Getting a late start, I headed out to give Huntington Harbour a shot. The 12:30pm high tide helped
out by providing some nice water movement.
There were plenty of clouds of small baitfish moving throughout the harbor and the spotties seem to
be getting healthy off this food source as they were strong and full of fighting energy.
Since watching the
'Game On' Kayak Fishing Video, I have always kept a pair of bolt cutters in a dry
bag tied inside the middle hatch. Today I decided to try it out to make sure it works in case I really
need it some day. --Well, okay, so I didn't purposely hook myself to test it, but I don't want to let on
why I was casting an iron in Huntington Harbour, either.
Anyway, for the bolt cutters, they worked perfectly, easily cutting the treble so I didn't have to
paddle with an iron hanging from my hand. It is easy to see how important this would be when out
in open ocean.
