Action shots ONLY - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Post em up! Bendo shots are good, but nothing better than catching some action. No posing!

bellcon · 12-05-2011, 02:29 PM

Any one have that "action" shot of Grego landing at LJ?

"CHARLIE DON'T SURF!"

Another baja classic.

Does video count? Cause I have some great video of some fool launching into some nasty whitewater.

Greg,

Ericko on the yak. We were determined to get through those waves.......and we did!!

Obviously, the guy pointing the happy finger got skunked that day

Here's one of Adi from '07 trying to figure out
how to bass fish mission bay. Don't forget Adi,
you've got to hold the fishing pole--just in case...

Here's a couple of me with a 12' plus T. The fight was
unreal, the steaks tasty, and the memory, totally embedded.

Sammons caught one the same size a few years back. He was lucky enough to
have a private boat bring it to shore, since there's no way to paddle back
with one this size. His weighed 175lbs.

The T is resting on my rails while my legs are spread just for balance.
Without the help of my buddies the OTW shot was impossible. Right after
the shot, the fish was butchered.

You can get down south and catch a big one with me in Baja for a lot less than 5K!

After losing a nice Butt type puller the week before in some 2-3' surf conditions, I figure 3-5' can't be that much worse right? Unfortunately I failed to check the interval (along with a slew of other things I forgot to do). The surf was not that bad by itself (until I returned later in the afternoon), but the short intervals made for a long gauntlet. The video you are about to see is performed by an untrained nonprofessional, don't try this at home. The duration of the onslaught was about 40 minutes total.

Greg,

I don't know what hurts more. Actually i do, the money lost...

Been there but not to that extent.

That was incredible footage, reminds me of my wipeout the first few months i started kayaking. And everytime i launch i do the prelaunch check list.

I have been there waayyy tooo many times.... You are right, with "familiarity breeds contempt".

Amazing Video, thanks for sharing.

brutal just brutal
