Red Drum

I took out the “Big Drum” with Jason “jscrib” and Kevin “Mars” to do a little critter fishing in the Santa Monica Bay. We went as far as Point Dume for an assortment of Rockfish, Lingcod, Bass, Perch, Croaker, Sculpin and Sand Dabs. On a scale of 1 to 10, the fishing was a solid 10; however, the catching was about a 7.
The weather was perfect for most of the day but it got windy n’ sloppy around 3pm.
Here I am with the first fish of the day. A nice legal Lingcod.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get any pics of Kevin’s big Brown Rockfish and Bocaccio.
We all had a fun time out on the big pond and I can’t wait to get back out there again. HOOK-UP!!
Till next tide,
