      I just started rock fishing off shore again this year. I mostly do charters at half moon bay and emeryville. Ankeny, Seawolf and Tigerfish. Unfortunately, I have been really sick and can no longer get on the boat, so I tried along the shore from Bodega, Jenner, Mendocino and up to Fort Bragg. Jenner and Mendocino were the best but they have not been biting for the past 2 weeks using squid and white shrimp. I have been doing this about about 4 months now and hoping to explore more spots before it gets really cold. I fish mostly alone. So it would be great if u can share a couple for me add to my trips. If not, I totally understand. Thanks guys! Fish on! 🎣 🙂

    • @joelshaw7878
      @joelshaw7878 Před 3 lety +3

      This is not this spot, however here's a great fishing spot (best I have ever found from shore) but you have to have some nerve to get there as you have to make your way down a very steep cliff in the neighborhood of 650 feet. Warning to the wise, there is serious danger if you are not careful, but this spot will not disappoint you. You will know this is a great spot because you will hear the sea lions below barking to all their friends that, "This is the place." Travel down Highway one south of Big Sur to the Coast Big Sur then turn around and go to the second embankment north of there called Seal Beach Overlook. You can cross reference this location on Google maps. You will see a seriously steep cliff. (If it is the same as it was 36 years ago when I fished this spot you will also see what appears to be a path that goes about 100 feet and then ends. Now (VERY CAREFULLY) make your way down that sea cliff. If you go too far south you will come up against an extremely steep vertical cliff that you might meet your demise on so just head straight down slightly north. You will soon be going down a loose shale slope and that last about half the length of the hill. (Note that this is a serious challenge on the way back up the hill as this amounts to 3 steps up to make 1 step of progress after you slide down.) The perfect spot to fish is a rock that sits about 35 or 40 feet off the water where you can cast out from. The best time to go is in the early morning as the winds will be calm. So go early as the winds will put a damper on this unbelievably great spot. When my brother and I fished the spot with a few friends we cleaned house using squid for bait. The fishing is so good you can use a party boat rig with 3 hooks with the red and yellow yarn and reel in three fish at a time on a consistent basis. I have never seen this kind of fishing from the shore. Anywhere! We also never saw the remains of anyone else's gear down there. One of the guys left a pole down there on a regular basis and it never disappeared on him! So you know this spot is remote and hard to get to. The group of us usually limited within an hour. Back then it was 20 fish total per person. We made the mistake the first time around of lugging all that fish up the hill. The second time we brought fillet knives with us and left the remains for the seagulls. Now I believe the limit is 10. You should easily limit within an hour. As fast as you can put it out there we reeled it back in. There are tons of all varieties of cods, lings, caps, dolly varden's, sharks, flounders and about anything else you can imagine. My brother ended up putting climbing gear hooks into the rocks to make it safer to climb as it is a bit of a risk to get down there and back. It may or may not be there now. That gear is a good 30 years old minimum so you might want to replace it. A downside of that hill is that there is a lot of poison oak so you might want to use a poison oak wash before and after you go down to avoid the itch. The reason we found it was because there was a rock slide on highway 1 preventing us from going any further south where our initial choice was to fish, so we decided to take a chance and venture down the hill, and the rest is history. Needless to say that spot was a regular for the group of us. It's also full of great memories. Unrelated to 'The Hill', a couple of those friends passed away along with my best friend on this earth, my brother. Here's to you Jay. Love you bro. Be careful but enjoy that fishing spot that's the best I know on this planet. Crack open a beer afterwords during the fish fry and raise a toast to Jay!

      Hey Chasen, thanks for the feedback. We do what we can to explain, every angler is at a different level of skill. We tend to explain things in a way for those who know a decent amount around fishing to start with. We battle between showing fun content and getting down to the nitty gritty details. We have posted videos in the past going into lengthy explanations that got us very little views/comments. We will do what we can to explain more. If you skipped through the video, we did go over the baits, the tackle, ect. Thanks.
