Fishing Newport Harbor - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Rocketfish · 11-11-2016, 04:36 PM

I was thinking of yak fishing around the bait barge soon. I vaguely recall some reports about this general area and how the fishing can be decent. I'm more concerned with the traffic there, however. Does it get pretty crazy on the weekend? If I were to stay in the "center" between the jetties, would I be safe from the in and out traffic that I'm expecting to see? Also, I was going to try my go to 3" big hammer swim baits with some sort of scent. Think that'll work ok?
