38lb YT La Jolla - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Nice fish! Especially on the hookup bait I'd figure a yellow like that would bend the hook on that type of plastic jig.

I went out Sunday and did the same except the Yellowtail didn't show up for the day but the Sand Bass and Calicos were eager to jump on the 1.5 oz hookup bait I sent down to the bottom!

Way to go! What color hook up bait did you use? Those baits get bit there’s no arguing that.

Great fish, my biggest landed was 37 but certainly not on a bass set up. I love those XL Yellows, I lost one that had to be 45. I know how you will remember the experience of being towed and fighting to bring up that Yellow. CONGRATS!

Way to go, that's a feat for a bass rod. Way to be patient.

Was using the sardine green/silver. I love using the red crab in the bay for sandies and spotties

Hook up baits use Owner hooks- they are strong!
