I did not have any bites, except bunch of bait on sabiki , till 11:30. And then got barely legal ling (who would usually have gone home but I promised to bring fish for dinner)

Anybody knows why it was so slow today?

Congrats, Travis! And thanks a lot, Bushy and all who made it happen!

That winning fish was awesome---pictures just don't do it justice.

I had a big takedown that about ripped the rod out of my hands. Unfortunately, it broke off after about 20 minutes.

There are no fish left in SC---they're all in Bushy's freezer.

Congrats Travis!

Fishing was slow.  Caught some macks.  Sent a big one down live and had a huge take down, fought it for a minute and it was gone.  Most likely a shark.  Cut my 40lb test double line leader.

Thanks to Kayak Connection & Bushy for putting it all together.

Fishing was very slow for me as well. Only a couple of small RF and a few baits but I had a good time anyway. Thanks to Kayak Connection and Bushy for put a great event, PolePole for taking me out and congrats Travis on this beautiful fish
