what's up at dana point today? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

DanaPT · 01-16-2015, 09:27 AM

Used my spotting scope and outside the harbor I spy what appears to be about 40 boats all different sizes pretty well clustered but spread out in a general area. Either whales or WFO fish bite?

anyone know?

so bummed today isn't my day to fish.

I can tell you its not whales! Look at the dana wharf fishing reports and you will know exactly why they are there....

This is that Box Canyon bite that's been steady for a while now

It would be quite a spotting scope to see box Canyon from Dana Point

Ya I think box canyon is quite a bit south of Dana. But there were about the same number of boats on box today. Could see from red beach on camp pendleton.

grabbed the VHF... it was whales. A lot of them w/ pods of dolphins. Radio chatter was all about how clear it was and how many greys that were fluke-ing? not sure but I think that means showing off their tails.

Who needs cattle boats when you have the U.S.S. YAK (Yellowtail Attack Kayak!).

Look for a yak report some time tomorrow!

Nice! I'm going with someone who got the trip for a Bday present, and he doesn't have a kayak.

I'm doing the kayak thing this weekend, hope to get something
