Stillwater Cove Monterey 11.29.2019 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Mikey Likes It · 12-05-2019, 05:37 PM

Epic morning day after Thanksgiving November 29th 2019 kayak fishing off my Ocean Kayak Trident 13 out of Stillwater Cove in Monterey California. Cold 42°F outside temperature at the morning launch which is located on the Pebble Beach golf course. I met some fellow friendly kayakers who let me tag along with them. Started deep in 200 plus feet of water with a Joe's Jigs Purple Octopus Jig where I caught the Starry Eye, Vermillion and short Lingcod. Then I lost the Joe's Jigs to a bottom snag and switched to a large shimano flat fall glow in the dark and caught the mixed bag of blue, brown and copper rockfish. All fish caught on Penn lever drag and Shakespeare Ugly stick rod from Squidco Tackle shop in San Diego. We filleted the fish and made Brazilian fish stew with it. I am so blessed to live in a world where I get to experience amazing things like fishing Stillwater Cove. Shotout to Edub Outdoors as the first person to tell me about this special place.

ThatÂ’s a cool spot. Try in shallow to the right next time some high spots - big Lings. Got some crazy spots in Big Sur if you want to hit it up. Cool video!
