Dana Pt, 7-10-12 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Up early. get the bait. Paddle north.

The same routine. A great sun-rise but the fog crept in . Light on shore wind from the north. Fished the outside kelp about half-way up strands.

All I got was a short sand bass. Hooked up on a shark that cut through the 20lb flouro like only a shark tooth can.

I a bunch of bait fish in the water, but nothing going on. No dolphins or predator fish from below or bird activity from above.

It was a sad day.

Water was reading 62.

I was at the headlands around 5:15 am and off the water at 11 am (before the wind really kicked up!).
