I had to do some work over in Orange County yesterday for a couple of hours so decided to hit the surf and see what was biting.
I arrived at Carlsbad at 6:00 sharp to beautiful weather, maybe 5 mph winds, almost no surf and small swells...:Big Grin:
I started working my LC 110 in Sardine for about a mile stretch of beach with no luck at all. I decided to switch rods, that were carolina rigged with 2" grubs in Pumpkin Seed. I didn't get any bites until I was almost all the way back to my starting point by the jetty, South of Tamarack Street,

I ended up getting 4 of these. I started to think it was the same one cause they were only 1/2" apart in size, if that...:LOL:
The tide started coming in, along with the wind and surf, so I took off North to take care of my work.
Well now it's 12:00 and I had decided to hit up NPH. My last venture there wasn't to good, but I have to get in on all the fun over there before everyone takes all the SBB, Hali's...etc...You know who you are..Hehe
I started off on the North side of Lido Island, facing P.C.H. My first stop resulted in nothing, with the exception of a dog barking at me from it's porch.
I went South to some little playground and into my second cast I get hit, by what I believe is a small Halibut, but I didn't hook it. I tossed it back in the same area and it hit my LC again...but again, no hook up...:Sad:
That would be my only bites of the afternoon. I think I covered about a quarter of the island and I was really surprised no one gave me a hard time about me fishing in front of the houses and between their docks.
I ended the day over in Aliso Viejo. I arrived about 4:00 to huge, shore breaking waves. I decided to take a little nap for about an hour and see if water conditions would change. They didn't, but I decided to try casting out for about an hour with another Carolina Rig with bigger weight and hook....but no luck.
I decided to call it a day and head home, where dinner just came off the stove and I gobbled it up, took a shower and hit the sack!
Take Care All & God Bless All Of You,
