Challenging day on the water Sunday with the Crew. Surf was crazy at launch! Pounded by set after set and my kayak flipped and broke a pole holder compromising my kayak to taking on water. Didn’t notice until I was out on the water. As soon as I got to the island I immediately had a huge fish hit my squid jig and rip drag pulling down hard. It was a heavy fish. I’m guessing a wsb, sheep, or ling. Pat thinks it was a wsb. Some how my rod tie down leash got wrapped in my reel in the moment, the reel seized and I lost the fish. Caught a few small Rockfish after that then headed to the kelp for a last attempt at something decent. Soon as I got there I hooked up to another Giant Black Sea Bass that pulled to hard it was almost tipping my kayak over and started to tow my kayak. The fish went through another kayakers line and got tangled in the kelp as well and I lost it. 2 big fish gone. On the way back in the swells were crazy big. All of us flipped except pat and Tim. I broke my net, lost my anchor and broke a pole holder. Luckily I didn’t break any poles. Still had an amazing time on the water with the crew! But what a day lol.
