Quit Wishin'..Go Fishin'.. - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

wade · 02-27-2013, 12:15 PM

Are the

reports still boring you, or has everyone earned their fifties for the year?...

In my day, we didn't have any of those googles's maps, so me and the boys would canvass every mountainside, valley, river, stream and sewer on foot and hoof it across every golf course known to man within a two hundred mile radius..
Several decades later & I'm still at it..Me and my new buddy Jarrod have been livin' it up reminiscent of my old school ways just short of when I would give a knock on a complete strangers door, politely asking to barge their backyard pond..
Weather has been good, so heres a few shots of the release action.....

Was that caught outside the Harbor?
