Did much better than we did, 5 guys and 5 rods for 5 hours last night.  Lots a bait stealers and a few smelt and thornbacks caught.  Highlight of the night was a 18" bat............. :o

Small surf, zero grass, no wind, great company= good evening.  What did the leo take?   Verne

Sweet!  Way to make it work!

It's been a while since even a leopard was beached.  Excellent job!
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

Nothing wanted fish. The octopus got mauled and the Leo took squid.

Used about a pound of squid feeding the ecosystem and recycled a fair bit of old bait.

The 2 big hits were about 5 minutes after the bait was in the water and  pulled a few yards of line and dropped it. Since the bait was bitten in half I knew it was a shark. Used some old line shy catfish tricks the next cast and scored.

Tossed a hunk of bonito out after and got nothing. Rebaited with squid and cast about 1 second and a buried loop hung up the reel and everything broke off. :(

While I had stuff to retie it was 10:30 and after working a 12 hour day figured the fish gods were telling me to not be greedy.

Definitely going to hit that locale again next trip out when the tides and surf allow. Either I hit that Leo in the head on those 3 casts or he wasn't the only one hunting.
