Dinner tonight - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Aaron&Julie · 01-25-2006, 06:58 PM

With unfavorable conditions at La Jolla, we decided to take our kayaks up to Dana Point yesterday for halibut. Launched at sunrise, fished until sunset. We were jonesin' for our first WCW points, and we figured we had our best chance up there.
Around 11:00AM after working Doheny beach all morning with plugs, plastics, and live 'dines, Julie was rewarded with this:

It weighed 6lbs, measuring 25 inches. Tape shot will accompany WCW submission. Briefly considered the extra few points for C&R, but opted for a couple great meals instead.
It was the only legal fish of almost 20 caught. Aaron had one that measured 22.5" with mouth open, only 21" mouth shut.
Julie continues her halibut hot streak at Dana, while Aaron continues to be relagated to net man.

Sweet, 1st points!!! 8) Congrats.

We miss the shoots with that trippy wavy camera.

You guys keep that one for bigger models, ha?

Nice two pointer Julie!

I'll be happy when I catch my first legal from the kayak.

Well done! Don't take this personally Aaron, but my money's on Julie to finish in the higher spot out of you two. :lol:

Maybe she can teach Ken how to catch those things. I've tried, but I think he's a lost cause. :lol:

Nicely done Julie!

You two are in the lead in the WCW-hubbywife division.

...too late, screw you Mad.

How much money?!?
"Maybe she can teach Ken". I taught her, and I'm still looking for my 1st legal kayak 'but. She's now 4 ahead of me, 2 of those on the same day.
