Matts, just wanted to let you know i was up late due to an anxiety attack but watching your video put my mind at ease. thank you for being there once again, how i found your channel was 5 years ago when i broke my ankle and lost my job, watching you i forget my worries.
Hey bro, if you have the opportunity just get out there to the ocean. Or plan for it and look forward to it. We're all here because we relate with Matts and he represents someone struggling and succeeding. You just have to get out there even if you fail
@@julesl6910 thanks for your supportive and kind words. I have been out more doing clamming and such. I just want to let Matts know how he has helped me out. I hope to see you out there too Jules, tight lines. 😊
@@alexruwhiu7384 you must have seen my avatar picture, in tomales bay there is a diverse group of clams from geoduck, two types of gaper clams, Washington clams, razor clams, blood clams, and steamer clams. I target the first 3 species primarily but all the others I have caught as a bycatch. Steamers are easy so I let the kids do them. Clams taste great and as long as you are not drinking the clam juice it’s not salty. Sashimi, deep fried, in congee, salads, etc.
I was fishing for lingcod up here in Depoe Bay one day, and this guy taught me a trick to get your jig back when you get snagged. You release all tension on the line and you wait for one minute. Set a timer. Don’t apply any pressure until the minute is up. I’ve retrieved so many lures that way. It requires discipline. And patience. I’m telling you, it works. I’ve actually added a minute if it didn’t come free after one minute and gotten it back. Try it. It works. Like the Egyptians used to say thousands of years ago, “Or your mummy back.”
@@julesl6910 Give it lots of slack. Zero tension. As I said, it doesn’t always work. But when it does come off and you get your rig back, you’ll be very happy. Give it a try, Jules. You’ll see.
Yeah bro, 72 hour fasts become super easy especially when you cut out processed carbohydrates, refined sugars and hydrogenated plant and seed oils. I lost 55 pounds fishing and fasting and reversed my diabetes, fatty liver and high blood pressure. I also do a 48-72 hour fast at least once a month along with an OMAD style daily diet. The only thing I changed recently is eating more freely on the weekends but nothing too crazy. Thank you for inspiring me years ago. Your videos really helped me to learn how to fish, something I always wanted to learn since sharing fond memories of my Grandfather surf fishing when I was a kid.
@@ReefDonkey I do a ketogenic diet so once you're fat adapted you don't feel hunger like you do when you eat processed carbs and refined sugars. You actually have to remind yourself to eat. As long as you keep up with minerals by putting seasalt under your tongue a few times a day and keep some water in you, you feel satiated.
I know you’re prolly mad busy with the fam and stuff man but we miss you Matts ! Can’t wait for your next video to come out I’m always checking almost everyday :) sending some love brotha
Great video with spectacular views and beautiful clean water. I live and fish off of Long Island NY and it’s mostly sandy beaches except for the North and South fork boulder fields. Congrats on your fast but it’s tough the first day but for me gets easier after that. Stay strong brother and love all the gear I purchased!
I've been Parting through a few different catch and cook videos and their are a Ton that are great to watch. Your channel is always a Big inspiration to myself and my friends, no doubt. for Sur
@@FishermansLife I’ll definitely go place the reservation! I’ve been needing a rod like this for awhile now and you’ve given me the best option! Thanks for the heads up Brotha🤙🏽
Just bought some merchandise yesterday picked up a longsleeve UV shirt and custom Ling King shirt. Been watching your channel since 2015? Glad I could help support this content.
I've been fasting like that for almost 20 years now. If you can handle it, it's definitely worth it. And make sure you stay well hydrated! Thats extremely important. 👍
I did a 21 day fast in 2004. After day 10, you know all the toxins are leaving your body. By day 21, I really wasn't hungry, but I started eating every other day for a week or so. I felt great for a year or so. It's a great idea to fast like that once in a while. Late winter is probably best because of our natural cycles.
