went out with tyler, fishinkid2010, this morning to hop on the iron bite. i've fished la jolla for at least 3 years and have had nothing to show from it other than an occasional bonito or barracuda. hooked up on the iron around 645, 15 minutes later my first kayak yellowtail is sitting in my lap. sooooooo stoked
after my first sleigh ride, i paddle out to the same spot where i hooked the yellow, and 5 casts later i'm on again, and this time its hauling ass towards the kelp. finally get it to a vertical battle and 25 minutes later we gaff my second kayak yellowtail. it ended up being my all time personal best yellowtail, weighing in at 31.3 lbs after bleeding.
(its the bigger YT on top)
big thanks to tyler for helping me with the landing and bleeding, "Tyler's Guide Service" really made my day. he caught a 30 pounder on sunday, didn't get any today, but karmas gonna pay off for him manana on el Lago Pacifico. tight lines
