After the Rain 1/27/2015
 
This year, I went to the sewers three times and got skunked twice. Finally, today I got double. It was a wonderful day of fishing. Not much to say.

Here are my pictures:

My first fish at 10:55 A.M. The butt is 29 inches.

My second fish at 11:15 A.M. The butt is 32 inches.

This is my best personal record for catching double and the biggest I have caught so far.

Very nice, I'm itching to catch a nice butt.

octico 01-27-2015 03:41 PM

kayakfisherman 01-29-2015 10:03 AM

Man oh Man, those are some good eats.

There's nothing like coming home with two beauties!!

Subarualmen 01-29-2015 10:53 AM

Do you worry about a seal coming up and taking a bite at the fish while they are on the stringer?

LBKayakDude 01-29-2015 02:01 PM

I second that question. Do you guys keep em hung over the the side or just throw em in a hatch and get back to shore.

Back in 2013 I went roughly 4-5 months without catching a single legal fish, I was the the butt of every joke, every weekend. I can't tell you how much I hated going out the next weekend wondering if it was it was going to be another skunk. Your continued efforts in fishing a spot that did not produce for you shows that you were determined to get something and you did. You really have no one to thank but yourself......good job buddy!!!

That all depends on what you're doing and where you're at. If I'm drifting I will leave my fish hanging, if I'm moving I'll stick on the deck. If I'm at LJ chances are I would not leave a fish hanging over the side, not with all of those seals around.

LBKayakDude 01-29-2015 06:44 PM

Makes perfect sense. Thanks jorluvil

W a s out there again today. Took my time. Made a few nice greens for bait. Found a fishy looking spot and sent the fella down. Almost instant something bit it hard. I let it chew on it for a bit and I thought it had swallowed it....tried to set the hook but slipped right off. Sent it back down it must of spooked it away.... Had some nice big bite marks on the mack...sooo close...... Met smelly fingers out there today thanks for the smelt I couldn't make anymore bait after 10....was a good day nonetheless and tried out my new Polaroid xs100 it was pretty cool too bad water was so foggy couldnt get any underwater footage besides a baby seal playing

Yes I do worry, but because I have been fishing at the sewer for quite awhile it has not happened to me yet. And what Jorge commented is true.

I've missed too many halibut this way to not fish with trap hooks. Especially when exclusively targeting the flat kind. The setup I tied for my friend last time out hooked a yellowtail in the corner of the mouth with the circle trap. Had the rig not used a trap hook, he would have not caught his fish.

cell128 01-30-2015 07:26 AM

Will try trap hook next time. Thanks.
