DP: 1-31-21 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Nothing too crazy to report here. Just a really nice day on the water, great sunrise and a couple fish. Knew it was going to be slow with all the recent rains and cold water temps(54 degrees average), but it's been a few weeks and I just needed to get out there. Mostly stayed inside the harbor hoping for halibut. No butts, but I ended up with a couple spotties and one good sized sculpin just outside the jetty. All released as usual. Not Earth-shattering, I know. But thought some of you would enjoy the pics at least.

Thanks! Plenty sick of my own desktop view as well. To be honest, the sunrise is half the reason I like getting out there early!

Hiked up to patriot’s peak in the afternoon and it was a gorgeous day. Looked like a pretty day out on the water too.

More Kudos for the photos -- Love the texture in the clouds and the sunset is nostalgia.
