Rig tying.... It all pays off.


I apologize if I came across dickish at first, four posts about la jolla monsters, all written the same way with the same picture and same "I paid a guy to get me on fish" got me a little buggered. All these reports get my heart racing and motivated to get on the water not knowing if I'll skunk out or reel in glory. THATS the sport. There is no sport in taking the shortcut.
Just because you hire a guide does not guarantee a fish. To me it's like chartering a private boat. As opposed to going on a party boat. It seems to me that you just had a little to much hateraid last night. To step on anyone's post and down play them isn't cool. You are entitled to your opinion. But it's tacky to post it on a thread like this. Don't hate cause the kid has the means to speed up his learning curve.

Not trying to sound like a dick

Just sayin
