Great time on the water, conditions out there were like glass. Tom referred to it as "Lake La Jolla". Easy launch, stayed dry and then I caught a nice wave on the return and rolled. Fun times! Caught the yellow on live mack and with the help of the Great Gaffster Tom who gaffed it and loaded the YT onto my yak. Thanks Tom! Can't wait to get out there and try again. Ok, maybe in 2 weeks... once I recover from this trip! Posting pics below: |

Congrats to both and welcome to BWE! One of my first kayak trips ended with a tetanus shot as I stepped on a rusty nail

Awesome fish! In February I was walking down to the launch site to show my wife were we head out. We walked from the street and I went barefoot. The wife asked if I was going to wear my shoes and I replied, "Nope, I have feet of steel!" (Famous last words)
10 steps onto the sand I step on a bee! Next thing I know my ankle's the size of a softball and our day without the kids was cut short Maggie do you paddle a grey X Factor? I think I saw you out there and you said hi about 3 weeks ago. I have to say everyone out there has been really cool. Great community. |

Yes, that would have been me! I love going out there on my yak! It's both exciting and intimidating at the same time. Everyone I meet there is pretty nice too! It's fun to come in and share experiences with others out there doing the same thing. Say hi next time you see me out there! Be careful walking barefoot out there too! I had just removed my water shoes 2 minutes before stepping on the hooks! I know about those bee stings too! Am allergic myself! Take care and thanks for the messages all! Maggie |

Mag, my mom called me on the phone to give me the update on shore (mostly give me sh*t about not having caught anything and everyone else landed having whites and yellowslol ) and told me a lady in a grey x-factor had come in with a thresher; musta been you. Good going, you beat me to the yak yellow :-( Thats a toad WSB too!

I caught a thresher in my yak at La Jolla and Raffman was my gaffman for that fish too. Caught it straight out in front of the pier on a mack. Took me about 30 minutes to bring it in after taking me for a ride across the water. What a fun time that was! Scary AND exciting but very fun! We had a crowd of people on the beach taking pictures and asking questions. I hope to have some luck out there again! I need to learn more about my reel and setting the drag and need to work on my knot tying to get better at that so I don't lose a fish due to lack of experience. I'm hoping for a big white sea bass on my next trip like the one Raffman has in his picture! Good times! |
