Day 1 on the yak!
 

Drew from OEX Oceanside put me in my first kayak the other day, a Tarpon 140 to be exact. It worked pretty well for me the next day. :cheers1: to Drew for the boat and the advice!

wow you first day out and you pull in a thresher? congrats man

Holy crap! If that's a sign of things that are coming your way you're gonna kill-em!

Nice catch!!

Awesome catch!! You da man!

good eats and the worlds easiest fish to clean...

T's make the best fish taco's on the block!

Thanks guys, whoever is the recipe master, fill me in on the art of tasty T-shark. BTW Shark taco's were next on the list. If anyone want's to know the best special sauce for fish taco's, it's 1/2 mayonnaise and 1/2 plain yogurt. Simple, and taste's amazing!

Nice! One of the few fish I like to eat cooked.

congrats again dude, you went from the shop to pacific coast bait tackle to get it weighed right?

I brought it in to get weighed, but their scale maxed out at 50lbs. I just ended up taking it to the harbor and using the antique looking hanging scale. 85lbs. The guy a the shop there got pissed off at me for "wanting to" weigh a fish because he thought I'd leave blood on the ground. I hadn't even pulled it out of my truck yet. What are scales for? looking pretty! "I cleaned it up"

Looks like you cut the fins off - did you?

Not that anyone wants to see cleaning pictures, but yes, I cut the fins off. Seemed like the best way to clean a shark!
