Wind Smind!!!

Fished Irvine with the boys of mayhem. Last night I was convinced to stay away from the ocean and to gamble on some fresh water fishing, glad I agreed because from what I heard Long Beach was completely blown out. Ended the day with three keepers, biggest was 18inches long, released a dink, lost one as I was about to put it on the stringer and lost another at the boat.

The weather was amazing, we had the occasional wind gust but it would only last a minute or so, it was pretty weird how it would start blowing and almost as fast as it started it would just die down, no wind at all.

I fished Seal Today was only about 1 - 2 footers when I launched around 730-ish fished the south side of the HH entrance nothing wanted to bite. Started my trek back in around 10:30 swells were building and by the time I reached the south end of Seal there was no way I was going to make it in. total close out sets at way too fast of an intervals, went to the north side, about the time I got there Sheriff Pb offers to take me back to the HH. I asked him, WTF I'm supposed to then, walk back to my truck parked at seal, no thanks I'll take my chances and paddle in. Timed it right peddled and paddled my ass off, got into 3 feet of water hoped out only to have a wave crash over the back of the yak, only lost my beenie.

Irvine looks so calm, tranquil, peaceful...

DP on the other hand was the nastiest I've seen it. Took my PA out into 10+ foot swells, 20-30 knot wind and 2+ foot wind waves. Got out to the pipe, made a practice drift, looked at the ocean, decided to go back in. Pa handled it well though.

Even the harbor had whitecaps and the swells were breaking over the jetty.

The olive outback looks familiar, I'm sure I saw you out there yesterday! I should have snapped some pics of you guys. I saw at least 2 PA's, 3 Outbacks and a handful of traditional paddlers on the water yesterday. Not sure how many other BWE members were out there yesterday?

I ended up chatting with Alfonso, a new Pro Angler owner. He said he rolled up on you guys thinking you were me. LOL We'll have to get setup a BWE event at the Vine one day.

Yeah, I remember Al, i believe he was the one with the bright orange jacket, we talked and peddled alongside each other for a few minutes. What kayak were you in? Did you end up catching any fish? We gave all of our fish away to some of the less fortunate.

I was in the Ivory Outback, Mango colored PFD, Green bucket hat with the Hobie Livewell er cooler in the back. I spent a good amount of time trolling for no love, but eventually found them in 30-40'. They wanted Powerbait so I picked off 2 to save my day. Gave my 2 fish to a family of 6 who got nothing. Hopefully I made a deposit in the bank of karma.

Yup, that's the same Al out on his second PA trip.
