Central Coast Slam Down / Leffingwell
Recently finished the Central Coast Slam and had a blast. Caught a lot of bottom fish and I am pretty sure a personal best cabezon. I also lost a 33”+ halibut off the yak. Had 3 great days of fishing! I saw a lot of Lingcod caught, just none by me.
Post tournament some monster fish were caught south of moonstone beach near Santa Rosa. Even recently there have been some monster perch from the surf caught! Check out my review of Central Coast Slam at: https://beachestobackroads.com/2018/...tslamdown2018/ And a video of my fishing adventure at: https://youtu.be/envK61rCqWs Leave comments and let me know what you think. Tights lines guys!

Rollin!
Thanks for watching!
This trip I tried some different tactics. I got bit by what I am sure was a "large" White Sea Bass. I was taking a break from jigging with those 6oz lead heads and an octopus skirt, with my gear 5-10' below the boat, and my reel started smoking! Snap, my 30lb fluorocarbon was broken instantly. Talking to some free divers they told me their have been large WSB in the area! It was a blast! The Cabezon made the trip. The halibut would have been amazing too! Got a few more trips planned soon......

Absolutely my favorite kayak tournament of the year! Once again I had a blast fishing Leffingwell and caught my first Lingcod off a kayak this year. It was nice seeing the healthy kelp beds, I took the opportunity to harvest a bunch and made spicy jalapeño pickled kelp when I got home.

I will be bringing it to Mako-ville! My pickled kelp is always a hit when I make it. I have several friends that have standing orders whenever I can find quality kelp. This batch used bread & butter (sweet) pickle mix, and one seeded and sliced jalapeño per quart jar. Supposed to wait 3-4 weeks before opening for the pickling to finish, so will be trying them for the first time later in the week.
