We have all been there. The only thing that separates you from the guys who seem to catch fish on autopilot is lots of time on the water. Well, maybe some of these guys are really talented as well.

Anyway, don't give up. One of these days you will catch your first YT. It will be a trophy regardless of what size it is, (mine was a dink weighing about nine pounds). Next you will catch a bigger one and soon you will hook a WSB or halibut. I have been yakfishing for a couple years and am still waiting for my first legal halibut along with a ling, thresher and many of the other tasty things that live in La Jolla.

One thing you will probably find out quickly is that nearly everyone you meet on the water in a kayak will be more than happy to help you in any way they can. It is kind of an unwritten code because, as I said in the first paragraph... we have all been there.
