YEA FISH! I was out there, we got skunked haha. That wind was fucking crazy! We went south in front of the condo's before calling it quits. I could only make spanish macs and none of them seemed like they wanted to swim. Alex got a nice one. The wind wouldn't allow us to move faster than .5mph south. I saw a few great boils and got bumped on the iron but no connections. Next time ....

Stoked on the release! Congrats again!

I started out with only 8 spanish and then got 4 large (10" greenies) just west of the kelp and about 35 feet down. I wished I had started south first, because when the wind kicked up it was blowing straight north and could have helped coming back it. I kept trying to head south and fighting the wind and chop straight on and could only manage .5mph on normal paddle and 1.0 mph if I paddled real hard. The wind was so fucking bad it changed the incoming swell from going east into part of the north bound chop. white caps and waves breaking over the side of the kayak. I had to put on my splash gear so I wouldn't get soaked and cold. All in all it still beats the best day at work. HA HA HA
