Managed three large snappers and proceeded to liveline them for two hours, losing one but never feeling a hit. Disappointed, started to paddle homeward and trailed the snapper popper (just in case, but thinking I would at least bring home three for the limit, lol.) slightest of hits and reeled in a 5 inch snapper. Thought, why not, and paddled back 200 yards to "my spot" and voila, still another weakfish came home but this 18"er is destined for the freezer as we are concerned we will start growing fins. Got a contractor doing stuff all next week here so am going to be in hiatus for a while unless I get out Sunday morning. East wind but I think my two hours of paddling to stay in place were caused by the snappers simply being too big for the average summer weak, and I haven't even managed a short fluke in the last two weeks on the yak. (I did pull in a another good sized snapper for the limit of three on the way back up the creek.) Keep thinking I need to try for kingfish and blowfish off the boat but this kayak fishing is just so addictive.
