In his second post the admin sounds like a nice guy but my reaction to the first was "OK, if you are such a badass then why did you bother logging on to the internet and showing off your catch to these people you look down on so? "Shutup and fish" seems to apply as much to him as to anyone; preening like this makes you a Peacock!"

I recognize his right to be provocative. But of course some people when provoked will want to sound off. The threats made against those who did are the worst thing in the whole thread. I'm sure there are many more who thought it obnoxious but quietly moved on.

I trust the OP has a tough skin and won't be bothered by my comments. I have the utmost respect for his fishing skills, just think the the tone of the first post was a bit more insulting than he intended. I'm not saying this because I'm afraid of any tough guys out there, but because one day maybe I'd like to hire him as a guide and learn a thing or two.

The thead should probably be locked. If it gets deleted please at least leave the pic of that incredibly fine, glorious fish. If I ever land something like that in the yak I'll have a stroke and they'll find my cold body cradling the fish with a huge grin.

This is the most accurate, eloquently put way to describe my original feelings on this thread. My initial comment was made directly to the man intended but due to the platform on which the comments are made, a whole new door is open for hecklers, peanut gallerys ,naysayers and everyone elses 2¢.

Im not a tough guy. I dont go around disrespecting people. Especially not behind the mask of internet anonymity. And I realize as I type this even more people wil chirp in with thier meaningless blather. Im not throwing threats out there. Im saying ive never met an angler on the water that talkes the same highstepping garbage he spews online.

Scallywag is right... Everything you need to know is in the picture. Darkhorse was even throwing us a bone by posting a picture with the shoreline in the background. What more do we want! He's practically finding the seabass for you Scavenge why dont you u tenacious seabirds!

Just wait til the WFO squid bite then once we all get 40 lbers we can just laugh about all these finicky early season she-monsters

(Just as long as scallywag doesn't keep the dope to himself!)

Up until a few years ago we DID NOT have squid runs like we've had recently! I hope we get another one this summer, but don't count on it!

Just go fish!

ps: Nice fish Josh!

Dont worry he won't..

This just in, this isnt the MMA forum its a kayak forum.
We fish from the gayest looking platforms on the planet
(although we catch a lot of fish might I add.)..............Its a well known fact that pelagics like 7x's better than Ipads and 6xjr's better than keyboards thats never gonna change.
Soooooooo ADI and ANDY: without further ado, although this post has everything its missing two crucial elements


Coke


and



Hookers.....


Now that we got that outta the way.

Lock it up boys.

Thanks everyone for reminding me why I'll never post another fish report.


Josh nice fish and great entertainment.
