I did a 2.5 day trip on the top gun 80 with him. Such an awesome man. I was basically puking non stop for 3 night and was barely able to fish even though I tried as I was sick. He helped me hook one and donated a 100 bluefin to me. Legend!
Its all Karma, everything that we do comes back to us. Hope we fish together again!
I like that Tiki went into proper etiquette when fishing on a long range trip, because it is a whole different kinda animal. Nice job Edward!
Thanks!
This is the most informational kelp video I've seen... literally teaches you everything you need to know in 20 minutes! Wish I could have watched this before my first trip out to the paddies. Thank you Creaky!!! You guys were awesome, hope to fish with the both of you again down the line! 👍
Thanks bro! Let’s get on another boat in the future! Come out in June and we’ll chase a white seabass bite!
One of the best tutorial with great fishing tips especially for shorter trips with more anglers at the rail ....
Just meet Mr Tiki today. He is a wealth of knowledge!
This is by far the very Best yellowtail video I've seen !! Step by step from the máster, so down to earth !! Love his way of teaching , his person we all wish we new that one fisherman like this great man!! Million Likes to your channel and teacher host !!
Thanks Frank! Spread the word! The step by step and tips were so well laid out by Creaky Tiki! Good luck on your next yellowtail adventure!
Thanks for the kind words Frank!! Tight lines!
I listen to his advice and never had a bust ,16 Trinidad, 60 pound braid 8 foot phoenix awesome 💯👍
Creaky is the type of fisherman I would enjoy my long range with. Awesome educational video!! Keep it up bro.
This was just what I imagined fishing in CA was like. Congested
Probably one of the best YT paddy fishings vids on RUclips, very informative. If I could share the rail with CREAKY for a day I’d pay his gally tab just for the education I’d get!✌🏻🍻
Promise? Just texted him his next gally tab is yours. He likes buying rounds for the whole boat and crew 😉
Jk
Thank you so much this is why you are my number one video that I watch and tell all of my fishing buddy’s about
Appreciate you spreading the word brother!
Thank you Creaky Tiki! Appreciate all the helpful input
I keep coming back to this video, its a masterclass.
thanks bro. hoping to film with him again this year
@@Hook2Cook bro I wanna go soso bad.
One of the best videos I've watched on youTube in while! Creaky Tiki seems down to earth and more than happy to share information.
He’s great! He was helpful to everyone on the boat from the start
@@Hook2Cook Would you happen to know the model of the rod Tiki was using?
@@tommyliu4683 It is the 15 to 30, (SHS 90-9)
Great informative video with plenty of tips, thanks. And some nice sushi type Yellows
Edward awesome video bro!! I loved how you let Dennis take the reigns and just talk about this type of fishing. Such an interesting setup with the 9ft rod and a soft rod to absorb the shock for boat fishing. I would have never thought that. So much knowledge. Amazing video!!!
It made so much sense! He has decades of knowledge and hopefully we sharpened some learning curves!
This kind of thing is on my bucket list. Nice catch.
Great video guys. Thank you! Ordering the book today.
I have 6 Harnell Root Beer Fiberglass rods in 8'length. They bend parabolic and soft from the butt. They are from 1965 and all are wrapped once or twice. I fish them with 60 year old Penn senators or a Penn Jigmaster. For 30-40lb lines they excell. Not enough backbone for Bluefin.
I got a few I got in a garage sale for 20$ in 1997 in Florida
Ain’t never gonna sell them
Awesome fishing story. Lol thanks buddy cheers Ricky 💃🕺🏼🎶🐈⬛🎸💥
Terrific video-very informative-thanks very much!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
He makes it look easy
Awesome Video Thanks !!
Good shit Edward! You’re videos are very educational and fun to watch at the same time. You save me $450 for a 1.5 day trip by this video alone 😅
Great job very informative
Amazing video!
Thank you!
Terrific video
Rp knot aka the modified alberto knot 👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
Perfect video 👍🏼
Glad you think so!
Hello all, quick question. Is it ok to use Shimano ocea conquest 301hg and Vanquish 5000 for fishing yellowtail in Socal? Just checking if I need to buy new reel. thanks
When i flyline i always get the fattest wildest sardine ,always get bit😉
Hook-to-cook, I assume your name is Edward. Nice video, great of you to forgo fishing and talking just to capture the excellent video 👍
Forgoing the fishing was the hardest part! Haha thanks for sympathizing with my pain 🤣
What a clinic! You expecting yellowtail to make their way up to Santa Barbara with the upcoming El Niño year?
