WCW SUBS FOR MATT - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

THE DARKHORSE · 08-27-2008, 12:23 PM

Moyer, who says talking dirty and fishing don't go together?

I would have to agree with Stevooo, that's one of the best kayak photos ever (shiny new kayak, matching dry top, shiny reels, glassy conditions, fixed hair, and a trophy in your lap). It captures the moment of a newly happily married man (that lost his wedding ring the day before), but went out to pick up his prize. I saw that fish, and it was one of the prettiest Yellowtail I ever saw (better display of colors in the "deck photo" up top), but the fact that Matt had styled his hair that morning made it all the better

Well Matt, it looks like marriage is agreeing with you. You look pretty spiffy in that picture. Now you're raising the bar for the rest of us grizzled veterans. Great catch and I like your new wheels.

Fish is an exact, and I do mean exact cookie cutter of my other fish!!! Frighteningly similar except for the fight, this dude took out almost the same amount of line but at the end of the fight decided to just hover beneath the kayak for the last 5 minutes absolutely wouldn't budge. Caught him on a flylined mack with 25lb flouro and a 1/0 gorilla hook!! Thanks for the on the water photo Michael and thanks to the fellas at OEX for getting me the certified weight of 31.9lbs the same exact weight as my other fish!!!!

Now I just gotta catch those damn other species!!!!

Very awesome yellow! Its pretty rewarding to catch one of those guys when there aren't many around! I had been way down south pulling on another kind, hence the late reply!!

39.9 lbs (weighed at OEX PT. LOMA in front of Brent and CJ) 52" long caught on a Tady 4/O Iron, the bottom pic is my digital which isn't as accurate as I had hoped

Matt, what a monster. Must have been fun pulling him in. Good weekend for several of you. Congratulations on a fine catch.
