Awesome catch! I have fished that area many times and have seen them that close several times. Have you tried slabs of Humbolt Squid? If you are still down there, go to the La Comer or any big super market and you can pick it up for cheap. Use a big chunk (like 2"x3") to keep the triggerfish away. Toss it out with some smaller chucks of chum; use mono so it sinks.
That area is a different fishery. The fish there seem to like meat; even the smaller ones. Nice AJ too! I caught on about that size on a panga and it killed me. Mans-game doing in on the yak! |

Thanks for the good tip. I was hoping someone on this board had experience fishing that area. I've tried squid in the past but never such a big chunk. Hopefully that will discourage the little guys from stealing my bait. I'll try it next time we are down there.

Great catch! Sounds like that spot is panning out with the addition of your Hobie kayak.
