Checkout my new seat!!!!!!!!!!
I wanted a new seat for the yak, and I saw on the Innovations thread where someone used one of the Bass Pro shop boat seats. Well i just happened to have a $25 giftt card. So I went to Bass Pro yesterday and picked one up. Then spent half the night last night rigging it up.
Which brings me to the test drive today seat works great, and A Halibut was hungry. The picking was very slow today in Dana Point talked with several guys out on the water and they were having a hard time finding the fish. I got to the boat ramp around 7 and managed one 15 in kelp bass by noon. So I called the wife to telll her I was coming home. She was shopping so i decided to stay out for a little longer. As soon as i hung up with her i dropped a Sardine to the bottom and before I could put the Rod in the rod holder my line took off. Once I started reeling in it felt like I was stuck on the bottom again. Then came the head shakes. Got her to the side of the yak and realized my gaff, net, and fish grippers were still stowed away. Once i finally got the Gaff out I couldn't figure out were to sink it so i just hooked him in the mouth. THIS WAS A BAD IDEA!!! He went balistic then back to the bottom. When I finally got him back to the surface I gaffed him and in the yak he came. 36.5 inches 17.5 # This is a personal best for halibut and any fish Saltwater or Freshwater. so needles to say just finished eating so Halibut steak.
