Blow Hard
October 11, 2013 - A steady wind at 15-20 knots kept other kayakers off the water but the Hobie excels in this type of slop. I was fishing the outgoing, starting about 2 hours after high and headed toward the estuary in search of some calmer water. I picked up my first fish 10 minutes in but it took a while to find my stride. After an hour I only had three fish in the boat. That's when I stumbled upon the mother load at the mouth of the estuary. The stripers were all stacked up where the wind and the current were at odds creating a nice chop. After that I couldn't put my line in the water without hooking a fish within seconds. Over the next hour and a half I boated at least 16 more fish. That's how many I caught before my camera battery died. But I kept on fishing and catching for a while after that so I know I caught well over 20 in a three hour trip. None were legal but all were fun.
