Why Oceanside? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Why do I keep coming to this local watering hole.
No fish. Not even lizard fish where bitting today.

But as everyone says "good on the water bad in the office"

Big thanks to Oceanside Dive & Kayak for the Lowrance M4
big diff in sonar and color.

Try fishing 30 yards from someone that is catching while you're watching

It was just a bad day! I was fishing in Carlsbad just got 2 bites and one a big needle fish.

How did the new Fish Finder work out? Did you at least see any fish on your fancy new color screen? Haha If you move in a hurry I'll know your on something from now on!

Sounds like Dana lately. At least you got out there. Did you try the A.R.s?

I got the mark-4 lets just say that thing is a beast. Next time I'll bring the sabiki... cause baitballs where everywhere.

I never catch anything off the AR I might just find 80ft of water and just drift.

I'm glad i'm not the only one lol, i feel better about myself. I was doing the same thing. Fishing bottom and top but not a dam thing. Everyone tells me to lauch from the lagoon and out. But i have been out twice and nothing both times. When do you normaly go out?

when the crew doesn't go to DP...
I'll go weekends. But damn speed boats and sail boats are just everywhere there.

Cool thing. The rock area has a lot showing on the fish finder. But all they are are red fish.
