Finally got out hoping to catch some bass and hunt for halibut. Morning started off wonderful and I was back in my happy place.
I saw tons of birds out there and chased them to just find tons of small dolphin raiding the meat balls of bait. I was just about to switch up to go with my original plan when I saw some big yellows shooting through the water! I was throwing the big YoZuri Hydro minnow when all of a sudden, I almost had the rod yanked out of my hand. It was only a 2 second burst of drag running out when it finally pulled the hook.
I chased those f@ckers the following next few hours before I decided to call it quits and just look for some bass. Bass fishing wasn't fast and furious, but it was steady action of calico and sand bass.
I started with a big Sandy.
I caught 14 Calico, but nothing bigger than 14.5".
I moved around and kept a steady amount of bass coming over the rails. I even got a double header of Sand Bass while having a swimbait hanging over the side while I was fighting one. Both were grumpy S.O.B's!
I had a party to get too, so I called it quits after a half day. Considering I went off script to chase yellows that I didn't realize were still around, I had some decent bass fishing.
Thanks for reading!
