LJ here I come - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

bellcon · 09-22-2009, 11:50 AM

After fishing LJ all most exclusively for the first few months of 2009
I havnt been back in awhile

I lost a monster butt locally (long story)...and I had to work hard for redemption
I had to work out some demons if you will...

Well I havnt got that monster yet (I am sure it will haunt me like my lost wsb, Kiyo says I will never live it down

) but this one makes me feel like I can at least leave the local ones alone for the time being

No on the water shots
no one else was stupid enough to be fishing "Hurricane Gulch" yesterday...

Thought it might turn into a "monster"

My son took this pic...
Told him i would post it

I miss La Jolla
and cant wait to get down there
seeya soon

Hmmm, long, tall fish, but not too broad.

Nice one.

Don't let Kanye around your halibut, he's a gay fish.

I heard that pouring a could beer down an unruly fish's throat stops them thrashing right away. I haven't had an unruly fish on the boat yet, and haven't caught a halibut that big, so don't reallly know. At the very least, that can would make it harder for the fish to bite you.

Congratulations on a nice catch. Thanks for posting.
