Tried to post this earlier but I'm struggling on this site... Oh well :smt009

I caught this beast on live bait just west of Hog Island yesterday morning.  (Caught the Jack Smelt I used as bait north of hog island) The ranger from Marin Parks thought it was between 50# and 60#.  What an experience on a kayak!

You might as well give up kayak fishing right now. It's gonna be hard to top that!

Congrats!
