NPH 2/22 a.m. - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Met up with a couple bwe members (fish & cheap Pelican) to kill a few hours before work. Went out light with a couple of boxes of plastics and mostly worked the coast guard and boat moorings area. Bite was slow but ended up with a jack smelt the size of my fore arm and this 12" calico. Largest I've caught back in the harbor. Called it a day at 9:30 and left for work.

Caught on a 3" sexy smelt with hot sauce.

Definitely a nice calico for the harbor and way better than what I did before work.

12"?? I call BS!!! Just look at your paddle! That cow measures 20" to the Pectoral fin!!! 12".... Yeah right, stop being modest!

Catching was tough with the shallow tide swing. All my bass were caught on the drop. Missed a few on while trolling. Perfect weather. Only saw one Spottie.
