Dos please!!! Con todo!!!! Cabrillo 7/21
 

Planned to head out solo today for some therapeutic alone time. Alarm went off.....wasn't feeling it.... Went back to sleep.... Woke up again said f it I'm going. Hopped on frewweay with LA traffic already building at 6am ...hating life.... Picked up my usual iced caramel mcd coffe. On the water around 7.... Water was calm and smooth. Didn't plan on making bait as I was already late so bought a scoop of nice sized dines. Headed out to a good spot...no bites for an hour. Headed out to another spot thats been nice to me... An hour and a half of nothing....then....
Hookups!!! A dirty stinky rockfish :( just slapped it and let it go.... Noticed my bait was dying...down to half alive.... Figured I should move on... Decided to try one last dine dropped it In while I rigged another line up that I had lost a few minutes ago... Then this nice 32" butt decides to take the kayak ride....freaking thing almost flipped me over once it saw the kayak... Made a good run but brought it back up and sank the gaff..... Was happy and decided to head back in... Still had a few baits left alive so stopped by a good looking spot..... Dropped 2 in the water and they decide to go dancing and mess up my spectra....
fffffffuuuuuuu!!!!!! Had cut cut off about 15ft of 80lb spectra on the jx.... Dropped just one didn't wanna do that again. A few minutes go by and wwhhhhaammm I'm on!! Didn't fight very much like the first one... Bring it with color and shhhiiiiiittttt its freaking hugeee!!!! Does a small run down.... Bring it back up and it starts trying to spit the hook... Even jumps out of water about a foot... Fish Was crazzyy!! Finally calmed down a bit and kisses the gaff.....came in right at 40" :eek: Had my camcorder but forgot to charge it so only turned it on after I had both fish gaffed won't post videos uless u guys wanna see me beat the crap out of them with bat and knife.... They just wouldn't die!!! Good short day! On the water at 7 off at 12 My goal of getting a 35"+ accomplished with a fat 21lb 40" now on to the damn yellows that just won't play!! http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07...a2de3d4b0b.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07...080745c5a2.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07...3694857b39.jpg

Halibuts and beer.:drool5:

Aye Jaime, we recently had someone vacate a position with Team Sewer, unknown why he left, we're still waiting for his reply.

Anywho, are you interested in joining?









P.S.

First things first

I hate to ruin your stoke but that is NOT how you measure a halibut, you're suppose to close the mouth and measure from the tail to the tip of the mouth with the mouth closed. A 40" halibut would weigh closer to 29lbs.

Good job bubba.........I knew you'd catch one before momofish

Lmao maybe my cheap amazon scale is crap but the tape says 40" thanks for the offer but I don't have the luxury to fish every weekend with you guys. We're a small pack romaing the underworld of fishing.... Caught too may croakers and lizards... But we picked up a few tricks here and there managed some nice fish that met the tortilla...

Thanks for the lesson on measuring the butt Jorge I'll donit right next time maybe it was 39"... Either way I got more meat than I can eat

HEY! I wanna ruin Jaime's stoke TOO!!!
 

No pics didn't happen!

21+13...doesn't equal 36! Dammit!!

Man I'm druunk!!! I can't ad now???? One was 21lbs the other was like 13 lol http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07...618fc9036f.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07...45df00537d.jpg

12.8 is not 13

Wait a minute. .........did that 21pounder get measured with the clip?

You trying to pull a fast one on us?














BANNED! !!!!!


Your team sewer application has been revoked

I zeroed the weight after the clip should of got a vid of it now lol

Thanks!!.. I personally like halibut meat over yt too..but I like the yt fight way better those suckers will not go down til they pass out. But all my yt have been on cattle boats. Still waiting for the kayak one that matters

shoulda
woulda
coulda






But didn't

Thanks Nick! We need to fish man u got the fish mojo going on!! And thanks to everyone else today was really a good day for those tasty butts! I know o could of got aonther one but just went home I had only one game clip had to carry the other one on the gaff and jaw plier I think it's called lol

I lost A TON of fish at cabrillo before and nrwport too and one thing i realized after I lost a beast halibut last week... When I hook up I get excited... And when I get excited I do stupid things like thumb he spool.... DO NOT THUMB THE SPOOL!!!..I had to remind myself today not to do that and went home happy with not the same story of "I lost a big one"

Weighed with the clip.....??? :confused:


That's a new low jaime....for shame! :eek:

Lol fu guys!!!! Is 40" that good??? What's your pb??? Did I beat it???? I know I saw a vid on Jorge's youtube channel of a monster I'll look for it

https://youtu.be/-eX8QtSxCLU
I'm not sure about that Jorge..... Looks like same as mine
... And it was only 21lbs..... Pics or didn't happen

Cell128,

I'm so jealous!! It's been a while since I've targeted halibut.
Now you've got me thinkin'....

Nice work!

My personal best out of cabrillo wasn't that big































45lbs

Learning what not to do has made me a much better fisherman. Now if I can just learn what to do! Nice pair. Generally, the length of that size fish with the mouth closed is going to be about 1/4" to 1/2" longer than the front of the top lip. When you get into the really big ones, they can have a big lower lip protrusion.

Holy crappp!!! You got the tittle for sure on that one

Nice Job Jaime! You definitely got some secrets for the halibut! I still couldn't believe it when I saw you hook up 2 short halibut in less than 5 minutes in Newport Harbor. We'll get some yellows this summer, don't you worry. We just need to follow Nick around, lol!!!

Thanks for OTW updates throughout the morning, good stuff!!

Thanks Kevin! Hopefully we can get some Saturday!

What a Beauty! That is an Alaska sized Butt right there!!! Congrats

For sure! But Jesse said he caught those fish and you took credit! :eek: I guess we'll need to set up an octogon at the coast guard station and let you two duke it out! LmaoAttachment 16171

Lmao!!

Jaime,

What Jorge and Tony are trying to say is that they are impressed with your catches and stoked for you.

Sometimes they have difficulty expressing their true feelings. :D




Nice catch.




P.s. I know for a fact that a 38.5 inch halibut can weigh 19 pounds or 27 pounds. They vary a lot.



:cheers1:











Get rid of your little scale...get a good bathroom scale.....the guys will love that!

Holy Crap!
 

Funny shit there Kevin. What makes that image funnier is how bad the editing. I can't wait to hear Jesse chime in.

Nice Butts!

Lol. A lot of my thanks goes to Cadillyak and all the time weve put it on the water. Putting in time is everything. Along with the constant good vibes. Luck never hurt nobody' ether. :)

I still gotta get me my tuna off the yak. Been getting them off PB's and off a cattle boat recently.

Thanks guys... Soo.... I was watching my poor video skills... My wife sees me beating the hell out of those halibut like they owed me money... She starts freaking out says wtf wrong with me beating up that fish... I say u wanna see a video how they make big macs? Lmao

Nice halibuts, WTG!
