Newport Skiffin 11/15

[cappo]

Went to Newport Harbor today with my two buds Odog and Rick. We rented one of the Skiffs from Daveys.
Wind was up but not too bad. Rick brought a drift chute so that held us in place really well.
Fished a few places for just a few nibbles, no hookups. Moved around I was able to land a 16"
Hali on a dropshot jerkshad. No pic cuz Odog lost it when trying to grab it with the bogagrip.
Rick was on a roll with sandies and micro spotties. Odog proves the bananas aren't bad luck.

We moved around some more and found some good spots to makes some drifts. Thats when I caught
the biggest spottie of the day.

Time was running out so we head back closer to the docks, we ended drifting a few more times.
We found the honey hole. Oscar gets rocked, few headshakes and its sayonara. I told him dont
worry I'll get that bass for you. Hehe I hooked up another nice spottie. All fish were caught
swimmies and jerkshads. We ended up catching around 20ish sandras and spotties
and one hali.
