![]() Another sweet post, with a good story and some awesome fish... ![]() ![]() BUT... . . . . . . . . . A slam is a slam and whether it takes a 10lb flatty or a 2 lb spotty to get the job done... you ought to go finish the job... ![]() Sometimes the challenge isnt about catching limits of yellowtail for days on end... sometimes it is something as simple as pulling in a little-o flatfish and if they are being stubborn... all the more challenge Come on Josh... Just-do-it?

Thanks for the motivation guys!

Yes, while the HDS is great for locating structure and miniscule grass beds---it's not like I'm running over meter-marks with schools of fish below the boat. And you're right; my Kaenons don't help much trying to look 80' down. The Halibut are lucky in that regard. ![]() And Bellcon, believe me I tried. I referred to my Halibut recon missions this month as the Halibut curse. Something different went wrong each time I targeted them. One trip, my bait-pump died less than a minute after I plugged the tank with Sardines from the bait barge (six miles short of my intended destination). This was the first time I've bought bait in years. All of which were dead by the time I made it to the spot. Another trip I lost my intake tube, which has never happened before. Another trip I forgot my Mirage Drive with the Pro Angler. Which is something I haven't done in a very long time. I'm talking straight up booby-trap $h!t!!! ![]() I'm with The Kid on this one; all that work just to wind in a wet sock for thirty seconds? ![]()

It's no kayak, it's a bag of tricks...
Josh is a superhuman fisherman. But storytelling? Let me
tell you: He's one of the best. Here's why. The story is never ending. You think you've just read a fish report. It's no fish report. All I read is, "I fish, I surf, I fish, I surf" However, if I were a halibut, I'd high-tail it out of La Jolla, pronto. |

Dude! Your stories are great but I can't read.... I like pictures, they say a thousand words so I'll comment on what I saw. Nice freakin' yellow, sweet slug of a dubby S B, that is pretty white lipstick you got there and next time bring extra tampons, you made a mess of yourself....... Or was that you just trying out the new Hobie handlebars!!!!!! YYyyeeeeeaaaahhhhh Josh!
