La Jolla search for Yellowtail on the SOLO SKIFF 9-15-2020

Nice. There were some birds working the surface hard but I couldn’t get out to them before they broke up. I think I saw you take a run at them as well.

I’ll be back out next Tuesday. Hopefully get some Yellowtail to bite.

Yes the bird action at a distance is one of the reasons I got the Solo Skiff. On my kayaks, even my Hobie Revo I sold it would take a few minute to 20 minutes depending on how far away they were. Some times after that hard work, you'd get there to find it was Sea Lions playing with their catch. Now I can check the action out in a very short time. The other day it was bait and that helped but there was no love from the Yellowtail. Being able to cover more water and not fight the wind and current, while trolling at higher speeds is a game changer. The other advantage I had not considered before getting the Solo was how the outboard makes surf launching and landing easier. I'll be there again Monday or Tuesday, not sure which yet. I try to go at least once a week.
