DP- Yesterday - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

PapaDave · 12-30-2023, 12:30 PM

So I had a couple of guests for fishing yesterday, went from Dana Point. You know, lately the receivers have had some decent sized bait, 4-5", hope that lasts. Weather was good, offshore breeze turning inshore around 1:00pm, barely a ripple on the water surface but the surfers were enjoying the swells. And the King Tide generated quite a current in the harbor, for it's size anyway.

My guests were new to ocean fishing, one was new to fishing. They indicated they wanted to fish in the kelp because that's where they were told the fish were. So off we went.

We got to the kelp area and within 10 minutes they were ready to try somewhere else. They were only out for a four our trip so I took them over to the pipeline, were they caught several bass, and stopped in the harbor on the way in where they got a couple of spotties. Not a bad day at all, I enjoyed the day.
