The Jinx is gone! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

BT · 11-08-2010, 03:14 AM

Paddled out today to my spot so set out my hoops. You see the jinx is every year, I will get 5, then 4, then 3, then 2, then 1, then none there for the rest of the year at this spot!

I saw the crazy tide change and no moon so after the Chargers won, I decided to Charge it myself.

First two strings of 5 nets produced four keepers, the jinx was gone because I caught 2 the other night. Then the tide slacked off a bit and the crawl stopped. Later when the tide kicked into low, it was one keeper for every string. Got my limits, and took em home.

Meet a nice guy on a float tube who was from bloody decks. He saved my life because I forgot a pen to fill in the lobster card. I did the happy paddle into the launch at around 1130.

Three of em were solid keepers, the other four were good , with one that just make it.

Is there a chance anyone has time for a novice hooper. Plenty of yak skills so no need to babysit just clueless about the lobster thing. I have my report card, 2 new hoopnet setups, measuring device, and BEER

That is awesome! I've been out twice and gotten 44 shorts and an eel.

Well done.
