01/04 LJ Color Blind - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Zfish03 · 01-08-2014, 04:32 PM

I was looking for those big white or yellow things but all I found was this big black thing and a sore arm.
Bait -O-Plenty, mini macks and spanish. Easy launch and clear water. As I was retrieving my iron a huge mark appeared on my FF, look over just in time to see my pole set up with dropper loop and mini mac go bendo. Damn near flipped, I had the drag a tad too tight. With in a few minutes of the fish trying to get to the bottom and direction changes I suspected a BSB but enjoyed the fight and remained hopeful.
Not bad for my first fish of the year and first fish on my new go pro

That was an easy release.

My experience with them is that as soon as I take the hook out of the mouth they swim away, its like they know when It's time to go.

Thanks Iceman! I tried that a few times but no luck maybe its because I'm on a mac..
The first BSB I caught was even bigger and was difficult to get it revived, it was so heavy but once I was able to get it right side up and move around the fish was able to recover and shoot to the bottom. I was expecting the same with this one, and was hoping to get some better shots of it but it surprised me when I unhooked it lol

Its on a 3 foot pole mount in a rod holder on my live well. I think it was a 1080p setting
