thanks for the photos!
hey Matt
thanks alot for the photos! appreciate it.. it's been awhile since i've gone fishing....or even posted.. but from time to time i'll check up and read on my favorite 2 sq. miles of ocean called La Jolla! and yeah, i'm still reading the about the regular guys, and some new faces killing trophies out there. it's always a good read to see a nice fish on someone's lap! i've been in Hawaii for the past 2 months and i haven't fished probably since mid August of last year, but a good friend caught a fish yesterday so shit i figured why not try catching one from my stand-up paddle surfboard? at 630 AM jumped in at the Cove, paddled straight across the kelp and 15 mins later i was fishing....one rod, my gaff, and two yoyo irons.. my first try fishing off my SUP..... i've had many double looks when i've fished LJ the past 4 years but off the SUP takes the cake! my old Shimano spring scale said it was 34#, it was a FAT fish, but i don't think it was that big.. my Dad will be stoked, i'm going back to Hawaii on Sunday with some Hamachi for him! La Jolla i'll see you in another 2 months! thanks again for the pics Matt! |
