Birds of a feather... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

...that sleek Hobie Revo makes you look thinner. Much more so than the portly pro angler... or it might be that you are in the background of a fat fish.

I'm not sure, it could be a combination of all of it.

The daily grind persistence paid off. Nice catch.

Not everyone can be a proffessional guide, and while I sit at my boring job from 5am to 4pm...yes, I will be living vicariously through fine chaps such as yourself on this world wide interspace. While im at it I'll banter. And joke. And gosip like a school girl. And stay light hearted because I don't have a huge stick up my ass.
On the same note, as I leave my job when the bell rings this fine 4/20 I'll be packing up, hitting the road, and doing what it is we do, because this shit is in my bones.
Its easy to classify people. I guess noone should even post on this site since we should all be religiously fishing 7 days a week.

These Birds have had a big role on this forum as well...

nice work.

This bird is still snake bit. Lots of peddling chasing yellows yesterday - I think I set a new personal record for miles peddled in a half day. Seems like everytime I come back from a long day of GETTING SKUNKED out there I get to see a post by Josh of another fish he has caught! Well done! Nice fish as usual. In my next life, I will surf every day and fish whenever I want - and get paid to do it!!!!

blitzburgh · 04-20-2012, 05:54 AM

HOLY CRAP NICE FEEESH! I want to be a pelican desperately! For now, I guess I'm a Crow?

Many of us can't spend 8-15 hours a day sitting on a piece of tupperware looking to hook a fish. For those of you that can, congrats on your independent wealth. I don;t have to worry about you responing because you are still out there fishing and won't have time to read this.

Those many of us that fuel, maintain, or guide the engine that is this country remain at our posts performing the tasks required and viewing the boards periodically.

Congrats on the fish and having the considerable time to put in to catch it.

Definitely had to read that post a few times to make total sense of it, but as I read through it a few times it begins to make sense. You can certainly see cliques within the circle. While I don't know everybody who posts on here and fishes out there, I have had the pleasure of meeting a solid group in the short time I've lived her.

For the most part, I've met great people willing to help. Others, with an attitude leaning toward "Figure it out yourself" or people with hear/say all the time

It's all a matter of what type of bird you want to surround yourself by.

The rumor mill has got me going on the water a lot more than normal this weekend, but not because of the hype associated with it. I've been around long enough to know the internet is 90% bs. So what if there were 15 YT on Tuesday, doesn't mean there are 15 YT today or tomorrow. But, I at least got out to find out for myself. I find that I'm a pelican at heart, but it takes time being a cormorant too. If that makes sense?

When I started surfing, I paddled into the biggest group I could find and talked to every surfer I could meet. How do I do this, how do I do that. Meanwhile I'm too busy chatting and reading and figuring out which board is better than that other, that I missed all the waves. After my time as a cormorant were finished, or the phase passed, I became a pelican of surfing. On the water everyday, paddling into any wave that scared me. One day I became a surfer. 15 years later, I'm a cormorant again. But not in my own eyes, but in the eyes of other cormorant. They view me as a social bird, someone they can come up to, ask a few pointers, stuff that like. So I play the role of a cormorant, but am a pelican at heart when it comes to my surfing.

That's a lot to digest =)

Nice fish
