Chief Firewater's Surf wax remover is what we always used for oil and tar remover. I Grew up going to the beach in Galveston, Tx, and our feet would be covered in black tar by the end of the days. Some Chief Firewater and few paper towels and we would be clean to drive home.

Nice catch! Looks to be a chunky 27+". Thanks for report. BTW I grew up in the southbay area and there was "tar" from Redondo to Manhattan beach in the 50's and 60's. Our bare feet would be covered with the sticky stuff and we would use baby oil to get it off. Would that work on cleaning a kayak?
