I saw you out there Thursday Aaron. Yes, I was the one with the dune colored PA. I wanted to say HI to you but you looked like you were having a rough day:confused:. After you and all the boats left, my fishfinder lit up like a christmas tree! I metered a lot of YT under me. Me and my buddy, Dave, hooked three YT's in no time.

I've only had the PA for a week and already have hooked more fish than the past year. Personally, i don't really care about timely reports any more. Because i know there is always yellows in La Jolla. And with improved equipment you will hook up more than ever!

And with all due respect Aaron, you might want to start thinking about buying a new Kayak and retire that old school yak and buy a nice fishfinder. It makes a huge diffrence trust me! It took me a long time to figure that out because i ain't that smart.

With a Hobie, you get to the spot faster with less exhaustion and you spend more time fishing and you can cover a lot more ground. If you are serious about hooking up more, then you may want to make changes in your equiptment.

Aaron, let me know if you want to test out my PA - any time. I have no regrets. Yes, I'm also old school but after seeing all the Hobie guys catching all the fish I decided it was time for a change. So with my new Hobie and nice fishfinder as far as I am concerneed - everyone can keep their up-to-date fiish reports! Don't need them becase i'm GONE fishing!

Thanks, Driftwood.

You're a kind man.

Maybe, someday, when I'm working again, as an Electronics Tech, I'll take you up on that offer.

My name is Steve. I have a Hobie, a fishfinder, I am egocentric and I sometimes fish.

This thread got under my skin a little bit. No worries. I'll post this, then be done with it.

I'm pretty sure the "share" vs. "don't share" debate has been beaten to death. It has, and will always be the choice of the person that does the catching.

What I do have an issue with, is the new breed of guys that think they can tell someone what they are allow to share, and when they are allowed to share it. Not cool IMO. Go start your own website, become the moderator if you really need the power trip. Flaming guys for posting a Report in the Reports section...really? :confused: Is that really the best you can find to do with your free time?:stupid:

Yellows in 90 feet in the NW in the middle of August? On a (Gasp!) slow trolled sardine? Geez, don't blow the whistle on that hot bite :rolleyes:

oops, let me clarify......thanks for the report and pic

Thanks, Stevooo. I knew where you were one of the good guys :)
Even with the fish-fiinder, peddling stuff of craft. There are great ones out there.

Tight lines.

a few yellows around on sat
i didnt find any

Dolphin was busy hookin gulls

i did find a nice wsb with a semi dead mack

NW
wind picked up around 1:30

good luck
and gratz to the OP on ure yellow

and thanks for the report

no do do's alas

ya i saw that BD post too

it's the typical transition of this site...

1. dude buys kayak
2. dude lurks this site
3. dude sets up account and posts relevant reports
4. dude starts catching some quality fish
5. dude decides la jolla is 'his/her' fishing hole and jumps down everyone's throat whenever a timely report is posted...

I always post relevant stuff and always will because I remember what it was like to be at #1. Tight lines.

Nah, That's the old model.

Here is the New School

1) Dude Lurks
2) Dude posts a million meaningless posts to bump the post count
3) Dude buys yak
4) Dude makes bunch of meaningless posts (bump the post count)
5) Dude gets the yak wet, in the bay of course!
6) Dude bumps the post count again. Like a mad man this time...
7) Dude finally gets the balls and takes the yak out to the big water. Realizes its not a easy as it looks.
8) Dude hires Josh & catches a big fish.
9) Dude posts up a DH advertisement disguised as a report.
10) Dude chooses 1 of 2 paths
10a) Dude puts in time OTW, has some success on his own, becomes a decent stick.
10b) Dude thinks that he is God's gift to yakking because he has a fishing code group, or even better, Josh on his speed dial.
11) Dude makes sure that no relevant info is ever posted, especially not in the "Kayak Fishing Reports" section.
12) Dude gets beaten by a girl in WCW :sifone:

PERFECT.......................:you_rock:the no posting started a few years ago by a very convincing guy!

soo...if a 'report' has no relevant info aside from 'look at my big friggin fish that I caught two weeks / month / who knows ago'...is it still a report? Mod, can you set up a bragging board please? I like looking at fish pron as much as the next dude, but to call some of what I see on here 'reports'...hmmm.... oh and bump one on my post count, in 4 more years I might hit 100.

You da man! LOL. You've been around awhile.

Stevooo, seriously, you cracked me up:luxhello:

hahahahah steve. classic.

forgot number 13)Dude buys a boat.

LOL

ouch stevooo that last one has got to sting :D

Stevooo:

I love it!
Wait, you are poking fun at yourself right?
You were beaten by a girl in the WCW...badly right?
Your post count annually IS higher than mine right?
You are conspicuously lacking in timely reports right?

Yep. I love it. Even if it was a matter of the pot calling the kettle black.

Too Funny Steveooo

And mods please remove this from my post count




Cheers :cheers1:

JP

Personally I watch these boards just for the entertaining and quite heated debates. :leaving:

I have ALWAYS poked fun at myself. It would be weird if others didn't.

Although I'm not in WCW right now, I have never been beaten in WCW by a girl. Sorry that you were. Sharon would have beaten me this year though. :rolleyes: Saw that coming, that's why I saved my $20... Give 'em hell Sharon :D

Yes my post count is higher than yours. Probably because I knew about the forum a few years before you? Give it time, I have faith you can post as much BS as me. ADD + boredom sucks.

