Fishing Catalina Island to Newport Beach! (Catch, Clean and Cook)

Hey everyone, welcome back to another video! This was the second day of a trip to Catalina Island. I had some bait left over so I decided to focus on trying to catch halibut with rockfishing as my back up plan. Conditions were tough at the island but once I got back to the beach I got my limit of vermillion rockfish in no time.

    I just love watching your channel. I grew up fishing out there in the early '70's. I used to fish horn sharks at night while moored up in Avalon. Used cut bonita. Good company, good beers, so fun. I've caught tons of dolphin fish off the east end. Enjoy 😊

    Thanks for watching! You can't go wrong fishing at night and pulling up those horn sharks, such cool animals. Hopefully the dorado show up in that area soon.

    Last week I was on the Pursuit and we got into bluefin tuna foamers at the back side. They looked like 40-80lb fish feeding on mackerel. We weren't able to hook any but it was the craziest thing I've ever seen at Catalina.
