Well after not catching any big spotties during the SWBA Rnd 1, I decided to see what was wrong that day and headed dwon to NPH for a trip on foot at about 1200. I left the heavy rain and t-storms in West Covina and was headed to the coast where winds were forecast 15-20. On the drive down it was obvious there were some storms coming ashore down there but I kept going. After arriving the rain would come and go, but the wind was cranking out of the nw 15-20 gusts to 30 maybe. Took a few minutes to decide on if I would even try, but what the heck, I am already here!
This is what I found at 9th St. where I was starting.

One of the ropes on the flag pole broke shortly afte the video and the flag fell to the ground right at the waters edge so I went and picked it up and folded it and put it back on their deck.
I stayed there for a spell but get notta, conditions were unforgiving. I worked my way up the 15th street and this was the conditions up there.

It was not letting up but I stuck it out and got this nice spottie at 1.81 lbs.

Was not long and I got this one at .98 lbs.

I got another that was about 11.5 inches and did not snap a photo. I worked back to 9th for no more fish. At least I got three and one was decent.
