Making bait and a couple pier lifers
« on: August 26, 2017, 12:22:03 PM »
Binh and I hit up Ocean Beach this morning.  We got a couple of bonita but were having a hard time hooking mackerel even though kids around us were catching a bunch of small ones.



On the walk back I dropped my bait down and picked up a lifer sargo! (#461)



And then at the base of the pier I dropped down again and scored another lifer, dwarf surfperch. (#462)



The rocky area at the base of the pier looks good, will have to go back sometime and spend more time there.

Binh couldn't catch mackerel? At the pier? Going to lose his Asian card.

Hey we caught one decent size mac and a couple of nice size Bonitos. It was't wide open but I was targeting bonitos with the splasher rig anyways.  :P
