Some good reports of Yellow tail biting in our local waters. We wanted to make a video intended for you guys land those fish.
thanks for watching and have a good fishy weekend.
- BD Staff
Do you think a Daiwa Luna 300 would work for yellowtail?
Another all meat and no filler instructional video.
As long as you guys are digging them, we'll keep pumping them out.
@@LocalKnowledge Pump till the well goes dry.
Ali, really love seein you guys do your thing. You’re always pumping out great stuff. Keep rocking it brother!
Thank you! Appreciate that ! stay tuned for more!
3:39 am June 27 2020 I am watching your videos because you are a good teacher i learn a lot from you when you do any thing you are able to multi task and all ways try to help others thank you Ali
thank you so much for the kind words!
Dude.... Today is a month since you posted this comment n I'm here now on July the 27 2020 at 2:00 am also here picking up some pointers from our main man Ali....
Keep up the great work Ali and stay safe during this crazy pandemic.... By the way I'm also from San Diego 😎🤙🐟
Thanks Ali! Great tip, a light rod that bounces alot means more reel work. I'm no professional trust me, your tips are always spot on. Cant wait for your next video
Thank you John!
Sorry man I might just be slow, but I had to watch some of ur tuna how-to videos multiple times because you talk very fast. Not at all meant to be disrespect as I love your channel and I’ve gotten so much useful info from y’all, it’s just tough to hear it sometimes. I’m sure it’s just passion and excitement because I get like that too! Cheers!!
All good! We love the feedback. We are always trying to keep these videos as short as possible and sometimes we do move quick!
Nice info my friend, in under 5 minutes. No blathering on here. Well done.
Glad you liked it!
I started really ocean fishing about 5 years ago. I've learned A LOT from Bloody Decks and your show. Thank you. I now have a 21' center console and more rods/reels than I know what to do with! lol
Right on Shawn! we love to share our passion for the sport and inspire other anglers!
I'm glad to hear that you can still find sardines for bait. They were decimated along the Los Angeles -San Francisco coast in the late 60's, the last big school was taken on one night using airplanes as spotters to bring in the entire fleet. They were grinding them up for fertilizer decades before that. Unbelievably poor resource management!!
We are stoked to have a happy, healthy bait fishery here in socal. Casting anchovies is no fun.
Keep the videos rolling, Ali! Great as always!
THanks Roger. Trying for one a week!
Great tips as always! Locked down in So.Cal right now, so reviewing all your old clips! Keep up the great work!
Thanks Roger. Glad to hear it's making things a little better right now.
I use the Tady Mint color Jig and it works the best for SoCal Yellowtails!👍
That's a classic lure in a classic color!
@@LocalKnowledge never can best the classics😁👏
Ali Thank you for the tips. I love the show. Keep up the good work. Hopefully one day I will see you guys out on the water.
Thanks for checking us out Dirk!
Keep a couple of smaller sized lures (mega bait or Hook up) if they are keyed in on small chovies they won't bite the bigger irons.
Edit: this channel is giving some of the best info for SoCal, and in the perfect no BS format. 👍🎣👍
Great tip that we will definitely cover when we start talking tuna.
I have a small damiki backdrop rerigged with 1/0 assist hooks that kills it when they are on small bait. A yellow straightened out the hooks that came on there originally
Love these short great content/info videos.
Haven't seen them all but keep making more.
Thanks !!!
Thanks John! More are on the way.
Your videos rock, please keep em coming! Would love to see some videos on caring for your catch, filleting, freezing, thawing, etc... thanks Ali!
That's coming for sure. We're trying to keep a steady flow of good, evergreen content for you guys.
awesome tutorial. the yellowtails r great to catch especially for jigging.
100% agree!
Well presented and explained gear/tactic breakdown. Excellent production value and camera quality as well. Cheers boys.
Dan Evan Fishing :)
Thanks Dan!
Keep the vids coming! 👍👍 Good stuff
Thanks Michael!
Nice!!!!! Tight lines!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed! Don't forget to subscribe!
Never tried a nomad on a party boat yet. Might try it a couple times this year an see what happens. Been liking the flat falls and colt snipers.
good technique to try!
