Redondo bat ray - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I really go after bats in the winter months with long rods from the surf and they're fun as heck to catch, but I think I'd hate to have to deal with one from a kayak! A big barbless hook makes the release a lot easier.

Once at Huntington Harbor. It got curious and flashed on my big hammer. I gotta say, it was the most fun I've had on 10lb in a long time. Releasing it was a pain as my buddy, and I struggled to unhook it before it bent my hook straight.
