This from a couple of years ago. Special for two reasons. 3 months from new hip and 1 month from neurosurgery. Surgeon said (in presence of wife)"go for it and you will regain some function". So I went fishing!
Also used my salmon mooching/SF Bay live bait outfit.  Calstar #196 7-1/2 ft. blank 12-20, and Calcutta 400s. Thanks to Alan's drags I won. At Pt. Bonita on a sardine-Just over 41 lbs. at the dock. My partner had to lift it-I was pooped!.

Beautiful fish!

They do look a lot like a Spring Salmon-not surprised to hear that Salmon gear was the perfect ticket.
