Yes, we all had fun and got our limits before 10:00am.  We went to Bodega bay to do some crabbing and got about a dozen of the rock crabs.  It's a nice day until the wind blew hard in the afternoon.

Video has been removed--fake maybe. Never can be certain photos or videos are real any more. Or the owner removed it so they can sell it?

The story I read at another source made it sound as if the anglers knew it was a GWS prior to tossing the fly. Since they were also targeting Makos, I doubt they were in CA State waters, but you never know just what regulation you'll run afoul of.

Wonder why the video was removed? My guess is that maybe they feared fines because they knew what they did was wrong.
