Shores launch report - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

nmbrinkman · 04-13-2007, 05:09 PM

I punched thru that junk this morning around 10am. Took quite a few to the chest thanks to the "speediness" (lol ) of the FnD. I never realized how much water can cover the kayak and how slow it is when it's draining thru the scupper holes. Seeing a huge wave coming right for me and I'm literally inching along

. Anyway, bait was tough but I managed to run into a school of dines and made a couple (first for me). Didn't need them anyway. Probably a 9'-11' (estimate) swell from trough to peak on the outside. Not fun but luckily I don't get sea sick.... Won't be able to make it out this weekend.. Bummer...
