Sportfishing since 1935

Cut out the fluff for this quick recap from a recent trip aboard The Producer out of H&M Landing.
Last Thursday aboard The Producer out of H&M Landing, Captain Frank Brenha hooked into an absolute monster tuna. The only problem? He was just messing around with a KastKing reel spooled with light-grade line, definitely not the ideal setup for pulling in a giant! What follows is an absolute masterclass in finesse fishing. Watch as Captain Frank puts his decades of professional know-how on display, remaining totally calm and patiently reeling inch by inch to keep the light line from snapping under the massive weight of the fish. Just when it looks like he is going to pull off a miracle, San Diego's most notorious villain shows up. A massive sea lion swoops in, spooks the tuna, and pops the line! No fish this time, but an unforgettable battle at the rail. Video Highlights: The Gear: A KastKing reel and light-grade line (Do not try this at home when the tuna are biting!). The Skill: Capt. Frank demonstrating perfect drag control and rod pressure to fight a heavy fish on light gear. The Heartbreak: The "Taxman" (a local sea lion) showing up at the worst possible moment to steal the glory. JOIN THE CONVERSATION! 👇 What is the most painful catch you've ever lost right at the boat? Tell us your heartbreak story in the comments! 👍 If you respect the fight, smash that LIKE button and SUBSCRIBE to H&M Landing for more real, raw San Diego sportfishing moments! Rig Up & Ride Out: Want to fish with the pros (and hopefully avoid the sea lions)?
