Newport or J Street or Tidelands this Sat? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Nice ride you have and getting it from Andy is a great choice too. As far as setups and baits? Light line, like 6-12lb. There will be no water movement, so the bite will most likely be tough. I'll be fishing 3/8 lead heads and 4-5" slender profile baits. A 3" could be good too. Colors? Baitfish patterns in medium to light/clear colors. Reds, browns, and oranges. And white and/or chartreuse.

For the head and bait styles. I use Warbaits Slayer heads, Coolbaits Down Under Spin, and Caivo underspins. Bait styles are varied: creature baits, swimbaits, grubs, flukes, and even a couple worms.

Scent can make a big difference too. I use Hot Sauce, Uni Butter is good, as well as the Pro-cure scents.

That's what i use. Whatever you have that seems to fit, bring it.

I don't use live or dead bait for bass, but both shrimp and squid work. I'd probably give the nod to shrimp.

Yes Andy was very helpful getting everything I need and setting it up. He was very patient with all my newbie questions.

Thank you so much for all the info. I will bring most of what I have current.
See you tomorrow.