Nice video bro let’s do a sturgeon video next!!
Yes! Now you see the vision! How to catch sturgeon from a pro is our video!
Thanks
Thank you for making this video. What model rod is he using? he has 30# braid but what # Floro?
Seeker Hercules SHS 909-9 rod with 5 foot 30# flouro leader. Could use any size flouro from 20# up to 40# on this setup.
Thank you.@@creakytiki
@@creakytikiis the reel 300 single speed or double speed?
This reel is a single speed, wasn’t available as a two speed when I bought it. Would get the two speed now.
What rod was that? I know seeker,but which one?
Seeker Hercules SHS-90-9
Are you gonna be on the Apollo with seeker team end of may coming up my friend?
What rod is that? If anybody knows
Seeker Hercules SHS-90-9
What rod is he using?
Seeker Hercules SHS-90-9
I had a question can you use a spinning reel for this type of fishing
You can use a high quality spinniung reel. Ti me, yellowtail are the UFC of local gamefish. I prefer a conventional with strong drags, but for paddies, an ocean spinner will also work. I would NOT use the spinner for yo-yo jigging, need more power to keep the yellows out of the rocks and off the bottom. Tight lines!
Tiki is the man, great video sir. Thank you for the countless tips. I'd be honored to fish next to you someday. Thank you Ed.
I love you videos bro
Thank you!
Awesome video! I've seen a few deep sea fishing vids, and I've never seen anybody perform ike jime or bleed out the fish on an open party boat. Do you know if it's allowed? I did see another one of your recent videos and you bled the fish, cleaned it and stuffed it with ice, but that was a private charter from what I remember. Wondering if we can bleed fish on open party? My guess is the deck hands don't want to keep washing down the boat deck.
It is allowed. We were popping hills on those yellowtail before throwing them in the bin for sure. Just be sure to do it right over the bin or at least close to to be mindful of creating extra work for the deckhands.
@@Hook2Cook The crew on the Royal Star have been bleeding and doing Ike Jime for a while now, not sure about any other boats doing it for you.
What rod was he using Ed?
Seeker Hercules
@@Hook2Cook thanks Ed, after I asked he said it when his line got tangled and both anglers lost their fish.
Seeker Hercules SHS 90 (9 feet long)
What length should the rod be?
If no mono top shot, 8 to 9 feet
Is the boss acuret 300 reel vallent same reel he is using with 9’ seeker Hercules soft Rod
Yes it is
Thank for quick response . On the Rod line is he using 15-30 or 30-50 two different rods with same model numbers
@@rcastillo6860 The light rod is the SHS90-9-C. The heavier rod has an "H" in it - SHS90H-9-C. Hopoe thius helps!
Yes
What Seeker 9’ rod was he using though? Great video and job by Creaky.
It’s called the Hercules
@@Hook2Cook really appreciate the reply. I’m in market and that is very useful 👍🏻
The rod is a Seeker Hercules SHS 90 (9 foot length). It has caught literally a ton of fish, and still looks near new. A great stick!
Any idea where it can be purchased at
@@rcastillo6860 Try Squidco in San Diego. Local pickup only, too long to ship...
This was a really educational video Ed. Why do you butt hook your bait 🤔
When a bait is butt hooked the drag from the line imitates bites from a predator. This causes the bait to swim down and away from the boat. Which is what u want. If you nose hook. The bait will go wherever. Every angler has their preference.
Helps get the bait swimming away from the boat and a bit deeper.
What rod do have??
Hi Jose! I am using the Seeker Hercules SHS 90-9 rod.
Seeker Hercules SHS-90-9
Have been trying for 3 days. Any idea where I can buy that seeker Hercules soft Rod SHS90 15-30
No idea, but a phenix abyss 9’ is somewhat comparable with a 15-40 rating
Contact the factory in Orange to see who carries it/ how to get it
Is that blue brade your using?and what kind...thanks
Yes, it is blue braid, made by Berkeley
It is blue braid, Berkeley ProSpec is one of my favs
What size flouro were you using 30?
yes, 30# braid to a short 30# flouro leader.
