Yes I take 3 rods with me. My sibiki rod, the 12 lb. for fishing calico's & a 20 lb for the yellows.
I already had the light rig ready to go so I just pinned one on it and sent it out and then was going to rig the 20 lb later. I just didn't get to that point yet.

@Dirty Curti: Well done & congrats on the first yellow - awesome catch!!!
I surf the area a lot and there always seems to be a swell. Where did you launch from...the jetties? How was the takeoff/landing?
Thanks and congrat's again!!!

Launched between the jetties in front of the lifeguard tower. I waited for about 15 minutes for the right time and charged it. Crashed through a couple of small breakers and got a little wet but charged on with no problem. Had to land about 25 yards south of the jetties because it was a little calmer there at the time I landed. Waited for the right time and caught a small breaker for the ride in. It all worked out for me...this time!
Since it was my first video I will have to work on my editing abilities and add music. I hope I continue to get that opportunity.
