heres my report, i finally got out on tuesday morning. I launched from shelter island around 7 am and made my way across the channel. I tried to make some bait around the old jetty but could only scratch up one massive jack smelt. So I was back to throwing plastics. First cast was a 13" hali, then another hali a little smaller. I was hoping mom was home but no luck. I made my way back across the channel and hit up the south end of the SI. That area has been my go to hali spot over the years and heard a report of nice fish hooked earlier in the day. that was the last of my halibut hopes, it was spotty central the rest of the day. I was fishing 6lb test on my trout rod and having a blast. I was also able to sneak out later that night to hit up glorietta bay for some night bassin. The jackson cud a was a dream to paddle. all day comfort in the seat department, glides like a dream, and has a built in butter holder! After years in malibu's and ocean kayaks the jackson is a speed machine.
