Nice video. Had similar foamers off san Onofre about a month ago and only had one bite about 30 pounds after what was probably a hundred casts before the dumb one hit. I read from Erik Lansfield from bloody decks that small poppers like the yozuri 5 inch sashimi and Halco poppers are a good thing to try but weigh less than 2 oz so tough to cast far but in kayak you have that stealth to get real close.

NICE. Congrats and thanks for sharing. The number of Tuna and the number of cast is crazy for the amount of action. Thanks for the tips. I have some smaller jigs and a popper but did not have the smaller stuff ready that day, since I did not expect that Tuna action, that close in. I went back two days latter and last Friday all set with the smaller stuff and it's dead. Bonitos have come in but bait is hard to make and bird action is not happening. That's Fishing!
