Castiac Wednesday

[Fiskadoro]

Decided to stay closer to home and fished the x-13 at Castiac Wednesday from opening to closing.

Kind of a weird hazy day, light wind from the South all day but nice on the water.



Metered some suspended fish in deep water and worked them off an on for most of the afternoon. Managed one small stripe on a BBZ-1.



Only bite I had all day only fish I saw caught all day.

Had the place to myself for most of the day, but towards the late afternoon several nice rigs showed up and started fishing around me. Turns out one of them was a local guide with guys from some fishing show. The Other guy was a guide as well, pre-fishing a WON charter.

Neither had landed anything but I heard the first boat with the cameras picked up one fish about seven pounds. They seemed surprised I was out there on a yak, and they were even more surprised I had a fish. Guess they don't see many kayaks there.

Since I figured they knew what they were doing and that if they were there that obviously I was on the right spot: I decided to stay as late as they did, hoping they might go off just before dark.

Almost cost me. I just got out before the wrote tickets, and I did not even tie the Yak down .

When stopped on the hill to tie everything down the lighting was very weird because of the haze, The sun was down but it was still kind of milky white, so I shot this pic of the dam in the twilight.




All an all nothing spectacular but a good time on the water. I'm starting to feel like I'm getting the place dialed in, It's probably just a matter of time before I get into some quality fish there.
