Went out on the Sport King again today, out of San Pedro. Unfortunately, the Barracuda bite was not as awesome as last week. There were a few caught, none by me. They were hitting yellow jigs and I had every color but yellow. Also, they weren't boiling like last week.
However, did manage to catch lots of halibut, sand bass, and a few sculpin. There were about 6 halibut I caught, only one legal, pretty nice size, about 7lbs. I probably caught about 15 sand/calico bass and kept 6 (some were undersized and others were close but I like to keep only what I can eat). And I caught 5 sculpin, kept one, the rest were too small.
All in all, a good day. I was looking forward to some more barracuda, but the Halibut and Bass were nice. Here's a pic of the Halibut (my personal best), and one of the sand bass. All my fish were caught on anchovies with about a 3/4 oz egg weight (carolina rig).
