Called all my fishing buddies today begged and pleaded "Cummon guys the halibut bite its gonna be wide today trust me!" No one wanted to come out "Those Bastards!" Oh well I hit the surf anyways. My game plan was to hit up the long beach jetty, but ended up fishing the beach instead. Got there at low tide in the evening throwing a Lucky Craft Flash Minnow in Aura Black as soon as the Tidal movement started "FISH ON!"

http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg264/toadstoadsonly/IMAGE_00013.jpgAbout 17in. A few more cast repeat #3 "HOOKUP!"

Here are the brother and sister together.

Caught all of them on the Lucky Craft I've been out to the surf 3 times in 2 weeks and got Legals everytime. The butts are biting everywhere especially during the Grunion run. The Grunion run is like Trout Stocking For big bass.

You weren't kidding Jonathan, you've had some fun out there on the surf. Hopefully, I'll have some luck tomorrow in Dana.

Just as I have been saying the LCFM can be deadly in the surf... Pointers and crocodiles can deadly as well. Sorry my phone died when you called me this afternoon. I ran in to Abel right after that and I told you had caught some halibut. I'm sure you probably talked to him after... Good job on those Jonathan.. I call you tomorrow.

Hop on to the other side of the jetties and try LBC instead of seal you'll get them for sure if you work them on the LC's.

Good Luck
