U MIGHT WANT TO BREAK OUT THE HAND CREAM & PAPER TOWELS 4 THIS FISH PORN!! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Arne · 02-05-2010, 06:51 AM

Damn I didn't want to do this ... but just so the "record's" straight:

All the fish was eaten. Two fish in one day, three fish in three days, five fish on a three day trip, who friggin cares. It wasn't gill netted, store bought fish ... it was perfectly legal ... it surely wasn't immoral ... and it wasn't, imfo, excessive. 'Nuff said.

The "record" is pretty meaningless - I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. It's gonna be broken. But if you're gonna consider "what ifs" ... then get 'em all in

Mine was bled otw. Don't know how long it was b/t catch and scale but I'm guessing at least a few hours. I fished a while longer - at least long enough to fight another yt where I "practiced my release" - got a few pics in, distributed some bait, paddled in, took some more pics and tape shots, stopped for coffee, yadayadayada, and then drove up to Oceanside for the weight. It, too, was dry and stiff ...

I'm out,
Arne

Nice, Arne, likely the most class guy ever to paddle in La Jolla getting called out by a guy with 10 posts on this site.

I've been reading post from Arne over the years, Great fisherman with a wealth of knowledge. Definitely someone to learn from.

Jim Day - Way to put it down on the other site, another guy with a wealth of knowledge.

Jim, you sure have riled them up over at BD. I don't visit that site very often but this thread over there is very entertaining. I guess there must be a lot of people out there who don't have much to do these days.

For the record, I love the photo of you with your big YT. Please feel free to post it over and over. Great fish, great smile and an unbeatable hat.

Well it was fun for a while....

You know it's weird for me: since I both fish skiffs and kayak I feel like I can see both sides. I've posted at BD since it first started up and used to have a reputation there but since I started yakking I don't post much because there is so much info I can't post there.

Seems I pissed off some of the new guys who do not know me, and I got a lot of the standard BS.

I just said what a lot of people are thinking, as to what went down afterwards, well I guess that was pretty predictable.

I got several PM's from the mods over the thread, some saying it was good to see me posting and others saying if I didn't watch it they were going to boot my ass. Par for the course when you start saying things that are not the status quo.

Hopefully it will make some guys think about posting your info from here to there, but who knows.

As to the whole wasted fish BS.... One word... Freezer!!!

I got maybe thirty pounds in mine but that is not going to keep me fro trying for more. It all get's eaten and it's far too good to let go bad.

Jim Day, please do not speak for La Jolla kayakers on BD. You do not represent us. You've been involved in way too many of these retarded internet fights. Don't let the door hit you in the ass.

I apologize to retarded people.

Yes Jim I am not a Senior Member like yourself and Arne. I do respect the longevity and experience of this forum. Envy may have been my primary motivation for the use of the word excessive but I did not call Arne a lair as I suggested Mr. Miller may be. I apprecaite Arne sharing that he did practice some restrant with a realease on his extraordinary day. My question is how the heck do you land and release another fish with two 50 lbers in your yak? That is truely a feat of a lifetime.

I apprecaite the inshights shared on this forum and I was mainly motivated by a desire to get the most accurate information to all. Mr. Miller is obvious a talented fisherman and I appreciate his sharing of tecniques as well. However, I also agree that one pic post a week may be sufficent to get the point across to those in the know.
