CASH Jackpot 2/2/08 LaJolla - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

FISHIONADO · 02-03-2008, 09:24 AM

Thanks for putting it together Art. I soaked one on the bottom and one with a 2oz slider around the pier for a while, then up to Blacks, followed the canyon edge towards the NW corner, then followed the kelp line back in, I never got a bite or even a raked bait.

I had a thrill launching in the dark, wasn't paying enough attention, not enough respect. I made it out through the first swells and backed off because I thought I was clear, then saw several dark swells in deeper water. Paddled hard and made it over the biggest one with my bow pointed at the sky. The swells were big enough that it was scary at the very end of the pier during high tide.

Good thing I'm not a subsistence fisherman.

Hey guys, it was definately god to be back out there.
My primary goal was to get some squid and batter it in beer. Chtis's squid looked really good.
It was kinda sketchy coming back in since I had not done a beach landing in who knows how long, but I timed it well. Did see one guy in a tandem flipped on his way out though.

Still got your $20 - your name is on it so you are good to go.

I watched you launch as I was walking back to the beach from the lot. Did you have your head lamp on? That was a wet one.

Looks I'm thinking 3/8 rightin time for the WSB.
