1 for 2 today
At about 7am I see my first ever YT school crashing the surface 10 or so yards in front of me. I quickly retrieve my flylined and toss it into the foray, I thumbed the spool and in 15 seconds I was violently on. It made 2 good runs did a 360 around me then it was under the yak, I had the gaff ready ...... pop! It was gonzo. Guaranteed no fircraker YT the way he towed me with authority. I retied a new hook, pinned on another GB (flylined) and went out to deeper water. Started to make bait when all of a sudden my flyline starts singing I pick it up set the hook after about 20 seconds and this guy is on again. Couple of runs, and to my surprise its a nice WSB. 49inches as measured by Hubbs Research Institute, 37.6lb weighed at the Dana Landing certified scale by Gene. Pictures taken by Adam (thank you). ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Nicely done John. I've had no time to check the boards lately - Scrib called me this evening to let me know you nailed another (last time you caught one, it was Jason calling me in Hawaii to inform me of what I was missing).
Good job man - time on the water pays. -kvn