Even though, many times, fish are off the bottom in that type of location, of the first spot. I would try mid depth as a first choice to avoid snags and just to really gauge the area. Fish are not always directly off the bottom. Especially, the big ones! In the summer months, you will get the real big fish off the top.
Super curious about the fasting regimen. I've been wanting to try a fast for the health benefits but I'm already a pretty lean person an don't want to lose the muscles from a loss of calories.
if youve got some fat i think youll be fine as you dont easily start burning muscle, unless youre really not used to burning fat perhaps, still, should be minimal.
Always enjoy your videos man keep it up and yea it sucks that fishing equipment is so expensive and is only getting more and more expensive I enjoy fishing aswell every time I watch your videos inspires me to go back but how expensive it is makes me not want to but that’s just an excuse but keep up the good vids man.
Dang bro , almost but just not big enough. It goes to show if you were in a total survival mode you'd be doing just fine with those two nice Ling cods .thank God for the good old avocado ! Thanks again Matt .your fishing bro from the beautiful Channel Islands in ventura So. California .👍
You gotta do some fishing in Corpus Christi Texas some time, probably the best fishing out there, for sure you should try to link up with Thesherfishing out in CC as well
I started drinking 2 gallons of water daily bc I daily drank beer for a good 3 months prior, but kept that strict 2 gallons of water daily for a year and a half prior to daily drinking beer. I also was on a strict clean diet with fruits and veggies for a good year and a half
I lost too much weight fasting twice a month for a year so I stopped. But I developed this sharpness or clear headedness that is like drinking a cup of coffee without feeling jumpy. If you're just drinking water, you're losing minerals that your brain needs to keep firing. Try drinking gatorade or pedialyte. Take care.
You should try a bass hook and set it up weedless texas rig style you can swap weights depending on current conditions and you wont get snagged with that exposed hook
they aren't that hard to find, 4 years ago when I started watching FL videos I also wanted to know where every spot is. But no one will tell you, so I learned how to find them using google maps and other imagery
I'm about your age and I will say that I agree with just about everything you said in this video. I fish, and I also do the 72 hour fasting. It's pretty rough the first 1-2 day, but at day 3, my body got used to it and I feel alert, clearer vision, feels great. Fasting is good for us when done properly. Obviously you want to drink water like you are, and also take some electrolytes.
You need to make a fishing trip out to FL. Spend a month head down teh North east coast, all the way down, and back up on the west coast . Hitting up them fishing, crabs and scallops. Hella tight.
Stonestown, 50+ years ago we used to shop that place. After school at State college we'd stop for a slice. Good memories and too fishing the rocks off Montara. I'd catch mostly perch. Sorry, no fasting for this man.
Hey Matt, do you have a P.O. Box id be able to send some fishing lures and gear to try out? I work for a small company in Everett, Washington called Fisherman’s Gold. I’d really like for you to try out some new plastics baits we’ve designed and see how well they work with the fish down in cali, would love to hear back from you and as always love your videos, thank you -Austin
I want you to have your own lake. Not as a competition but as something for everyone. To test new gear, get feedback and in general something for everyone to be a part of. Self sustaining lake. Joe Robinet a survilst needs one to.
I tried a one day fast and could barely do it. I learned later that you should start light if you've never fasted before. I swear everyone was tempting me, they were out there grilling ribs and everything 😭Gotta say though, food never tasted so good. I was savoring every bite afterwards. Can't imagine what it'd be like to starve, or be hungry like that all the time. 72 hours is wild
I had gastric sleeve surgery like a decade ago. I never feel hunger and still can't eat more than a measuring cup of food every 30m. Sometimes I forget to eat for a few days till I get light headed....protein shakes are what I remember to eat with.

