What Inspires You Video Contest by Okuma
What Inspires You Video Contest Okuma ran a really cool video contest this year and we asked the question, What Inspires You? With that, we had a lot of entries. We asked for a 3 minute or less videos telling us what inspires you about fishing. The winner of the contest was set to receive an all expense paid trip to SoCal to fish with Team Okuma for one day and another day fishing with the TV show Stoked On Fishing. Second place was a $1,000 Okuma gift card and third was a $500 Okuma gift card. Not bad at all! The Videos As I mentioned, we had a lot…

Limit Style Yellowfin Tuna Fishing
Annual Okuma Fall Charter Aboard Tribute Sportfishing With the reports of limit style yellowfin tuna fishing coming in recently, we had our charter timed just right. The annual Okuma Fall Charter aboard Tribute Sportfishing out of Seaforth Landing has been a tradition over the past couple of years. The Plan Everyone had high hopes of limit style yellowfin tuna fishing as we headed down to Seaforth Landing in San Diego. The fish had been reasonably close to home and it had been pretty wide open. The fish we were chasing were not big like the recent bluefin that we have been catching, but more fun sized in the 10-30lb class.…

Walleye Jigging on the Columbia River
Fish Camp 2018 This year I had the opportunity to attend Fish Camp up on the Columbia River. Fish Camp is a media event where several media types are invited from around the country. The event takes place at Peach Beach Camp Park in Goldendale Washington along the famed Columbia River. The goal every year is to get up and spend some time with a variety of media folks and talk about and demo new products while fishing for salmon, sturgeon, bass and walleye. And its called Fish Camp for a reason. We do just that, camp. Tent and sleeping bag provided. Over the past several seasons, hover fishing for…

Cedros Kayak Fishing- A Journey Worth Taking
Cedros Kayak Fishing Last year I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to fish a few of the Coastal Conservation Association of California kayak tournaments around Southern California. I’ve been a kayak fisherman since the mid 90’s, but have been out of the tournament circuit for a few years. When these popped up, I was all in. The top raffle prize happened to be an all expense paid trip with Cedros Kayak Fishing, and you know what…I won! Kayak fishing at Cedros Island has been a dream of mine for a long, long time. And to hear that I won, I was ecstatic! I’ve known the owner of Cedros…

Long Range Fishing Close To Home- Giant Bluefin Tuna
With all of the giant bluefin tuna in the reports around Southern California, its hard not to dream about pulling on big fish. As of this writing, you have a legitimate chance at catching a big bluefin tuna on every trip. And when I say big, I’m talking 150 to over 300 pounds. This week I had the opportunity to get out and fish the annual Okuma 3 Day Charter aboard Excel Sportfishing. Day of Departure – Day 1 As the annual Okuma 3 Day Charter got closer, anticipation builds as we all read the fishing reports. Yellowtail, Dorado, Yellowfin Tuna and of course, Giant Bluefin Tuna all filled the…

Cedros Island- Disaster Averted
Disaster Averted! After an incredible trip down to Cedros Island off of the Pacific Coast of Mexico, I was looking back at the footage I captured with my GoPro Hero 5 and found a pretty funny clip. Disaster was certainly averted this time. The Trip I was down at Cedros Island fishing with Cedros Kayak Fishing and Jeff Mariani and the fishing was pretty incredible for Calico Bass. The yellowtail bite was a little slow, but the bass were non stop and we put the Hobie Mirage Kayaks to work this week. The Fishing After a day of throwing big baits for yellowtail and swimbaits for calico bass, Jeff and…

Barramundi Fishing with Osceola Outback Adventures Florida
Barramundi Fishing with Osceola Outback Adventures I recently had a pretty incredible opportunity to check another fish species off of the bucket list. After this years ICAST show in Orlando, we had the chance to get out and fish with Osceola Outback Adventures for Australian Barramundi. We didn’t even have to travel all the way to Australia to do it. In fact, we hopped in our rental and drove about 45 minutes to St. Cloud Florida which is just outside of Orlando. This is the only place in the northern and western hemispheres that you can actually fish for Barramundi. For those of you that may not know, Barramundi are…
