Way to go Jim sorry I missed the awards I split early as I wanted to get home before the bay to breakers traffic on sunday.Nice meeting you I was the guy you followed in on friday.

Wanted to add on that I got snagged A LOT on Saturday...and lost a fair amount of tackle down there...which in the end may have helped me out cuz I caught each fish on a different rig:

-Verm on Green Leadhead with White Splittail Scampi w/squid
-Ling on Red Leadhead with Rootbeer Splittail Scampi w/squid
-GreenLing on Ling/Hex Bar
-Cabbie on Blue LeadHead (that was part of the tournament goodie bag!!) with Dark Green Splittail Scampi with squid

Anyway, thought it was pretty cool that the piece of tackle that I got as part of my goodie bag scored me a sweet Cabbie!! 

Sincerely,

Jim

hey guppyreneer - what's up with the patterns on that lingcod?  Is that a photo artifact?

Nice job everyone. Congrats Jim.
Zilla and I couldn't make it, we had plans of our own.
I was hosting a wedding in my backyard and Zilla was the ultimate grillmaster. Tri tip, chicken, dogs and burgers, oysters on the 1/2 shell.
Not quite GS4 but came darned close.

I was wondering the same thing with that lings pattern?  Looks like he picked up the impression of a milk crate or something?

Congrats on the kayak win Big Jim! GD Bird that salmon is a fatty for sure. You are coming down to make dinner this weekend , right?

PS Saltydog I see Eric didnt boot you for disturbing the peace. Fatty verm dude WTG!

already had the grill marks! I think that is the net that rubbed off some slime. I had one do the same where I held its tail

Looks great and looks like everybody have a good time...I missed out. .

Tell us what the seal did to you.

Multiple big belly flops right next to me resulting in big splashes of icy cold water at a really bad moment.
 ie:pants down.
