Some reasons why i kayak fish:
1. The hunt! Target species, bait, weather, tide, location, wind, etc...
2. the feeling of the bite and the thrill/anxiousness of landing the fish
3. the gear and gadgets! getting gear and setting it up is just as fun for me!
4. being outdoors. I have a desk job!
5. freedom to roam about the ocean(sort of. within paddle/peddle range)
I love seeing the guys on the rocks wishing he was in a kayak!
6. Cheaper than going out on a boat every weekend!
7. being alone
8. being with my son and doing something we both like!
9. You never know what you're gonna pull up!
10. i like to eat fish!!!

For the great rainbow pics on the water! Lol! Thanks Jaime. Fishing for us was SLOW last Saturday, but it looks like you had similar results inside the harbor as we did outside Tony.

I try to have fun fishing with friends, and sometimes when solo, you never know who you might meet at the launch! Met some retired army guy a few weeks ago (that isn't on here) and he ended up flipping from the big yacht traffic in Newport. Didn't know I'd be taking a swim to help him get back in his yak that day!

It's always a fun adventure on the water, catching is just a bonus ( at least I tell myself)!! Cheers

Thanks Obama...

Jim sammons posted this on his FB. If you need another reason for why you do it after watching this, then maybe you shouldnt be fishing.
