Bait Stealers are out in Force! (7/25)
« on: July 26, 2017, 06:15:46 AM »
It looks like my circle hook experiment will be taking a hiatus here soon as all I'm doing is missing those bait stealers.

Steve and I hit the surf to epic conditions.  Weeds on the beach, but the water was clean.  Small surf 1-2 feet and warm ass water!!!  The water temps were 74 degrees!

We fished until 10:30 and Steve wrangled up a nice sand bass.  Otherwise our baits were eaten to the bone within 15 minutes.  No bigger bites, but it sure does feel like Hammer-Time with all of that warm water!  Now it's just time to catch one!!!

Keep on chugging away.  Sooner or later someone will catch an exotic in this warm ass water!
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

There's a butt load of YFC out too! Wold be nice to get an exotic, but I just don't feel it happening unless we get a huge influx of bait in the surf line.

Weeds on the beach, but the water was clean.

That's certainly better than the other way around   ;)
