Follow the birds... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

lesson 101 for finding pelagics! Major bird school today, out West, feeding on red crabs. Slow trolled, a Spanish mac and got one (18-20#'s).

What a year...perfect timing, for me, to get into the sport. I know I'm getting spoiled, however I'll take what Mother Nature is giving up.

Wish I could say the same for my offshore trips with my buddies in there boats. No tuna yet for me this season

, however I am having a blast with the inshore yellows!!!

Tight Lines,

Geno

Very nice fish! As for the tuna, look closer! (we may or may not have found them 1 mile off oceanside pier on monday

)

The bite was super crazy today Spanish and greenies....Spanish macks are super under rated I gave some one 5 Spanish and every one got picked up

Well done. This is the time of year when your best fish finder is your eyes. It doesn't need to be as obvious as mass of diving bird either. One tern circling and looking down is all it can take to show fish. Mike
