La Jolla 8-22 late report

I have a freind thats new to the sport and I was telling him to spend a few bucks and go out with Josh and learn how to fish from someone that knows what he is doing instead of going with me and hoping we run into fish. After introducing them i talked to Josh about sight fishing for yellows. Sight fishing??? I booked him the next day.

I arrived at the launch at 5:45 to see the squid floatilla and kayaks coming in with some nice WSB. I'm thinking to myself with a full moon and the squid bite this would end in skunk if i was going out by myself.

Josh showed up at 6 and wondered out loud what the hell we were doing here at this hour. He said we would look around for a couple hours because we will see the fish after noon.

He called his shot. While making bait just after noon we saw a yellow chasing makerel out of the water. I was not prepared and my cast was late. We keep working the area and have a bait in the water and Josh is statnding on his PA spotting fish. Nest thing i know he yells cast off to 11 oclock. He cast and I manage to cast right over his as he hooks up. I turn to the right to untangle and he hands me his 100J with the fish on. Now I'm not a hook and hand kind of guy, but i always wanted to try this rod. I'm bringing this fish in and the gaff is between my legs and I think I have everything in contol when Josh ask what do you have going on? Turns out my bait rod in the holder has a fish on and is wrapped aroud my other rods. Josh swooped in and grabbed the bait rod and I'm thinking cool he will take care of that one. He got it untangled and put it back in the my rod holder! Now I have the fish on his jig stick gaffed and he says put on the clicker, put it in free spool and he swings in and grabs fish and rod and I'm on to the onther fish. That non comes to the yak easy and the skunk is off. I farmed another one shortly after(bummer because i always wanted to release 1) and saw more yellows in the water in 1 day than i have in the 4 or 5 years I've fished La Jolla.

Thanks for a great dayName:  June.July.August.2010 120.jpg
