8/23 south La jolla
 

Launched at Big Rock about 6 AM. Wind was already up out of the south, but the surf was small. Trolled a sabiki and a swimbait. found not takers on the sabiki, but kept getting stopped on calicos on the swimbait. good thing I brought a few as they were chewing the tails off of em.

By the time I got out to the spot, there were 2 sporties, 40 pbers and 4 other kayakers. Nobody was going bendo and the sporties headed to NW around 8 AM. The YT came through around 8:30:D. There were alot of diving birds on the sporties residual chum. I saw some flying differently, like birds do over a school of fish, higher and watching and waiting. Sure enough once under the birds, I hooked up on the 5"smelt pattern on the 1oz leadhead. By the time I was at color the 2 boats just south of me are bendo. Started throwing surface iron at conspicuous birds. Had one of those bump and hand slip off the handle moments :mad: The rest of the morning seemed to be a slow pick of fish caught on slow trolled or drifted sardines for the pbers. I headed in around 11 content with dinner and my first Big Rock yellowtail. Note my attire, first time fishing in jeans as I forgot my shorts at homelol
