Cool thread idea Andy
Is it ok if I google WSB and post a pic? Just so I can show the approximate size of the ones I farmed?:farmer: |
Don, I caught tons of bitchen sunrises from different points of view on the water and savored every soul searching moment I had on the big blue. No porn star this year!

Here is my biggest catch of 2009
57 lb WSB off La Jolla Then I pretty much didn't catch anything afterwards in LA Jolla....the Curse? http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwegall...5/IMG_2420.JPG |
WHOPPER, that is gonna be tough for anyone to top!:luxhello::luxhello::luxhello:

Andy as you know I've only been fishing La Jolla for a year and only really fished it seriously for a few months last spring before the white Seabass showed up, up here.
I caught bigger fish offshore this year, even got my first local Marlin which I've been chasing for years, but even counting my skiff fish I still got to go back to this La Jolla fish from last March as my favorite: http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/8402/91709440.jpg It's such a beautiful and pic, (thanks Josh) My second La Jolla Yellowtail (caught my first that morning) I was fishing alone and found my own fish (Josh was fishing Halibut at the time, and there was no-one else out there) For me it just does not get much better then that. Here's both my first and second La Jolla tail from that dayhttp://img413.imageshack.us/img413/9341/double.jpg I remember at the time you told me doubles like that are one in a million. I imagine one of these days I'll get bigger or more tails on my yak, but that fish and that day is going to stick with me for a long time. Jim |

it was a pretty good year, fished the bays allot, won my first tournament [OEX night tourny], caught my first WSB [juve in the bay!] and enjoyed setting up and getting used to a new yak. The picture is a Miramar LMB. Not a huge fish, but I am learning the LMB scene and I find Miramar tough to coax fish from.
Happy New Year and tight lines everyone |
120 lb Yellowfin Tuna from my kayak at Hannibal bank Panama. Took over three hours to land.

I think I will have to pass on this one. If you combine the weights of all the "big" fish I caught this year the total does not come close to the monster WSB that Bigbarrels caught.
Maybe next year. Bob |
Perfect post to follow Jim...
