: Launched dry @ 6am with zero pucker factor waves. Set up and made a few casts in the kelp and arrived @ the 55 spot about 7. Poked around a bit and then metered some fish just west of the pinnacle. 5 casts, 5 legal sandies to 18 "(kept for dinner). From 8 to 9:30 ish caught 4 more. Drifted the flat between the 77 and 55 for a nice flattie which I promptly released at the yak ( not my intention ). The bite slowed down from there and I ended my fishing with a total of 10 sandies, 1 calico and a 'but ( I'm still counting him ). Met some very friendly PBrs (SkipJack 25 drop me an email) and headed in at 12pm. Stopped in the kelp to stow the gear and, as I drifted into a clearing, I realized I could see the bottom. Checked the meter and it read 35'. It was so clear I could see my 5" FT sitting on the bottom. My concentration suffered and I dropped my Scotty overboard and watched it drift gently down into a crevice between two rocks, spooking two Gerabaldi who seemed to give me a stern look. As I drifted into 20' I could even see the small green crabs picking their way across the rocks. The fishing seemed to take a back seat as I drifted and watched for the better part of an hour. What a fantastic day. Hit the beach dry about 1:30 loaded up and headed for home. JAS, how was your afternoon session??DLDLRichard
Richard,
Couldn't make it. I've been paying my dues lately. Hopefully the good karma will pay off this week. I hope to hit some sort of bite asap. Maybe head down to La Jolla even.
