Second time out and you get a legal halibut, I'm envious. Good job.

A little bit of both! My first adventure I flipped my yak and didn't have my landing net secured properly and lost it. I'm originally from florida and we wrestle gators down there so ifelt comfortable trying to man handle a hali till I get a new net!

@pchen911 I'm biteing him back as we speak! Fresh halibut lunch!
@yakmedic thanks for the words! I'm super stoked right now. I've caught big fish from boats before on heavy gear but there is nothing like working a fish on light tackle. Looking forward to many more from my yak. I've got the bug! ![]() ![]() |
