i had trouble catching greenies with sibiki . i was able to catch sardines and spanish , this was in the midst of a wide open bite . i should have dumped the spanish macs and headed to 95 ' of water with the few "dines" that i had . i have never really fished sardines in Lj , but needless to say these are great baits . this week i switched back to a pre made double hook setup tipped with squid , which wasn't working for me either .so i started to head offshore with the one greenback that i had , but after 45 min. of paddling , decided to try and tie off , hoping that the winds would die down . remarkably i was able to stay stationary with only two strand of kelp . i did this for 45 minutes to no avail . i tried to head off shore again , but was quickly fatigued and headed back in . the paddle back in seemed to take longer than normal , maybe i was out of gas from the start . swells were pretty big , combined with the wind i almost felt like i was about to flip on the PA , had i done something stupid . coming back in , the water definitely had more power , but so far i have been lucky on the pro angler and have not gotten destroyed . this might have been a better day for a outback . hope to see you guys on the water soon . take care .