Great video...would have liked to see Rush do his take on yellow tail for the east coast also.......keep the videos coming
It's coming...
Best video EVERRRRRRR short SWEET and straight knowledge 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤓
Thank you! Stay tuned for more!
Thanks for the know how I’m a local myself and I can’t keep track of how many times someone has asked me about this while I’m fishing I will refer them to this lol thanks for the great vid
Rad. Thanks Justin!
Excellent tips!
Thank you!
hey ali great vid. ik your a huge iron guy. it’d be pretty cool if we could see your iron collection
We will ad it to the list.
Awesome video fella!! I would love to get on some yellow tail one day 👍👍
Come on down to Southern Cal and make it happen!
Cool stuff. Wish we had access to live sardines and mackerel here in norcal, would be killer for big rockfish.
They do love a big sardine for sure. A lot of times we'll load a big tank of mackeral and fish those exclusively. IT filters out the smaller fish and big reds and lings can't say no. Good luck.
Great information and nicely delivered 😊🎣
Thank you!
Great video I always wanted you guys to get more in depth with the gear, hooks, line and strategies. Im a local SD guy and I get so excited and amped up seeing you guys fish the islands or go paddy hopping on the show. Keep up the awesome work, you guys have the best job ever!
One question why do you prefer short fluro topshots vs 50-75 yard mono topshots? Does short fluro really get bit more than say 25lb smoke izor mono?
Thanks for the kind words. We almost always fish the short top shot for a couple of reasons. The short topshot has MUCH less drag than a long mono leader and your bait will swim much better. Fluoro is harder to see in the water as well and definitely gets bit better.
I agree. On both spin gear and conventional i switch out my 80 yds of mono for a nice 6 ft leader of 25 , 40, or even 15 florocarbon before boarding my 3/4 and full day trips
These are great vids....keep it up.
Thank you, Will try to . thanks for commending and for the positive feedback
Great informative videos Ali!! please keep it up.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome Ali. Great instruction Brother !!!
Thanks, Gerry from Santee, CA
Thank Gerry. We hope it helps you catch a few more fish.
Dang. I need to get on a boat.
Great video brother 🤙
It's biting right now!
These are great videos and thank you for educating us. Possibly for future videos if it's not too much to ask. Could you list of all the equipment rods, reels, lines, and lures. Thanks. Tight lines!!!! 🤙🤙🤙🤙
thanks for the kind words. The Tackle details are in the video description. Enjoy!
Good video ....I'm going after yellowtail on Saturday.7/27 ...I'll keep you posted. ..thanks. ..new sub
Good luck! They are biting.
Great vid.. do more of these 🤙 tight lines
Stand by to Stand by!
On the Madscad what size is best for La Jolla? Seems to come in several options. Also best hooks for it? Thanks. Great videos.
The 95 or 115 is good for smaller fish like Calicos. Yellowtail love the 115 or the 150. Hope this helps.
Great video ! Very informative.🤙🏻
Thank you for commenting and stopping by
Good information!
Loved the vid great advice, wish I saw it before I went out yesterday to the coronados....We did land 3 YT but I had given up hope and started rockfishing...Got 5 Sculpin so it wasn't a skunk by any means but I am ready for my first YT.
You'll be ready next time!
Caught alot of fish on my channel cuz of you guys
We love hearing this! Glad we could help.
Ok awesome ty

Ali I’m heading out of San Diego aug 4+5th have a torium 20 on a cal star 15-30 and a penn slammer on a carnage2 heavy any last minute tips love the vids
Ask the deckhands how to pick the BEST bait out of the tank and listen to any other tips they give you. They know their stuff.
Like these videos typees
Don't forget to subscribe. Much more on the way.
Ali, the only 8' or 8'6" spin casting rods I'm familiar with for poppers and surface
lures are United Composite's "deckhand style rods". Interested to know what
your choice is in this regard. Thanks...
You will probably need to look outside the west coast manufacturers for a longer spin option. Do a little searching on the web and you should be able to find something to suit you.
Awesome 👍
Thanks 🤗
Knowledgeable 411!
Thank you!
Love the tips segment, my only suggestion is to pick up a higher quality mic. Don't get me wrong your audio isn't bad. Just a suggestion.
