7/30 Mac Attack in the BU

[Fish Jerk]

With the absence of the toothy kind, I decide to hit the light rod today.

Some great conditions in the BU this morning.
Fished from 5:30 - 8:30am.
Very minimal weeds today at this AO.
Weapon of choice: 3/4 b/s kastmaster.

I ended up with a nice variety of fish this outing.

Total for the day was:
18 Mac's (added 6 to my shark bait stash)
7 Calicos to 12"
1 lonely smelt
and 2 pancake butt's.

"Professionally" released around a 1/2 dozen or so, including 1 really good fish that gave about 1 sec of drag burn on the hookset then released.

All action died by around 8. so called the trip early. Might give it another go tomorrow.

Wish I could hit the surf and catch mackerel.

Surf mackerel sound like a live bait situation! Lol

Nice session. You got some more baits for shark fishing, but the grinners got to be somewhere!

That just made me pack my longrods along for the morning light rodding I was planning on doing...
