Bonefish on the fly in SoCal from a kayak!! What??!! I wish I could have heard your drags screaming.

You are going to remember that for a while!

Big time congrats.

Yeah it does. I would have thought he still would have given you some good runs. I got some big stripers out in Maine last summer on a 9wt, short runs, but got the blood flowing none the less. Hard to beat game fish on the fly.

I have never really targeted bones, but as a kid they were one of the fish I always dreamed of.

Oh, and happy B-day!

Congrats on the bonie. I'm lucky to have caught some when I first got the PA on plastics. A blast.

Nice job! You're still fishing the fly rods, huh. I remember you surprised me with the legal Halibut on the fly.
