After a two month break that my back requested from the kayak, after the morning yah rain, I put in and paddled over to Plymouth harbor and had the most osprey pain in the butt couple hours. If you looked away for a minute while navigating the boats, one of the dozen birds would snatch your bunker. Managed a couple 40” bass and then the sun came out and headed in. Mainly wanted to check out new battery to make sure the Garmin wasn’t my issue since the failures the last couple trips out months ago.

Total skunk? Were you fishing for stripers only? There have been plenty of BSB, scup and bluefish around down there. I only fish for stripers now as a side, BTW, when I'm fishing for something else; just doesn't seem worth the effort any more most of the time, especially with the new tiny slot limits.

No I was targeting Funny Fish .. but saw no bass or Blues Sometimes I'll drop a jig now and then for black sea bass but like you said for the slot size and limit I haven't even bothered targeting BSB or tog

It’s looking like it’s going further offshore which is good and it’s a quick mover so hopefully that swell won’t stick around long. Maybe I’ll be out by next Monday Tuesday
