Underwater SURF PERCH Fishing | California Coast

We saw some awesome underwater footage of surf perch taking the bait! The California coast is loaded with these fish! From barred perch to striped seaperch, we saw a little bit of variety in fish species down there. It was amazing to have an underwater view of the spot I had been fishing for years. We weren't quiet surf fishing, but rather dropping baits into an inlet that led out to the ocean. Shrimp was the bait of choice. As you can see from the underwater camera, these surf perch were taking the bait, but very hesitantly. You can tell they have seen this before. Surf perch are a rather sought after fish in california. They taste great and they are fun to catch. This underwater surf perch footage was amazing to edit and watch, and it helped me learn a bit more about california perch fishing.
