Awesome. I'm seriously thinking about playing hooky on Friday and paddling out there. Forecast seems to be pretty consistent all week. Dead calm early AM, wind around 10/11....

Nice post!! Each time I've gone out there current kept pulling me out of the zone. I do like that area fishing even in the marina. Damn that party boat was loaded!

Definitely a challenge staying in the zone and getting a fairly light lure down on the marks when the current is moving. I've experimented with heavier lures but I get more bites on the 3/4 oz.
That boat was entirely filled with kids and Dads having fun so I didn't let the captain know what I thought of him. Future kayak fishermen. Probably a private charter. |

This would solve your staying on the spot issue, but your second issue is fish like to feed when the current is ripping. IMO this is because bigger fish have an advantage over smaller fish in strong currents, also because the current moves food across the reef/structure. Additionally I feel that current runs more water through the fishes gills which oxygenates their blood giving them more energy.

Totally agree. Big ones bite better when the tide/current is really pushing.
