Barracuda frenzy La Jolla 05/22 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Failed to look at the surf report today so did some crazy surfing in and out. Waves were big and the sets were long and the wave intervals were very short.

Started the morning by going to get bait at scrips peer. No bait around there. Headed out parallel to the MPA back to the point. Chased some birds early throwing irons in 70 ft of water off the point some small hits but not fish. Switched to a mustad tracershot jig and started ripping barracuda. Kept catching them until a cuda took my lure. Then on to the crocodile spoon, every cast there was a cuda. Quality fat cudas all day. Super fun ended with about forty or fifty cudas released amazing day.

PSA: a gentleman lost his drive on the way in and did not find it.
My fishing buddy lost his GoPro if any happens to find it.
