12/24 AM wonder tail powers activate: - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Form of homeguard!

Out along the lobster buoy line, i saw the pelicans really focusing on somethig, then saw the splashes in the distance, tried to make it there, but they sunk. A few minutes later, they're up again pouncing on big greenies, this time 50 ft away and heading right at me! 4 big yellowtail wakes pop up heading right for my boat - this one bit the iron about 10ft from my kayak about 3 ft. down

31# even.

Nice fish Dan, I wanted to go bad this morning, but too much Christmas to deal with.

Ryan The Sealion · 12-24-2006, 12:06 PM

GDDill · 12-24-2006, 12:16 PM

Dan, nice fish :!: That's what I call a nice Christmas eve gift :santa:

Wish I'd gone out instead of going back to bed.

tylerdurden · 12-24-2006, 12:53 PM

Nice fish Dan. It continued after you left. They would pop up chasing macs, but not touching anything we had to offer. Hell of a show. Congrats again. Someone else was on fire, but his story.

Some pics:

Awesome colors with the sunrise

Brad bendo on everyones favorite pinniped

you can see the trap hooked bitten in half mac in this one. The dog didn't bother us any more after this little adventure.

Brad's on the water filet service, reasonable rates, no mess to take home. Only good for non WCW people who don't need to weigh their fish.

Unbelievable xmas eve in San Diego... Nice work Dan, and Patrick... Good seeing everyone, happy holidays!

Attaboy! Looks like you made the holiday season even better. Beautiful fish.

That was the best day of fishing I've had in a long time, and the catching was good too! I'll make a full report when I have time, need to attend to the family now.

Some more pics of da fish killa...

Tough day of run and gun. Never got one to bite.

Nils and I went back out Christmas morning. Conditions looked ideal but the fish never showed.
