First cast on the megabait...
 

25# yellow. Snuck out for an afternoon session on the prowler with 2 poles, no bait tank. Launched from a secret spot... a few may recognize.;)

One of the coolest trips ever for me. I really like the video too. Love the song and the feel of the afternoon light.

now thats the real deal! bitchen!!!!!

Nice job, now get your feet in the boat.

nice job on the video and the catch

Super cool video!!!

I would like to figure out how to do that...plus nice job on the plastics!!!

A one hour trip is just long enough to get some fresh hamachi!!!

:yt:

Sweet!!:D

Dam. I wish I could paddle like that. Congrats on a Great catch n the stratigic strike. Did you see boilers or were you just blind casting? Mega baits are great jigs. You can fish the whole water column, fast or slow. They get bit just fluttering down too. And they cast better than about any other lure. Go to on windy days. Keep up the great work. Mike

On birds. Casted, retrieve like half way on the surface, then let it sink again. Hit on the drop. Honestly I think this is the first YT I've caught on one... But had good success offshore w them.

Awesome

Nicely done! I've always wondered about launching there ... how did the locals react to you paddling out there? It's a pretty mellow spot anyway

I don't recognize your secret spot. Where is it?

1 hour trip with a YT...Legit!

Surgical Strike--Boom! Nice fish!

Ol Scallywags super secret baby black seabass playground

Totally chill. High fives all around!

Right next to the halibut hotel!

Way cool Chris!! Love those solo sessions, especially afternoon ones.

Love the music. Where did you learn to speed paddle like that???:luxhello:

Haven't been there in a while, but if I am correct I used to live right up the street. If so that launch is in an MPA, is it much of a paddle to get out of it from there. Again I may not have the right location but pretty sure I do.

Jim,

I think your right. I used to fish off my noserider before that area closed. Really fun for fishing and surfing, but haven't fished that area since it closed.
I was wondering how long the paddle was past the prohibited area?

Yep classic old guy long board spot, if the surf was down we just paddled them out to fish.
