First Time
Lots of first for me over the weekend at LJ. First time I could not make any bait at the pier before light. First time heading off shore from LJ in search of some more elusive pelagics. First time pairing my Avet SX with one of my GLoomis rods. First time I have fished 20# leader exclusively (that I can remember). First time I have paddled 40 or more miles in one weekend (all of it awake anyway). First Bluefin Tuna. First weekend I have not taken out my downrigger camera. First weekend I have drained my FF battery. First time I have taken frozen water bottles out in a soft-sided cooler for a purpose other than drinking. First time I have taken a drybag out for something other than keeping things dry inside it. First and second time going off-shore with only Spanish. And first time seeing as many people land with fish as without at La Jolla. Some of the firsts proved to be much more entertaining than the others.

10000th time Greg catches a trophy on baby gear!

Congrats Greg!

Great catch Greg. I see only one problem, no PFD. Shame on you.

Its hard not to when you put in so much effort and it finally pays off. Nice video Greg!

Tony was he calling you in on the radio, or just rubbing it in and telling you it was wide open? (;

Way to get it done Greg. Good lord that's a lot of paddling for a week end. Go ahead and take a few days off and go back to work and rest up.

That is awesome Greg! I can't believe you paddled that much over the weekend. I'm not fishing enough to stay in shape to paddle that kind of distance. I need to work less and fish more like I did last summer, I was fishing 2 to 3 times a week. I love your videos because they are well edited to show the important things while not being too long. Thanks for sharing Greg.

you're fishing for tuna with 20#? That story usually does not end well unless your name is GregAndrew.

caden... that's some avitar!

very cool. Would be neat to see your innovation to film the fly lined nose-hooked macked getting whacked by a tuna.

go pro on a kite, drone?
