Newport, 5-25-17 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Amish Ed · 05-25-2017, 01:20 PM

Launched with Landwhale about 6:45am. It was cool and cloudy with an onshore breeze that came and went. Water was 61º and relatively clear. We worked the normal areas we always do, and Steve had a kick ass day and I got my butt handed to me. Go figure. He finished off the day with 20 (8 legal), I had a grand total of 3 very small bass.

The culprit, losing my underspin after I got the 3 shorts. Steve got all but 3 of his on the underspin. I lost mine about 20min after we started fishing. I could've borrowed one from Steve, but I was getting bit. I just wasn't getting committed bites. By the time I decided that maybe I should get one from Steve I was so annoyed that I just said screw it and we headed in. That was a little after 10am.

That said, everyone should have some Coolbaits underspins in their box.
