Personal best!
 
We launched a little later then we would have liked. No boat lights to be seen on the water. I'm not going to lie, I get a little excited when the squid boats show up. Not to many other yakers out. Scallywags yak is faster then mine and he had scoped the fish grounds out and found the fish. I had passed him up in the dark and was following the kelp line. Then I called out on the vhf to see if this little back dot I was paddling to was my friend. He replyed no thats not me but, White dog you better get over here!:you_rock::cheers1: . I had though he was this dark spot on the water. Not seeing any bait marks and no sabiki rigged I just went straight toward the spot next to my fishing buddy who was making some good bait. Started dropping the iron:jig: . About 15 drops later I hooked it on the drop, a tug, shake and a pull. Caught on a rod I snagged of the bottom a year ago!:eek: After a scare with a dog and some help from a friend I was able to land the fish of a life time 60#.5oz WSB! Accoring to the Dana landing Mission Bay digital scale.

A thanks to all who are taking their time to make sure we have a place to fish:you_rock:http://yahoo.com/

Congratulations on the Big WSB.

This quality of fish absolutely requires you to show up at the DFG Commission Meeting and Help Us !

Its not guilt, its a plea for help!

Great going. Your catch was mentioned on yesterday's "lets talk hookup" radio show.

Damn...
 
Big time congrats, bro! :cheers1:

I heard that's your cherry popper? If that is your first legal WSB, wow! I can imagine what kind of heart rate you had at deep color, pumpin' to say the least. And I'm sure that fish looked 80 lbs below the kayak before you sank the gaff :eek:.

I guess I will have to start launching before 10 a.m. now. The Yellowtail have been fun lately, but I might just give them a rest.
