High tide is noon so I should be able to fish the incoming and outgoing tide tomorrow.    Launching kayak from an undisclosed location with a free ramp that is sucky and treacherous. Haha. Hope I don’t go for a swim.  Weather has been warmer.  
 

man I’m a grown-ass man am I’m nervous and excited like a kid. 
 

main rigs. Wacky worm, drop shot, my new gold color crank bait, my new nichols red kicker blade spinnerbait, and some worm presentation like a shaky head or Texas rig.  
 

im going solo.  Happy my friends can’t go. Not ready to show them this spot.   Shhhhh.  Hope the wind stays calmer. 
 

LETS DO THIS!  please look for my gasoline go-fund-me account. Haha.  Just kidding.

Let's hear it! What happened?

Wind prediction changed my mind.  I couldn’t stomach not being able to fish a long day after a big fuel investment:). Big wind and big tide were to come at same time.  No bueno. The place I wanted to launch was better with two people putting kayaks in the water anyways. 

 

I hit lake Hennessy instead.  Brutal.  Lots of fish seen with eyes and fish finder, but they were not biting. 
 

‘’only took a few modest bass.

Ya the Delta is definitely tricky, good choice. In the yak I plan Delta trips around wind more than anything maybe. You caught some though!

Try some of the sloughs away from the central part of the delta. Go north or east,  the further away the less tide you have and less wind issue's.  You will still get movement but won't be ripping like Frank's, big break, state park, or bw. And wind won't be as much as an issue either.
