First time out

[dewinwa]

Took the kayak out for the first time to test things out. Had to make some adjustments to the way I mounted the transducer and realized how much easier life will be once I install a rod holder in front of me but all in all it went well. Although I still have a lot to learn I was still able to pull in a couple of these. I see many more days out on the water in the near future.

Good job on the spotty, I never get tired of catching those guys. Keep it up things will get better as you learn.

I'm in the same boat as you. California fish are different than Hawaii fish. I'd say better by a long shot. Good job on the spotty. What did you catch him on?

Just a little swimbait I had. I think I need to do some tackle shopping though.

Try some Z Man elaZtec paddler Z in Pearl or Copper Penny and they can be rigged using a weedless head if you want to not get stuck in the eel grass. Also helps to use a scent UniButter is a local product that works really well.

Cool thanks for the tip. I'll look into those.
