Funny in a sick sort of way.... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I've done that before, surprised it doesn't happen more often, really. I'm betting you got one hell of a bird's nest on that one.

Yep, huge backlash. It was at the part of the cast where I was using practically no thumb thinking it was gonna fly a lot farther, then BAM, WTF! Funny as hell. A little revenge from when those birds crap on my yak while searching for food when I have landed and am getting my car.

I did that from my friends boat at the Nados. It was a Commarant. I tied on a Tady C, first cast...BOOM

bird dead, jig gone!

I watched a young cormorant dive down and eat my deadstick iron --I figured it wouldn't be that dumb. I unhooked him and he swam right over to CaboJohn where it ate and then was hooked twice consecutively on 'dines.

Give them a break, they aren't that smart to begin with.

Twice in a row! That really is a dumb bird!lolSo where did that seagull in Andy's Avatar get his brains? Probably one hit with an Iron and it knocked some sense into him.lol

Catching birds sucks! I got 2 pelicans in one cast from the skiff on Sat. Lassoed one with the line & hooked the other in the wing. Funny shit, unless you're a pelican.

One of them bit Todd on the arm as we were unhooking him. Scared the crap out of him.

Can you imagine a sabiki full of pelicans?
Sucks to be birds too.
