We stayed the weekend at the LJ Shores Hotel. I brought along my kayak and minimal gear, just glad to get on the water. The launch was a breeze as the tide was way out. I brought a surface iron outfit, a lucanus outfit- Vendetta rod and calcutta and a Toro with a brand new Quantum Kayak rod. The surface iron caught nada, the quantum caught kelp and lost my megabait and the Vendetta
caught two really nice sandbass. I'm guessing one at four pounds and one at around 5+ pounds. I think I found a sandie spawning ground, they were from 50' to 120' in the area where they were caught. I gave them to a group of guys from north of here to go along with the Hali they caught. Nice pull on the vendetta rod.
Paddle back was brutal, wind and current was strong. It was a blast anyway. The surf was mixed with easy sets and some 4 footer sets. I managed to time it perfect and came in totaly dry. Many that came in wern't that lucky. My wife and I spent a good part of the day sitting on our 2nd floor balcony drinks in hand ,guessing which tourist yakker
was going to flip and get clocked in the head.
Great way and place to spend a staycation.
