Newport 7/21/2013 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Launched at 6:00 with Jon and met "Chris" another BWE fisherman while we were launching. We headed out to the bait barge and got some big deans.
Then we went out of the harbor and about 1/2 way to the kelp. Dropped a bait to the bottom and waited about 20 minutes before I tied into the biggest dorado I have ever seen.......OK thats bullshit. I caught a 3ft shovelnose.
We messed around there for an hour then Jon hooked a 25lb mud marlin that gave a good fight and got his adrenaline pumping.
We then worked our way over to the CDM kelp and killed the skunk for Chris with a small leopard shark.
3 for 3 outside the harbor before heading back into the bay. Chris hooks a little hammer handle cuda by the bait barge and we call it a day.
Not an epic day, but any day above ground is a good one, and if you are on the water it's even better.

Fish on Brothers!

Chris it was a pleasure meeting you. I look forward to catching up with you again.
