Newport, 8-13-15 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Landwhale and I launched at 6:30 to clear skies and a light south wind. Water was gin clear, but as my FF battery was dead I don't know what the temp was. Decent current for the first couple of hours, though it didn't help me any. I was hoping for redemption after last weeks poor performance. Alas, it wasn't to be. I finished the day with 4 fish. UGHH!. Steve did better. I fished multiple colors and it didn't help a bit. Hot Sauce helped get the bites, but I just couldn't stick 'em. Then the current died and everything shut down. Off the water by 10:30.

Oh well, next week we're hitting Dana Pt. and hopefully it'll be better.

look forward to your next dana pt report.

I'm thinking the bass fishing ought to be good. just haven't done it in a while.

We actually fished the Pipe a couple of weeks ago. Nothing out deeper, but we eventually found some in shallow. We're thinking we'll fish Capo next week and hopefully find some biters in tight.
