South Bay Surf

[DockRat]

Hit the beach 6:30 to 8 pm. Too much head wind to get the LC going so switched to the Krocadile. No Doormats but did C&R 3 YFCs.

I noticed a loop in the spool so I cast it far then backed up 40' to let line out. Fixed the problem then started to reel in the slack then 'Fish On' After a 5 minute fight this wing hooked Bat Ray about 16" wide shows up on the sand Lol

Hey DR,
It's always cool when you are a fixing a problem, with your line out, and then when you go to reel in there's a surprise on the other end...:Big Grin:
Later,

Always fun to get a Surprise in every package.. I wish we had some other species to pick up here.

Got some big time high tides in the late pm starting. Surf was small and barely breaking.
Eel grass almost every cast. Water clarity looked so so.
