Another Successful Last Minute Trip 03/17/16
« on: March 18, 2016, 02:51:56 PM »
With the small surf all this week me and my buddy decided to hit up the 7 spot last minute. Got out at around 5PM with the peak high slated for 8PM. It was slow while the sun was up but once it went down I had a blistering run. Set the hook and felt massive headshakes and tail slaps and it was taking me up the beach. I could tell this was a huge 7 but after one good tail slap *POP*... dammit. Then my friend gets hit about 20 minutes later and again farms the hookset. About 40 minutes later he gets his shot again and hauls up a nice 97" female which actually fought too.


Number two for him. Then I got a solid hookup at about 8:45PM handed it to my girlfriend and it was able to shake the hook. Oh well! Another nice short last minute session and the 7s are really on the chew up here!

That was the plan originally but Denny and Tony out voted me.  They said they couldn't go another trip with the long rods after 10 skunks in a row.  We're gonna dropper loop the "old calico spot" instead   ;)

I drive past some good looking beaches when I head to my folks. Know they would produce. It's still a couple hours to drive so I never stop for a late session.
