Bodega Bay Fishing | King Salmon Halibut Dungeness Crab

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 พ.ย. 2024
- I launched in Bodega Bay California with the plans to fish for King Salmon, Halibut, Lingcod and Dungeness Crab. This was my first salmon trip of 2020. It was successful. We caught three, two nice size keepers for early in the year. There stomachs were stuffed with krill. We fished for them off Tomales Point. We also dropped one crab pot and picked up 5 keepers. The halibut were not biting on our live smelt. For the salmon we used kripple anchovy and watermelon apex. I got some very cool underwater camera shots with the GoFish Cam. Thanks for watching. Please subscribe.
Just wanted to say that I appreciate the fact that you tell people where you go as to give encouragement to the rest of the new fishermen out there.We see a lot of videos on TH-cam but everyone is so secretive about where they are. Please dont change that because so far you have been very informative and helpful.Keep up the good work. God bless
happy your enjoying the videos! Thanks for watching them!
Glad that crab got you two for sharing this secret location!!
Hardly a secret, every place these guys went is where a lot of guys have been going for a long time.
Couple nice fish, that crab got you and your buddy both and then gave you the slip. Makes for a funny story at least.
Thanks for the shoutout! It was nice to finally meet you out there. Awesome video, especially the underwater footage. So jelly of the salmon! 💪 ✌️
yeah man no problem. Hopefully it gets you a sub or two. You only do kayak? I am sure I will be looking for a boat buddy at some point this salmon season.
ChrisPfish I think it did 🙏. I’m definitely down for some salmon fishing, I’ll shoot you an email!
Great job those are some nice salmon! Going in and out of tomales is only bad at an extreme outgoing tide unless you have a big boat it gets like a class 5 river! I remember listening to the Elk bugle when I fished there. 👍😃🐟🦀
Thanks for sharing!
You're the man! Checking fish size and breed and running cameras. I would be so overwhelmed. Always appreciate your videos.
I appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching, happy you enjoy the videos!
Nice video man! Much appreciated, blooper reels, techniques, whole experience. Very cool, good job!
Chris, excellent work! You’d be a great halibut/salmon guide!
Hi Paul. Thanks I appreciate the kind words!
Dude, I have been watching your channel for the last 3 months and I must admit, you catch fish and good on you.
Thanks bro, I appreciate all the support a lot!
Great video, great salmons, nic crabs and a great fishing trip. Awesome brother. I will be up there to buddy up with you before the salmon season is over.
Thanks man, happy you liked the video, thanks for watching it. when you went out in hmb you see any get caught?
@@ChrisPfish2 just a few small keeper salmon.s.
Banger video my good sir 🤟🏽
much appreciated, happy you enjoyed it!
Some nice ones Sunday, we hooked up to 5 and landed one that was 37” and 32lbs it was insane! 20 minute fight!
wow that is incredible. I hope to get a 30 pounder this year. Seems to be a lot of big ones already. You along the marin coast line?
Nice thanks for sharing. Good video even with the glitch. Stay safe
I appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching!
Nice underwater camera view! we got some this weekend too
I love the underwater camera. Water was green and dirty. Lets wait until we get some clear water then its even better. Yeah I saw you video, awesome job out there. You were so close to shore, was that duxbury? thanks for watching!
Another exceptional video! Which bait you like better for Salmon, Kripl Anchovy or Apex? Thank you for the swell scoop.
early in the season like now I like the apex. Anchovies in the late summer fall. Apex is easier to use so I recommend that for first few times out. Thanks for watching, happy you enjoyed it!
Lmfao. Damn crabs! Nice job on the salmon. I might buy that camera for albacore!
buy that camera. They are $150, worth it, so much fun to watch when you get home. Thanks for watching!
Haha no way 😂😂 I wasn’t expecting that at all when you lose the crab 🤣 hey at least you went home with 10 pounder 👍🏻👏🏼🎣 awesome video 🔥🔥
yeah too bad, it was a perfect crab. I was not expecting that either lol. Thanks for watching!
Nice haul
thanks reece!
Nice catch!
thanks for watching!
Wow, thanks Chris, I was wondering how/where you bled your fish, good idea. I really like the way your boat is set up! What a bummer on that crab! Not only the loss but the pinch. I got double pinched on the opening week. He managed to get me on the top of the hand, blood everywhere!! First crab of the season. My bad, I had him by the back legs and was holding it too loose! It was one of those maybe keeper size too. Just not snug enough in the comb. Took a week to quit hurting. Could you show how you check to see if the crab is a soft shell, I know but it took me a while to learn how to test them. Wow, two thumbs down? Whats not to like?
thanks for the comment. Yeah i was paying more attention to the camera then the crab. I wish i had it on film flying out of the boat. Yeah about the thumbs down, I wish they would say why. I get a few pretty quick when I post a video. Probably just the same people. I had one person tell me I look like and idiot and stop acting like a fishing guide. It was deleted a few hours later. All you can do is laugh it off. Till the next one...
Great video! lol!
I appreciate you watching, thank you!
Dude I died with that crab. That's awesome. What a fighter! He lives on to reproduce or end up in my trap! haha, glad you guys still had a great day and ended with a nice mixed bag. I'll be out soon.
Happy I was able to make you laugh with my blunder lol. I hope you catch him next winter when he is 8". Thanks for watching and good luck!
Good job guys

@@ChrisPfish2 yes
Epiiccc!
Hi Clayton, thanks man, happy you liked the video!

