#13705, "11-04 LJ yak session"
|
new to yakking, threw it in at La Jolla this morning- the forks have mellowed since the beginning of the week, pretty slow today, tough to make bait- stoked, managed a nice C&R of a black seabass between 60-70 lbs., my guess, stoked to see her swim home. Epic sleigh ride with the 40 lb. buttoned pretty tight on the TN30. I like this yak thing- I was wondering how guys land these big fish on the yak, found out it's epic, you can dig in your heels and pull hard, let the fish drag the boat, better then stand up IMO- can't wait to figure this stuff out some more- :D

Hey Chris, good to see you've joined the plastic navy. Why don't you come down to Shelter Island next Sat for the final tourney of the Plastic Navy Tournament Trail? It's going to be fun and the raffle is going to outrageous. I pre-fished today and the sandies are defintely making a show.
Nice job on the black too. One thing you can do to wear down a big fish or keep it from going into the kelp is to throw out a drift-chute. I know the thresher guys use 'em.
Amish Ed You can't catch it again if it's dead!

Hey Chris (and anyone else), are you fishing next Saturday? I'm looking to fish somewhere in Laguna for some boileraction, or maybe launch at Dana and paddle up and fish the Monarch area.
