Hooked em & cooked em - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Iceman · 11-13-2014, 10:46 AM

Fished Dana Point earlier in the week. Lots of action on the sardines. fished the beach for a bunch of raked baits, couple short halibut, sandbass, couple short seabass, 1 leopard and 1 keeper halibut for dinner(nothing like Wayne's but excellent table fare). Water was nice and murky with smaller surf, good current and 66 degrees.

Nice report, thanks.

Aaron&Julie · 11-13-2014, 01:38 PM

I'll take a shot, judging by the thickness of you fillets, 8-10lbs?

to be accurate you have to take the thickness of the fillet X the degree of BENDO=

Aaron&Julie · 11-14-2014, 11:37 AM

That bendo with that thick of a rod, I'll re-guess that it's easily over 10lbs.

Thanks for the report. Nice job and pics.

Ah, proof the world is round! Nice pix and dinner.

Iceman · 11-15-2014, 11:34 AM

it was big enough to gaff, but not big enough to weigh or bother measuring.

Went back out yesterday PM trying out the new Wilderness Systems Thresher 140, for a little less action. Ended up catching 3 spiny dogfish, 2 leopards, 1 short WSB and 2 halibut, one looked legal, but I was hoping for something bigger.
