    That big beautiful Dolphin shot right out of the can, bummer. I learned that lesson before while I was kayak fishing, put a fish in the cooler that wasn't dead and overboard he went. Now I leave them on the floor until I know the have expired. I guess we learn as we go along. This looked like a fun trip.

      @BlakeCresswell Před měsícem

      I don't know the brand name of the lures we used, but I would recommend similar ones such as: Saltwater trolling lures from the brand “OCEAN CAT”, and you can also troll some dead sardines or pilchards. Those worked just as well too. You could ask any local bait shop for help, and you can look up Ocean Cat on Amazon.

    Back in the late 60's I saw some old guys hook and land a 14' hammerhead and a 16' Blacktip at that same pier. They had to walk it to the beach to bring it in. Pier 60 was the only place I was allowed to fish all night while we were vacationed for two weeks. Big deal for a a little kid. A 8 year old. Very glad you git to go. P.s. when the Macs came in it was non stop action for hours. Enjoy and Fish On!

    • @BlakeCresswell
      @BlakeCresswell Před 2 měsíci

      It’s important to have leader line so the fish your targeting won’t be able to see that somethings attached to your bait. I like to hook them in the nose because it’ll be less of a chance of killing the bait. There’s also a chance the bait could’ve been dead before hitting the water, it could’ve been the way you were handling it. When you’re containing your bait, do you have an aerator with you? if you don’t, getting one can help keep your bait alive for a lot longer.