Awesome to see your own travel rod !!

awww man i wish your fishermans life street wouldve been in september 2023 cuz it will be the first time that ill be in america , SF
btw great video!
That hook set on that second fish was textbook perfect.
Kudos. Fasting that long is commendable. I barely make it 24hrs.
I've been Parting through a few different catch and cook videos and their are a Ton that are great to watch. Your channel is always a Big inspiration to myself and my friends, no doubt. for Sur
hahaha I got the reference
Didn't know this spot was fishable
Great video as always Matt’s! I had the no excuse rod in my cart to find out they sold out! Hopefully on the next drop I get one💪
We're restocking march 21st. If you want to order now and reserve it I just set it up online to do so. Or feel free to wait!!
@@FishermansLife I’ll definitely go place the reservation! I’ve been needing a rod like this for awhile now and you’ve given me the best option! Thanks for the heads up Brotha🤙🏽
Dr. Lingcod.!!!! I love the rock fishing from shore.
Just bought some merchandise yesterday picked up a longsleeve UV shirt and custom Ling King shirt. Been watching your channel since 2015? Glad I could help support this content.
I remember when Outdoor Pro Shop had Big Hammers for like .75-1.00 each. Looooong ago. Lead heads were cheap too. Great video none the less
I've had the same experience with swim baits while fishing off my kayak! Lings love them
I've been fasting like that for almost 20 years now. If you can handle it, it's definitely worth it. And make sure you stay well hydrated! Thats extremely important. 👍
Always great videos. Glad to see on a friday
Great Job Man🎣💪🏾💯❗️
Hats off to an ethical fisherman for tossing that LC back! So discouraging to see guys keeping under-size fish. You know who you are.
Awesome video thank you for sharing i have a question Ling Cog fish are they good eating not sure if we have it here in Texas
hey how are ya bro, health wise.. should def take a little break of course but post updates or sum
Keep slinging those baits bro! Hope to one day hit you up about crabbing spots 🦀
Great to hear about the street fair. Now, will there be butter for sale?
Around 70 hr.. you really feel great and clear.. good job!!! Best thing we can do is bring back ancient ways
Love you, Brother! Best channel evah! Wish I could come to your event, cannot! Keep on the vidyas!, Fishermans Life is the ish!
The man the myth the legend. I remember when you had 150k subs
That's one of my favorite spots tons of black and yellows have yet to catch a ling there well done!
Hey Matts hope you are doing well, caught up to your videos and saw you haven't put a new one out, hope all is well
Have a question. Will your cable baiter hooks work for bobber fishing on the jetty for salmon. Just asking
good video mate keep it up like a documentary

I wasn’t able to go to the last one and now it lands on my birthday I have to go now for sure !!!!!!🎉 and I just bought the new sweater !!!!😊
Nice video, thanks!
Matts, I gotta send you some of these Battlestar XLS Weighted Swimbait Hooks I know you’ll love em
Love your channel
Nice cast at 8:25 🔥 I need to practice that one forsure
Have a great weekend, brother.

I felt great for a year or so. It's a great idea to fast like that once in a while. Late winter is probably best because of our natural cycles.
What "toxins"?
Patiently waiting for a new video currently watching old videos I can watch them all day all time favorite TH-camr ever 😊🥲
Ever tried one of those bobber fish finders? I want to try the garmin one.
Cool hyperlapse!

Greeting from El Salvador!
Ok Matts I'll mark it on the calendar. Flying in from the pacific northwest!
I bet you could smell the fish in the water after 72 hours 🤣🤣🤣
Love your videos bro!!! To bad lingcod was short

