Ep. 123: Daniel, Charly & Luke on Glizzies at the Ramp, Spotty Bowl & Costa Rica

Hosts: Daniel Dahlin ([FISH]rx), El Charly, Luke Dean (Bait Slingers / Artemis Charters)

Glizzies at the Ramp is back — May 23rd, Cabrillo Launch Ramp, 6 a.m. pre-launch, hot dogs at noon. Episode 123 is a no-guest hang, recorded live on March 31, 2026: Spotty Bowl season check-in, bladed jig down pylons, and Daniel heading to Costa Rica soon with better gear and better expectations than the last time he was there.

In This Episode

• Glizzies at the Ramp confirmed for May 23rd at Cabrillo Launch Ramp — no raffle this year, just fishing, community, and free hot dogs. Time on the Water merch pre-sale coming for pickup at the event
• Daniel’s Spotty Bowl season — three sessions in, connecting consistently. A conversation earlier this year with Caesar clicked something into place and the whole season has reflected it
• Purple Sticky Punch colorway of the RX Slug and RX Paddle Tail now live on Bait Slingers — Luke fished it until it was torn up without stopping to take a single photo. That’s the review
• Bladed jig down pylons — Luke’s been jigging the bladed jig vertically up and down pylons like a slow pitch jig. Longer casts along the dock still the most productive approach, but the vertical presentation has been producing
• Daniel heading to Costa Rica soon — surf fishing for pargo, snapper, and roosterfish with lighter tackle this time. Last trip he was throwing 50lb test from the surf. Not again

Beyond the Rod & Reel on Glizzies at the Ramp

The Glizzies origin story is worth knowing if you’re new to the show. The first one was maybe 20 people. Last year it was 120. The whole point has never been a tournament — it was always just a reason for the community to be in the same place at the same time. Four guys packed onto an inflatable, nobody competing, everyone just fishing. That was the template and it still is.

This year they’re stripping it back further. No raffle — it added work and started to feel like the point, when the point was always just fishing and hot dogs. If you want to show up, Daniel’s cooking. If you want to fish first and come in at noon, that works too. If you’ve never met anyone from the community in person and just want to put a face to an Instagram handle, that’s enough of a reason. May 23rd, Cabrillo, 6 a.m.
