my first hali in san diego or mission bay :)
Hey brotha glad to see you still out, great effin catch mah dude keep it up, Haven’t caught much up here In Redding but ima keep tryin 😢 keep it up brotha great work love your videos 🤙🏽
Where's this exact fishing spot. I live in sd and haven't been able to find any good shorline fishing spots. P.S. - I'm more of a freshwater fisherman, but there isn't any solid spots down here for fresh bass.
@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel thanks for replying. But I what I meant was can you use a jig head hook for the actual hook that has the lure on it? and then 6-10 inches below it is a drop shot weight

Rodney hope all is good brother !
I've got 10lb braid and using 4lb floro is that a good combo for trout and panfish?
Or should I use 6to8, is the sensitivity better ?
Rodney, I love how you're very specific on what gear you use and how you use it. That sets you apart AND above from the other fishing channels. I go jogging often at Liberty Station, but I think I'll have to head out with my tackle next time and try my luck.

Thanks ! I really appreciate that. I truly enjoy sharing the fishing adventure with all you guys. Hope you have a great fishing next time out

Much love brotha 🙏🤙
Thanks Benjie! im editing our fishing trip next !
Best San Diego fishing TH-camr! As a beginner there is so much to learn, your channel has helped me a ton

Whole lotta bs
Nice halibut. I miss guiding in Alaska but traveling and making TH-cam videos isn’t half bad.
Rodney you’re such a beast fishing the d shot for halibut, you catch em on command and I’ve only caught 1 legal size hali in the last 2 years!
RODNEY!! Glad to see u healthy and back at it big bro!!! Hope life is treating u well and thanks for the video
thanks man! life is treating me very well. Always grinding regardless if im not fishing :) hope you enjoy!
That shoreline is severely underrated, nice job!
Super underrated :) It was a nice way to unwind
@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel hey where it located at? Been starting to fish saltwater a lot more in sandiego
Welcome back Rodney-nice hali!
Thank you !! Good to post again . Feels good to edit
Hey Rodney I have been following you for a few months and have learned quite a bit. Am looking forward to using your technique to catch my first halibut, Thanks Brother 🙏

Thanks brotha ! I’m in mammoth now , going to try and catch that trout with a baby haha
I’m on the hunt for my first hali! I’m in Esco for like 2 more weeks. Gonna hit somewhere around Carlsbad tomorrow. This taught me alot! Subd for sure! Thanks bro
3:58 that hali is camouflaged so well he looks like a waterspot on your lense. Great video. Thanks for posting.
ha! for sure ! thanks for watching
Rodney! Your back brotha! Keep it up we miss you! I fish the North County Beaches all the time maybe we can fish one day. 😎🤙 love your channel!
Thanks brotha ! I’ll be fishing Northcounty beaches once the beans start showing . Hit me up on the DMs on Instagram , maybe we can meet up :)
Hey Rodney! Where in SD bay is good to fish for halibut? I’ve never been before so I’m not sure where to go
Long time no see Rod! Welcome back!
Where along San Diego bay is good for fishing? Looking for to take my son fishing. Love the videos!
Awesome vid man I'm coming to San Diego in March for a vacation and I really appreciate the video, also was your 1k like keep up the good work brother!
Any suggestions on a rod for a new angler? My dad is there in San Diego and wants to get into it.
Really cool what you showed with the drop shot! Just curious, wouldn't the weight get caught up in the rocks dragging it along the bottom like that? That's what I'm running into fishing out here.

Hey Rodney, was wondering what kind of polarized sunglasses you use and what lens color you think is the best for San Diego bay
My first halibuts I caught were from your older videos I watch and learn … thank you
Great video. Two questions: where is that spot? And would you eat a halibut you caught there? Thanks.
My dude where in San Diego do you recommend fishing at..?
Nice catch Rodney! Any preference for the curly tail grub over a fluke or paddle tail?
Such a good question , I preferably like flukes in deeper water like 40 ft . And grubs and paddle tail on 20 ft and shallow
Haven't seen you in a while, I'm glad you are back posting videos 🤙😀😁
Thanks man, I will be posting more . Ill be going back to school at the end of the summer. So I have some good amount of fishing/filming lined up :)
Hey Rodney , what are some good spots in SD to catch halibut? I usually fish by the uss midway but I only catch bass, croakers, and sting ray over there
I like trying harbor island :) good luck !

