8 YEARS IN THE MAKING PART II OOOH HAPPY DAYS!!!!!
 

so, I don't know if you recall my report last week about some fish dope that I got from some guy that knows some guy who's sister works with a guy that knows a guy that fishes on a kayak. Well, today I will not be thanking the guy that knows some guy who's sister works with a guy that knows a guy that fishes on a kayak. However, I will be thanking for myself for putting in a 7.5 hour shift on the water after only 4hrs of sleep.


Sequence of events:
1. It's just after 1200 and I've been on the water since just before 5am
2. I have my last two live baits in the water
3. Rod on the right gets hit by the right kind just the wrong size
4. I snap a photo of the little fella and toss him back
5. I cut my sinker off of that rod and put it away, just about ready to call it a day
6. The rod on the left has a small shake, goes limp and has another shake
7. Since the line is drifting under my kayak I pull it out of the Orca and hold it out on my right side
8. rod shakes, shakes a little harder, loads up and the line starts screaming off the reel
9. I fight the fish for 5 min on a light-medium action Teramar rod, it made 4 runs and each time I prayed that it wouldn't bust off. To be quite honest I was really praying for a halibut but I'll take what I get

Hey I'd take that. Give me some! :D

Can't see the first picture btw.

Very nicely done, congratulations. Some good eats there.

So where can I get those shoes jorge? They have some mojo

Sick!!

Hey Jorge I think you found the secret. Just only get 4 hours of sleep every time you go out. Congrats on the really nice WSB and the personal best.

Booya! You should go play the lottery!!

Sweet!!!!!

pesky bycatch

can't believe you kept it

Nice one m8 that is awesome congrats!

If your not happy?
 

With what you got? I'll be waiting with open arms. Well done . Well done.

Nice one
 

Congrats! I still don't have the patience for Halibut or WSB. I guess that is why I am not catching any.

This Adult Onset ADD is killing my fish mojo for these babies!

The drought is over for you... so it seems
:cheers1:

What a fish! Congrats! :cheers1:

Awesome catch man, well done!:reel:

Nice Tuna Jorge!

Nice work. It's great when the long hours on the water pays off. I've got to get me one of those...What kind of shoes are they?
