first time fishing
Well boys and girls. Yesterday was my first time fishing off the kayak. launched from malibu pier and paddled out just for a nice work out for 20 min. Then i went for the kelp. Been working the kelp for 2 hours or so and nothing. Just once i seen a fish go for the lure almost at the top but never seen it again. Then i went closer to the rocks seen lots of bait. At one point i throw the lure in and bammmmm. The rod bends and i got a fish on the other end. Shortly after i got it in the kayak. It was about 2lb and a little over 12in. but im not sure if it was rockfish or not. Not to take a chance i just kicked i back out. Didnt want to take a chance. Still trying to figure out the rules what i can and cant keep. The DFG site is hard to figure out for a newbe. Over all it was lots of fun. I learned what i didnt like on how i set it up and a few things i would like to do to make it more fun.. Only reason i came back was some real heavy fog that settled down. With in a few min i couldnt see the shore line. I could see the pier only when i came right on top it on the way back. Already planning on my next fishing trip.
