I decided to take a late morning trip down to the sound today. Loaded up the kayak and got down there at around 9:30am.  Water was glass and a little dirty.  After about 20-30min, I get my first hit.  It felt like a little peck on the line, but I decided to set the hook anyways.  After that, it took off peeling drag.  Got him in and it was a nice slot red.  I throw some more with no action.  Then an hour later, I get a hit not 5 ft from the yak!  I was reeling the spoon back in and then a huge red comes up and swipes it. He took off and the towing sequence begins. I got him in and it was right at the upper slot limit.  To end the day, I got an average speck around 15in.

Total catch: 2 slot reds and a speck(15in). All released

Sorry, no pics since im a little nervous to bring a in a yak.

great post, there's nothing like being right on top of the water when a fish hits close.

here's an idea, get one of those disposable water-proof cameras . I've taken pictures underwater with them and they work great . cost less than $10 bucks

Congrats on your trip!   You can get the disposable waterproof cameras or I found one at K-mart for about $6 that is reusable and takes good pictures.  It is just the cost of the film and development which is very cheap with the 35mm film.
