La Jolla March 7, 2013 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

fearlessfiasco · 03-08-2013, 09:13 AM

So when i got the fish back to the gf's place I weighed it using the old bathroom scale thing. The difference between me holding the fish and not holding the fish was just a bit under 30lbs. Not sure how accurate that is but its exciting still to know it was close to 30lbs.
Definitely the biggest fish I've ever caught. Massively exciting to to have the chance to be pulled around by that fish. I'm so new to kayak fishing my first thought was that I was stuck on kelp. I quickly figured out that kelp doesn't shake or take line and my next thought was, "God I hope its not a shark or a BSB".

If I wasn't hooked on kayak fishing before, I definitely am now. What a rush!!!!!
