What is Jumping in the bay - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

You should see them in the carlsbad lagoon. They get pretty big and I had one jump over the bow of my yak. It definitely made me flinch. Almost reminded me of those jumping asian carp that have infested the rivers in the midwest. There are plenty of videos of boaters/fisherman getting whacked in the face by those jumping turds as they zoom down the river.

I hear they are quite sporty on fly gear or light tackle but they'll only hit bread/dough or flies.
