Dont keep your reel in gear... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Big kudos to you, Casey, for the release

Well done on the recovery, too.

I know what you mean by the sandwich trick. My fish in January was a sandwich trick and my fish a week ago was a drink trick. I think it has to do with reverse psychology or something...make the fish think you are distracted.

Snapped a quick picture, took out the hook, and sent her back over the side. The new reel worked awesome! Now that i had my fish, i was good for the morning so i paddled around and watched some others hang a few yellows. Headed in early to get to work on time again!

Before this trip on tuesday Casey was almost convinced he had some kind of Yellowtail curse. I hope catching three Yellowtail over thirty pounds on three consecutive trips helped make up for lost opportunities.

I couldn't be more proud of you for releasing that trophy to fight another day, more people should give that feeling a try. I love the calm look in that Yellowtail's face, I think she knew you had good intentions. It doesn't get much better than watching a trophy fish swim off, that was caught on a new reel's maiden voyage, and still making it to work on time.
