Sail Bay - Weekend of 1/6 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

01-10-2012, 11:47 PM

Hit the Bay a lot this weekend. Had some good action. Hit a lot of spotted bass on some "Spotty Special" hammer swimmers with a "Sexydine" War Slayer weedless head and got a nice one on a larger 5" Bay Smelt Hammer swimmer
The War Slayer heads are a little pricey, about $4/ea for the big ones and $6-7a pair of 1/2oz depending where you get them, but they're definitely worth it. I found Charkbait to be the cheapest so far. Dana's Landing is just obnoxiously over priced for them

Caught a nice little Halibut on a 5" Sardine Hammer as well, sent him back to the bay for someone else. Lost a few tails on my plastics to some Halibut too, I feel like they need a stinger. So at least I know they are out there. Nice late bites too. Been having some fun while the swells were still around!

Have fun, tight lines
Message me if you want to go, I'll be out there all week.

Don't mind the sunglasses, I couldn't find mine so I borrowed my roommates, who thinks he's Kanye.

The one on the right taped in at just over 12''

nothing like paying 5xthe cost of your purchase in shipping.

those Warbait slayer heads are pretty killer though. Picked some up at FHLB last year and have bought a few at hogans in Dana Point since. Havent lost one yet fishing heavy kelp vertically or casting to snags in the kelp. Definitely worth the price i think. Sounds like your having fun...but do yourself a favor and dont post this one on BD.
