Geez, all that kelp had my palms sweating. All hail the mighty spectra

Really liked watching you battle that YT.

Awesome video! I can't believe how hard you are pulling on that fish. Wish we had yellowtail in Norcal.

That kelp situation looks like a serious challenge.

Watched the whole thing...great job bringing him in quick.

Thanks for the couple of bait. They are hard to make these days.. I did end up hooking up later that day and broke a rod

for my lack of cranking that SOB out of the kelp quick enough....

You earned that beer.... Great fish! Congrats!

Thanks for the awesome video. Props to the fish for giving you that great sleigh ride and to you for the way you worked it.

I know how much people like their music. I just wish I could have heard the hull slap, your reel screaming, maybe some heavy breathing, light cussing and that victory yell I think I could barely make out at the end. That's real music, to my humble ears. (Just wishing aloud).

But back to my real point:

on the nice fish and great video.
