While I totally see your point, guy was just looking for a rod recommendation.  No need to get salty.

I didn't mean to imply it.  You are definitely a hater.  Drinking that Haterade.

thanks to the youtube community, i am both a Top 3 Sport Burner and not a real fisherman 

Sorry, just looking for a laugh or two 


I'm going to toss out something personal here, for what it's worth i'm not sure what my point is actually, but sharing it anyway.

First year I that I went kayak fishing on the ocean, I joined some folks for a hookup in Big Sur.  I thought I knew my regulations, went out fishing (forget where, not LK though) and had an OK time out there but only caught three fish, like a black, blue and verm, nothing huge, but I was supper happy.  I headed back in with the group and we landed and were on the beach breaking down gear and this rubber boat we saw launch earlier had just come in and landed next to us.  Could see they had a PILE of very pretty fish in their cooler.  One of them said they thought they had an extra one or two and offered them to me.  I didn't see anything wrong with accepting one from them and took a fish and put it on my game clip.  Soon as I did that I stood back up and there was a DFG warden standing right next to me and said 'Did you know Canary's are no take, that's an illegal fish?"  I was in shock, he took the fish and wrote me a ticket on the spot.  I didn't say anything about getting it from those other guys while he was writing it, as I had learned in my youth to never say anything to an officer if they are already writing you a ticket.  I then waited until they had dealt with the boaters and then approached the officer and told him the situation how I got the fish from them.  That apparently changed things for them as the officer now said they were over limit and that's a worse offense, and asked if I would take a statement to it, which I did.  I still got the ticket, over 400$, owning up to it didn't change a thing.  Definitely never made another mistake like that again.  But I started out thinking I knew the rules, as I had done my best to study them.
