Grats on the PB and the multiple species! Looks like you left the water at the PERFECT time. we got there right as you left, and pretty much skunked except for a little stingray.


Gotta get me a tube/kayak....

[Newfishsmell]

Looks like 4 hours of fun in the sun !
Nice way to start the day .

[Swank909]

Good looking fish John. Xmas Tree is my absolute favorite bighammer!

[murrieta angler]

Very nice session Jonh,
That 18"er is a beauty, I'm glad you put it back so I can get it next time I head out...:Big Grin:
That YFC looked pretty chunky also.
About how big was the Hali?
I was looking at the tide and thought it would be a good day for the SBB.
Thanks for the report and pics,
Robert

Thank you Frank, I felt I was about due for a pig that size! After the release, I sat there staring at the water where she came from with a big smile on my face for about 2 minutes:Envious::LOL::LOL:

[flyngby]

John,

Looking through all my SBB ID photo's I do not recognize that Grumpy as ever being enticed into a photo opportunity!

Great job on all the catches!

Sorry to hear conditions shut you down on what looked like was going to be an even greater day of tub'in!

Thanks for the kind words in the PM!
