Dana Point, 11-27 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

PapaDave · 11-28-2011, 10:08 PM

Water calm, slight breeze from the north, current running south. Water temp about 68 +/-. Drifted a live sardine on the bottom around the kelp and picked up this guy. I really like the room the PA has for unexpected visitors... 40 inches, 28.5 lbs.

Nice catch! 68 degree water in November! Might want to calibrate that thing. I found that if it reads 98.6 degrees i need to take it off my seat

Holy crap Mark, slow down on the obvious post count padding!

that is more than 3 per year!

StinkyMatt · 11-29-2011, 02:17 PM

Excellent catch there.

I was thinking that Halibut migrate south for the winter! I already put my kayak away.

I like the trend....so in the next three days we'll expect a halibut from you that weighs 40lbs.

Limits · 11-29-2011, 09:43 PM

Andy, You know I like to just watch! I'll try and bump my average up to 5 per year.
