Newport Late Report 04/18/14 Good Friday
Wrong section... need this to be move into the fishing report...
Me and a buddy arrive at the launch site @ 0600 and launch out 0630. Conitions were cloudy, water temp 60 degrees, swell 1 to 3 ft, minor wind about 5 mph Meet a few other kayakers out there today total count was 7. Got out to the fishing spot by 7ish and saw no one had bites for a good hour. paddle around and hooked up a double rockfish by 0845. Good day to be out in the water but the bites is slow as we saw other kayakers leaving into the harbor by 10AM. We fish the outside till 1140 and then head into the harbor as the wind started picking. We worked the harbor for a good hour and my buddy landed a nice 19"spotted bass. Called it a day at 1330. Fish count 9 rockfish 2 sand dabs 1 spotted sea bass 1 croaker Last edited by Rambo; 04-19-2014 at 09:17 AM. Reason: wrong section |

To each their own I guess but now I know why np spottie fishing is getting spotty
How is it btw I've heard it's tough and gross to tender and sweet... I just don't know if I want to eat all the pollutants from a fish that never leaves the harbor |

In all actuality, I seriously doubt recreational fisherman taking a legal spotty here and there will impact their population. I think an increase in natural predators and funky weather patterns is more to blame for the rough fishing. I had spotty one time. When a fish I caught wasn't going to make it. I didn't like it at all. Tasted like mud in my opinion. But I also don't like tilapia or catfish and there are people that love it. To each their own.

The meat is more firm versus the flakiness in the ordinary steam fish recipe and in order to remove the fishiness you gotta add a few herbs. My buddy does this with the bass, Sand bass are much better in taste in my opinion.
