  • I hike into a new spot I've never fished before. I can't catch as much variety of fish as I wanted too but there's heaps of western​ blue groper and I manage a new PB at 108cm
    The big one was caught using rock crabs for bait
    This is the gear I was using:
    - CTS GT Fight rod pe6-8 9ft by JC customs
    -Shimano Stella 20000
    -80LB Tasline, 170 or 200LB Varivas leader
    WARNING Rock fishing is dangerous.
    Don't try to replicate this kind of roped in fishing

    If your the person that placed that rock on the log let me know. You never know it’s a small world! and I doubt it washed itself there.
    If the like the video give my channel a subscribe. Cheers

    Awesome video. Have you tried any of the grouper from Florida? Is the blue grouper similar if you have? We fish off big ass rock jetty here but nothing like y'all! Love it man keep it up
    Also, we use what we call here a drop net so we can release our fish that were never allowed to keep and healthy. It's a circle about a meter wide with a drop net woven around it and a long add rope. Mainly use it for bridge fishing but it might be better than your gaff

It was in the News. And beach goers were warning him he couldn't fish that species out. He got arrested by police few moments later.
    Just wondering is this one a different species of blue groper which you can eat? Or is this another species you're not supposed to fish??

    That is a fascinating gaff. Who is the manufacturer? Thanks

      It’s called a cliff gaff. The hooks swing freely so they push out when it hits the fish and swing back in when you pull the rope

      where did you get the gaff... could come handy at tricky spots.

      I bought it from a local tackle shop but if you search online for cliff gaffs you might find a seller that will post. Im not sure if youll find one at a shop in California? But you could always ask
