Today, we’ll be surf fishing with swimbaits! I’ll be using a 4.8 inch Keitech Fat Swing Impact swimbait paired with a Warbaits weedless jighead.
Learning to surf fish with swimbaits has been a long journey for me and it’s only just begun. After using Lucky Crafts and other hard jerkbaits exclusively, last year, I committed to giving swimbaits a go and man! These things change the game. Being able to fish weedless in the surf opens up so many possibilities. For more on that, check out this article on my website that compares jerkbaits to swimbaits: https://surffishingsocalsd.com/jerkbaits-vs-swimbaits-which-is-better-for-when/

How long were you fishing
Hey man! Love the video! I’m new to surf fishing! What’s the best way to read to surf? I’ve been watching videos and it’s so confusing haha
Where is that
So sick bro do you have any recommendations in the LA area?
aint fishin' fun? I live in carlsbad and discovered surf fishing in 2019. I've dialed it in and I love the corbina bite! Keep Casting!
Great fishing…thanks for the video!!
I feel I have to work up to fishin' those reefs. I'll end up losing way too much tackle. But it sure looks like a challenge.
Thanks for the tips Nick!
Great video. Keep them coming.
How the hell do I not get notifications for your videos? Annoying..
Great video! Can’t wait for summer to finally arrive. Any tips for Camp Pendleton if you’ve ever fished there.
Hey I have a question for you….Do you want to go look for some lost treasure on our sailboat? lol
Nice Sandy! I think I may know that spot!!😀 (aka Mace Eraser)
BTW, What color Keitech were you using? Just curious, I have my favorites. Sometimes I feel like action matters more than color. Thoughts?
Nice sand bass! cool vid 🙂
Hey man, love the videos, keep it up! I just started fishing about a month ago and try to get my line in the water at least every other day, but I’ve gotten skunked every time. I’ve been fishing pretty much everywhere from OB to Oceanside, going in the surf and river mouths, off jetties and piers, and in lagoons, and I’ve been switching between cut bait, live sand crabs, and different kinds of swim baits and lures, but nothing wants to bite! Been doing as much research as I can too, but it can be a little overwhelming. I was wondering if you had any tips on how to land that first fish, anything to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!!!
Sick video bud. Glad you caught that beast sandy on camera.
What beach is this?
Wat size rod were u using?
