LJ 9/2 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Phishphood · 09-03-2016, 03:18 PM

Headed out yesterday to try for yt. Couldn't make bait because I couldn't find it. Seemed like folks with electronics had some better luck. Ended up hooking about 8 Bonito throughout the day. Tried slow trolling the smallest one but it was still bigger than the biggest Mac I've seen. Ended up having a dog take it down. Went back in trying for more bait but gave up. Played around with some short bass and a few scutes. Not much else to report.

Thanks for the report. I have hit the macs in about 50 feet. Small size sabiki might help too. The beauty of fishing

Those Bonita hit on lures?

I feel for you, bait was tough to get. Those that did get some did have some luck out there.

Aaron that was me in the orange yak talking to you when you landed.

Infidel- hooked them on frozen sardines, crocodile, and a sabiki I put together using little micro jigs like for panfish
