County Line WSB
 

Buddy and I went out to County Line (Malibu) today to chase some white meat. After someone overslept I knew that we would get there way to late for all the action.

Finally arrived around 6:30 easy launch, almost glass all day and easy landing. (for most):D

There is a lot of squid and even I was able to make bait this time (miracle).


Around 9 I hooked up right off the bottom in 75 feet.

I made every attempt to loose this fish.
Got tangled with a friend's line.
Played "chicken" with an anchor line.
Missed two gaff shots.
Straightened out a cheap ass hook.




No "Happy Mother's Day" for this Mom!:D

Looks like you replenished your supply of fish fillets and steaks. Thanks for sharing.

:cheers1: way to make it happen!

No need to hold that pig out for the photo shot. Beauty!

Look at Matt showing off the guns! Holding that monster fish with one arm. Nice Bicep muscle...Congrats on that trophy :cheers1:

I wish some of that squid would visit La Jolla.

Nice!

way to go matt!! Was near you when you were "trying" to gaff. Lol. That fish was a monster to get onboard... Surprised you kept fishing after that catch.. I was in a camo kayak out there.. There was a number of bwe members out yesterday

Carpooled with a buddy. I was "forced" to continue fishing as he had the truck keys.:D. Mostly became the " bait biiiiatch".:D. Was actually hoping for a Hali.

Nice BEast!!!:wsb:

we all thought you kept fishing for your buddies as they hadn't got one yet.. Most went out again today, I would but 2 straight days of paddling around and I need my rest plus its mothers day.. Bait was plentiful, coolest part for me was watching squid in big numbers swim past my kayak 1 foot down (need to bring net next time).. We made to much bait, but nothing enough to get a seabass..

let me know if your out this way again..

That's a real beauty...:wsb:

Filthy slob. Congrats nice fish

I was pretty pissed that I overslept my alarm. I was sure that i was going to make us miss whatever bite there would be. I still cant believe how many sanddabs there were yesterday.

As usual allways fun fishing with you and the "Fish Terrorist"... However if you catch a fish like that again when we are side by side and only you get bit I will punch you in your ovaries.:cheers1:
