Shut out at Shelter Island - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

mclanea · 08-30-2014, 12:39 PM

Went out with my son today to Shelter Island. (worked from the jetty to the pier and back, here's our track)

I was out there Mon night and caught 12... small calico & good sized SBB on a DS with a "chartreuse gulp"

Pretty much the same setup today and we only got like 1 legit bite and no fish landed. (6:30 - 9:00 AM)

Any tips for next time? We're new to this but committed to trying to figure it out.

Honestly, we just want to catch fish. I don't really care about the size at this point, just want my 11 year old hooked. (He loves the half & 3/4 day trips, but spendy to do regularly.)
