Dana Point Sunday 8/28 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

On the water around 6. Launched from baby beach.

Headed out the harbor along the big break wall. Nabbed a spottie on the way out trolling a deeper diving repala, which was a first for me catching one on a lure like that.

Don't have a fish finder so we were just cruising around for signs of rocky bottom or kelp. Headed to the red bouy then sw from there a few hundred yards. Maybe 500 yards max and noticed the swells were having a deeper trough and saw some of that red crab grass type stuff floating. Water changed color a bit to so figured we would give it a go. First cast got a calico on the sink with a zoom fluke on a sled head. Got one more before repositioning. Made two more drifts over that spot for 6 calicos total and one lost right at the yak.

All fish released.

Had to be home before noon so tooled around in the harbor for a bit with no luck and bounced by 11ish.
