Christmas Bay & San Luis Pass

Paul & I were set to meet at Christmas Bay on Saturday. We had big plans!

We launched at Ernie's Bait Camp just after daybreak after watching four of our fellow TKFers head out for the North Shore.

Christmas Bay is a great place to fish or to do a nature paddle.

When we finally got launched, the wind wasn't too bad.
It was great being on the water.

The temps were cool enough for long johns and a jacket. The winds picked up and we fished a while but were getting blown around pretty good in the open water.

Later we decided to move East to San Luis Pass to try to find some calm water.

We paddled across the pass to a sand bar.
The tide had just gone out and we set up to wade fish for a while.

You can see the water is getting rough in this picture. It was nice just sitting still and letting the sun shine on us for a while.

Kickin back in the Yak


We didn't catch any fish but it was worth the trip never the less!
