i took my kayak out today for the first time just to get a feel for things and maybe to catch a few fish. got out on the water about 12 and went south to a few creeks on the east side of the ditch, the tide seemed super low. after about two hours and no action i headed back, the only thing that got caught today was my truck. when i backed down the "ramp" to load my kayak turns out it was a little soft. just wanted to give a heads up to anyone else using that area as a launch.

That stinks man, should think about using the boat ramp there next time.

i thought about it but there was a fair amount of boat traffic and this spot is marked as a launch spot on the fishing spots map. also it was sand(except the mudhole) so i could slide my kayak instead of picking it up, it weighs about 80+ when loaded and its awkward to pick up at 14ft long

Now I bet you wish you'd bought the 4x4 =)

yea would be nice but it was my graduation gift so im not complaining either way and insurance for an 18 year old with a 4x4 is a little steep but, thats why i never leave home without my tow strap. usually gets through most stuff as long as i bag the tires and get a running start but thats what family with street legal monster trucks are for isn't it???=)

Well at least you got out. It’s been tough fishing in the Palm Valley area lately with all the cold weather & wind. Nice to see you got out though.

Good thing you got out OK. Hey at least that's better than a great day on the water and then returning to find your truck a bit below the hide tide line.
