Yep went out in the 17’ straight to the charleston 60 had a really big king on atleast 40+ broke off at the boat!!! Hooked another soon after around the 15+ range same story. Trolled for another 15min and had enough headed to commanche. Got to commanche and lines werent in the water for 2 mins and we already had a dolphin on it was like this all day with constant action ended the day 1:00 with 8 nice dolphin and a decent size king. Good day for the 17’ Trophy!!

That is awesome, how long did it take you to get to the comanche and how deep is it there?
Harry Sea. Thats how I roll.
Well we went straight from the jetties to the 60 that took about half an hour trolled there then went to COM that took around an hour i would say. So about an hour and a half. Maybe a little more maybe a little less. Ran out of room for fish thats why i need the 25 footer or at least thats what im tellin dad:stuck_out_tongue:

Did you go alone(just one bote)? and if you want a partner boat to go out sometime, I have an 18’ scout and I come down to the coast quite frequently

It is probably a king. Can’t see the lateral line in the pic. People mistake them for big spanish all of the time. Even people with lots of experience. There is a rumor that an experienced fisherman won the spanish in the trident last year with a king!! 
Red, Don’t worry about what people say on here. 99% would not say it to your face so don’t take ANYTHING personal. When I was 17, if my Dad would have had a little bigger boat, I would have been out there with my best friend doing what you did. Good job BTW. Just have fun and keep it legal and as long as YOU can live with your actions don’t worry about others opinions. Keep it up!
Settle down cowboy. You had an awesome day in a little boat. I was / am giving you a hard time for saying that you caught a decent king. You need to settle down in a big way. Take a breath before you spill something all over yourself and then post it for the world to see on the internet. And oh yeah, thanks for the good laugh.
First, after your headboat school trip, you thrash a man’s business b/c you were only able to keep one dolphin after you cried to your teacher about the mates keeping the ones you reeled in… not too cool for a victimized 17 yo or anyone else. Especially after they gave you a fish and I bet you did not give them a tip.
Being a victim is a bad way to go through life. Counseling may legitimately be in order. Not joking here.
Congrats on your day the other day. I am serious about that. I was very proud when I was younger of all of the fish that I caught. It seems that you caught more dolphin in your little boat than I did in my slightly larger little boat yesterday. Good for you. And for your info, the Carla Dee is a 1978 SeaCraft Sceptre with a 1998 Optimax with almost 1400 hours on it. And yes it is indeed a sweet ride to me.
The bambi comment seemed obvious to me. Perhaps you have not heard of the movie, or you are not a hunter, or you don’t know that juvie kings have spots like bambi. You said you caught a DECENT KING. Well buddy, decent kings generally don’t have their spots (and to spell it out for you, decent whitetail deer generally don’t either, but the fawns (bambies) do have their spots. Calling that a decent king, if it was indeed a juvenile king and not a spanish (research the difference in lateral lines of the fish if you would like to be able to ID them in the future) then was the equivalent of a deer hunter killing a 6 month old, 35 pound fawn, and calling it decent. That is why it was funny).
Having to explain that is just sad. But we all have to learn somewhere.
Furthermore, I am willing to help you out on a couple of conditions, only
Im really curious, how old are you carla dee?

OVER BUDGET
18 is just about right…
Red Pretty generous offer from Daniel to maybe fish on the Carla Dee maybe should consider for safety reason only if not for knowledge Just my 2 cents worth:question: Daniel if your 18 I’m only 22:smiley:

That Looks just like a big Spanish. Look at the lateral lines on said fish if you have a good side view. King = -------________ Looks like that the bend is behind the second dorsal fin.
Spanish Has the same line but not defined drop. looks like a wavey line.
Or open the gill plate and look at the first set of gills. King has 6 to 8 fingers on it while a spanish has 12 to 14. other than that it will take a DNA test to tell.
Other than that great haul on a 17 keep up the good work.
