Nice, Um, did you swim out and wrestle it? ;)

Is that the new thing, noodling for guitarfish instead of catfish.
Congrats Ben! Those things are +1 for sure and get quite big.
No leopard sharks? Were you using that spinning gear you had with you the last time at the Soup Kitchen?
You have a few more dozen to easily add to your list soon.

Nope, that was the only fish for the evening. Three other guys fishing near me, only saw one small bat ray caught between them.
I was using light tackle so I had a chance at a corbina. 6 lb line with a 10 lb leader.
Congratulations Ben!
Congrats...now for the Leo and your officially a Ca. Surf fisherman.
Big Ben, Congrats!
Congrats Ben....I got my first of the year a couple days ago too...most summers they are by far my most common species brought on to the sand...
