Fished a kayak tournament out of old Whitney 4/16. Covered about 5 miles west and north of the ramp in total. Caught 13 fish and lost a few good ones on the ole trusty white zoom fluke. Biggest was 2.10. Fish were tight to cover, especially lay downs. At the end of the day I was watching bass all different sizes going crazy on tiny bait in the back of a small cut.
