I appreciate the props on my first Thresher buddy, it was an serious rush and an awesome fish - what a sight swimming around right next to the boat. And thanks again to Todd (A.K.A INGRIDSDAD) for changing my course and putting me on a b-line for "the corner" instead of the kelp.
After waiting all morning for the fog to burn off (and having a dank carne asada breakfast burrito at the kitchen) I didn't have to wait long for bait and a wild ride from a 10ft TS. After making bait on the first drop my second drift along the edge of the reserve was all it took. Then it was all about keeping pressure on the fish and my ass in the boat.
I think I am going to like SoCal and Kayak fishing more than AL. Looks like I will be headed down from Newport to SD again this weekend so I will keep an eye on the reports.
