    • @BenjieKimFishing
      @BenjieKimFishing  Месяц назад

      HB is actually really good for halibut, but just like anywhere else, timing is everything. Figuring out the timing is every fisherman's obsession.
      South from Laguna is great all the way into deep SD and so is north. Obviously keeping it in general but I'm definitely not just saying that. Halibut are pretty much on every beach. Start from inlets and jetties and work the surf from there.

      @BenjieKimFishing  Месяц назад +1

      A proper measurement is with the mouth fully closed and at the zero. I've actually covered this many, many times in older videos, just didn't do that here. The main concern with this for example, is if one were to harvest a 22" halibut (22" is legal size) and measured the fish with the mouth open at the zero and were to later be checked by DFG, the official measurement would be shorter than if the mouth were fully closed....and would likely receive a citation for harvesting a sub-legal fish.

      @BenjieKimFishing  11 дней назад +1

      Hey there, thanks for the comment. I don’t know a beach that doesn’t hold fish. HB is great…both state and city. South of the pier all the way to the river jetty’s. Just gotta practice looking for structure. North of the pier all the way to the bolsa chica inlet…same deal, look for structure. Timing is very important…I like a 3 to 4 ft high tide in general but I also know folks who prefer the low. If nothing else, grey light or dusk are generally good times to give it a shot. Hope that helps.

    Its gonna be my first time coming from norcal to pismo beach. I plan to fish it but not familiar with surf fishing much. I thought about tossing my 130 jerkbaits that we use for striper on the sacramento river. I probably will bring my yo zuri monster shot for distance casting too. What fishes would I mostly encounter at pismo. Am assuming I dont need a ocean stamp for the area since am not below santa barbara?

    • @BenjieKimFishing
      @BenjieKimFishing  Месяц назад

      To my knowledge you do need an ocean as well but to be completely honest, I haven't looked it up, so you might be right.
      I live like 5 hours south of there....but Pismo is primarily perch...but some of the best perch fishing on the coast. Stripers have gotten a lot more common as well. Halibut on occasion but definitely pretty rare.
      130 jerk bait will get bit but I'd say 110's to 115's are probably best suited. Carolina rig or high low rig is the easiest way to get bit.

      2.5" curly tail swimbaits. Lots of guys pouring solid stuff up and down the coast. Check out my buddy www.biglaut.com and his perch puncher grubs in motor oil. Honey Badger Baits makes really good stuff as well.

      In the Central Coast (Pismo), you'd prolly want to start with a 1.5 ounce. You can go as low as 1 ounce or as high as 2 or even 2.5 depending on the conditions. But 1.5 seems to be a pretty good sweet spot up there.

    • @BenjieKimFishing
      @BenjieKimFishing  Месяц назад +2

      To be honest, SD is my favorite overall fishery on our coastline. Halibut fishing is off the charts as well. But obviously, it's not as simple as just going out and automatically catching. Fishing is easy rarely...but most of the time it takes dedication and a lot of tough sessions.
      But either way, that central coast adventure would be a good one....every locale has its strengths and weaknesses.
