i get no love in la jolla
i have fished la jolla 5 times in the last 2 weeks. ive got skunked every time. ive launched into the darkness and fished into the darkness. made bait. trolled one high and one low. I threw the iron a thousand times. each day i drifted a new line off the point. i dont have a fish finder yet so i dont really no my depths. but i coverd alot of water. there was tons of bait today. lots of dolphins and seals. lots of bird activity. no fish. each trip out ive seen whales all moving south. the weather is perfect. ill be back out there on thursday.

oph well...I'm not giving up...I'm on a friggin' mission now!!!! everytime I thow that jig or toss that iron, I'm hangin on!!!! 'cause I KNOW it's comin'... not sure when, but it's comin'!!!!! have faith my brother...you...we will score!!! and when you...we...do... it will have been worth every second of effort!!!!! I'll be looking forward to your post when you do!!!!! and you better smile BIG!!!!!!! I know I will!!!! |
That makes 3 of us!

oh, there's a few more folks I'm sure. :)
Not everyone can whisper to them like friggen Josh. :D But nothing wrong with spending time with Da Jewel. Sounds like you are doing the right stuff, keep at it and it will come. Drop a live bait on the bottom, this time of the year, why not. Won't hurt. Get a fishfinder, knowing depth helps. You'll know where the kelp is. Won't hurt. ;) |

Oh man, The Josh is now calling it. :D I wonna go fishing. |
That’s why they call it FISHING and not CATCHING- only Josh says ”I’m going catching today”..................:biggrinjester:

Keep doin what your'e doin and it'll come. Sometimes it's skill, sometimes time on the water, and sometimes you just get f'n lucky ... like I did a few days ago with this chunk. They are out there - see you otw tomorrow.

Your zen lesten for the day:
To do something wrong is not failure, it is not bad, awful or shameful either. It is, in fact, a part of life and a part of learning. Quitting is the only true failure. <O:p Those who come to learn and stop trying because it is too difficult or too painful fail. <O:p</O:p<O:p</O:p To stop doing, to give up, that is unacceptable. The ones who stick it out and continue to try will continue to succeed. Attachment 887<O:p</O:p |
Never give up
Don't see pictures of my TY, SB, SBB or Flatties! Just being out on the water away from my office, is good enough for me. I concider what we do as fun some what of a luxury...So each time I go out, don't expect anything but a great day on the water!

This Saturday's my day !!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Staying Positive) |
15 attempts at catching a yellowtail in La Jolla and only one firecracker (first day out).....I get skunked everytime I'm out there but I learn something new and my only expectations are to get a nice a paddle in...last time I was out I was just stoked to try out a couple new knots and techniques ......Thanks to this website, people on the water/launch site, and putting time on the water I have learned an enormous amount of info in a short amount of time. just a matter of time to hook into something other than a sea lion and a pelican:) Hopefully this Friday!

CHUNKY!!!! :notworthy: |
Try fishing LJ for one whole year without landing one YT or WSB. That was the case 12 years ago when I first started fishing from a kayak. LJ can be very frustrating, but you have to admire her beauty when it's slow. It could be worse, you could be at work instead of fishing...or changing diapers:(.
