Dana point off shore.

Well maybe not as far as some but further than I've been on my kayak. I was loaded up and on the water by 440 am. 3 boats in line for bait 2 from dana wharf and 1 PB. I did not buy bait but tried to catch a couple macs at the barge. No luck. Trolled sabiki on my way out for nothing.

At the headlands at 550. Caught 1 mac but lost it screwing around trying to prime bait tank. 1 caught CA Selma. Nothing else. Bummer. Figured I had flatfalls so off I went in a north west direction.

In 100 ft of water noticed bait and Mark's on FF. drop sabiki for 1 mac. Hooked it up and off I went.

Sunrise was amazing. No signs of life, except brief encounter with small pod of dolphins, no kelp paddys. At 930 turned back. Swell was short period and a lot of texture on water. Hard to see anything, it all looked like floating kelp.

Went back to headlands. On the way birds working water but moving way too fast, same 100ft depth. Dropped flat fall on a mark and caught macs.

Hindsight, shoulda worked the are with life when I saw it at 6 am. Using the GPS coordinates about 5 miles out and back for another skunk.

Wind non issue but picked up at 11 am blowing south. Water 76.5 degrees out there but 72 near shore.

Now back to work, sore and tired.
