Took my son to Sea World today which was fun. He got tired it around 7pm and we left. I just couldn't see heading back to the L.A. area without wetting a line there in San Diego first.
I hadn't planned to fish today so without a plan we ended up at Mariners Basin in Mission Bay. I fished the southwest beach for less than an hour and hooked up on 3 beans in that time using the LCFM 110 Aurora Black.
Took a pic of the 1st, the other 2 were smaller models and I was too burnt to bother with pics.
All 3 c&r'd
here's the pic....

Wow, catching Corbina on the LC.. I've been trying to do that for months! That does look like a Bean not a YFC. One is tough enough, but three... well done. :Thumbs Up:

Nice job out there. Looks like you got a bit more sun than you had planned? :Embarrassed:
Thanks for the report and congrats to you.

Nice job!
It's always nice getting a line in new waters.

Thanks Wingnut,
After getting to the water and casting the lc out as far as I could, I then realized that it isn't very deep because my lc started digging into the sand on retrieve. I had to use a stop and go retrieve to keep it from digging into the sand.
Small little boils of bait fish would appear and I would cast directly over and beyond these boils and 3 out of the 70 or so casts that I made, I was able to hook up. I certainly wasn't expecting corbina.
great job. nice fish.
Thanks

Thanks O_L
Yes burnt I was, it was still in the 80's when we were stopped for a little fishing. As you can see I was wearing a jacket because the ocean breeze on my burnt skin made it feel like it was in the 60's. What sucks though is that I used a spray on sunscreen that, I think was removed from all the sweating I did. Either that or getting splashed in Shamoo stadium and a few other shows:Envious:
Nice job!

Thanks steve, I wasn't expecting much because I didn't have fishing planned but it turned out ok. It sure is nice down there, really nice scenery, clean beaches and free parking.
