O'side Pier 7/23/16

 Wife and kids out of town for a couple weeks. Hit the pier this morning to make some bait. Pretty slow for me. Would have done better if I was more serious.


There were some nice mackerel around but all I got were the 6 inch models.

One was snatched up by a small yellowtail on the way in. Took me straight to the pilings and wrapped my sabiki in the mussels. Nothing to do but break it off. Ugh.

Still, it was fun to hook one.

I'm going to tell Dave you lost a big yellow.  When he asks me what gear you were using, I'm going to tell him a zebco coffee grinder combo with 12# Eagle Claw line.

Did you bring back any bait?

3-4 decent baits. 5-6 more would be nice bass baits. Might bring them back to the pier later. Mack chunks were working better but I didn't have a knife.

YT must've been exciting!
