Hasn't that boat been leaking for awhile? I seem to remember an issue at Mission Bay last year.

Good report though, I should have loaded up and gone out. I always kick myself for not going when I could have.

Weather permitting we're thinking Dana for next week. You should join us. And yes, Steve's yak has been leaking a while, but it's getting worse.

Been tryin to patch the cracks in the bottom of the scupper now I'm going to have a patch ove3r the area that will stop the leak.

The fishing was good 15 fish with 4 legal spotties one 1.5lber caught on 1/2oz Coolbaits underspins with Houdini and Redbone Zman Paddles dipped in Uni Butter.

Another fun day fishing with ED nice to see fish moving deeper into the Harbor

You have been fighting those leaks for a long time. I'm trying to think what you can use to seal those leaks up. Have you tried that leak sealer in the can?

Been trying to just fill the cracks they are in the scupper hole right under the seat and my weight is right on top of it going to have another piece of plastic over the area and goop up the inside just didn't want to have a bump on the bottom of the kayak Vanity
