Dont keep your reel in gear... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

TXyakker · 02-25-2009, 07:44 PM

Luckily, all i had to donate to Posiedon was my tackle box and the scotty rod holder i didnt have in the bracket. I'll take losing a couple bucks worth of tackle over hundreds in rods and reels.

That does in fact make my 3rd, and i'm loving it. I did get some major help with the fish yesterday, from one heck of a fishing guide. Though, he could work on his "arrival time" some times. Must be that 8 hours of sleep he requires as a fishing guide

In all seriousness though, for you newer guys looking to learn, he definitely knows whats up and is more than willing to learn you a thing or 2 when you tag along with him.

Nice work Casey - three tails since Sunday is a pretty impressive BENDER!!! Sending me those pictures on Monday must have got the fish gods on your side, even though it sounds like they had a little fun at your expense. Thanks again for the pictures and the great story.

Sure you are ready to head back to Texas?

P.S. - I finally sent you an e-mail today and my post is coming soon

Congratulations I am glad you ended up besting the beast. I was sitting next to you heard the clicker start singing and out of the courner of my eye saw the bottom of your yak rolling up. Great you still had all your rods and could tell it was hard rolling your yak with the yellow still pulling hard. Glad it all worked out...........

Congrats, what a story. Glad all ended well.

Who's the guy behind you?

And that guy on the pretty big boat behind you, he looks familiar...

Congrats to all that scored. And for all that didn't - we rocked, I think we outnumbered these guys that did hook up at least 10 to 1.
