  • Man..I was basically laughing at the moment John hook up on those fish.I never seen a guy catching blackfish casting.He really knows where to cast and where the fish are holding.Amazing Angler.All respect to you!
  • When the season is over and the temps are freezing I'll be watching your 2019 A Season on the Edge compilation.... Over and over again!!
  • @jiggingjerks
    You never cease to amaze John - simply outstanding!

    John that water clarity is priceless. Looks good. That would be cool if blackfish ran beaches in huge numbers because they are pound for pound one of the hardest fighters if not the hardest inshore fish for its size.
  • @danielweise8516
    LOVE the zoom on the rod tip. Do that more. I love to see what you are feeling.
  • I don't even know why I watch your videos anymore. Pure torture. "Hey look I'm surfcasting for keeper Tog..." "Oh HEY LOOKEY HERE! Albies just happened to pop up right in front of me..." First cast hookup. "Hmmmm this is an okay spot..." Yeah. No shit John. Lol. You are the best man. Love it as always.

    GoPro can repair a corrupted file. Put corrupt file into camera and turn it on with a charged battery. The gopro should recognize the corrupt file and ask you if you want it to repair it. This happened to me before when my camera ran out of battery while filming.

    wtf, this man can do anything! Never heard of a tog caught from shore Love watching those albies swim around, they're so stiff with it, like little robo-fish
  • Hey John, my number one rule when fishing is take a cooler with ice. Nice video.
  • @Nick_176
    Love surf fishing for Tog! John you're the best!

    Very interesting for me. Your Blackfish are similar in habit and habitat to our Eastern Blue Groper here in NSW, Australia. Our Groper grow bigger but are also heavily structure oriented and eat a diet of crustaceans. The most common rig in my area is a small running ball sinker directly down to a size 2/0 to 5/0 hook. I'm curious to try your jigs as an option. The hook point riding up on the sea bed sounds like it could save me plenty of snags.
  • When I feel the taps and don’t hurry or set the hook, I feel nothing else till I feel back and realize there’s no crab on the hook. They are excellent at stealing those crabs.
  • Really I wanna quit work and just fish all day ...great action from shore love ur videos..keep them coming
  • @bionikcruz223
    wow look how clear that water is. Good eating they love green crabs.
