7/14 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Matt · 07-15-2009, 04:43 AM

Well got the day off of work so I decided to head on out and do some fishing. Paddled on out through some thumpier than expected surf, got a little wet while waiting to paddle on out but timed the sets just right and punched through just before the bigger set rolled on in and anihilated those just behind me....felt bad but was pretty stoked it wasn't me

Made some dines and some greenies pretty quickly and the first dine on the low rig go off shortly after making him. Heard the clicker scream and then stop and then scream again and immediately knew it was a T shark. On the second scream I saw a fiddyish T shark start grey hounding and then put on one of the best aerial displays I have ever seen!! 3 huge airs, and I do mean huge, this little dude was going for the gold!! He cut the line at the hook about 5 mins or less into the fight, definitely was fun seeing him go huge but glad he broke off and swam off to fight another day.

Fished for the next 6ish hours only for some nervous bait, and one boil up top that had me hucking my Ulua all por nada. Soon enough it will turn on again.

Water was really green, with alot of crap floating around, however the water temp is back up also, which makes waders an option should you want to trunk it!

Good luck to all!!!
