Quick trip to MDR reefs - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Snags · 01-18-2018, 12:28 PM

Launched at first light this morning to calm winds and pretty big long period swell. A shit load of garbage floating around the marina from last week's storm so I headed offshore to the AR.

Hooked up on the first drop and the bite continued for about an hour or so. Lots of bait out there.
Ended up with 7 Calicos - released . 2 of them were fat 20 inchers. All fish caught on 3/4 oz. underspin in redneck shad. Swell started building so I called it a day. Back to the launch by 10.

Welcome to the early morning bite in the open ocean.

I'm typically out on the water right at safelight, but almost never can get myself back in before 3ish.

I do that whole "ok, last cast" dance for about an hour and a half before finally giving into reality. LOL
