Bait is back - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Well, somebody must have been wishing for the bait to return to LJ a little bit too strong. Not only were the Greenies back, but the Sardines and Red Crabs were back in force this weekend. Found a bunch of fast moving schools of good sized Macks on the bottom in the 100 - 120' zone. Bunch of Dolphins and Whales were taking part in the festivities too. And about 10,000 birds. Water was a bit milky, but not too bad for just after the storm. Water temps around 61 degrees still. There was no beach to launch from Saturday or Sunday with the high tides in the morning. Mixed up surf was fun to launch in both days. Landings were child's play, but about 100yds from where the launch was. I went 0 for about 10 solid bites on the weekend. Would have had some good video, on a couple of those bites, if the visibility was better than 8'.
