Had one of those feelings in my gut telling me to fish today after work. Launched locally in some sketchy 3-4ft surf. Timed it almost right and ended up getting soaked on the first wave of a set. Lost my hat. Damn. Hauled ass to the local kelp with only a few hours of light left, got some greenbacks, threw one out and 10 minutes later I got hooked up. The local sportboat gave me words of encouragement as it pulled away, ended up getting it to the boat shortly after. Quick photo, then released. After so much time spent at this spot, and so many missed opportunities .... it felt damn nice to finally pull one up. The bait was really weird today and didn't want to swim so I just called it a day and headed in. On my way in I found my hat floating in the surfline ... great afternoon!
