Buri - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

dmrides · 11-12-2011, 08:00 PM

Armed with the latest knowledge of Sushi names for YT (thanks Moyer) I headed out to the Jewel in search of the right kind. I found some candy out there and drifted it around for a while. The morning was kind of slow, so I turned on the tunes, Zappa playing Heavy Duty Judy and started working my way towards the lobster buoys. Suddenly, I found myself playing tug of war with a Heavy Duty Judy of my own. Lucky for me and bad for her, she ran out to sea away from the buoys and the kelp. Which was a good thing too since the anti-reverse on my reel was kind of lacking the anti part. Eventually, all 42lbs of Judy ended up losing the tug of war and Buri was had by many.

nicely done .

That fish took you on a nice, long sleigh ride. It looked like you couldn't even raise your rod tip more than a few degrees above the horizontal. Kudos for hanging on to that beast.

And nice meeting you yesterday.

That fish has nice skin. She must have avoided trouble when she was young.
