Nice Fish!
I gave it a shot at La Jolla today also. And like you I found bait hard to find. Managed one BIG spanish mac, that I finally put out at 0830. I covered some ground trailing that beast behind me, thinking nothing could be interested in that monstrosity.
At 110O that Spanish Mac got hit by a freight train! Whatever I had on the line was not stopping. Finally, ended when my 50 lb braided line broke. An exciting two minutes, for sure. I initially thought it was a seal, but the furbags were nowhere to be seen all day. Who knows. Gonna hit it again tomorrow. Maybe I'll come back with a success story like yours! |

Awesome, feels great right? Four years fishing Dana Point and no kayak Yellowtail yet, not that I target them that much, but one day... Enjoy!

Congrats on a nice fish. That first one always taste the best and be remembered the fondest. Yellowtail from a kayak is awesome and why I go out every time with that in mind. I love to eat them and love even more the sleigh rides. The colors are amazing and I think there isn't a more beautiful fish.

Congratulations on your first Yt
Only thing I got today was a full ganyon of little Bonito released and a 300 pound sealion that hit a Rapala on steel leader lucky for him and me.... it was right at my canoe and I was able to pop it from his lip.

Had the same experience a month ago . . . a dog, a big yellow or a thresher? I'll never know, but it broke off 60 pound braid. Sure doubt a yellow would have done that. Made for an wild 5-10 minutes, that's for sure!
