Los Alamitos Bay
I fell asleep and missed Easyday's reply and Newport Beach. So off to Los Alamitos Bay. Got there about 7am and dropped my line over by the jetty. Used dbl dropper rig with cut squid. Caught 5 fish. First was a sand dab. He was small but I was glad to know it was not going to be a skunk day. Next a lizard fish followed by another lizard fish... I just jerked them off my line... well, I didn't jerk them off, you know what I mean. After some time another fish meets my kayak deck. I don't know what it is, will one of you let me know. It had yellow tipped fins. Finally, my last fish was fugly and viscious. Wth is that fish... a snakehead? Anyway... my day didn't measure to the days many of you have, but at least no skunk and I was out on the water.

Airborne Yak... I don't kayak too often (I'm a teacher and on Spring Break), but when I do I will definitely contact you.
Cheap Pelican... the fish I caught is very similar, but without that freaky mouth! It did have those sharp teeth though and every time I stuck my pliers in its mouth to remove the hook it would clamp down hard. I just cut the line near the hook and let it go. |

x3 Jacksmelt - a lot of small bones but tasty pan fried. Top of the list for safe eating fish.
