Reading your story on the fights, I was saying to myself. Mud Marlin, Muddy Marlin!

Bring the 50# mono dropper loop and some frozen squid and see how quick you can horse one up.

FullFlavor there is some joy to having a fish pull your yak around the Bay. Some of our fellow takers were looking at me like WTF.

My guess is if there were hundred, if not thousand, that it might be mating time in Southern California. So I Googled it and here's what came up..............
Bat rays reproduce on an annual cycle, usually copulating during the spring or summer of one year and then giving birth the following spring or summer. The male chooses his mate by following close behind her and assessing her reproductive condition by smelling her chemical signals.
