Another new member post/ Sewer report

[User name]

I have been lurking BWE for about 3 months and have been fishing from my yak for about 7 and finally caught a fish I feel is worth a post.

Got to the Sewer at 6am on Sunday and caught some bait in the kelp beds inside the break wall. Loaded up on small smelt (8-10) and headed out to deeper water. The lizard fish were out in full force and stole almost all of my bait. I set out my sabiki right on a school of mackerel and was able to fill my bait tank again. Took one of the mackerel from the sabiki to my main line and about 5 min later it got slammed. I still don’t have a gaff so I fumbled around trying to get my fishgrips set, and then landed my personal best Halibut at ~31”.
