South Bay Report - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Good to see you out there Jeff. And my kayak didn't sink on the way back to the launch.

No live bait in the So Bay but you can, usually, snag, sibiki, or umbrella net smelt. Years ago I used to put the little double cone minnow traps in the tidal creeks in national city and caught plenty of killi fish/mosquito fish/mud minnows-what ever you want to can them. They worked pretty well.

Corvina are tasty fish, like weak fish on the east coast. Bone fish definitely are CnR. Mike
