Morning Surf Sesh (10/5)

I probably should have taken the boat out since it was just an epic flat morning, but my back was still jacked from the hooping night and I wanted to get back early. 

I met Steve at the beach to a lot of weeds in the dark.  We moved over to another beach and found it relatively weed free.  Steve said Magic seaweed was calling for only 2-4 or less... Well, we saw a lot of overhead, if not double overheaders coming in! Luckily, we both managed a fish before the beach got too crowded.

I got a bat ray...


And Steve a Guee-tar.


Not much, but we didn't get the skunk and that's alright in my book.

Until next tide...
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

Even with the heavier than expected surf, we had a little protected zone going for us. Between that and the Klammer Hammers it was totally fishable. Won't be long before we retreat to the bay though.

Definitely better than a skunk! To bad no toothy kinds tho

Nice work! I hit the bay 2 nights ago and the current was insane. Couldn't keep a bait from moving 30+ yards.

Maybe I should hit the surf one of these days....

Maybe try a different rig. Pyramid and a three way swivel. Reel in gear, drag light. Should work better.

Good idea. I had a 3 way with a 4 oz. pyramid....the reel in gear but light drag is something i never though of.

Light drag makes it easier to keep your gear. Make sure you have sn idea how much you can tighten it. Maybe bump up to a 6 oz pyramid.
