While I had hoped you would wait a week or so to share your success with the world---ya' know,in an effort to protect the resource---I'm beginning to realize you're not one to disappoint me. Might I suggest a compromise of two weeks on fish reports---at least that's what I do these days. Waiting three weeks is ridiculous!
It's not that often when I scream "stop paddling and cast", that the guy has a jig-stick and knows what to do with it. James made a perfect cast, followed by short work on that fish---well done!
Your determination to pull a monster out of the kelp was long overdue, James. I'm just glad I could be a small part of helping you achieve your goals---love my job!
