leopard sharks look like halibut - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

at least when they roll over and show that white belly, and the sun is setting so the world is like 99% glare and you can't see more than 6" under water.

The rest of the time, not so much. I'm glad I got it to the surface though. Fishing 20# down low can lead to break offs, and break offs lead to wondering. Releasing a loser sure beats getting chewed off.

Anyways, bait rough to find for the sunset session yesterday. Had good luck snagging some candybars as their school came rushing through in like 85-90' of water.

Other than that False Halibut, nothing doing. Got to see a pretty sunset though.

Is my fishfinder off, or did I read 75 degree SST yesterday? It sure FELT like it when I stuck my hand in the water. If I had a day off to burn, I'd be thinking about YFT midweek.

Maybe I'd be thinking wrong, but I'd at least be thinking.
