My first WSB of the year

[sharonkayak]

After months of weekly fishing in LJ it finally pays off. I was pretty much in shock when I got this baby on the boat. I think my friend said my lip was shaking. It had been way to long without a good fight or bite.

I had been trying to catch a rock fish all day. I had finally given up, and was trying for something bigger. I ended up hooking up within 5 minutes. Luck and maybe some skill.. I was under some pressure since my friend caught a nice thresher that morning. both were released.


just kidding, kept the wsb.

46 lbs.. oh and sorry a bit late. caught 3/23/2011 10 am.

[tunaseeker]

Well done! Nice fish....Time on the water pays off sooner or later.:luxhello:

[JoeBeck]

Sure beats catching a rock fish :cheers1:. Nice WSB!

[StinkyMatt]

One heck of a rock fish!

Mine always look like a sculpin!

Congratulations!:):):)

[PescadorPete]

Nice fish Sharon! I heard the rumor last week and figured it must have been you.

[inshorefisher]

Awesome. Pass the :wsb:(luck) this way.

[chris138]

That thing is a pig!!! You are such a badass sharon! I especially love the dangling mack. Bet your friend who caught the thresher was just as excited for you! ;-)

Pete no love this morning? Good to see you out there... I guess T-sharks are better than nothing. Epic conditions.

[DESTROYER]

Awesome Pictures. Love the Mac hanging out! :wsb:

[Pescavore1]

... sorry a bit late. caught 3/23/2011....

Congratulations, Sharon. No need to apologize for the late post. I remember that day very well. I was sitting in a meeting thinking about the beautiful weather, and wishing I would be on my kayak. Your post gives me the motivation I need to stop wishing and just go fishing.

i think I was more stoked for you guys on the beach than you were, was wondering when this picture was going to surface. That thing was a beast..

Hey Chris, good to see you. No love today. Unlike Sharon, all I got to pull on was a thresher. I figure its just gets me in shape for my 1st WSB this season.

[wiredantz]

That fish would look alot better in my hands!



Congratz. so jealous

[old_rookie]

Those pics are great! That fish really helps. Yeah, the mac in the background is great. Hard to believe you are sitting in the ocean.

[da22y]

Who needs fishfinder , GPS , mirage drive etc...

I have all of those, and can't catch WSB this big !

Congratulation ! :luxhello:

[Kaijuu]

Looks like you had a better day than the one a couple weeks ago when I met you and Steve. I guess I'll have to visit you sometime soon. Nice fish.

[Rav3n805]

Nice :wsb:! Thanks for sharing

[Regor]

Nice ... congrats!

:luxhello:

[-scallywag-]

da-da-da-daayyyyymmmmm!!!!


sooo.....did you catch that on the "super top secret mackerel jig" :biggrinjester:


Nice Fish!!!

[Jimmyz123]

Great report. That is a beast.

[sharonkayak]

Ha ha. the picture is deceiving. I didnt catch the fish with the mac! maybe a relative of him...

[dos ballenas]

next time make sure you take your picture while sitting sideways on your kayak. Otherwise people might start to think you caught that fish on your own :D

beautiful fish btw... inspiration to say the least

:you_rock:

[Aaron&Julie]

Nice catch, and wonderful weather. Congrats.

[roadx]

[Kayak805]

Hey Chris, good to see you. No love today. Unlike Sharon, all I got to pull on was a thresher. I figure its just gets me in shape for my 1st WSB this season.

Honestly, I could care less about the White Sea Bass (nice fish, though).

Now, a hot-chic who launches in the dark to catch big-fish is another story. If it's the last thing I do, I really want to catch one of those! :eek:

[driftwood]
