9/28 north of the pier - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Iceman · 09-28-2005, 01:33 PM

Beautiful sunny morning. Surf was up a little, water felt cold, managed to get out with just my knees wet. Breeze was never more than 4 kts out of the NE. Made some greenbacks, picked and chose a few smaller ones. Put one on the bottom and moved around, tossing a swimbait here and there. Saw some bait on the surface later on and cast out hoping for a "lucky sardine" Pulled in a nice big sardine and a greenback. Put the dine in the tank and as I was unhooking the greenie I heard a "bloop" and looking over the side I saw a shiny scale in the water, that was a very "lucky sardine" Changed out the grenback a few times, but nothing to show for it. I found redtide off of Blacks, so spent most of my morning around the pier working from 25-80 feet por nada. Full limits of serenity and solitude. I'll be back for more next Monday.

Seems like this chilly water has put the kibosh on the bite. May try to get out tomorrow or Fri am, but I'm not very optimistic considering the reports. Anyone hooping LJ opening night?

i'll take you up on your offer on Monday, dark and early!
i'll drop in on your limits of serenity and solitude, we'll start a bite and you'll babysit me on my maiden voyage!

don't you hate that when the candy bait jumps out of the tank or when they fall off the sabiki before you grab them!!
it's funny how fast we react when we see a greenie on a sabiki and how we don't share the same affection for the poor spanish macks!
those poor spanish macks deserve a tribute for all they've provide us!! they get no respect!
