La Jolla 8/11 Mola Mola - Ocean Sunfish
Just thought I'd share this. My first catch of the day.
Never seen an Ocean Sunfish at La Jolla before, let alone snag one!

I used to see a lot of these when I used to fish the 150spot. Are they edible?

 No there was no fight. It does try to swim, but it moves so slow there was absolutely no fight to speak of. Not sure if they are good eating, but I wasn't gonna find out. I heard it's bad luck to bring them onboard. So I just snapped a few pics, took out the hook, and sent him on his way. |

i think the Opah's are the ones to take home, the mola's are best to be left uneaten.