I think post count is a horrible number to base anything off of. Most of what I post is bullpoop. For instance, this post.

Yes, I am lacking in timely reports. What I post, I do mostly for my own entertainment, plus I need to feed the ego-centric beast that is "Stevooo". (I do peddle a hobie AND I have a fishfinder, and I use Jazz hands OTW)

I have a "Fixer-upper" house, a 2 year old daughter who is very busy, and another daughter due in 2 months. Free time, fishing, and fishing reports are lacking big time. I still fish a tiny bit, but not as much as I'd like to...

Hope you didn't take my last post too seriously. I meant it purely in jest poking fun @ what I see:biggrinjester: Not directed @ anyone in particular. Honestly.

The other alternative is to skip steps 1-6, take your yak out, hook a yellow, stab it with a knife, lose it, and then endure the wrath of the members of this forum when you tell the story of how you lost it...

The Pot calling the Kettle Black? Sure, but I'll be the first to admit, that does sound a bit racist :D:eek::sifone:

Bump :biggrinjester:

Wow!!! My little old post ruffled that many feathers? I feel important now. :luxhello:

I first have to say that Steveoo...your posts are hilarious. However.......

HMMMNN....time to do some fact checking. Looks like back in 2006 a certain gal named Julia Benak, of Aaron and Julie fame, came in 5th to your 24th place tie in WCW.

Here's the link: http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/showthread.php?t=442

5TH PLACE: Julia Benak/400.5 points(10H,1WSB,4YT)Biggest halibut, mulligan played, 1ST C&R YT


http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...cwsteveooo.jpg24TH PLACE:TIE! Steve Orr/24 points(1YT)

I would have also done my best to strike that from the memory banks and not to let history repeat itself. Sharon is definitely an old salt who can hang with the best in LJ. I wasn't joking when I made my comment on her being 'real' competition in WCW. The best part is she doesn't whine for people to post current fishing reports.

To Aaron, if feel pretty sorry for you after reading all of your posts but in the spirit of goodwill and friendship I will throw you a bone by pledging to ALWAYS put the 'date of my trip' on my fishing reports. You may not like how aged they are but at least you will have the comfort of knowing you did in fact miss that bite.

Until then...tight lines and I look forward to seeing you on the water and at the Moyer tourney. :ciao:

I stand corrected. Julie beat me. She should have. I wish my memory was that good. She's really is a hell of a fisher(woman). Anybody got a halibut bigger than hers in that line class? Anybody?

Next?

Eric (X2), I really hope to meet you @ the Moyer tourney. That is waaaay easier to do than this internet BS.

Steve

Steve, you act like we've never met???? :confused: I'm hurt.

My apologies.

Fug, I wish my brain worked better. Forgetful as hell. It happens to a few of us. I don't wish it on anybody.

You think I am kidding, I wish i remembered more...

First, I missed being beat by Julie, now this? :doh: I'm at least 0 for 2, possibly more. Probably more.

See you on the 11th, with all this behind us. I'd offer to bring beer, but it seems there is always a keg available @ the Moyer Tourney.

You won last year, right? Nice Pull! :cheers1:


Steve

Now I'm on a personal mission to help Steveooo get past the 1,000 post milestone.

You sold me your Yakima roof rack last summer. I met you off the 57 to pick it up. I can understand you forgetting a short, fat, unassuming guy like myself.

I didn't win the Moyer....but I did ok.

998

999

1000 Posts! Lets party like it's 1999!

Glad I got that off my chest. (Whew!)

Ahh, the Yakima racks. That's where I met you. What a dummy I am. :doh:

Will you stili be there on Sept 11th for the Moyer? Best tourney I can think of.

Now that I'm @ 1000, , sent you a PM.

Steve

Wow I remember helping someone out to catch their first yoyo fish...now he's all pro!? What's up A.K.G(angry kayak guy). Skiffman is about as old school LJ as I know.....post if u wanna post and save your
Criticism for all the mlpa Eco dorks....good job on the fish skiffman and client!

Dig in everybody!
 

:drool5:

Damn, Steveooo I never paid much attention to that number of posts thing til now...
Is it a good thing or sad thing that we spend so much time typing and not fishing?

Knowing you OTW, tourneys, motherships, and the boards for so long I have to go with the first...
It is a good thing! Congrats on 1000! :luxhello:Although it does seem to be affecting your memory:rolleyes:.

62 more posts Matt and you will be as cool as Stevooo :D

hope you havent forgot the $20.00 you owe me for that thing. :biggrinjester:

And the beat goes on............

hahhahaha! Pretty funny! :D

This too Dan! :p

[/end thread]

Love the drama you cats have down there.

Makes me wonder why you even have a "report" section at all....:you_rock:

ROFLMAO!!! Could not have said it better!

I think it is a way to get our post counts up so we too can be cool like the 1k post guys!:cool:...or someday we can be really cool and get 2k+ posts and run an OEX kayak shop!:rolleyes:

What go's around comes around......

I for one appreciate all the tips and fishing buddies made I've made out there

Thanks Folks....

PS.... some of the Sh&%T that comes off this board is funny as F!!$K!!
