Fred Hall and question for you experts - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Been out at 3am fishing for Cbass in my kayak many times and it is a little scary, esp when I roll up on a seadog thats sleeping and he goes ape shit when I run into them! Any time I've been out doing that there's usually many others all on the same spot. Go with a friend and paddle out together. This being said, i'm not a pro but all the seabass I have caught have always been early morning as the sun is coming up, just my experience.

For the most part I hate fishing in the dark, sensory under load! I don't mind catching in the dark, but in my opinion the best, most consistently productive time to be on the water in a kayak is first light for WSB and YT. Watch the boaters numbers drop like a rock this year as the squid are not looking to be around like they have been.

The less PB the better. I could not be happier! Seems like there are 3 a day that love to charge the kayaks on the water. Been thinking about the best way to discourage them.
