- Catching a BIG SALMON with my BARE HANDS - Monterey Bay Salmon Fishing
Took out my kayak to get some live bait (anchovies) and mooch for Chinook (King) Salmon. The bait was plentiful and we managed to catch one nice 15 pound salmon within paddling range. Forgot my net so I had to grab the fish with my bare hands! Have any questions or suggestions for more videos? Leave a comment below!

Thanks for checking out the channel! Next video is going to be a catch and cook!
I'm continually impressed by what you're hauling in on that kayak! Beautiful salmon there.
Beginners luck for sure!
lol not likely. Game respect game mang ;)
Going over some archives this morning and I came across this one. That was a nice looking Salmon that you had there . I can tell that you are a true fisherman when you end up asking yourself , ¨ What did I forget today ¨ !
Came from fisherman's life channel to support u bro. Subscribed.
Thanks for visiting and subscribing!
Packing list my friend, packing list. Helps me not forget stuff anymore.
Lived in California for ever, my fishing was done off Dana Point, Davies Locker, Newport Beach, and Palos Verdes, Puerto Fino, the Horse shoe for large halibut, huge bonita, mackerel, also went out to Catalina island for some white sea bass, and yellow tail, and sail fish, but I NEVER got lucky in catching a salmon!!!!!!!!
That was a treat to see, looks pretty healthy too :-)
I do miss California fishing, l will have to settle for the Mediterranean sea, at least the corbina here are huge, not bad tuna too, and other species...
Stay safe bud!
Kayaking, fishing and catching a salmon! What a life! Thanks for sharing.
So much fun!
Nice work.you stayed calm like pro. You rock!
Thanks!!!!
That's a beautiful Salmon!
Beast mode catch, beautiful fish
Thanks for watching!
came from Fisherman's life, you def deserve some more subs!
Thanks for checking out the channel and subscribing!
Real nice feeder Chinook salmon. Great Video man !
Thanks!
Awesome catch !
Thanks!
Very nice! It's been slow for most people out there... Good to see you're catching quality fish.
They are out there!
That was insane
New subscriber. Great videos. I used to fish the Wilson and Clackamas rivers and barview Jetty in Tillamook Bay in oregon in the\late 70s.
Damn! Nice catch👍
That's an awesome catch bro, congrats! I sold my yak when I moved out of FL. but I've moved back and will probably get one again to paddle baits out for shark fishing and fishing the flats. Great vid man, tight lines!
Thanks for watching and thanks for the support. Definitely an adventure on the kayak.
You ought to try Bait Buttons when using a barbless hook. Helps keep your live bait on the hook.
Just checking out some of the comments, just so you know, I got to fisherman’s life through your channel! Good work bro.
That might be a first! haha
Awesome vid man. Started following you from the Halibut video you posted up on NCKA. Keep the vids coming! Hopefully I get to see you out in the water soon. -KillBait
Thanks! Hope to see you out there too!
Fisherman's life sent me. Nice catch.

