First YT today

All,

I landed my first yellowtail today. Since I've been spending a bit of time on this site trying to learn from you guys I thought I would take the time to post some pics and say THANKS! Thanks for helping. Especially thanks to the few guys that dropped a few tips on me over the last year or so. You know who you are.

Chris

You never forget your first.

I think you are one of the only kayak anglers to land a big White Seabass before landing their first kayak Yellowtail, though. I'm pretty sure I took a morning glory picture of you this summer holding a nice ghost.

If you haven't put in any time between now and then, with consecutive fantastic results...I would buy a lottery ticket tonight .
