Mission Bay 6:30am - 12:45pm - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Covered a lot of water this morning, for zero, zip, nada. Launched at Mariners Basin and paddled to the bait barge, from there to half way out to the jetty. Drifted back in with lively bait on the bottom and throwing plastics, went all the way from the jetty to under and past Ingraham bridge. Tide is now slowly going out so I decide to paddle with the tide against the wind to back out where I started from....nothing. So now I get to drift with the wind against the tide back to Mariners Basin....still nothing.
This must mean next time I'll load up on a nice fish. Still jonesing to hit La Jolla but the size of the South Swell kept me in Mission Bay. I still have tomorrow and possibly Monday morning. Nice to chat with the fellow paddlers
