It was nice enough when I got out here but the weather stormed like a mother ****er and so far I think I hooked a big ass ****ing turtle but ended up breaking the line that mother ****er cock sucking son of a whore bitch **** turtle. He is lucky he didn't come to shore because I have a turtle buster knife to **** him up with. I hate turtles.
It's nice and piecefull now water is calm and I think I'll be trying out my kayak for the first time this morning.

A couple years back, a work buddy lent me the use of his cabin on a private, small 8 acre lake and he had a peddle kayak
Gotta say it took some getting used to landing fish out of it, but damned if it wasnt awesome to quietly peddle into a little cove and get exactly where you want to be just coasting into the spot with no peddling... sneak in on those fish like a ninja
Ah yes turtles, those little bastards have stolen more bait from me than I can recall... its particularly bad at the local lake, they've become so trained by the bank beaters out there, that you'll see 2-3 at a time slowly cruising back and forth at roughly max casting range
Just waiting for you to dare try getting something past them

I went out kayak fishing right before dark Sunday at the lake I live on. The park had been busy with fisherman all day so my hopes of catching fish were low.
In the 45 minutes I fished I landed 9 Bass all above 14'. All top water and all near the banks. It was freaking explosive.
You just don't get days like that very often.

Almost every fish I caught this weekend was within 2-3 feet of shore, they were apparently hiding in the shade of riprap... what was your topwater lure?
