The double
 

Ok, since everyone else is posting up I'll join in the fun and show off a little. Thursday was the fishiest day I've ever encountered at LJ. The water was warm, there was no wind, bait was popping and everything alive was on the chew. I knew it would be a good day when I was even catching Calico's on my sabiki.

Got my WSB pretty early on. I've never stuck one that small before but I had relatives coming into town over the weekend and it was time to secure dinner. Came in at a scrappy 34 pounds.

Now came the decision, get the fish on ice or keep fishing for YT. I told myself I'd just spend a little time looking.

Finally, it was time to head in before my WSB got cooked on the deck. On the troll back I hear this loud splash and see a brown blob half out of the water where my bait is and I'm thinking....damn dog. Brian (kayakhunter) quickly pointed out that it was a yellow. After a good tug of war I had a 24 lb. yellow secured.

Glad I stayed out. Only bummer was the fact that it was a day before WCW started. It sure would have been nice to have 68 points secured and only needing a 10 lb. + hali to get the 50 point slam bonus for the month.

The double down paid off! Nice job! Looks like I came in a little too early on Thursday.

Congrats! Good story, and thanks for the LJ orientation that morning. I went home with a WSB in the cooler Thursday too. (my first) What a great day out there.

That was an epic day.

Hey MuddyMike, big time congrats for a quality WSB on the first trip to LJ???? Who does that???

Don't give me too much credit for WCW. I got a little luck on my side right now, that can disappear as fast as it showed up. My main goal with WCW is to have a solid excuse for the wife as to why I need to fish so much. I'll just tell her that one more fish will put me in the $$$$. ;)

Solid work Eric!!

NIce fish!!!

Way to get er done!!
