Its super slow on BWE... not anymore!!
Went out today to a parking lot on the inside... decided I'd head off in my own direction, good decision!! Got this guy on a light set up( Lexa 300 diawa MH calico special), drag buttoned down could only slow this beast! 30 min later and a couple hundred yards, I finally got em in the boat!!

Personal Best 36lb 42" weighed by the DFG chick in the background. Haha

nice fish!
Congrats on the personal best Nick! Beautiful fish!
I came in a little after you. I was working the inside in the morning and then around the corner, then I decided to try for some rockfish... glad I got hit on the way there.



Cheers

That's a sweet catch, my brother and I were out there for a skunk. Did you hit this one on the flat fall? I think I heard you over the radio.

Congrats to both you guys. Saw a few others being brought in a few days ago, but a friend and me only got some short bites. Hoping it will be my turn on the next trip. It is good to see that the bait has come back in good numbers. Thanks for sharing.

It was a gift from one of the old school kayakers here on BWE, luckily I had it serviced with new drag and bearings.

Ummm...a real fisherman could've caught it without the service and new drags...

I'm pretty sure I loaned it and would now like it back...

Let's see...I gathered this on all of your social media:
You bagged it...
You bragged it...
You gutted it...
And you ate it all on the same day??????!!!!!
What The F Ever Nick-man!

I wish I could scratch a piece of your success Nick-man. Going out regularly...keeping your eyes and ears open...having quality gear for that moment...BOOM! Getting it done consistently.

I think Most refer to inside as inside the point or some would consider as far as inside of (The Half)

I've done a lot of research, time on water, nagging the old schoolers, to remotely tip the surface of the bounties they call the " Jewel ". I still got a ton of learning especially with species like halibut and the ever elusive WSB. One of these days when my two sons get bigger I'll head out with you aka, Mr. WSB!!
brother!!
