If you delete the pictures of your yellowtail....I'll pretend I didn't see it...quickly now before somebody else sees!!! :eek:

I know, but it was my 1st ever, man. I didn't break any laws.

Congrats bro! Saw you out there today. Nice meeting you

Yeah you did! Your calico is clearly bigger than your tail! :eek:

OK, well if it makes you feel any better I lost my cool bamboo sunglasses landing. Lol

It helps a little bit....

But seriously....Congrats on your first! :luxhello:

They will only get bigger from now on...cause they can't get any smaller....;)

Thanks ful-rac

Good thing you kept that yellow cause that calico was gonna eat it.

Be careful, minimum size limit for pacific bonito is 24". I'm just saying... do you know the new legal revised size limit for calicos?

The cooler picture just looks awkward haha. Congrats

That is going to be 1 tasty taco

5 less than 24".

Nice calico, I got one like that yesterday. The yellow is legal but it looks like you robbed the cradle on that one.:eek:

Ha-ha, I Sashimi that guy right up for my appetizer.

14 for bass right?? And I didn't keep the bonito. And yes I did learn 5 under 24" is the limit.

Totally did, but I figure people like to eat baby back ribs right? Same thing just with fish, lol. :p


I'm sure he was very Mature for his age

right on!

I can't talk smack! I haven't got yt yet! Enjoy it! I don't fish to skunk so any fish thats legal is good enough for the pan for me :)
Edit: except for those baby reds... I need a fish descender to send them back down I really feel like a baby killer when I get them

Bonito make great YT bait.. Keep that in mind
