Absolute TOAD PB Calico! + Exotic surf species, and a Bat Ray!!! 1/18

[SurffishingSean]

A friend had hit me up and was feeling the urge to fish. I  We were fishing by 10:30 pm. I had changed my mind twice because of conditions! Waves were pounding although the first cast yielded a bat around 36-40". I Forgot how good they fight.






The tide was dropping quick and it began to sprinkle lightly. I had another take... Put the reel in gear and reeled up on the circle hoo. I had the drag hammered down. more than i wanted to. Felt like a small yellow tail. I had called it being a huge calico as i was bring it up. This was redemption for the other tank i lost a few weeks ago.








25-26"


Also got this exotic surf rattlesnake the previous session about 2 weeks ago. Stoked on this little surf sculpin aswell.



Now time to get one on a light light this big. Thanks for reading everyone and best of luck out there. Lets put in work this year and catch a lot of fish
