It does look like Venice pier.>>

He is dragging the fish with a "pier gaff". If he had hooked it in the sand he would have a rod in his hand.>>

My guess is that he hooked the fish on the pier, where he could snag it from below. But could not lift it with a pier gaff. He then went on the sand to land it. I have seen it done before.>>

My guess for German comment is that the person who was recording may have looked German. The photographer says "I am not German" if you check it out.>>

She's a real peach ain't she? Best part is when the by stander says "she needs to take her medicine". No sure I could stay as chill as that guy if she was up my business like that. Mike

Damn he must've been going around the light poles like a mad man just to get to the end of the pier.
Not to mention the pier doesn't go straight down.

I agree, it must have not been an easy task.

That is why I only fish for big fish from the surf, or the dock at Catalina Mole.

Poor Üter.

It is Venice pier in the background.

Looks like he was surf fishing.

There are more YouTube video on line.
