Great fish! What were you using? Live bait?

I was using live mackerel, targeting halibut.

Closer to point Loma. Long haul there and back, and uphill against the tide both ways in the bay. Glad I have an Outback, and hope the mirage drive doesn't break. I don't know if I could paddle that far, especially after fighting that fish.

you may want to keep a wrench and extras a dry bag. Hobie makes a killer product, but stuff breaks over time, so far: 1 drive chain and 1 mast while on the water. Replaced the drive chain OTW. Had to limp in on the broken fin while hooping and that was no big deal.
