Islander Report. 6/7/08 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

tylerdurden · 06-09-2008, 06:53 AM

Not much to add. Thanks again to the Islander, crew and cook. They were awesome again. Also thanks to the great group on board, makes the trip that much better. Some good fish caught with a few lost. Let's see the pics Josh

. It sounds like a few yt, wsb, or bsb were hooked but none made it aborad. Like everyone else said if the wind is down we could cover a lot more ground. The 8-12'

swells just added some extra excitement.

Toni and I found a couple of boni up at the north end. He farmed one at the boat and I released mine. We left because the wind pushing us out to sea and the swell bufffeting us around was just too exhausting. When we found that the fishing was slow everywhere, Scott and I paddled back up there after lunch por nada. Still, it was a great trip. The crew was AWESOME and the food OUTSTANDING!

Thanks for the report. Sorry the weather didn't cooperate for you. Looks like a totally fishy place and the Islander crew and outfit look first class. I'm on one of these trips for sure next year!

I tried heading outside early, there were a lot of scattered birds working out there, and I got picked up on a weighted sardine, felt like the right kind, but the hook didn't stick, could of just been a big bonie though, I worked the same area for a half hour or so, for nothing else, saw a sealion tearing up a small mola. Anyways, the wind was so bad I deciced to join everyone else in the sheltered area between the two islands. Seemed like a place that could be really good under better conditions, I would go back, especially with the Islander crew. The sport fleet out of Ensenada was set up between south island and punta banda, I'm sure that's where the yellows were, we just couldn't get there. At least it was a good group of guys on the boat and the beers were cold.
