Flying

Showed up at Perris just after 9am. It was already getting hot and smoke was in the air from the fires. Things weren't looking too good but hey I'm here. Just as I'm stretching the old legs out TJ comes driving up. The bummer thing is he's going home already.We chatted for a little bit. I guess the shoreline fishing was tough and uncomfortable with the weather. Things got much better once I got the tube in the water.
I had gotten spanked the last 2 times I tubed the east side so this time I kicked to the west side of the island. Today I was fishing plastic worms. For me that means T-rigged 7" Robos. I started out in Power Cove(lot 11) with a MMII and worked that around water slide point and across to the island for nothing. Once at the Island I switched to the Softshell Craw(:???: but its green:Confused:) and worked that to the west side. It took awhile but fish #1 hit around 11am.
Its a decent size too

Its much bigger too :Envious:

He keeps my hopes up a little but I'm beat and start to head back when #4 stops me.

Got nothing else on the way back in but I was satisfied.
Also broke the 200 mile mark today in the tube.

I think my body is about broke doing it too but pretty soon my Poppy Pass will start paying me back:LOL:
