4/6 Tidelands with my boy - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Fished the outgoing tide this morning with my son, on the tandem. He's off for 2 weeks spring break. We missed a TON of fish. I think most were micro halibut, as we had numerous ones follow the plastic to the surface. Alot of short bites and some surprizingly coming unbuttoned on the way up. I ended up with a spottie and a sandie, good for the monthly slam on WCB

My boy did not want to quit, he just could not get one to stick. He did likely lose the best fish of the day, as his rod went deep BENDO, tip deep in the water, taking line and then popped off. Great morning on the water. We plan to hit again next week, before he is back in school. Loads of quality time fer sure.

We started out throwing the Shad Rap and Fat Free Shad, but switched to 4 and 5 inch swimbaits on 6 pound P line.
