Thank you so much!

[@DaveysWorldFishing]

Very cool! Good for you. What an epic season we had out here in SoCal.

[@jwestfishing3229]

Thank you so much! The amount of Dorado was unheard of! What a great year for SoCal offshore! Tight lines!

[@OkumaFishingUSA]

Right on! Great catch. Putting the Komodo SS and Guide Select to work!

[@jwestfishing3229]

Thank you! Yes sir! A little undergunned for that caliber fish, but the gear handled it beautifully! Go okuma!

[@winchester9432]

So cool to see how real pros do it. Great hook up on the marlin, and great video too.

[@jwestfishing3229]

Thank you so much! I appreciate you

[@SouthwestKayakFishing]

Watching that Marlin jump was pretty spectacular! Congratulations of such a great hookup! I’m sure I’ll see you fishing out of Dana sometime

[@jwestfishing3229]

Thank you so much! I hope to see you there!

[@jordanbose706]

FUCKKKKKK man id be pissed... im so upset you didnt get it... Man that was a nice fish!!! he will grow biggger for you to catch him next year!!!!

[@jwestfishing3229]

I know! I bought a brand new fishing rod. Just in case.🤣

[@jasone942]

How many miles out were you guys? were you straight out west of the harbor or were you south/west? we are going in two weeks. Congrats on that hook up.

[@jwestfishing3229]

Thank you so much! That hook up was about 4 miles West. We ended up going about 7 miles out.

[@playdirty714]

You brought a knife to a gun fight. Bring a beefier rod and reel if you're going out west for big fish. That marlin can pull you for miles. Did you use sardines free line and trolled with it?

[@jwestfishing3229]

I was just fly lining a sardine. I wasn't expecting to hook into a fish like that. The rod is rated at 40 lb., and the reel is a 400 size with 300 yards of 50 lb braid. Plenty for the target species. Thanks!

[@DSwi67]

Ever encounter any White sharks out there?

[@jwestfishing3229]

Not yet! Mako & sand shark
