View Full Version : My Bluefish in the kayak story

In the other thread, someone ask about how you land a bluefish in a kayak, so that reminded of a funny story (to you guys not me) about the day I took my new wife with me out in the yak. It was 1998 and my wife wanted to go out in the yak in Townsend Inlet. So we took my OK Malibu II out and I brought my two favorite rods along. She wanted to fish too even though she never did a lot of fishing so I gave her my new Lamiglass rod and threw on a Rapala minnow that has the two sets of treble hooks. A Half hour passes and we drift towards the Avalon side. I catch a few small Blues and suddenly she hooks into something and I grab the rod and pull a 10-12 lb Blue up to the kayak. I forgot the net so I lip grip him and pull him into the kayak and put him on the deck between my legs to pull the lure out. Yes, I know never put a Blue into the yak but I wasn’t not expecting what happened next. I tried to give my wife the rod to hold but she drops into the water. So fearing I will lose my rod I reach over the side of the yak ignoring the fact this pissed off Blue is in my lap Suddenly I feel this intense pain in my groin area and look down and realize this Blue has buried his head into my crotch and it feels like he has a death grip on my balls. Now I have to decide, save the rod or unleash this angry Blue from my balls. So I cut the line. After some painful prying I see he has buried one set of the treble hook in my inner thigh and the other in my balls. And he is still flopping around. So I hold him down until he dies, then I decide I better not try to pull the hooks out of my balls. I use my knife to cut his head off and toss the rest overboard. There is not blood everywhere at this point. I am in agony. So we have to paddle back to the beach area on the Sea Isle side of Townsend, which is full of families and fisherman. I get out of the kayak holding a fish head to my crotch area, where every movement is killing me. At this point I don’t care what other think as they see me holding the fish head exiting a bloody yak. So we go to the Emergency Room at that small hospital on the Parkway. So I sit in the wating room with this fish head sitting in my lap and figure I don’t need to explain this to anyone. And you know how Blues have that ordor so everyone is really pissed at me in the Wating Room. I get to see the doctor and he give me the “ I never seen this one before.” So after the doctor removed the hooks, a few sticthes, and some swelling for a few days, everything got back to normal there. After this I only fish solo on the yak and never leave the net behind.
I guess my best advice is net a fish, never pull him into the Kayak, or better yet, just wear an athletic cup.:D

I am glad you guys enjoyed that. I am glad nobody had a camera around that day. In July I will be down that way and and can reshoot a video for that but there is one catch - one of you guys can volunteer to be stunt double. And I lied, it was 6/0 treble hooks. Any voluteers:D

Hysterical.
One of the finest stories I have ever heard... and I was an English major.
You need to sell that story to a sitcom writer and let them develop an episode out of it.
