2/7/08 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Well launched with team OEX hobie and team AYS to a fairly thumpy high tide surf launch, wound up being quite a bit of fun punching through and getting that nice "thud" as you went over the top of the wave! Quickly made it on out to some familiar areas and we all began chucking iron and looking for good marks. I did get a big bump on my iron right off the bottom but it didn't stick. Saw some nice marks but all to no avail...saw one nice fish caught, and got some sandies off the bottom before I called it a day. Water was cold but nice, saw 2 very large gray whales up close and personal 2 nice blow hole spouts and extremely large flukes out of the water and less than 20 feet from the front of my kayak, cool and scary all at once and lots and lots of porpoise and seals!! Good luck to all those heading out!! Nice chatting with you CJ and Nate, and good seeing the rest of you out there, I will be out saturday and sunday hoping to improve!!
