Well we went out fishing tonight, and I found out the kayak we were planning on using had a puncture. Luckily we had some tape that was able to keep it from leaking long enough to get a bait out, at least the first 3 deployments. On the 4th deployment the left side of the kayak ran out of air, leading the kayak to flip when I dropped the bait. Needless to say, I was 200 yards out, in nearly 200' of cold water, in the pitch black with no life jacket. I ended up swimming back to shore with the kayak, and when I got back, a shark had taken the bait and we hooked up. 🤙

Went out for skates, and ended up catching a few 10'+ 6s. 

Some controversial fish, became the first person to land a 6 gill from California mainland, reposted.
