2015 Fishin Pictures - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

fishja · 01-04-2016, 07:01 PM

I quit my full time job in June so after that I pretty much fished the jewel everyday... More yellows than I could count with one 12 fish day (released 8)!

My buddies first time on a yak!

Caught a bft on my yak solo out 3 miles.

Shot my PB wsb at 71.3 pounds.

My girl caught some pigs.

My family caught some fish.

Little bro.

Little sis.

What a great year!

I think everyones 2015 was insane!!! Here's a few selects from my 2015.

Started the season with some of those early bluefin (this was my most memorable day for some reason):

Then went ahead and had a lot of nice days on the yak catching some

I also released about 90% of the yellowtail I had caught this summer:

Then my dad started letting me use his boat more, so we found these:

Can't forget about the insane surface iron days just outside the harbor. Launch at 7, tired and done by 9 haha.

Then the yellows went deep so we did some yoyo bending in the cold all by ourselves (these are 35mm Shots), don't know where all the people went??

And now I just started 2016 with this catch-and-release yellowtail away from the crowds pictured here. Looks like 2016 may be just as good with all the red crab and fish out there right now!

Nothing too exciting but lots of YT. Took the girl out one evening to show her what the hell I do all the time. Watching her scream and panic and bring in a mean YT was probably the highlight of the season for me though. I think it was the first fish shes ever caught. I tried to explain how cool of a first catch it was but I'm not sure she understands...

Been off of the grid for a while as I sold my old kayak and am saving for a newer and better one (hobie

), but still have some pretty memorable days at LJ to look back and can't wait for this year to roll around!
