MBF @ Irvine 12/10/11 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

YakMedic · 12-11-2011, 10:17 AM

Roby thanks for setting this up. I fished all day and all I caught was a big skunk. I had a multiple hits and a couple hook ups but never brought any to the yak. Had a great time out there, I proved to myself once again how horrible of a trout fisherman I am.

Congrats to Erick

I also want to say thanks for setting this up it was fun. I only ended up with 1 small trout. Found out I was trolling to quick. But on the plus size I got my personal best large mouth bass at about 5lbs and another one slightly smaller. Didn't take a pic but 3 of you guys saw me hold them up. To bad bass didn't count for the competition lol. But I had fun, was cool to meet all of you, we gotta do somthing like this agin

Looks like fun times out there, guys. The conditions here in the 805 were just too good yesterday, so I didn't make it to Irvine. I'll plan to go sometime in the next couple of months when rock fish is off-limits.

It was delicious, but i had to put 3 of them in the freezer. Just two were enough to feed 2 adults and 2 kids. Thank you

Looks like a good time guys. Working on weekends sucks. But on a brighter side, I caught the same number of fish as Frank and saved the 22$ lake entry

. Congratulations Ericko.

first off, i want to thank roby for setting this up. most my fish were caught trolling a pink tuna feather.

it was actually a pink Diawa SC shiner. had three bumps and lost two. i had 4 fish at the weight-ins. after the weight-ins i went back out and caught my fifth fish by 2. my friend fished from shore and only caught 1 fish all day. so he put it on my stringer to take pictures. congrats to you erick. good thing you caught that last fish on the way in. hope to see you guys out their again.
