La Jolla 8/29

[jorluivil]

Launch time: dark thirty something

Bait: Greens and Spaniards

First hook up: Cuda just shy of 40 inches

Second hook up: medium size Bonita

Third hook up: another Cuda

Forth hook up: YT on the surface. While fighting this fish my other rig which was on the bottom goes off. I land the first fish, grab the second rod and fish is still hooked. Two yellows back to back in less than 5minutes

Fish lost: 50 pound halibut, 43 pound white seabass, 48 pound yellowtail. I didn't see the fish, my guesses are based on how the fish hit and fought

Nice, maybe we should start reporting our shark sightings daily and keep it that way!

Just keep bleeding your fish on the way in and we will have the launch to ourselves

If they think the Kayak fisherman are causing the sharks to come in shallow they will close the launch ramp to fisherman.
We need to keep this low key, and if your gonna bleed and gut your fish you should do it outside so this issue doesn't escalate into a closure.

It only takes one instance to create concern and unfortunately sharks have a stigma. I mean we don't close the mountains when we see an elk or moose. I know they are different, but we are in their space. I think the big thing to take away from this is education for new people. Don't chum on the inside. Bleed and gut your catches outside away from any swimmers.

Me thinks you take things too serious

With respect to the swimmers, as well as our future, it would be prudent for all of us to bleed and clean any fish outside the preserve buoy. That's only common sense and courtesy. Fatten up those lobsters!!

100% Agree - I think it is wise to clean your fish far outside and don't mention shark sightings. We need to stay under the radar and portray the most positive image possible.

The Anti Fishing & Hunting folks are well organized, have plenty of money and would easily gain enough public support to close the launch ramp.

Besides fishing, I have been hunting in SD for 20+ years. I have watched the Anti's successfully close almost all target shooting areas, close massive amounts of public land to hunting, remove LEAD from ALL hunting by 2019 and now have gotten new legislation going to manage coyote/varmint hunting.

None of these things may be of interest to some or most, but they are clear examples of how the Anti's can stop activities if they want to. The Anti's are very good at quickly building a case and ramming it thru the system.

Here are 3 points I recall they used to close the target shooting areas;

1. Claiming stray-bullets were *flying everywhere*, resulting in a possible public safety risk.
2. Showing pictures of all the trash left behind by shooters, resulting in a threat to local wildlife and public health.
3. Showing pictures of shot-up local street signs.

The Anti's don't like fishing and hunting and will try to stop it any way possible.
