Looks like a great day on the water. Thanks for the report.

@daperrin- Hard to complain when it's 70 degrees and glassy in the middle of December!
@JohnMckroidJr- Thanks! And you're right, I'd prefer to be stern-heavy than bow-heavy. We'll see how it performs when it's loaded down with yellowtail this season... ;P Also, I tried to do the same and line the rods up along the port-side rodholders so it was easier to turn to my right and get the fish in the bag. really had no problems doing it at all. @dorado123- Thanks! Haven't had a chance to do anything with the sand bass yet, but it's been vacuum-sealed since Sunday and ready to use. I'll report back with her review and how she cooked it. If you have any suggestions on how to prepare it best, I'd love to hear them. |

nice going out there. Glad that you knew about the 50fa rule and the rule about not fishing shoreward of the 50fa curve once you possess a rockfish.
I have caught 1000's of sand bass and have kept about 5 in my life. We just mainly hunted pelagics on the boat and didn't want to use part of our limit on a sand bass. With kayak fishing however, I would be willing to keep them for a fresh caught dinner. tasted really great when lightly floured and fried with butter tasted amazing when cut into slices and used in tom yum style hot pot not the greatest IMO for deep fried fish tacos. Its hard to beat cod and sculpin for that.

21" is the nice grade, it's superior taco meat.
Bisquick and beer batter fry at 325F, and always brine, dry and flour prior to batter. I prefer cabbage, you may prefer iceberg. A little chipotle sauce, corn torts, pico and lime wedges. They're almost as good as spotties.
