Well, I had 3 hours to kill this morning since I was down in S.D. I got to the beach at 9:15 and didn't leave until 12:15.
When I arrived the waves were crashing so hard today that it was making all the water in the entire jetty go back into the lagoon...:Shocked:
I knew that high tide had passed and I would wait it out to see if my instincts were correct about the conditions in relations to the tide heading out.
I was absolutely correct, and although I didn't bring in any fish today I did hook up to 2 but lost them both..:Sad:
They were both halibuts and 1 of them had jumped out of the water, about 20 feet out and to the left, that was my first hook up after 2 tries. I say it was about 18 inches, before it came off my LC110 in zebra sardine.
I was using my older rod and reel since I was getting nothing with my new stuff.
Even though I didn't get nothing I am really pleased with myself. All the help everyone has provided to me with thier reports and pm's are paying off..:Big Grin:
SO A BIG THANKS TO ALL OF YOU THAT HIT THE SURF & CONTRIBUTE YOUR EXPERIENCES.....:Big Grin:
Take care & God Bless all of you.
