We saw the kayaker a couple weeks back. I dunno if it's the same guy, but 2 years ago, when it was lock and load fishing, there was a yakker who landed a few fish. One towed him about 8 miles. I believe he was a toursit from Chicago. (and a dumbass)
He has landed a fish before. He now has a film crew following him, or at least they are talking about making a show out of it. He is permitted and is doing it by the rules. The bitch is not getting out there but getting back...
