I wanted to hit castaic for a few hours before work since this is around the time last year when they started to go off, and today they bit bigtime. I trolled to the BL to find a few boats all in the depths that i wanted to be so i opted to anchor off one of high spots over there and It was a steady pick throughout the morning. i farmed a ton of fish and at one point i had 3 in the cooler, and missed 7 others, Not a good ratio.

the morning bite was very subtle, but as it got later, they came up higher, and got more aggressive. my last fish of the day went sideways on me, i don't think he knew he was hooked until i swung real good. Fishing was phenomenal today, they weren't the biggest, but there was plenty of action.

all fish caught on 6lb floro and small split shot w/ fresh dead 'dines...go get em!
buoy line got closed for work so they kicked everyone off it, thank god i alraedy was sitting pretty anchored real nice, so every boat scattered in search of a new spot, I finished off my limit and gave up my spot to some folks.

light line seems to be key right now. you cant go wrong starting out light presentation, like 4 or 6 lb, mosquito hooks, and split shots, set your drag and slightly move your bait every few minutes.

they weren't the larger models we like, i think there was 2 or 3 bigger ones..It was some fun stuff on the light tackle. Gallions has the fresh dead dines. see you out there soon.
