Last week conditions where as nice as I've seen and there where maybe 3-4 kayaks on the water, no boats. Now after 4-5days of people posting fresh reports on here you're telling me there are 12 boats and god knows how many kayaks? on a weekday? Sounds like the reason "everyone knows" is because of us posting fresh reports on this site. Even the kooks over on bloodydecks seem to keep their mouths shut better than us!

Yeap....
And the very next day there were
52 boats in that ONE little spot.
And that's not even as crowded as it gets!
No one is trying to harsh you for being stoked on your first yt.
I just wanted to point out that reports have a
direct impact on crowd.
I have a good view of the La Jolla
spot from my work and I watch the crowds fluctuate everyday.
It's one thing to be stoked and tell your friends, but the internet is not the place to do it anymore! Thousands of people view these posts daily.... I get it that you guys want to give back and help others get stoked and learn how to fish...
Just remember: this in the WWW
To quote
fishdope from last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday: "
kayakers in La Jolla catching Yellowtail..."
It's
not a
territorial thing guys. It's about having
respect for a limited
resource. I guess I care for these fish way too much..... and I hate seeing
lazy people rewarded.
Rhyak: You're right, it's no secret that YT and WSB will bite this year, next year, and hopefully the year after... yes the WSB always bite around the time the Fred Hall Show opens in March, that is NO secret. In fact they probably bit good on Feb 7th 1952 as well.
But: MOST people in this world are too lazy to get off their couch. They sit at home and wait for a "report" on the internet. Don't help the lazy idiots (Yes most of these idiots know how to fish and probably fish better than you) that sit at home and waiting for you to do all the ground work!
take care,
