All the fish were on the yo yo. Took me back to my trip to cedros. Haha. We had four others on the jig that we had on for a while and lost. It was a fun night. For sure some soar muscle fun. It was way more fun watching bailey on his fish than it was getting my own. To see someone get their first good yellow is priceless.

After 2 fish, how about catch and release? There is not an unlimited supply and if you release, you or someone else can catch it again. Plus it might be able to reproduce. 80-120# of fish is alot for 2 people.

no need to flame. I'm certain all that fish is being well cared for and eaten quickly. Most of us do our part and release a fish and understand the LJ fishery. I personally would rather eat and freeze fish I caught rather than eating restaurant fish that was most certainly caught by seiners and gill nets or asian farms.

805Gregg - Some seiners can bag as much as 20,000 tons per year. That's 40,000,000 (40 Million) Pounds per year, not including by catch. By slaughtering some yellows here and there, and living off that, we are not supporting the 40 Million Pound / year seiners and all their trashed by catch... I don't know if that makes sense, but it seems logical to me.

Read up on it...
