Spotties from the Wavestorm

I’ve started fishing the harbors of the big bay from my 8’ Wavestorm surfboard. I started doing it instead of float tubing; they’re a lot easier and quicker to get around on, are far less cumbersome to load in the car and carry up/down the rocks, and they force you to pack light and only bring what you need. Only issue is that mine is a few years old and pretty waterlogged; recently I’ve noticed it sinking further and further into the water as the session goes on haha. I also wonder about how healthy it is to be swimming around in that gross harbor water.