Bro it’s super dope how u triple your views x your friends on here straight killing the game
Thanks man I appreciate the positive vibe and watching my videos!
Great video, have a 14 foot Valco, I miss going out to Tomales Bay I wish freaking Marin County would open up so I can get out there fishing man you guys made me jealous lol great video
Hi Scott, thanks for watching, happy you enjoyed the video! Good luck when you go out!
Can you show in detail, how you setup your rig. Main line to swivel, to flasher, what type of flasher, brand of terminal tackle ect. How long are leaders, what weight of line.
Yeah I will show more detail next time. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
I was all "What the hell? Why is he grabbing that giant crab with his bare hands?!?"
Damn I thought they were at 44 ft! Nice work.
lol
Now that's some funny SH*%...Sorry but I thought that crap only happened to me :)
Lol, yeah that was some funny sh&*. Thanks for watching!
Nice bro wish I can go with you
Hey im going out saturday and sunday rockfishin i dont have a salmon set up but im lookin for a good spot for some rockfish and lings
Thanks for it the videos! Good content and a lot of info. What are you fishing out of?
Happy you enjoy the videos! I have a 2014 Lund Impact 1675. Thanks for watching!
ChrisPfish I am downsizing from a 23ft walk around and have been looking for a tracker or similar in that size range. Just don’t want to limit myself too much. Fish Tahoe mainly but also bay and ocean
Great videos, keep them coming! What app do you use forecast the surf/ocean conditions? What are the conditions you look for before heading out? Thanks!!
those are the bast eating salmon in my opinion, I rate them better than columbia river springers, what people say are superior. Give me a norcal may/june krill feed fish anyday. greetings from portland oregon
Hi Erik, thanks for watching my video! Yes it was very good. I bbq it with a teriyaki glaze. It was excellent!
Nice work!, we went out Sunday and didn’t even get a bite!! Where did you hookem at? Bird rock?
yeah 180 feet of water off bird. Make sure to keep adjusting depth until you find something. They have been all over from what I hear. Thanks for watching, you will get some soon.
🔥
Another great video. Did the salmon bite coincide with a tide change? And oops on losing that big beautiful crab!
exactly oops on losing the crab. Some people think its the end of the world. not for someone who fishes, all part of the variance lol. Yes it was right after the tide change,
@@ChrisPfish2massive kudos to you for posting the loss. The kind of honesty that makes your videos so consistently fun to watch.
Damn that big crab was a fighter, deserved the escape.
Hi Cody, yeah I feel the same way, he lives to fight another day and turn into a 8" for someone. thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing your outing...I enjoyed it! How long were your setbacks for the salmon? Trolling speed? Did your FF help mark the salmon?
yeah thanks for watching and leaving a comment! for setbacks you mean from the downrigger ball? maybe 40 feet. Trolling speed 2-3mph. I use the FF to mark locations i hook up on the gps. I use to locate bait, and sometimes you can see salmon on the bait, but mainly what depth the bait is at.
Nice video Chris 👍 What vhf channel were you on where you got the salmon update? Thanks
I was on channel 69. Thanks for watching, I am happy you liked the video!
@@ChrisPfish2 69 the family channel.
Nice. Does your downrigger swivel so you can put the arm parallel to the boat?
yeah i am going to do that as well next time. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
i like that u keep the bloopers to share - it keeps the realism alive haha. what kinda reel you using for the salmon rod? looks like a calcutta 400D.
yeah thats the reel I am using. Happy you like the video and my bloopers.
hi chris beginning fisherman here. do you know of any good spots off the highway in tomales or bodega bay from the rocks?
I've gone out a total of around 25 combined hours and have gotten 1 bite and same with my buddy. we cast 1.5 ounce weights with squid
Hey Chris I got a 12 ft boat with a 8 horsepower Honda Outboard you think I'll be safe out there where you were at?
lol oh man thats a great question. Maybe 1 or 2 days out of the year. Look for the swell under 2ft at 18 sec. wind high of 6mph for the day and a very slow moving tide. Stay safe, thanks for watching!
I would go out there to halibut fish but I don’t have a big enough boat
Stay away from the entrance (Potato Patch) at low tide.
17:00 lmaooooo
Hey bro. Was tomales launch closed?
it was on this day (end of may), it maybe open as of now. thanks for watching!
Ouch, double pinch...
lol, thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