Have you tried hookless artificial bait and jig heads? Seems ideal with all the snags you get.
Good Video Matt 📹 👍. I have done the 72 hour fast. Great results. Does a body good 👍.
Stay Safe ❤️ 💙 🙏 🙏
Question: What is your camera/mic setup!!!????
"Gonna cast the swim bait 1 more time" proceeds to cast for another hour. That's me every time I fish......
Dang bro , almost but just not big enough. It goes to show if you were in a total survival mode you'd be doing just fine with those two nice Ling cods .thank God for the good old avocado ! Thanks again Matt .your fishing bro from the beautiful Channel Islands in ventura So. California .👍
next time i make a trip to the states I'm gonna go to one of your fairs :)
When you gonna try a hand line video with Cuban yoyos? You'll have a blast
Always like hearing names I remember when living in SF.," Stonestown" place next to SF State college.
You gotta do some fishing in Corpus Christi Texas some time, probably the best fishing out there, for sure you should try to link up with Thesherfishing out in CC as well
how do you keep your hook from clinging unto a rock?
I was at last year's street fair I was the one photo bombing with the 49ers jacket.... Will b there 2 support again!!!!
I started drinking 2 gallons of water daily bc I daily drank beer for a good 3 months prior, but kept that strict 2 gallons of water daily for a year and a half prior to daily drinking beer. I also was on a strict clean diet with fruits and veggies for a good year and a half
Respect the fast brotha
3day fasting!? well done . enjoy lunch👊
That’s my neighborhood Matts since the mid eighties!
When fasting, how do you deal with the nausea, cramps, and abdominal pain?
Just an idea but how about you sell a yoga type mat for the rocks. I'm thinking some kinda gel bottom and Yoga mat top. The large round mats are cool
I lost too much weight fasting twice a month for a year so I stopped. But I developed this sharpness or clear headedness that is like drinking a cup of coffee without feeling jumpy.

Have you been in the Palos Verdes area recently? I swore I helped you at my store a couple of days ago!! If not I seen your doppelgänger
Lol no, wasn't me!
You should try a bass hook and set it up weedless texas rig style you can swap weights depending on current conditions and you wont get snagged with that exposed hook
Gnar gnar bro-heem!
Hi Matt... just wondering if you are able to share the locations you fish from...
they aren't that hard to find, 4 years ago when I started watching FL videos I also wanted to know where every spot is. But no one will tell you, so I learned how to find them using google maps and other imagery
Hehe! No!!
Good man on the fasting, I do a 72 hr once a month myself, its very powerful and how about that first meal 👍

Maybe those unfished fishes (or even fished fishes) would EVEN go after a piece of cloth dangled in front of them. What do you think?
For lent? Or just cause?
Slow pitch jig ought to slay the carriers.
good jup i like it brow
That thump-THUMP!! 😘👌🏼
Another beautiful trip, love the seascape, thanks for taking us along
what happened to your boat i loved your content you were making on it and i do love this mtype content too keep up the the love for the ocean
Love that rod and it's collapsable, can you send me a link please. Love your videos and thank you. Tight lines!

NY surfcaster here. If you had any one tip for someone producing fishing content, what would it be?
Want to see you do a survival trip with limited supplies. It sure if he’s done this yet?
I started the 20hrs fasting. I might slowly try that once a little bit more healthy lol.
Learn to make your own jig heads. Molds can be purchased from Jan’s Net Craft or Barlows Tackle. Just be careful with molten lead
Hey Matt, is the fast only water for the 48 or 72 hrs or can you drink anything else in between water ?
Just water/saltwater for me. Next time I'll do 48hour. 72 was a bit much this last time
@@FishermansLife I'll let you know how my 48 hour go's next week. Thank you and great job as always.
I use 40,000 volts electrolytes in my water when fasting and it helps a lot. You should check it out. Just a couple drops go a long way.
I tried a one day fast and could barely do it. I learned later that you should start light if you've never fasted before.

Can't imagine what it'd be like to starve, or be hungry like that all the time. 72 hours is wild
If you haven’t had water in days you can smell it it’s so weird
Fasting is fun, especially if you get used to it. The meal after the fast is always amazing no matter how mediocre it is 😂
It’s not safe for your organs long term. It’s good for your metabolism and others things but it’s not all positive. Trust me
I had gastric sleeve surgery like a decade ago. I never feel hunger and still can't eat more than a measuring cup of food every 30m. Sometimes I forget to eat for a few days till I get light headed....protein shakes are what I remember to eat with.
Once you get past the 24 hours it's not too difficult. Your body has a time clock that it's used to, but it only takes a day to shake it.
Fired up
this time of year the lings come to shore for spawning. you can target them in well aerated coves and holes

Just short of a nice ling meal! Dang! Great vid!