*Fisherman's Life* sent me here, keep up the awesome vids!!
Thanks for checking out the channel!
Great catch! 😁👍
Thanks!
I would run 50bls spectra on the reel and have a fast action rod. Just my thoughts.
Yea same Fishermans life sent me here. Subbed too. NIce King!
Thanks for checking out the channel and subscribing!
Much respect from me for landing this fish without a net from a yak. Fantastic!!
Definitely not a recommendation for others to try, lol
GREAT JOB! I just subbed your channel after viewing the collaborative video ("Two HUGE VENOMOUS BLUE FISH") on Fisherman's Life channel...! Looking forward to following your adventures!
Thanks for checking out the channel! Hopefully you enjoy my vids even with the void of butter, lol
Man I've got to hand it to ya! A Chinook off a yak with no net! You, my friend, are the man! Oh, and it's ADIPOSE, not APIDOSE fin and there is a huge difference tween the hatchery and wild kings. Great video man, be well and fish on! Mark in Oregon
Thanks man! Yeah my bad on the pronunciation, haha. Jealous of the salmon you guys have up north.
What is the difference between playing a salmon without an Adipose fin compared to playing one with an adipose fin? I have caught more than a thousand salmon over the past 20 years. Some of the hardest fighting fish were fin clipped. FWIW most "hatchery" fish are NOT adipose fin clipped. The hatcheries can only clip about 10% of the fish they release. Just saying!
Pardon my ignorance but why not gaff him. Why do you need a net?
@@JLone55 Gaffs virtually guarantee the fish will die if you had to release it due to a) short length, b) wrong species, c) over limit. Regulations require nets only and of a certain size (18" by 18")
hooray empty sd card! congrats dude, killing it on the yak 👏👏
I am never going to hear the end of this
Nice! that fish puts up a fight
Thanks for watching!
Butter man just sent me. I watched a video of his from 2017 said diehard only has 2k subs now look at him 17k. Well now 17.1k subs. Great vids keeper coming.
Thanks for checking out the channel and subscribing! Welcome to the Die Hard Gang!
Bro ur crazy bare handed nice catch man
hahaha, yeah it made for a great story! I carry a net now though, don't want to lose any fish!
Die Hard Fishing nets gonna come in handy for a other huge salmon
Good stuff... fisherman’s life sent me here also 👍
Thanks for checking out the channel and subscribing!
Great catch!!! trying to get enough nerve to buy a Kayak! KEEP REELING!!!
Do it!!!!
How far out did you catch that and at what depth? I'm going there for salmon in a week.
Nice job ! The Butterman said you were good ,I subbed
Thanks for checking out the channel and subscribing!
Damn bro you are gangster kayak fishermen i was in usaw trying to do the same thing i wasnt as lucky as you
Awesome catch bro! Gonna have to do some fishing together!
Sounds good, I am ready!!!
What rod is that?? Great catches and awesome channel
I hear a lot of hatcheries in California do not clip the adipose fin, here in Oregon most of the time if it has a fin it is to be released. I miss catching kings on the California coast, glad to hear you guys actually had a season, and a killer one at that. Greetings from Portland Oregon usa
Thanks for watching! I am not sure about the clipping of the fins, maybe you are right. I will have to look into that. Hope we have more seasons like this one in future years!
In California they clip about 20% of their hatchery releases and put a CWT in their snout. Even with an adipose fin it's still most likely a hatchery fish. The only way to tell is with DNA, but there's so few wild fish left in the Sacramento River/San Joaquin watershed that hatchery fish compose the majority of the populations in Central California
Came here after getting my butter fix.
Cheers buddy.
Thanks for checking out the channel! May have to start using more butter here haha
Haha. Just jesting. Stick to what you like. :)
Nice man! I'm missing out on the summer run tho... :'(
Go get out there!
Nice vid, it really got me fired up to hit it. It'll be interesting to see how things go now that the commercial season just opened. I thought that looked like SC area.
A couple of questions: Did you get the chovies w/ a sabiki? What size cooler were you using? I've been mulling that one over for my Revo-16. I have a Hobie deck cooler bag, but for me, that will be best placed waaaaay up on my bow deck, not easy to reach at all. I keep my plano tackle box in the rear tank well.
What's your handle on NCKA? Mine's Scurvy.
Yeah, I caught the live bait with a sabiki. I am not sure the size of the cooler but its the biggest that will fit on my outback. I'm "diehardfishing" on NCKA.
Fishermans life sent me
Great video and catch!! Didn't see the rod spec on the gear used section. Willing to share?
Yeah, I believe its a 9 foot gloomis medium light salmon rod
Hi, where in Monterey County can I go fishing for salmon? I'm new to it, and would like to catch my own salmon. I have my license, but don't know where. Thanks
The butter fiend sent me. Subbed!
Thanks for checking out the channel and subscribing! Might have to start using more butter, haha
Congrats on a high quality fish! Awesome adventures! How deep do you put the live bait? Thanks!
Thanks! I tried anywhere from the top to the bottom of the water column. Just have to figure out where the fish are on any given day.
I'm curious about how you catch the bait. Maybe show more of stuff like that next time?
Thanks for the comment, will definitely incorporate that in future vids!
Cool video man! What rod and reel are you using? The Abu Garcia Ambassadeur S or the C3 version? What do you think of the setup? Thanks.
Thanks for watching! The rod is a 9 foot G Loomis and the reel is the C3 version. It is a little on the lighter side but I love the setup for salmon!
A Fisherman’s Life made me come here 👍🏽
Thanks for checking out the channel!
@@DieHardFishing Yeah, I also subscribed 👍🏽
Thanks!
Dang good landing!
I was gonna say , stick the gaff into the gills.
Maybe next time you don't have a net.
JO JO IN VT 💕 😊
Thanks for watching!
Where in Monterey is that pier ?
where did you launch?
Look at the size of that king salmon wow 👌
Still my PB to date!
@@DieHardFishing ROFT/👊
do you really use the go pro session and do you recommend to a beginning fishing youtuber
Yep! And yes I recommend it if you are just starting and not too familiar with gopros. It is very simple and easy to use.
is that Capitola were you launch from?
Yep!
dang wish i could do kayak or boat fishing, out of my budget though😢
Also, were you not trolling?? You’re honestly a legend
Nope, just mooching!
How did u carry the ob down thru that stair?!
There is a ramp next to the stairs where I carried it down.
Great video. Fishermans life sent me. What kayak are you using. Im looking at buying one soon. Would you recommend this?
Thanks for checking out the channel! It is a Hobie outback. I definitely recommend if you are looking into getting a pedal kayak for the ocean!
Lmao....EPIC!!!!!
How in the heck did you get that kayak all loaded with gear down them stairs?
Super human strength!
"apidose" lmaaoooo
New sub great content ❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼❤️❤️

Die Hard Fishing ty I used to live in queens NY I moved to central NY and what I miss the most is salt water fishing and watching you catch brings me back. So ty 👍🏼

I don't remember the name but it came from the RUclips Library I believe
Got your channel from fisherman's life
Thanks for watching!
What kind of kayak do you have?
It is a Hobie Outback
Where were you fishing. Not asking for location of spot just the general area.
capitola santa cruz
I'm a fan of yours but 1. how do you keep a live anchovy on a barbless hook? Also just FYI it's illegal to target salmon without a net on board.28.65 d) No person shall take finfish from any boat or other floating device in ocean waters without
having a landing net in possession or available for immediate use to assist in landing undersize fish
of species having minimum size limits; the opening of any such landing net shall be not less than
eighteen inches in diameter.
