Headhunter, San Pedro

Report from Fishingnetwork.net:

Here's my first report on FNN... Had a great time on the Head Hunter today--nice to meet Mke, Justin, and Capt. Jim! You guys were awesome in helping this newbie out. Here are some pics:


What an epic day of fishing for me! I was using dropper loops with #4 hooks/5" swimbait and a 5 oz. torpedo sinker. I never had anything "run" on me so it was exciting to hear the reel buzz as the lingcod took line. The company was great and very helpful and Capt. Jim did a great job of putting us on the fish.
