Yellowtail with a friend - video - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Looks like a fun trip. Nice YT too. I fish a single adventure island with 1 outrigger on and it's a pain to load. That double must be a nightmare. I don't want to be an a-hole or know it all so take this if you want; grabbing the line and pulling the fish towards the gaff is a good way to loose a fish.
Your buddy will remember that fish forever. Keep up the good work. Mike

I adored the look, expression and the body language of your friend. Nice job getting him out there and putting him on fish!

Im surprised we didnt loose the fish while I missed with the gaff a few times. Should I just wait for the fish to circle around under me and gaff it? It was my first time gaffing if you couldnt tell

and I definitely welcome advice on how to improve

Thanks for sharing and great job putting your buddy on the fish!

Just a note for your buddy: it's generally a bad idea to stand in front of the yak when surf landing - that's how you get run over by your own yak.
