: Old Salts on the Big Bay (4/27)
: Latimeria June 24, 2014, 07:11:22 AM

Old school morning trip today.  I took Dave and Roger out on the big bay looking for corvina.  Roger and Dave are a late start crowd, but we haggled the time down to at least 7am.   :lol:
Here they come...

I knew we made a good choice to stay off the ocean as all the SD 1/2 day boats were fishing the bay with me.

Good Flatty action today with the biggest being 20".

Dave got the first two vina on deck...

We picked up a half a dozen silver on the hard baits in no time.

Also, the bay is paved with 10"-15" Lizards!

I totally lost count on these guys... but we had some decent action back there today with a half dozen vina, half dozen flatties, a dozen + assorted bass with one legal in the mix...  and a bunch of trash fish.  Oh, there was also a decent mackerel bite going on too.

Another fabulous day in America's Finest City...

Looks like good conditions out in the bay. I want to know how you squeeze three people on that boat.
