Looking outside the box..... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

What if a fish caught a human and held them under water for a number of seconds to get a photo - I wonder how that would feel?

I kill fish.

When I catch the Blacks though, I release them in the water as quick as possible; no photo. Get them back down fast. Taking a fish out of the water has to be detrimental to its survival. I remember the first time I caught one, it took me 10 minutes to revive it, stressed me out I thought it was not going to make it. I think cutting the line once you know has lots of merit.

Nice job on the HALIS!

The best analogy I ever heard that makes a lot of sense is : "Make your dad run a marathon, and when he crosses the tape hold his head under water for a minute and see what happens".

Nice catch! Hey I know that beach, the water is crystal clear

... That is
truly pre-Darkhorse, old school Josh right there, well, minus a lingcod or
two, and sporting a blingy new ride. I remember you used to CARRY your
kayak down to the sand too. My back hurts just thinking about that.

Yep thinking outside the box will be most important, in time. I should
start.
