Mikeys' First... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

kayakfisherman · 01-14-2015, 09:16 AM

Went out last weekend. Met up with Chris and Mikey.
On the beach, I ran into a Hand Surgeon named Brian.
We met a few years back, and kept each other company.
While Mikey brought home the bacon...

Congratulation on a really nice fish Mikey, just spent 8+ hours there yesterday but did not have the same luck. Great video Yani and Mikey you even had a professional photographer take your on the water photo (Chris) even though it was with an IPhone.

Mikey likes it! For sure he is a happy guy. I love the enthusiasm with that catch. You can tell it was all worth it.

Nicely done!

You will have to pry that paddle from his cold dead hand!

How cool to get your first yellowtail on video!!

Mikey Likes It · 01-14-2015, 06:45 PM

Thanks for posting the awesome video Yani and the epic photo Chris.

Not my first yellowtail but my first yellowtail on the iron. I'll never forget the feeling of reeling up as fast as I could and then all the sudden the reel stops and line starts ripping the other direction.

Just as Yani said in the video the fish was devoured by friends, family and coworkers multiple sushi parties over the weekend. My favorite is to do a buffet style of hand rolls and I'm working on my nigiri skills. It's hard to beat fresh yellowtail sushi.

Tuff guy · 01-14-2015, 06:54 PM

Damn, nice fish, and the sushi looks great as well. Nice work

Silbaugh4liberty · 01-14-2015, 06:54 PM

Nice job Mikey! I saw you in the sewer a few months back I think, but I think you were on a red kayak if I'm not mistaken. I was with Joe and his friend.

Way to get him on the iron!

Love that song, brings back memories!!

Whoop, there it is------》

roby · 01-14-2015, 08:21 PM

Nice catch Mikey!

I love the enthusiasm - that's what it's all about!!
