FEATURED SPEAKERS KASPAR AND GARY KAZAZIAN – SoCal surf fishing guides whose social media presence is a tsunami, not a mere splash!

For various reasons, whether it’s age, an injury, a hectic work schedule, or even seasickness—charter fishing isn’t always an option for everyone. And let’s be honest, many of us just want to keep fishing during the off-season.


That’s where surf fishing comes in! Kaspar and Gary are here to share their expertise, provide valuable insights, and help us fine-tune our gear so we can hit the surf and, with a little luck, reel in a keeper or even a trophy catch. So “save the date!”


ABOUT KASPAR & GARY —

California Surf Fishing . . . 
started out in 2017 as twin brothers (Kaspar Kazazian and Gary Kazazian) with an obsession for catching game fish (seabass, halibut, sheephead, calico bass, rockfish) from shore. 
 
Through countless hours fishing the beaches of Southern California, the brothers were able to optimize their techniques. By 2023, Kaspar and Gary had written a book about how to catch these fish from shore, titled “California Surf Fishing: The Hunt for Big Fish”. 
 
The brothers had been posting their surf catches on their Instagram page since 2017, and their page eventually started gaining some popularity. By 2023, the brothers were receiving informal guiding requests from anglers looking to improve their shore fishing experiences.  Subsequently, the brothers obtained their guiding licenses from the CDFW and started a formal guiding service. 
 
For the last couple of years, California Surf Fishing has guided hundreds of anglers from shore while continuously refining their shore fishing techniques. 
 
During the presentation, Kaspar will give an overview of the different techniques for catching game fish from shore, as well as the techniques for catching more traditional surf fish such as perch and croakers. By the end of the presentation, Kaspar hopes that the audience will have a good idea of all forms of surf fishing and can decide if they want to further explore California’s expansive coastline.
 
Excerpt from their website: “The journey began with a few small perch and quickly transformed into a lifelong passion for targeting big fish from the surf. By focusing on the factors that affect fish behavior, we developed our two methods for consistently catching trophies.
