Tuna in la Jolla?
Could have sworn i saw a guy catch a yellowfin tuna in la Jolla this weekend. Anyone know anything about this? I was fishing the jewel via kayak for the first time in a while outside the nw corner in 19 fathoms. Watched a pod of porpoise blow through an ivory pro angler about a quarter mile outside of me and he hooked up. Landed a fish I swear to have been a tuna. Anyone have word on this?

not on this site. very hush hush
|
Don't dolphin & porpoise's often swim with Tuna? I guess it's possible. That would be freekin cool.

Looks ready to be cut up for lobster bait.
If it is indeed an honest catch, good job, that is something special. |

I never would have thought to pack sushi for lunch on the kayak ;). Here is what I usually opt for to pack for my on the water snack-
Jalapeño Cheddar Roast Beef wrap. So tasty. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...r/file-111.jpg |

Right place Right time! Congrats....if there is any year for inshore tuna this is the one. Probably the one and only bluefin caught off LJ from a kayak. When WON and Lets talk hookup get word of this ur phone will be ringing off the hook:luxhello:.

Drake, congrats if it's legit, a truly awesome catch off of La Jolla. While I have witnessed a Dorado years back caught inside of the NW corner, I've never heard of bluefin caught there. We used to catch them not far from the mouth of Redondo harbor over a deep canyon, many years ago, so anything is possible, I suppose.
But, I can understand anyone's skepticism, as that fish looks like it's been in a fish hold for days, i.e. offshore trip and maybe one that didn't stay chilled properly. Having fished many a tuna trip and worked on albie boats, it's hard to believe that fish got that beat up in a kayak, on the same day it was caught. My 2 cents. If this is gag, with other parties in on it, it's a good one, but I'm not biting. Too many pranksters around here to take this as legit. More power to you if it is on the up-and-up. Aaron |
Finnneeeee. I'll come clean. I was going to let this go for a day or two but too many people don't like the fun.
The OP was a deck hand on the boat and we thought it would be funny =) Plus theres been no more than 5 boats/kayaks in LJ. This was to see how much our sites fishdope effects the cove. I'm expecting to see a bunch more boats out tomorrow. And to all those who say its days old. It was only about 7-8 hours or so. Times are slow, let us have some fun. Too many people getting their panties in a bunch. LIke Matt and his lobster post. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...kes/photo6.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...45608967_n.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...s/IMAG2179.jpg |
Drake, glad you came clean, rumor has it there was a mob of anger divers with re-breathers coming to throw bricks at you!
|
You might have fooled the same people that Matt did with his out of season lobster prank.
|
Drake, does not matter how much you deny it, Iknow that there are tuna in LJ.
I am coming to LJ to troll feathers and wood plugs, you can't fool me. I have multiple witnesses to you catching that tuna. Everyone, WFO tuna at the corner.:D I heard that they also will go ape sh@t over a slowly trolled undersized lobster. |
should have kept it going!
:luxhello: |
