Redondo - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

jorluivil · 07-31-2014, 08:40 PM

Fished Redondo today with the 80's Man. Arrived in the weeeeee hours, launched in the dark and got to the bait grounds just before sunrise, made some bait and off we went. The winds and swellllllllll were up, way up, it was hard for me to hold my position in my PA so I can't imagine was it was like for Rob who was on a paddle kayak. I'm thinking that my 8oz sinker spent more time off the bottom than it did on the bottom.

I'm not in the mood to right a full report so here's the short one

Here's a quick video of the swell.

I may have put a little extra chum out just to help make bait,(the greenies really seem to like peanut butter and jelly on five seed bread).

But, I'm not admitting anything!!!!

Sounds like you guys deserve props for trying!

You knew what you were getting into but tried anyway. When I can't keep an 8 oz. sinker on the bottom it's time to go!

At least you got on the water!

Despite the conditions I tried until almost noon and ended up with nothing but a fat sandbass