You are one of the best and never forget it.

As always, very enjoyable to watch. Love from north county
:) thanks for the positive vibes! Stay tuned for more !
Have double drop looped with 2 different colors at Mission Bay. Pretty productive.
Great to see you back on the water, hope to run into you out there. Ran into bearz G a few times already.
Always coming in clutch! Great job Rodney, keep them coming!!
Thanks Victor! Stay tuned! I will be making a some deep sea content soon !

I dig that you release them. Nice.

I would keep trying ! Try harbor island in between Tom hams light house and the park :)
@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel I tried harbor island for the third time this morning and still no luck. Im using the same white grubs you had on in a couple of your videos, maybe I should switch it up
This is not harbor island right? Dont see any rocks. Taking family along, preferably sand beach and this seem like it, where about is this? Thanks.
Dude I didn’t know your ko-fi existed! Stoked to support bro!
Brotha thanks !! Dude means a lot . Let me know a video request :)
@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel no specific requests! Your videos got me on my first fish ever. Caught in SD bay. I’m just glad I can give back just a fraction of what you gave me! 🤙🏼

Ya still got the touch. Good Job out there Rodney!
Where is this? Heading to San Diego soon need shore fishing spots please

@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel Thank you so much! I'll check out those spots sometime this week. Love the videos, keep them coming!
I still haven’t caught my first halibut (even though I’ve hooked up on some) so I’ve been watching your videos trying to catch my first hali in san diego or mission bay :)
Yooo just got in to fishing around San Diego, haven't had much luck so far 😅. Hoping this helps me land my first halibut, thank you for posting.
Hey brotha glad to see you still out, great effin catch mah dude keep it up,
Haven’t caught much up here In Redding but ima keep tryin 😢 keep it up brotha great work love your videos 🤙🏽
Where's this exact fishing spot. I live in sd and haven't been able to find any good shorline fishing spots.

You can almost see my son's housing from there (USCG) nice well done video not over produced like some are👍👍
I work at the naval med center on a contract with agiliti health! Maybe I’ll see you there or out fishing!
Will this work in any area like the harbors or jetty’s???

What is the best place in San Diego for halibut fishing
Nice catch! Is that near Liberty Station?
nice video always the best info
thanks! Ill be going deep sea fishing before Ill be going back to school. So stay tuned for some deep sea content :)
Hey Rodney, way to represent NMCSD! I had 3 tours at that command.
Loved working there . Great 4 years there helping people Get back on their feet. Now I’m at Camp Pendleton :)
Thanks trying to get into fishing and I live in SD
Is this behind Liberty station ???
Great video Rodney! Can you use a jig head hook for drop shot?
For sure ! However that bottom weight will catch up on unseen rocks and structure if there’s a hook on it
@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel thanks for replying. But I what I meant was can you use a jig head hook for the actual hook that has the lure on it? and then 6-10 inches below it is a drop shot weight
was this at lib?
Thanks Rodney I can use the help ,
You got this ! Good luck fishing out there !
hi rodney i tried this at spanish landing today and I kept getting eel grass. Are there places with less eel grass
Yeah , for sure , you have to be mobile tho . I was hitting a lot of grass too . That’s why I like the drop shot , the lure hovers over the grass
@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel my weight keeps getting stuck on the grass sometimes
Welcome back thank you
Hey Rodney, where in San Diego bay is this?
Looks like Rodney never gave up his honey hole
I will be trying this in the sf bay asap.
Good luck fishing in sf! Halibut fishing should be good !
In that spot is there a lot of grass that gets on your drop shot?
There are patches, but I believe there is more sand than grass
Were can i finfd that bait in san diego
Anyone know if theirs a certain time of day thats best to fish for Halibut in the bay?
Where in the bay were you fishing? Good to see you back.
Thanks :) liberty station . Good luck !
