what a great couple of hours out this is what kayakfishing is all about

me and ian just went out for a couple of hours to get the mackerel that are suicidal at the minuite in gods country :)

followed ian out and on the water for about 7 15 paddled a couple of hundred yards out were ian was into the mackerel and dropped down the feathers and was getting a full house every drop before they hit the bottom

after about a hour of relentless mackerel kept about 20 for bait with a lot more returned

heard what I thought was a shotgun going off but a more solid sound looked out to sea and coudnt sea any boats

then caught a glimpse of what was making the noise about a couple of hundred yards further out you could sea dolphins flying out of the water about 6 /8 foot high then slapping downonto the water
seen this on the telly before when the dolphins push the fish up from the bottom and a few of them jump out and stun the fish
couldn't get any photos as they were just that bit too far for the camera
what an amazing thing to watch, still thinking about it now

then ian pulls in his pb cod on the yak 14lb 15 oz weighed at home heres a few photos of the fish











well chuffed for you mate


back on the beach at 9 and what a memorable couple of hours jeff
 
Cracking fish well done! I witnessed same thing with dolphins today, was amazing but like u said they were just that little too far for a pic! whereabouts did u see them? I was about 4 mile off tynemouth
