Hookups and Fishing Reports (Viewable by Public) / 9/12 SLR or forebay

« on: September 11, 2009, 10:35:45 AM »

Coastside swells don't look good so I'm going to try SLR or forebay.
Forecast for low winds could mean a rare opportunity to fish the main lake from Basault launch. Wouldn't mind some company

Hookups and Fishing Reports (Viewable by Public) / Awesome day at the Bean - Kiaikai Does grand slam times 2

« on: September 05, 2009, 08:53:13 PM »

What a beautiful day. Minimal wind, small waves, easy launch, easy landing. I kept a mixed bag of average rockies. Sorry haven't figured out the picture thing yet. Others had notable catches. Relative noobie Kiaikai on his Tridents maiden voyage exceeded Aaron's grand slam - times 2. I'll let him tell the story. All I'll say is he had so many fish he gave me a 15 # Ling and Obkook a really nice Halibut. Thanks Bro !!!

Hookups and Fishing Reports (Viewable by Public) / San Mateo or Santa Cruz coast Saturday?

« on: September 02, 2009, 09:14:07 PM »

Trying to find a place away from the crowds. Bean is an obvious choice but then again it's obvious to a lot of people. Open to suggestions. Saturday is looking like the best day. With all the storms down south it's looking to get pretty raunchy by Monday. who's hitting the coast this weekend?

Hookups and Fishing Reports (Viewable by Public) / Sat 8/22 Davenport or SC

« on: August 21, 2009, 02:47:49 PM »

I'm thinking Davenport for a trial run before FW Davenport part II or SC as plan B, if the weather is not cooperating. I haven't launched at Davenport so would appreciate someone who knows the spot.

Gearing Up and Rigging Up / Rod holder back packs?

« on: July 08, 2009, 04:35:40 PM »

I'm going to Hawaii in early October - one week in Maui and one week in Kuaui . From previous posts from others going to the Islands, I've gathered that your fishing kayak options can be limited. I figure I'll have to take what I can get at the tourist / kayak rental places. I need something relatively light and portable that I can either slip over or attach to a kayak seat or somehow clip to the kayak.
OK has a 2 rod, holder that goes over the seat and Apex has a pack with two rod holders that works with their seats. Has anyone used these? What do you think? Any Ideas on something I can make that would work on a wide variety of kayaks? Remember it has to be light and portable. With clothes, a couple Telescopic rods, some lures, mask & snorkel and maybe a fishfinder I have to keep my suitcase weight under 50#s. Gotta leave room for souvenirs

General Fishing Tips / Cheap Leadheads - Caution!

« on: July 06, 2009, 09:27:33 AM »

I bought some jigs through these guys. www. Jigsrigsandstuff.com The quality looks good but I want to caution people on purchases here. I bought 4OZ ball jigs that feel rather light for 4OZ. My problem was with the 3OZ Painted Squid head jigs I also bought. In big letters under the picture it said, SOLD in Packages of 25. I only received 12. When I called and in an email response he (George Keller) said they were being sold in packages of 10, that's why it was such a good price. I made the analogy of purchasing an 8 cylinder car on the internet and only recieving a 4 cylinder, but that didn't work. He would not back his advertised product. He did offer a refund if I would ship them back, but I decided to keep them as it was not worth the time and cost to ship lead back to the east coast.

Kayaks / Future Beach Angler 160

« on: May 26, 2009, 09:24:32 PM »

Hi

Anyone tried the Future Beach Angler 160 or know anyone who has?
Costco carries them and they come with a car rack. Can't find much on them, in the online reviews. Might be a good starter kayak.
