Made a quick move.

Conditions were bad in the morning, so they made several moves throughout the day.

The moves resulted in some decent bass fishing.

Fun's over for the day. Till next time.
All in all Fishing was just decent today. For those that knew how to fish the anchovies, limits of calico bass was achievable. I must of caught over 40 bass, but only 12 or 13 were keepers. The bonita and barracuda made a brief showing, but there weren't any large numbers today. There were plenty of whitefish, blueperch, and sheephead caught today by other fishermen. It was a rough crossing on the way over, but the ride home was much nicer. The sun was out, but there was a cool breeze all day long. All in all a nice day to be out on the water. Fish count according to sportfishingreport.com was 32 anglers who caught 10 Barracuda, 30 Whitefish, 22 California Sheephead, 126 Calico Bass, 14 Bonito, and 102 Blue Perch. Thanks for reading and goodluck on your next fishing adventure, Pokerface. Btw I won jp with a decent calico and gave it to crew for all their hard work. They deserved it imo for doing such a great job today.
