Howdy NCKA! I’ve been reading this board off and on for the past several years, and figured it was about time to join. I grew up on the east coast, and moved out to NorCal about 10 years ago. I have been fishing my whole life. Back east it was mostly freshwater for bass, trout, bluegill, and such, with the occasional trip to 1000 islands for walleye and pike. I bought a SIK soon after moving out here and got a few fish in the Russian River every now and then, but never took it out into the ocean. I learned quickly that shore fishing the big blue can be frustrating, and good spots are found by putting the time in to find them. I started freediving/spearfishing about 2 years ago, and really have been getting more into it this summer. Now I’m ready to get out on a SOT yak (as soon as my budget allows) and really get on some fish. I’m sure I’ll see some of you out there doing the same. -Mike

So true. Just getting a few hundred yards from shore in a kayak opens up a whole new world of fishing, at least for rockfish and lingcod.
