got all the gear together and launched and then looked behind me... Where did my second rod go??? After a frantic search with a few of the other yakkers it was located in about 4 foot of water right in front of where I'd launched. The only piece of equipment not tethered down on the yak, bloody Murphy! A big thanks to Mark (bogey) and the other kayaker who stayed with me to help me find it. Lesson learned the hard way 
Eventually got back on the water and I followed the crowd out towards Brays. I don't currently have a sounder so it's all guess work for me out on the big sea. I trolled all the way there with only one touch on the halco laser pro, which left teeth marks but failed to hook up. Once out at Brays I drifted around with plastics getting occasional hits. I ran into a patch of yellowtails or slimy mackerel, which were smacking my plastic despite it barely fitting in their mouth. After a couple I moved on as I was chasing something more substantial. Not much else around and as the sun started to get quite high I made a move back to Moffats. I trolled back gong quite close to Shelly beach and was surprised by how much rubble and rock there is not far out from the beach. The water was very clear, but no fish n sight only the odd dolphin. No touches on the lure on the way back. Thankfully coming back in was far less eventful. A beautiful day to be on the water,despite the lack of decent fish landed. Now comes the fun part trying to salvage the reel after the dunking it took.
