5/30 LJ Frank the Tank - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Dan · 05-30-2006, 08:59 AM

Wake, drive, launch, pier, bait, paddle, baits out at grey. Greenie got slammed at around 7, and battled very heavy and steady for a solid 20 minutes! Had him at color and he flipped me the bird and took off for another 10 minutes! Had a double going towards the end of the fight, turns out to be a 5# bonito

Pegged da 50# handheld digi! Off to Dana for official Weight!!!

Stupid circle hooks INDEED!!

Alright Dan, spill it. What did she way? Was this the bottom of the ninth shot to knock Ken off the top spot?

Sweet Dan. The weather looked great this morning, glad you caught a fish to match it. I'm going to try to duck out of the office at 4:00.
