More Redondo Boccaccio- technique used

Hey all-

I've been asked a lot about the tackle/technique I use to bring in some mega-sized Boccaccio rockfish in the canyon. I put together a video (and I'll start posting more soon so please subscribe!) and would like to share it with you all.

I use a 6" Gulp Curly Tail (Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3mvQ1C5 ) paired with a Boxer 3/4oz jig head ( https://amzn.to/35MO6TS ), 2-3' of 25lb fluorocarbon leader ( https://amzn.to/32CBnRv ) to a sliding 6oz sinker swivel rig. I look for rocks and heavy marks at about 260-300' near canyon walls on the up-current side, drop down, paddle about 50 yards to let more line out, and then I start paddling at about 1kt. Most of the time the bite happens as soon as the lure comes off the bottom into the boccaccio's strike zone, which I've found to be between 5 and 20 feet off the bottom. Once you feel like the lure has come up too far, pause the paddling until you hit the bottom again.

Hope this helps!
