Slooooooooow at the Jewel - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I was skunked yesterday. Fished from 0445 to 1330. Had many people ask me how I did and they reported the same results as myself. I did not see any hookups and didn't hear any hooting and hollering.

I did see a small thresher tearing through some bait twice. I considered throwing a fly-lined greenie at it, but I wouldn't kill a baby and certainly wasn't interested in dealing with the release of one. Those little ones can come up to the boat quick and are full of piss and vinegar when they do. I am sure getting one to a kayak would take longer wearing them out some, but I was okay with not finding out.

I spoke with a guy I met on the beach who mentioned seeing a much larger model outside of me.
