Got on the water about 5:45am, lots of chop, and a moderate amount of wind spashing water around but still manageable. About 9am the wind died down. Tried Yoyoing a blue/white iron until my arms nearly fell off, for only 1 Bonita (15"), a sculpin and an oversized mack. I was bit hard only once and had a nice ride going for about 30 seconds when just like that it was gonzo! Very much a bummer. Didn't want to post any pics because nothing to brag about. Next time!

Thanks for the report.

I always declare it to have been a shark or BSB when that happens. Makes me feel better. :doh:

I was gonna go this morning but forgot to turn on the alarm after setting it. Oh well.

Any light boats out?

Thats what I said to myself about ten minutes later" was probably a shark" made me feel a little better, not really.

Did see about 8 or 10 other kayakers, 2 PBers, didn't see anyone with anything or any hookups but then again I didn't jump into anyones "spot", just my own! all the spots were there for the takin'.

I have been seeing loads of gulls flying NW across WindanSea Beach in the recent evenings, again they were heading out for the canyon at sunset tonight. Assuming that means what I think that means.

Nice talkin with you today ratdog.

I casted for a few solid hours to no avail. I did get a thrill though when the mac was picked up by a 5ft Leopard Shark. All fish released cept for the mac that was eaten.

Nice meeting you on the water James, Dennis and Ed. I'll be back down to LJ soon. The drive there isn't bad, just the drive back. Ended up with one monster mac on the iron. It was fun just paddling around out there to get a feel of how huge that place is. Untill next time.
