First YT from the yak! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Silbaugh4liberty · 11-23-2014, 07:45 PM

First drop, three cranks and BAM! Fish on with the white tady 4/0, 10 minutes later, get him to color! We were at about 165 ft deep, so I was surprised he came up that fast, thought it was going to be a longer fight. Steve gaffed him for me and helped me stow it in the gator hatch, and got a few otw pics! Thanks for your help Steve, it's your turn next! (We gotta go get some stripers at the lake sometime!)

Went 26.8lbs, 39 inches at the fork!

Congratulations on the first Kayak Yellow. They always taste better than any Yellow Tail you've had before. Enjoy!

Awesome man, congrats.

See, no need to make a day of it. Just paddle out, catch a fish, and paddle back in.
Congratulations!

Nice fish! Where is that, San Clemente island? (;

What was in the stomach, did you look? Most likely nothing judging by how she inhaled that jig...

Pink slime or grey slime?
