From muskie guy.  I fished all last Wednesday night in Belmont.  I fished next to the Altimos bay breakwall half the night and on the breakwall for half the night. They were filming great whites before I went out.

30 minutes after sunrise it hit.  Took all my line, got half back, took all line again and I got half back. The next run I was moving on the rocks and had my rod in a bad position and my knot broke.

I seen it 3 times from around 200 yards.  I seen apx. 3 feet of black body arch, with no fins, and a tail splash around 3 feet from the arch.

10 minutes after I lost it a helicopter showed up filming the area.

Any thoughts I what I had on.

Thanks for the advice. Tail rope was already made and I just ordered a dehooker.

Any pointers on landing with no help.  I'd prefer not to get bitten.

Thanks for your time.

I have a week of drinking with buddies and then 2 weeks of fishing.  I have a friend going to school and living in San Pedro.

I plan on fishing Redondo/ Manhattan a few days, Newport a few days, San Clemente over the weekend.  I'll see how the first week goes then plan the second week.

For my 2 weeks of fishing (May 13 to 27) I plan on going to piers to catch bait before sunset and fishing the beach all night until AM high tide or too many swimmers.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

I'd like to THANK YOU GUYS in advance for any help and advice you give me.

The first full week in May I'm staying at a cottage in Belmont Shore and will be fishing the LA harbor a few nights. Then my buddies are leaving and I'm staying for 2 weeks to fish for sharks.


My first question is about Pole Holders

I plan on using 2" PVC (I have extra).  Using 2 pieces apx. 30" long.  On one piece I plan on cutting a "stake end" with 2 "V" cuts with one longer than. On the other end I'm gluing on a coupling.

I plan on using a rubber mallet to hammer it into the sand and then placing the other piece in the coupling to fish.

If this concept is OK, my question is:

How long to make the "V" cuts for the Stake?

I was planning 6" and 3"

THANKS AGAIN
