Nice fish mystery man:cheers1:

Congrats Brian! That's the right way to break in the new ride. Great looking yak by the way.
Man, I recognize that new promar net and Gopro setup. Your wife was right George, that buff makes you look a lot better. Covers up just enough. :D
Nice outing guys.

Were you doing your laundry at the same time......nice halis.

wow great job you two! Amazing consistency from you George, keep cleaning up the ocean floor.

Isn't that dude the guy that NEVER catches any halibut?!!!
cheers to the good dude :cheers1: Nice fish!

I sure could use a third hand

Oh man that was close one.

I was bummed I'm not on the trip with you guys at sci again but stoked I may get to fish it before you. Haha

wooohooo!
that was a close one!

nice job out there guys...I have to agree with the "buff" thing though ...
I hope to someday use my go pro like that...lol:reel:

Nice work!:luxhello:

:cheers1:

:linesnap: i took a couple months off!..


but now i am ready to go !!!!!!:linesnap::linesnap::linesnap:

We thought that maybe you joined the MLPA Wackos....welcome back:D

OUCH....

btw that was my 1000th, closing in on the mystery man.:D

ok so if you must know...

I was playing starwars the old republic.... lol

So.....like.....do you want a prize now?

I dont know what did you get at the 1000 mark?

I have no clue but if there is a prize I'm due for one myself

nice way to break in the new ride! :luxhello:

And yet another.:notworthy:

Did you notice what happened as soon as you stoped supporting the fish by the gaff both times? Great fish George, glad you got to take it home.

Yes, and I did........and do you know what's the first thing or person that came to my mind when that happened?

Wow, that game clip bent quite a bit under the weight of that halibut. I would never know that myself since my fish never break into the double digits.

Nice save George

Nice fish:cheers1:


One suggestion:
http://www.kayakfishingsupplies.com/...me-clip/Detail

My $5 clip works just fine. The only mistake that I made was letting the gaff slide out of its belly.

That is because you needed both hands for your clip lol.

You sure could use a third hand.:rolleyes:

Sweet Catch:reel:

great shots from the GP...nice fish as usual...very tidy report, well done, bravo....great story...well writtin:reel:

speaking of that $5 game clip where did you get the ss rod?

Its aluminum....that's why it bent so easily. Nonetheless, I got it at Home Depot

Great first trip...
 

My first time out I just killed the Kelp!

Nice catch George!:you_rock:

I must say fishing out of a Hobie is pure joy!!!!! Thanks for all the encouragement to join the Hobie family....and to top it off and catch a 10lb 31in Halibut on the Maiden Voyage!!!! Guess the Orange Aventurine color is really good luck...

.....or maybe it could have been George's luck???


Regardless here is the end result....Look forward to many more adventures

Cheers
