took my little 9 foot Malibu mini-x 1.5 miles offshore to the bob hall standpipe, which is offshore of Corpus Christi Texas, i was looking for cobia, kingfish and sharks. things were a little slow offshore but i did manage a little cobia on cut bait(lesser amberjack), and a small kingfish on a rapala mag 15...i put out two rods for sharks since one of the other kayakers said a 7 foot shark bumped his kayak, after they paddled back to shore....the bait on the smaller rod got picked up, after a 40 minute fight a big turtle i had hooked came to the top for air...i managed to remove the hook after about another 10 minutes. i called it a day after that..it was about 3:00 pm and there were 2-3 foot swells coming through..i covered allot of water trolling rapalas and live baits jigged from the rig with out too much interest..i think the kings were a little bit further offshore that day.

surfed in the kayak within 200 yards of shore with my 7 year old a bit too, we did pretty good for about 20 minutes then flipped and called it a day, lots of fun cant wait to do it again gopefully on a calmer day
