Thanks for the call in on that fish kurt. That is an area where I have picked up a few smaller yt. I had 4 for sure yt hookups today. Pulled a hook at color while getting the gaff out, one on the iron came unbuttoned at color, had one come unbuttoned before I saw it, but it felt right, and the one I landed. I got this guy on my low rig at about 1 pm.
17# model, fought really tough, got me into the submerged kelp. Really fat for his size. Also landed about half a dozen bones, half a dozen calis and a few cudas, all on bait. The yt bite seemed to be a slow pick all day. I also heard some rumors of 30+# yt being landed. Once again it took lots of bait to get through the day. Every bait that got soaked got hit by something. I also had a cuda hit a mac on a sabiki. Hopefully I can get some action shots of this one soon.
