7/1 No Tuna Consolation - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Iceman · 07-02-2015, 09:40 AM

5 of us ventured out 8 miles yesterday in search of BFT or YFT. After making bait we headed out passing a guy gaffing a 6am YT, we did not even put a bait in the water until we were 6 miles out. We found some small paddies and had some porpoise roll through. Some fin back whales feeding, no love, fun effort and perfect conditions with light winds and cloud cover most of the time. I figured the YT would be waiting for us on the way in and luckily I was right

Cool dolphin stampede in the middle of this BENDO. I was surprised this was only a 12 pounder, had some extra fight in it (or I was really fricken tired) right up to the gaff.

Nice attempt Andy! Better than getting skunked, that's for sure!

When are you going to try it again ?

You guys will get them soon! Keep it up!

Thanks for the edit. I couldnt concentrate.

As long as those chovy balls are around the tuna will hang around. Still time.

Evidently you were one day early, if you were a procrastinator you would have got one today!
