Sluggin'

[Dannowar]

very little kayak traffic today, in fact only saw two others. Pierre and I launched at dark planning on hitting some productive rockfish reefs to try and jig some mossies. Worked a solid ridge all morning for nada, didn't see any of the 6 PBs hook up either. Made our way to another solid reef on the inside and my FF was stacked with yellow squiggles. armed with only two poles and a gaggle of heavies, we began to wind our sore arms into oblivion.

nice little school with many big models, hooked a bunch, lost a majority to the thick bull kelp. took me 25 minutes to free this shouldery toad from the bull, but after some strategic toying and the help of a sea lion, managed to pop him off.

Haven't been hook and line fishing in a while as I've been mostly diving, but i think i sparked my fishing stoke a wee bit.


what a gorgeous day on the water. wind was dead and the sun was out. Very blessed to have LJ in my backyard
