That was one monster of a kelp ball. But your persistence paid off. Great catch.

Nice Yellowtail Gabe. It brings back memories of when we had all that nice bull kelp that made the great environment to have it be much easier to always expect to hook up. Thanks for sharing.

Not everything, or the fish would have gotten away. Nice one, Congrats!

Thanks for sharing that video!