Thanks Bo. We're still working out the kinks. Keep the feedback coming.
@@LocalKnowledge I think you already got the kinks worked out. Just gotta throw a coat of polish on it!
I buy a Pen Fathon 40 two speeds to fish with jigs and live bait tuna, do you cast long cast with lever drag conventional reel? It is possile with free spool?
It's possible but a star drag will cast better and it's what we use for all of our lighter stuff. We will use a Fathom 40 for throwing poppers at bigger tunas.
For a spinning setup would 40 lb braid be enough and should i go straight braid or have a leader (surface iron wise)
40# would be ok for most fish but I'd hedge your bet and go with 65# plus it won't take so much line. Good luck.
Great video. It's helped me out a lot! What sort of line capacity do you recommend for fishing stick bait/surface iron?
Line capacity really isn't that essential for surface lures. A Fathom 25N loaded with 65# braid will have plenty of capacity.
Very informative, thanks for the video! I am much more confident casting with spinning rods/reels. Would a spinning outfit work with the surface iron? Thanks!
Yes sir. You just need to figure out what speed to wind at. If you wind too fast, you'll kill the action of the lure. Good luck.
@@LocalKnowledge Good to know. Thanks!
I love all your shows If I can't get on the water I'm watching and learning for new skills. What color madscads work the best in so cal? I'm heading out for an overnighter to the channels. I wanna make sure I'm prepared. Thanks
Man we love to hear this. We don't think color makes a huge difference in lures but we try to match the hatch whenever possible. Try the sardine pattern. Can't go wrong there.
@@LocalKnowledge which size madscad would you recommend for yellowtail 115 or 150?
What are you thoughts of the Shimano butterfly flat fall jig as a substitute for the yo-yo iron or the Shimano waxwing as a substitute for the surface iron for yellows?
Both are great lures and absolutely work. We have been catching them on the Nomad Buffalo jigs which are similar to the flat fall with no issues.
What rod do you have paired with the star drag in the front
Carnage 2, 7' 40-80# rod. Thanks for watching,.
which brand of braid would you recommend (power pro, daiwa, nomad designs) , mainly for the 1 day charters that head out to catalina? Thanks in advance.
We have been fishing Seaguar Threadlock for the last year and really love it. It casts like solid but is hollow for splicing. Really the best braid we've used.
Hey Ali! I just booked a spot on a party boat for Sept. 21st. All day trip. Going for yellowfin yellowtail and mahi. Can you give me any tips? I’ve never fished for any of these fish before
Call the landing a few days before the trip to see what the correct rig is (line size and hook size). Read up on selecting a good bait from the handwell. Listen to the crew. You'll have a blast.
Can you tell us about non spensive gear I looked up with the things you told me about the fishing gear it's pretty expensive like a lot of space
Will do. Look at the Fathom line of reels. They are by far the best bang for the buck out there.
Whooya!
Wahoo!
Hello great video. Quick question. What pound braid do you have on your set ups in the video
50, 65 and 80 matched to the reel size.
I'm trying to add another setup in my quiver but having a hard time deciding. I've had a decent time the last year catching the school sized and medium yellow fin, yellowtail, and bonito with a BG 5000 running 30lb mono for full days out of SD. I was hoping to drop the BG 5000 to 25lb and get a 40lb setup but having a hard time picking a good option for a reel under $250. Any recommendations for reels, rods, or entire setups?
I don't think there's a better value in a spinning reel than a PENN Slammer. The new Slammer 4's are shipping very soon. Grab a 5500 when they come out. You'll be stoked. Id' pair it with a 7'6" Carnage 4 rod sized to match your fish.
Can i use a 6 foot rod for surface iron fishing
You can use it, but it's far from ideal. You really need an 8' or 9' rod to throw the light lure as far as possible. We'd suggest getting a dedicated rod and reel set up.
Will a NOMAD riptide “Sinking 125” work? It’s 5 inches long
Absolutely!
What are the best months? And would a 7 foot 20-40 pound rod work for yellow tail? Also why won’t they bite when you just have braid and no top shot?
April through Oct is the season with May and June being the peak in the San Diego Area. Good luck,
@Baja Dan Typically for lure fishing line weight isn't much of an issue. In a picky bait bite, you are absolutely correct. Thanks for watching.
