Tongyeong Kayak report
 

Tried for black porgy (sort of a seabream family), but didn't pan out. Lot of sea perch and red gurnard though, which are still tasty and provided some action. With temps in the 20s, it was chilly in the kayak for sure.

This was a new area which was interesting to check out. Current wasn't bad, and the waters pretty sheltered. Spent the night in a 25 dollar hotel, shared room with 6 other guys. Didn't matter to me about sharing a room as I hit the water as soon as I woke up anyway. Pretty nice place.

Cold weather sucks and is hard on equipment. My chum mixer handle was cracked before I even took it out of the package, and my life jacket zipper was busted in half.

Couple photos of the Masan bridge, have to cross on the way home. Still working on this night photography...

Do they have any restrictions on species and size limits? Just wondering? Any agency like DFG?

wonderful shots! you know you are a true fisherman when you are willing to "FREEZE" your !@#$ off for a few hookups! Very nice job and thanks for sharing.

Well at least you did not have to worry about icing your catch to keep it fresh.:D

Awesome pics! What kind of camera are you using?

Great post and photos. The gunard is beautiful. They called them sea robins in N Carolina. I've heard they're very good eating. The little pelvic fin rays that use to walk on the bottom are a trip. Mike

Thanks for the report, Philir21. Keep em coming.

Love the reports and photos thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the report and great pics.

No regulation here whatsoever. It's sad actually, as overfishing on some boats/ports is blatant with displays of numerous coolers full of fish at the end of a day. As much as I love Japan, Japan is the same way. Doesn't look good for the future.

Thanks. For the on the water shots, I've been using a Nikon Coolpix AW100 and have been quite happy with it. Have used it for about three years now.

The nighttime bridge pics were with 10MP Canon Digital Rebel T3i.
