LDP 4/23 - 4/25 And My First Time Using a DR and fighting a Ninja Trout

Great family outing , Liked the ninja trout story , Been out 4 times now trolling have not hooked up once yet.

Right on Al. Family fun! You definitely have a way with words, was getting all close to the computer while I was reading the post

Great report and pictures Al!!

Looks like a great time with the family!

Thank you for sharing!!

Sincerely,

Jim

I can confirm, he did in fact scream when the fish came at his face. It was crazy. This thing was jumping as high as his head!! Quinn and I just stood there like, awwww yeah, we're having fish for dinner.... but instead we had tri tip haha. It happens that way sometimes, and the tri tip turned out good anyway.

The weather was great and we had a great time, can't wait to go back!!

another great report, totally entertaining. Sometimes I think the trout are taught ninjitsu, and the lingcod are coached in power swimming.

nice pics & story!

Ah the ninja trout.  He was trained by ancient Japanese Koi who studied under the royal palace.  You are lucky to be alive my friend 

   

 

  As long as Quinn had a good time, the trip was a success!  I think he definitely has the "Madness"  about him.  Ninja trout?  OMG I was laughing.  I can't wait to get back to CA. and start participating in these outings again!
  Don't worry, using the DR will get easier, I had one on my 12' boat so I had some experience using one already when I mounted one to my OB.
