Kayak fishing adventure from the little water's...uh...middle...

...Lake Perris that is on 3/13/2016.

I got somewhat of a late start launching probably at 10:30 AM. The water was smooth for most of the morning then as the PM set in stronger winds added some chop. Thanks to the two fellow yakers who suggested a bait change because that's when the real fun started. Photos below tell more of the story.....

Bass - This 21-inch model (measured) revealed himself via my fishfinder then hit my jig within two shakes. Nice to actually hear the drag scream on the freshwater scene. This guy took four solid runs and jumped twice.



Bass - This model came quickly after aforementioned bait change. Thanks again guys!




Glass Conditions - It was nice to be able to stand up and fish from time to time. Anglers with their fishing boats making the "hole-shot" were the only occasional disturbance. The lake was almost devoid of any "pleasure boaters", jet-skis, etc...




Wind Chop - The lake turned choppy with stronger winds in the PM


All fish were released unharmed.

Enjoy!

Matt
