Kayak Fishing 5-6-15

We launched at 8 a.m. with overcast skies and calm seas. Our weather was decidedly cooler than the previous week but without the winds. We loaded up on bait - sardines and mackerel. Tim said he had info on spots a couple miles down the beach so Jack and I followed his lead. Mike and Joe fished the beach.

Our water temp was 63.5 most the day and although the air was cool, it was a very nice day on the water. We peddled 45 minutes or so before we started fishing. We kept working our way south until we were over 4 miles south.

Without a single bite, Jack and I started working our way back towards the pipeline. Jack managed to hook one mackerel for the day. He was luckier than me.

Around 1:30 p.m. we headed back to dock. I had traveled 10.8 miles for the day. Shortly after we arrived, Tim came in with a 5.5 lb. calico bass he said he caught just before heading in. Lucky guy again!
