Ghost Bustin - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

joyjiggin' · 03-08-2010, 09:59 AM

Since some are putting their recent personal best up, I guess I should too. Went out the other day to wet a line and see if one of those old ghost would swim my way. Got to the launch at about 5:30. While un loading I noticed I had forgot my F/F. I thought well it really doesn’t matter, I know the depth around there and it doesn’t matter if there is a big bait ball under you or not, just keep a line in the water most of the time and you’ll be alright. Had a greenie hooked on a Carolina down deep. Around 9:30 I bring up a huge BSB. Get her back down safe and sound. Around 10:00 I hook on a big ass leopard, get it in and off. Its 10:30 and I’m eaten the yummy sandwich I made Eric make for me, bout that time my greenie starts acting a little nervous. A few short zings, a long one then hook set. She gets me in some kelp a couple of times, but the braid does it’s job. Get her up to color and I say “holy shit”. Weight= heavy, Length=long. ..Thanks for the pics Leo and Wade…Oh...I barrowed Eric's Hobie..lolffice

congrats!!!!!
it's a nice one!!!

joyjiggin' · 03-08-2010, 09:18 PM

OK, guys! That is NOT me with the

in the photo!

Eric caught the fish, but he was not going to post it! Jokingly, I told him to photo shop my face over his and post it here. He went to town!!

When I saw it , I had a good laugh until I saw all the responses to it! I had NO idea that it could fool anyone. I don't know any woman with muscles like that

!!
However, frankly, if I had been there to witness that momentous event I know that I would have bagged that hog!

(PS Grego, your pic, er, I can see Eric's attraction to you now!)

Iceman · 03-08-2010, 09:28 PM

Fooled me!! but since that's the case....I reserve the right to retract my comment and modify it with the following:

About time you caught something worth taking a photo with...can't you do any better?.....slut!

erinoo · 03-10-2010, 05:55 PM
