Dana Point - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Nice Fish! Glad you made it back OK. If you were at the point or further north that would have been a long (submarine?) ride back with no place to land. When I left the DP baitbarge on Fri I had 2 egrets land on my bow and one on my stern- fortunately they were not as heavy as a sealion! With the wind forecast I decided to fish the rivermouth and C&R'ed 5-6 short flatties and a leopard. I guess I need to get out to the point or salt creek to find the keepers.
PS-Try not to blame the baitbarge guys, they don't make the rules and they are actually very generous to kayak'ers with their scoop. In the 3 yrs I have fished Dana Pt. they have never been able to do a half scoop, but they will give you as much as your tank will hold at one time.
