I thought I would share a little of my last day on the water fishing in the Inshore portion of the Florida Sportsman Kayak Challenge. I didn't catch any fish that helped my numbers today, but I had fun challenging myself. I think I need a break for a few days....I was on the water today from 6:30am to 7pm!
Let's start with the fact that the water temperature was spring cold, 72 degrees at 11am. Caught lots of big Bluefish and plenty of Trout as well. While paddling around I passed over some deep water and a freaking Sailfish (approx. 4ft?) passed under my kayak!!! I just started laughing, that's a new one for me! Then I caught these two Grouper on the same DOA Shrimp. What a day!

A sailfish!? yikes. There are no fences in our waters, so I believe it. I once saw a sailfish swim right along the northern jetty at St. Lucie Inlet (while I was walking the beach for snook). I thought that was close to shore!

@Offshore - The water may have been 15ft. Honestly I don't exactly know, no Humminbird fish finder on the kayak YET.
@ FS Sam - That would have been awesome to see a sailfish right there at the jetty, you must have been like...what the hell!
@Blackhat - A friend told me yesterday that he saw Dolphin in the Palm Beach Inlet. I guess I really can stay inshore and catch anything, lol!
