How to Catch, Clean, and Cook Redtail Surfperch!

In this video, you will learn how to catch and clean and cook a redtail surfperch. We used sand crabs, but other popular baits include the LuckyCraft Minnow and gulp sandworms. These can be purchased at most mainstream tackle shops. I used size 2 mustad bait siwash sickle hooks. I like these hooks because it seems to stay in the fish’s booth better. The rod I used was a Ugly Stik Tiger 7 foot and the reel I used is a Quantum Iron Baitcasting reel. These fish can be relatively difficult to fillet but if you take your time, results will be great. This fish is usually mushy, but after coating it with salt it firms up and is very easy to cook with. Panko Japanese breadcrumbs are the best way, in my opinion are the best way to prepare these fish. The sauce was soy, oyster sauce, chili sweet sauce, teriyaki, garlic, and ginger. Simmer for 5 mins on high heat. Then pour over cooked fish. Overall, the fish was great. Now try it yourself!!!

Thanks a ton for watching.

One of these days I will probably end up going to the jetty, the north jetty or. South jetty and try to catch some rockfish, lingcod, or kelp greenling. Tomorrow I am heading up the coast of California into Oregon and I’m fishing the Smith river, the winchuck river, The rogue River, the Chetco river, the elk River, and the pistol river and the sixes River. We are going to be flyfishing for winter steelhead and possibly Chinook and Coho as well as Coastal cutthroat trout. Anyways, thank you so much for watching, remember to like and subscribe and turn on post notifications for more videos like this. As halibut season is starting to happen as well, I will try my hardest to get a keeper and film a very quality cooking video with Halibut Catch and Cook. Steelhead season on the trinity river is also heating up so look forward to that.

I also want to say thanks to all of you for the support and always sticking with me through the ups and downs. It makes my day when someone recognizes me and talks to me in public so if you see me, feel welcome to talk. Anyways. Thanks a ton for watching, remember to like and subscribe as well as comment ideas for videos below. Thanks!!!
