Newport 4-1-17 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

blitzburgh · 04-03-2017, 08:57 AM

Got out on Saturday for some rock action. Wind laid down nice from days prior and air temp and visibility in general was great. Water temp was 58.6 on my finder. The fish are definitely deeper this time of year. Everything I metered in larger schools was in a min of 200'. All of my shallower spots were vacant. Once I found a school of smaller grade reds, it was quick work with limits in about 45 minutes. Poked around afterward marking future structure to check out and just enjoyed the scenery.

NICE!

I think I need to stop looking for a flatty and target these. That way I don't get the dreadful "did you catch anything?" from my gf or kids and me having to say no lol

But then again these might not be easy to find
