Mission Bay Jan 14th - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Harry Hill · 01-13-2016, 09:14 PM

Well boys, I'm going to try the mouth of Mission Bay tomorrow for halibut. It should be an incoming tide all morning so I'm thinking I paddle out and drift back with a squid on a dropper rig. I'm guessing 5 feet tag to sinker and 3 foot leader for the hook using a three way swivel. I don't have any uni butter so it's just the squid. Hopefully the fish will be feeding on a rising tide. Any hints you can think of to help me be more successful?

I don't think so Ed, unless I come across some extra gas money this will be my trip for this week.
