Lots of choices and firsts today.
First off where to go
Cabrillo ?
Cherry ?
Los Al ?
Huntington Harbor?
Newport ?
Well I ended up with Los Alamitos bay. Had some good intel (thanx Randy) that backside of the bay was producing well last weekend, so I gave a shot.
Launched @ 930 from Mothers Beach and made my way to the bigh 2nd street bridge. Tide was out going. Wind kept doing 180's Fished until 3.
Tryed out some bass baitcasting combo (theres a first) from Sport Authority. Made it through the day with only 1 major birdnest that required to cut the line.
On to the report
1 st cast hook up (thats a first)on a short Spotty
20 minutes later hook up on a short diamond turbot (thats a first) - PLEASE CONFIRM SPECIES
@ 1200 HUGE bait ball showed up on Naples Side of bridge, didn't do anything for me though
On Shore wind picked up - White caps and lots of foam were being driven in. Didn't make it to the past the yacht club or gas pumps. Looking for cover turned into the docks by JOE's Crab shack.
Picked up a Butt (theres another first ) @ 230 - PLEASE CONFIRM SPECIES
Next cast picked up a Sandie
