It Isn't Kayak Fishing...It's Just The Latter
Just went west, about 7 miles out and started the chum line. My buddy forgot the "other" big game rod/reel. So I took that as an exigent circumstance to use my CalStar 800M/Seagate 50 and tie on the leader to 65lb braid. NO SHIT, with in 5 minutes of droping down I was on....click-zzzzzzzzz ![]() ![]() Caught my first and last Mako of the year. It was non-stop action for 3 and 1/2 hours. 2 released, 2 kept. Mine was 58 inches long at the fork...I didn't get tape on the girth. But, I estimate it less than 83lb, more than 70lb. Last edited by Devildawgjj; 07-08-2012 at 07:12 PM. |

Did you really shotgun blast that thing to the head? Is that legal? Just curious cause I wouldn't know how to handle that thing either! Anyways Congrats on filling the freezer bro I can't wait to get one myself I've never tried Mako.

From what I read/heard is it not. I'm not one for breaking the law, but I'll take my chances with DFG, LEO's, etc., when shooting at one; when it's 01:00 in the morning and pitch black, common sense dictates. To All: Thanks for praise!! I still would land one from a yak, no bigger than this though... ![]() |

For safetys sake I wouldnt hesitate with a shot to the head. Ive seen
those things go nuts when you bring them out of the water. They have a very nice set of choppers on them. Lotsa good bar'b'queing ahead. |

![]() We're willing to trade white sea bass and thresher steaks ![]() Congrats, one is all you need for the year. We wish they were safe to take from the kayak. Maybe if we brought along a shotgun ![]() BTW, did those mackerel glow that you caught at the plant?
