Short report:

Got a call late yesterday afternoon from my friend Rick asking me to take him out to fish the wall and the oil rigs (plastics only)

He got to my house around 6 and headed towards Davies and launched. On the way out the getti, this guy on a kayak starts to follow me and uses the wake my boat left behind to surf his way out...very cool :rockon:

Got to the wall and it was super high tide....we start our drift on the inside and all we got were a bunch of dinks and a ray.

We decided to try the outside wall and it was the same story so we decided to head toward the oil rig. Lots of shorts with a few legals in the mix. Then I pinned on a large sardine Gulp and drop it down. As soon as it hits the bottom, it got picked up and the reel starts to squeal........12 lb test on my bait casting Diawa reel.

Finally get it to the boat and up comes this huge sandy. 4 lbs on the Rapala Digi scale.

Called it a night soon there after.

Total count:

5 average size legals
1 grumpy sandy :)

Great night of fishing with a bud! I think I am getting the hang of this night fishing business

Dude, NICE turd roller! That thing was fat!~ Nice job on getting on the fish. Ever try Gulp! baits? I think they are the next best thing to live bait. Keep them reports coming. PM me if you wanna a buddy boat for a night run. I'll b ready next week.
