Another slow day on Mission Bay

[Jacurley45]

Aquahunter and I were at Mission Bay near Mission Park area. We didn't really see any kayak fisherman except for some leaving in morning. Only caught legal spottie and missed some bites as I was tying another rod's hook. Slow day for sure.

I went to Mission Point Park first but the parking lot was full, saw a kayaker loading up to leave but we didn't stop to talk to him. Then I headed over to the beach on the island and launched there. I did see a couple of schools of bait fish jumping so there was something chasing them. Saw a couple of fly fisherman over by OEX and picked up some bites by the walking bridge but we didn't get hooked up with anything. There was a man fishing from the beach when we landed to leave, he had a screamer of a hook up while I was loading up but he was too far from his rod and it was over with by the time he grabbed it. It's a pisser to paddle over the whole danged bay and watch some bank fisherman hook up at the launch point.

Lol. If I got discouraged every time a shore pounder or float tuber out-fished me, I'd have sold my yak by now. Just tell yourself that we're having much more fun.

I love to fish, I don't have to catch fish, I just love being out there. But it's still a pisser to get all the way back to the vehicle to see some shore fisherman get hooked up and then lose it. Must have been a healthy fish the way his reel was screaming.

that head gasket business sucks, don't worry about it though. Get your car fixed and then we'll go fishing.
