20160526 - SHORT KAYAK TRIP INTERRUPED BY T'STORMS

Checked the weather forecast before going out and it looked like I had a good 3-4 hr window of kayaking opportunity out on the flats. Before launching I made a few casts from shore and hooked up with a nice 12” class B.Crappie casting parallel to the road rip rap with the “Spring Cricket”. A start to a good trip?
Working the pockets and openings in the shallows I picked up sporadic tags including some decent grappie and 1 decent gill. All on the "Spring Cricket"
Carp were everywhere in the shallows... splashing and spawning tight to the bank.
Then the thunder was detected in the distance. I checked the Minute Cast and locally developing t storms were headed this way and within 54 minutes the rain would begin.
I timed it correctly where I needed 15 mins to head to shore pack up and walk home. I cut my fishing trip short and made it home just in time before the downpour.