I’m super new to fishing and deep sea at that. I appreciate the videos! What braid type and weight do you have spooled on here? Good tip on the top shot.
Thank you!
I think that was Spider wire Camo Braid. Great stuff. We now fish Seaguar Threadlock and really love it.
Ali and rutchy, where is episode 2 of season 4? Something is wrong when you have viewers who like the show so much they’re willing to pay for it but it isn’t available. This stuff has to be avail via stream. No one is waking up at 7am and turning on discovery channel. C’mon man, give us the content.
Hi James, S4E02 is available right here in our channel. Just click the logo above and you will see it. We release all shows to CZcams and all of our streaming apps first thing Sunday AM. Enjoy.
Does that Mascad lure work for dolphin??
Yes sir! They can't get enough of it.
Which rigs do you use for live bait?
A 5' top shot of Seaguar leader tied to a Mustad Demon Circle Hook.
What kind of braided line do you use
We've recently switched to Seaguar Threadlock and we love it.
hey Ali, for that Fathom 25N what size /weight rod would you pair that up with for the surface iron? Looks like you have a different rod than the other SoCal Arsenal video. Also, what was the braid and flouro size on that 25? thanks man!
PENN doesn't currently make a surface iron rod so I use a Phenix 909H. It's a little quick actioned for a new caster but once you get a feel for it it will allow you to make a variety of different shaped casts for different conditions. We usually cast 65# Seaguar Threadlock braid with 40 or 50# flouro. Give that Threadlock a try. It's not cheap but it casts a mile and doesn't backlash like other braids.
when yo yo jigging how long of a topshot do you use ?
Same thing. About 5 feet.
Does penn make any surface iron rods ?
They don't currently make a Surface Iron rod. Fortunately they aren't hard to find here in Southern Cal.
Where are you located at and for all that set up how much
We don't sell gear. Do a little digging online and you can find all the stuff we talk about.
Can you catch one in Montans
Not sure what you mean.
Whats the brand of that blue camo braid yall use its awesome.want to get some
It's called SpiderWire Stealth Blue Camo Braid. Thanks for watching
@@LocalKnowledge thank you so much, litterally watching yalls episodes while I work from home today
Another great video Ali. Just one question what lbs braid are you using on these setups?
Sharpe Tackle & Charters Inc.
Big Game Sport-Fishing Adventures on the beautiful Island of Siargao, Philippines 🇵🇭
For yellowtail, 80# Seaguar Threadlock. The 80 Casts better than the lighter stuff and you don't need as much line to fill your reel.
What that long rod
It's a discontinued PENN Jig stick. Watch for new rods coming from PENN in 2020. Lots of west coast sticks headed this way.
Are you fishing in Northern California?
Out of San Diego mostly.
Saw your CZcams logo on a pickup in Redding. Always looking tips and gear advice.

You guys haven’t been to NZ.
It's on the list for sure! We're dying to get down that way.
Rod and reel set up look heavy as hell. Your not throwing that all day. I’ve been fishing straight braid with 4-5 ft leader and has been working great for 10 yrs now. Let me ask you this ? Why such the big ass reel when your on straight braid ?? My surface rod , 9ft cal star , heavy , with a accurate bx2 400. 300yrds of 65lb braid. I have not , till this day , been spooled or close to half way. I have the 50-80lb blue fins on this combo , no problem. With new technology , why big the big ass gear with straight braid ?? Pier fishing ?
Hey Joe, Not really sure what you mean. These are pretty much the standard for SoCal yellowtail fishing. The bigger reels provide better cranking power and faster line retrieves. You can absolutely throw a jig with a smaller reel but you have to wind like hell to keep it going fast enough for the action to work. This has nothing to do with getting spooled but the extra line makes it nice for bluefin fishing as well. We can catch them with smaller reels for sure but we feel these are the right tools for the job. If the smaller stuff works for you, go for it. Just have fun and you're doing it right.
My lures r burning... They're HOT & READY! > J
It's that time!
Local Knowledge Fishing Show.... You know it 🎣🐟🐟
Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup czcams.com/users/postUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.
Glad it works for ya!
