I have been going with just the suit for the last 2 weeks. No booties either! Don't forget your sunscreen!

:lol: Ur smirk from after I farmed that 1 last night popped into my head right b4 I swung :lol:

Shorts will be fine if you've got a dry ride

Dan · 05-17-2006, 09:32 PM

Nice Ryan. NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aaron&Julie · 05-17-2006, 09:36 PM

Persistance paid off. Way to go Ryan.

blackcloud9 · 05-17-2006, 10:09 PM

Great job Ryan, glad you got a nice one. They sure like to play with baits.

I fished from 6 - 7:45pm tonight for one bite which I missed.

Iceman · 05-17-2006, 10:23 PM

Nice one Mcfly.

I had a whole lot of nothing touch my bait all the way in to Heartbreak Hotel as Trout called La Valencia. I had made a bunch of 7-8 inch macs and then later one big fat one over 12 inches. I kept the big one long and changed out the smaller ones every once in a while. Paddling in around 7:30ish, I wanted to try a setting on the camera, so I snapped a pic of Dennis as he paddled in front of La Velencia with the lights all on, turned out like crap. Before I started up again the big bait starts going off, let it run quite awhile and fish on! Made a nice run and plowed into the kelp. Popped it out and it kept circling trying to get back down, was making some headway and pop. Reeled in about 10 feet of line and my hook, if it was lighter out I am sure I would have seen color. As I was putting the rod away I noticed that I did not pull the hook, the hook had broke :x

Fish felt real heavy, I am gonna guess 56 pounds or more :lol:

Ryan The Sealion · 05-17-2006, 10:30 PM

^1st circle hooks, now detachable 1's..? comeon ice.. nothin but gorillas :twisted:

I really thought that fish was gonna go over 40...some diver on the beach estimated it at 25 for me :roll: :lol:

Tuesdays play by play..........after watching Aaron’s hit and run I really wanted to pull on one.

I was paddling near Ryan and I notice his rod tip doing the nervous bait/pre-hit dance.

So I tell him "Dude I think your getting bit" and he replies "Naw, I just gotta a big bait" and gives me that I know what I'm doing look. :roll:

Then the clicker goes off and he swings harder then Bobby Bonds on steroids.

Then he lets off a tirade "@%$#@%&**^%$#" of damnation.

ops:

ops:

Ryan good to see you find redemption!

Iceman, go OWNER or go home.

I know there are big fish and killer fisherman out there! :shock:

No complacency here, see the PM crew this afternoon.

I'm actually praying for Holy Mackerel to get one, he has a bad case of WSB blue balls.

He's like 300 hours in with nada......go Chris!

MKNOTT · 05-18-2006, 08:45 AM

Chris is gonna get laid tonight!!!

DaveC · 05-18-2006, 09:08 AM

Ryan nice job on the white. As Ken said, redemption. Andy, bummer on the hook malfunction. Someone is going to pull a 56 plus out of there before the end of May. Hope its me. :twisted:

:lol: :lol: Yeah yeah that mack was like 12" and had been taken my clicker out all evening...but u sure did call it

I still can't believe I said "this is a big bait" to myself right b4, and didn't give him time to eat it :x

^to be honest tho, this was my 1st c-bass caught on a mack..I didn't know they grab it sidewayz like a damn cuda and run with it for a while..figured with the size of their mouth they'd enhail it..learn somethin every day :lol:

Dennis · 05-18-2006, 10:30 AM

NICE RYAN! I'm still trying to shake off that jinx you put on my kayak with that DAMN BANANA.

.
I got picked up in front of the Hotel @ about 7 pm. Short bite, with a crushed head and teeth marks. She didn't want to come back for more, I guess.

Chris, better get laid tonight. 11th consecutive outing? That's okay. I'm still looking for my fish this year....

I guess I should have followed you in, Andy
