Yeah, put them on ice and brought them home to filet...Common practice.

(Got me excited for a minute, but with the ocean conditions today, I really didn't think anyone was offshore for BF.)  A few have ben sighted.  One was caught before this storm.  Unknown what the aprés storm situation will be.  Fingers are crossed....


Plus, those are YF I believe, not BF.

Bushy
They don't got the pecs to be YFT.

Concur...2d dorsals fooled me, look yellow

Changed my mind.  YF not BF.  Take a look at this detail of 2d dorsal.


And, sorry cave dweller, but pic is not photoshopped.  I have confirmation this shot was taken on the wharf about 10:30 am.  I think maybe the shadows difference is a result of the sun being directly behind the and above the photographer.

Once again, I see the wisdom of quitting while I'm ahead.  (And reading all the posts before I start typing).

Pretty sure its a bft

The fish on the left I'm not sure, but the fish on the right definitely looks like a YFT.  I see some yellow coloring in the tail, and according to this description, the pectoral fin does reach past the start of 2nd dorsal fin. 
If you ain't first, you're last.

Anyone want to go Monday?  We're on.  Preference to someone that  either Bushy or I knows and have fished with before.  PM me for details.
