Bikini Bay (10/24)
« on: October 25, 2017, 06:20:58 AM »
I got some beach intel from a surfer buddy and it confirmed that a surf session was out.  We decided to actually hit the bay and soak some baits.

Hot weather brings out the bikinis, and there was plenty of them out today.

I got bit 1 minute after my first cast and was on the board with a small shovelnose for +1.  Steve then volleys with a smooth hound for +1.  I volley with a round ray for still +1 points.  Steve comes back with a slightly bigger smoothie for +2.  Steve goes up with another something... or maybe he didn't.  Since I didn't see it, I'll just call it a -1 from the seedy way Steve was acting after he got it to shore... for 1 point total.  ;D

I then take the win with a small spotty for +2 total!  Well, all depending on what Steve's 3rd fish was, but it was a fun trip as it has been a few weeks since getting out fishing.  These guys would have made for great surf bait.

Otherwise, it was a great evening kicking it, while watching the sunset, drinking beer, fishing and chillin with friends.

Oh yeah, Ben....  Steve said something about catching smoothies....   "It's so easy baby!!!"

It is.  I caught 3 fish equaling 2 points as one was the zero point ray.  Steve had +2, but I was teasing him that he threw back a -1 before I could see it so said he's at +1.  I miss the real grinners also......
