I meant out fishing WITH my man. Went fishing out of Dana Point today, offshore winds at sunrise settled down and got warm fast. Nice guy at the bait barge but a crappy scoop of 80/20 chovies and dines. My husband fishes a lot but hardly ever brings home any fish. Today's only excitement for me was this big BENDO:D

It was obvious that it was a shark and took some time to tire for an easy release. Thankfully a local fisherman named Dave P. took pity on us and we will be eating halibut tonight.:D Maybe next time my partner will catch something to warrant taking his piclol

Sounds like you were aided by Dave Pliska. He is a halibut fisherman of reknown in the DP waters (and possibly elsewhere as well).

:captain:
thanks 4 the post

You and your man should have a rematch, in La Jolla :D

Great bendo shots!

First post and a front page! :cheers1:

Welcome to BWE.

I believe that the California halibut have the David P. character ranked high on their most dangerous enemy list. :)

very nice catch...at least you caught something...I havent had any luck there....:luxhello:

Nice catch and those are some good picts

Nice Bendo...also nice pink X13. What does your fishless hubby paddle?

cool, what kind of shark was that?

It was a leapard........about 30-40 pounder. I was a little nervous as she took off backwardslol She made short work of it, but a lot of "It's too heavy!":rolleyes::D

I could swear the lady looked familiar... :D

you dont like to eat leapard??:)

Beautiful day at a least.
