Fishing' the A Rig - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I went outside to fish for halibut yesterday but it turned into "Victory at Sea" in a very short time with limits of wind...!

...so I came back into the harbor and thought I'd try the Alabama Rig for the first time for some bass or maybe a halibut.

I dragged the A rig near the bottom while throwing the 3/8 Hookup Baits...What a fun day...there are a bunch of short Cuda in the harbor and they trashed their share of Hookups and tried to ruin the A rig...LOL... The bass were biting and I had a couple of double hookups on Sandies. Most of the fish were the smaller guys but I did manage one legal.

I'll be adding a couple of those Alabama rigs to my arsenal now...
I ended the day with about a dozen Bass and some Cuda....off the water by 11am and back to work on the Battle of the Bays tourneys...Al in all it was a fun day in the harbor.
See you all Saturday at the tournament...

A Rigs are legal to use in the tourney...
