My First Yellow comes on the plug!

My First Yellow comes on the plug!

I had tried for about a year to get yellow with no luck. I have been in situations with boiling yellows before and completely choked. I have dragged baits for days with nothing. My wife was sick of me not coming home with fish. Starting to question if I was really going fishing....For our 1st year aniversary, knowing how addicted I am to the sport, she gave me a card with printed out picture of a DarkHorse. Haha!


On an outting with Josh I had several goes at nice fish but by my own faults I could not seal the deal. Once with Boiling fish at the surface (backlash) and a second fish hooked and taken deep into some kelp and rocks.


A few weeks later I was lucky enough to be put in a situation with Massive amouts of boiling yellows. Those types of situations don't give you much time so being ready is key and Josh certianly gave me the skills and coaching of being ready.


On this day you could definately feel the magic in the Air. Only a couple people out and as one bwe member always puts it "Looks like one of those big fish with la jolla in the background days". I also had some other luck that day. My buddy canceld on me to go golf. Everytime that happens I seem to land a fish that day.


I now understand the feeling that Kevin Describes in his Surface Iron post. Its am amazing experience. Shes not huge but shes massive in my eyes. Sharon thanks again for the beer and Jer thanks for the assist that day.

My apologies in advance for all the product placement in this photo.

SO STOKED YOU GOT THOSE FISH MAN!!!!!!!!!!

That was the one day I passed on and I kept telling Jer how stoked I was you got a couple pigs.......

Couldnt have happened to a nicer dude well done man........

It's probably safe to assume your wife is sick of yellowtail by now.....
Hopefully she doesnt start saying stuff like "Hey babe when are you gonna be bringing some of that white seabass home like spring" like I hear almost every outing.....


WELL DONE DUDE STILL SUPER STOKED FOR YOU AND ON THE JIG!!!!!!!!!!:luxhel lo:
