The Pacific Bonita or Bonito if you will. They are not separate species, just separate pronunciations. lol I was hooked on kelp bed fishing for the Calico Bass. I had a 12' zodiac inflatable with a 15 HP outboard. I fished the kelp quite a bit and have caught some very nice ones. I often caught Sand Bass and Spotted Bay Bass and they were all related to each other in the taxonomic charts. Fishing for Calico Bass was a big pastime of myself and my young bride. She loved fishing and hunting. Hard to find a girlfriend nowadays who likes those things.

Very interesting video. You would probably catch the heck out of those Bonito fish with a fly rod and a Clouser minnow or needle fish fly. You have a great sporting attitude that is fun and pleasurable. Im a mainly catch and release kind of guy. I prefer a fly rod but will fish with anything. This fall Im figuring out catching steelhead on worms in the Rogue River. Keep up the great work. To infinity and beyond forever, Tom Purtzer

on your red conventional rig I noticed the guides on that pole past the first two base guides appear to be turned 45 degrees as if it was a two piece rod connected together with the end half turned 45 degrees to your right. doesnt this put abnormal stress to the pole and also possibly on the line? just curious.

Robert, love your videos! I need to buy one Trout rod and reel for small to medium fast water river fishing using spinning lures and spoons. The trout I catch are 15 to 21. What rod and reel and fishing line do you advise me to buy? I am grateful for your videos.

Great videos Rob. We get Bonito in Australia also but we call the other one that looks like this fish but more tuna. We call it a Mac Tuna here. Great fun but crap eating. PS You should come to aus.

The Bonita you catch in Florida is actually called a False Albacore. The Bonito you caught here is very similar to the Atlantic Bonito.
