Turned on bait tank and boy i had a big surprise my feet and butt got soaked. i didnt know I had to take the plug out of the bottom of the tank thought it would recycle thru the side boy was I ever wrong lol. So to finish out the day it got real choppy out there and boats flying by and tossing me around like a rag doll I told hubby lets call it a day I am wet and cold. So the fish won that day. Fish 1 me 0

I was out there as well that day. I believe I was the only other yak fisherman out there besides your group. I spoke with your husband right before I hit the barge. Got hit real hard but whatever it was let go. I immediately dropped the line again and it started peeling line off. I'm not sure if the booger cut my line or if I tightened the drag too much but the line was cut right above the hook. The rest of the day was real slow and cold. Got bumped out my more favorite fishing spots by the coast guard. Got surveyed by a dfg when I landed.

it was funny before we went out the cops pulled a guy over and he said someone stole his wallet and had no money to get out. but i guess the guy was drunk. lol so we got lucky on missing the dfg guy as well not that im illegal cuz im not all legal eagle here.
