Re: Shorediving is Rough

Nice fish. People are always going to give you shit on the internet or in person regarding fish weight, size, numbers caught, basically anything your post or talk about. Son instead of getting upset about it, join in on the ball busting.

Re: Shorediving is Rough

Just like any good sea story you always over exaggerate fish size!

Re: Shorediving is Rough

Nice fish!

But the elephant in the room needs to be addressed:

You said you did a 100’ dive. Please tell me you have a spotter when you’re diving deep. If not, you really need to take a freedive class.

You still estimating 35 on the others?

We're leaning toward a guilty verdict
That's a different fish. Noah's been on fire this year, shot 2 35's in the early season along with some smaller ones and that 23 pounder more recently.

Re: Shorediving is Rough

Most of you couldn't eyeball a 20 sack. What makes you think you can eyeball a fish to within a pound lol. Why post a weight if you didn't scale it?

I crush a lot of slugs and those are nowhere near 35.

I shoot big fish, and those fish are nowhere near as big as mine.


The dude never learned how to make friends in the sandbox. Don't sweat it, it doesn't look like you are. Beautiful fish.

That happened to me word for word in August this year.

Did you immediately go out and buy a threaded shaft and Mori tip?

Juvie WSB, two 35 lb. YT and one 20 lb. YT, hali and bonito.

I also hit a 100' dive with plenty of air to spare on an unproductive day offshore, even now thinking about that moment gets my blood pumping. Stoke is real

Good report.Thank you for posting it.
