LJ 2/15 Found my birthday present...
 

http://www.bigwatersedge.com/images/...Dennis6_2_.JPG

Launched with Ryan at 0600, after Dan. Hightide, 2-4' thumpers, stiff offshore wind, water temp 57, water vis 15'. Paddled to the kelp and looked for bait. Nothing, so we tossed iron. The wind later died and it started looking promising. Birds, cudas, and bait came through thick... Picked up a lot of logs, and a ling. Towards the end of the session, one more cast... Drop, crank, and ZZZZZZ... 36lbs, Salas 6xjr B&W, on the retrieve. Thanks for the otw shot, Dan. And, Ryan for the assist.

I know, Cris... You didn't have to tell everyone... LOL.
Actually, my birthday was on the 9th. It just took me a while to find my present at La Jolla. I got lucky with the knot. Ryan and I tested it on the beach, and it popped.

Amazing. Great job.
