1/27 MDR - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Had an awesome 1st time experience Saturday. Found the gps coordinates for the reefs and set out for it at 7am. Kinda found the area as I have no real idea what to look for on my fish finder. So once it went from flat bottom to all kinds of stuff on screen then I guessed I was there. So tossed swimbaits and landed a PB sand bass within minutes. (I'll try to post pics) Few mins later hooked up on a nice Calico. But then wind hit hard and I couldn't find the spot again as I kept drifting further out to sea. Headed back to fish breakwall as I was the only craft out there lol. Caught several small calicos on the inside of wall, then caught 1 keeper calico which I kept for dinner. Wind died down and I was tempted to go back to reef, but headed back in to fish the reef another day. But fun didn't stop there as I tossed 3" swim baits around docs and caught PB spotty! Also caught more small spotty before I called it. I found my new fishing spot for sure.
