Man, today was pretty chill! Took my kayak out to the harbor around 6 AM before the sun really popped. The water was smooth as butter, but the wind picked up a bit later, maybe 10-15 mph? I was using my favorite Shimano reel with a light line and a few squid jigs. Caught a handful of mackerel and a nice halibut, maybe around 5 lbs! The bite was slow in the morning, but around noon they started hitting hard. Weather was nice too, around 72Β°F and partly cloudy. Wish I could’ve stayed out longer but had to head back before the sun went down. Looking forward to tomorrow, might hit up a different spot. Tight lines everyone!
