I WISH!!!!

LJ = 0 - 6

Thanks for watching

Another 0-fer for me too... two starry rock fish and about a half-dozen macks...
Don't worry everyone... they were all released unharmed.

Oh, p.s. almost got a citation today from the Lifeguards because we drove our vehicle south of the boat launch. Apparently the "boat launch" is north of the wood fence-like structure. Told me that "normally it's a citation".
Be careful!

I'm trying as hard as I can but she doesn't want to cooperate.

jorluivil · 04-10-2011, 04:53 PM

I considered doing the same because of where we landed but decided against it....Guess I guessed right.

There was some huge breakers this morning, Uno, Dos, Tres

paddle you arse off!!!!

I tried my landing technique again...............once I got close to where the waves were cresting I turned the yak around and paddled backwards while I watched what was about to come next. Took two waves slightly over the bow with no consequences, landed, exited the yak and starting pulling her out of the water.

Lots of yaks got flipped today

....and I'm not talkin-bout rentals.

You did the right thing. I see too many kayakers try to surf and land.
Once you figure out that your trying to land and not surf, you will never
flip again.

absolutely - even fishing from a surfboard, when coming in, land it, don't surf it! you'll save all your gear.

Let's see 6 trips = 2 hours driving plus 6-8 hours on the water
times 6 trips (60hrs).

Only one thing to do when your 0-6.

Call 800 DRK-HORSE

Do the math...

wiredantz · 04-11-2011, 05:22 PM

60hours!!!! don't forget gas money

I called....just saving up some mula for the session. I don't spend much when going to LJ, last two trips have cost me $60, it helps when you have a carpool buddy. Additionally, if you're going to look at how much fishing cost than it's probably not for you. When I was a private boat owner I invested over $15K in a boat that cost me $18k, did I catch $33K worth of fish, nope....not even close.

wiredantz · 04-11-2011, 08:20 PM

My kayak is just like when i use to fly remote control helicopters. BOOM i crashed. more money on parts... BOOM!!! i crashed time to upgrade some parts. Kayak fishing you got to love it.

Either pay to be trained or lose more money doing it the hard way.

THE DARKHORSE · 04-12-2011, 04:07 PM

While it's often been said that my service is cheaper than gas, honestly, I prefer that my clients fish their heart out for a few seasons first. Contrary to popular belief, I agree 100% that nothing compares to finally catching that trophy fish, on your own; after spending plenty of time searching the ocean. I wouldn't take that feeling of discovery from anyone as it's pretty special. One thing's for sure, the longer you spend on your own, the more you'll appreciate the service I provide.

Besides, La Jolla and I aren't going anywhere. After a few seasons of putting in the work on your own, stimulating the economy via gas and such---as they say, I'll leave the light on for ya'.