Blackwater 35# flouro
On his seeker Rod is he using 15-30 line rating or 30-60
It’s the 15-30 he says the 30-60 is noticeably stiffer
Thank you for quick response. Awesome video
15-30, but it handles 40# very well if all braid/short flouro leader
What model number and ratio reel are you using
The reel is the Accurate Valiant 300. Mine is a single speed (6.1 to 1 gear ratio). It is now made in a two speed version!!!! (6.1 and 3.1 ratios). Rated at 325 yards of 30# braid.
Reel is an Accurate Valiant single speed
What brand of pliers are those?
Accurate
@@Hook2Cook These are the Accurates with the split ring tip jaws, really helps to have that split ring tip when digging out deep hooks.
Accurate with the split ring jaw tip
Is this the single speed reel?
The reel in the video is an Accurate Valiant 300. This small valiant has only one speed. The Valiant 400 has two speeds, but it is a little bigger than the 300. For me, a single speed is fine for line strength of 40# and less.
The newest version of the 300 should come in both a single speed and a two speed.
Thank you awesome fishery going on here
@@creakytikiwould you recommend the Valiant 300 or 400 for a 30# set up?
@@rpw77 Hi RPW! Answer: that depends on a couple of things. 1). If you are fishing straight 30# braid to a short (5 foot or less) flouro leader, then my preference is the Valiant 300 (which now comes in either single or two speeds). 2).The 300 holds about 320 yards of 30# solid braid. If you DO fish the 300 with straight braid and no topshot, take extra 30# braid with you! Tangles and cutoffs can quickly leave you way short of line, especially with the mixed grade of fish that we are seeing out there. 3). If you want to have a mono topshot on your braid, or to hopefully have enough solid braid without taking extra line, go with the Valiant 400 2 speed. It holds a bunch of 30# braid. You could also pack it with 40# braid and use a 30# flouro leader, then bump up to 35# or 40# flouro if needed, giving you more versatility if needed.
The above is assuming you will also be using the reel to flyline for tuna as well as for yellowtail. two years back, I was lucky enough to land an 88# Bluefin with the 9' Hercules SHS 90-9, Valiant 300 with 40# solid braid, and 35# flouro leader. I almost got spooled, but finally landed the fish, and since then fish 30# braid on the 300.
BTW, I now always put a coat of hard Carnuba paste wax on my Accurate spools before filling them to help protect them from corrosion. Seems to really help, especially with a spool full of wet salty braid. Hope this helps!
What type Rod and modle how long
9ft seeker Hercules
Seeker Hercules SHS90-9-C, 9 feet long
Seeker Hercules SHS-90-9
How did u guys do?
You will see in the next video!
@@Hook2Cook looking forward to it 🎣
What model is that 9 ft ?
It’s the Hercules
Seeker Hercules SHS 90
Seeker Hercules SHS-90-9
On other hand fury never lost and how much hate does he get.
Type of Rod
The rod is the Seeker Hercules SHS90 9 C. It can't be easily shipped with its nine foot length, Squidco in San Diego shows it available on their website. I would call them to verify, local pickup only from them. It is really tough for the factory to keep up these days, rods are almost all accounted for before they are even finished,
30 lb braid!!
"Away from the boat" guy didn't even let his bait swim had line tight with thumb on spool!! Haha
I can see that it looked like I was not letting line out, but that isn't the case. The thumb is there with a REALLY light pressure when needed to keep excess slack out of the line and to help "keep in touch" with the bait, The bait still swims away from the boat with line going out as needed, just without a bunch of unneeded slack in the line. Done right, you can feel the bait swimming, when it gets super-active, and when it may have u-turned back towards the boat or died. Sometimes the drift of the boat is towards your bait when you are at the "end of the line" for casting in, and when this happens (or the bait turns and puts slack in the line), you gotta "backspool" line in until the slack is taken up. Tight lines!
You’re holding the rod under the wrong arm
☝☝☝
This was a really educational video Ed. Why do you butt hook your bait 🤔
Because I was getting bit nose hook. You’ll see.
Butt hooking helps get the bait away from the boat and a bit deeper. Sometimes this really helps!
