My turn... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

THE DARKHORSE · 07-08-2010, 12:32 PM

I still can't believe I didn't get photos of our doubles on the jig-sticks. We had double after double and started catching them on all of our different rods---why not!?! Well, becuase sometimes you hook a 200 lb Black Sea Bass on the ten-footer---that's why not!

If I never saw Aaron again, this is the image that is forever burned into mind. Every time I looked at that guy he had a huge smile and a doubled over rod. We'd throw each other a shaka' while bendo, pedal our fish in different directions---all the while laughing like a fifth grade, class clown. I laughed until my stomach hurt that day. This poor guy was on his brand new Hobie Revo, with a new sonar and fresh line on all his reels. Enough for most any guy to be stoked out of their mind, fish or no fish. We caught fish, though!

Congrats on the awesome catch!

I have only met Josh through a friend, but I have seem him work his magic....My buddy and I were out there and it was pretty slow... the only bent rods that day were Josh's client....and of course Josh...That SOB got a yellow, first drop on his tsubiki going for Squid!

I know its not magic (OK, hooking a YT while going for squid on first drop is, but landing it isnt!), but knowledge, skill, confidence, time on the water, etc, all wrapped up in one...

I call him the Fish Whisperer!!!
