Hi Everyone! New Member - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

The Freediver · 07-30-2011, 11:59 AM

Hey, how's everyone doing? I decided to finally stop lurking on here and join. Mainly because I had some questions about the Moyer tourney, but also maybe to make some new friends and read and share some reports.

I don't kayak fish anymore, but I have an infatable and see many of you from time to time down at the shores and probably out on the water too. Be good to put faces with the names at some point. I R&R fished since I was 3 years old until about 4 years ago when I switched to almost all freedive spearfishing. I am as passionate about freediving as many of you are about kayak fishing. I used to kayak fish as well and really loved it before I started diving.

Anyways, I look forward to learning from you guys and some girls too I've noticed

and doing my best to contribute to your forum from time to time as well. Even though I don't R&R fish much any more the eyes of a freediving can be very valuble to someone above the water.

Oh, my name is Ben BTW and I have a grey 13 ft Inflatable if you happen to see me come say hi.

Here are some of my very amateur videos if you care to see.

Cool videos. I thought Baja had clearer water.
Interesting to see the halibut's in their surroundings.

Thanks guys.

I also hoped for clearer water, but made due with what we had. The abundance of life there is unbelievable and makes up for the poor viz we had. There were a couple of times that we had better viz, but mostly crap. Plenty of yellowtail at 50ft, but I was more concerned about taking home some Cabrilla to eat
