Kayak Salmon - Monterey Bay 7/4/2017

Sorry this is a little late but I took the kayak out on Fourth of July morning in search of some chrome. Found one 15 pounder mooching a live anchovy in around 80 FOW. Met two other guys who caught limits. Forgot your names, but it was nice meeting you guys. Check out the video from the day here:

Wow!

Badass, haven't heard a kayak/salmon/mooching combo this year.  Nice!

awesome video!! can feel the rush as you were fighting it!! keep it up

Late report is better than no report. Cool. Thanks for the porn.

That 1st still sot is a classic.

here I cleaned it up for you a bit.

Good job. But I see no big net.
With a big net you will land it a lot faster and a chance of it getting away is much less. My .02.

Good stuff.   Yes that still pic should be framed!  That is a great shot.

Congrats and thanks for the report, pictures, & cool video.

Great video. 

curious you say you caught it in monterey bay however the beginning looks like capitola?

Curious how you keep a live anchovy on a barb less hook?  I would love it if you showed us how that's done.

Thanks
