Go on a 3/4 trip out of san diego in the summer and you will see yellowtail swimming away all day long. You will feel great!

Congrats very nice video and a great post on something very worthwhile. Had the pleasure to be able to release several good size Yellows in 2015, last year I just didn't get to go fishing enough. I wish now I had taken more pictures, only remembered once and posted on August 2015. Last year I released all the Yellow Tail I caught during the Islander San Clemente Kayak Fishing 2.5 day trip. I was an easy choice since they were all 9-13 lbs. Thanks for sharing Chris.

Sarcastic? Nothing wrong with releasing fish ... and who needs to go on a 3/4 when you have a kayak.

I might start releasing some after I catch one or two, but the first one is going in my belly

I believe he is referring to all the noobs who lose fish on the 3/4 rental road trips.

Gotcha, might have interpreted it wrong ha.

I guess I took it as sarcastic also, because what i've seen on boats is they like to maximize the fish count. I have seen the deck on the way in with large numbers of very small fish when that's all they found. After only catching large Yellows from a kayak and releasing all the small ones, all I could think when I saw that many small 8-12 lb yellows, was "Baby Killers".
