Some darn nice fish. With all the internet exposure and guide services now advertising trips I had thrown in the towel on CC, maybe prematurely.

18.5" was the longest fish. The numbers were down this time but all the fish were quality and fat. I unfortunately lost my biggest fish ever (again), I seem to be making that a bad habit. The darn thing broke off on a violent head shake, totally my fault, didn't give it the respect it deserved and pushed it too hard. We got a good look at it when it jumped and JoeD estimated over 20". Who knows, good times and fun to do battle.

Some other fun photos.

I had a small one about that size hit my walk the dog last time I was out. When he hit I yanked him up out of the water and he and the bait flew and crashed into the side of my kayak. Unfortunately that was the last bite that little guy took because it knocked him out cold, no more swimming from the little guy. :( Not sure what they are thinking when they bite a bait that is bigger than they are.
