HESBROS
06-14-2011, 09:44 PM
Decided to take the "Hesbros" out Monday, so I invited John and Robert and they were both up for the trip. We were meeting at 0200 in LN since I was pondering a Cat trip. Rich and I arrived at 0100 and got the boat in the water and discussed our game plan. We decided a local trip would be best since it is the first trip of the season for the boat. John and Robert showed up at 0200 as planned. They boarded and we were on our way to pick up some bait.

We cleared the harbor and there was a south southeast wind coming up the coastline. We got a half scoop of squid and a half scoop of dine and headed down the coast to the newport reefs.
We arrived our destination and started fishin in the darks in hope of hooking up one of the local WSB. Dawn cane and went and we had no WSB, Rich hooked into something of some size but lost it after a short battle.
We kept at it and Rich got a couple Sandras.

Not sure what time it was when I decided we would go play with the cuda so we headed west and found the fleet a few miles outside Angeles Gate.
We started off using live bait and they were biting.
Rich was the first to get one to the boat.

There was steady action on the bites, but not the landing. John and robert were hooking uo but having a lil trouble getting them to the boat.....Hmmmm, not the surf?
Well John decided to use his faithful LC......
Hoook Up!!

By the time we headed in, we were all throwing an LC....What a blast! I also got a few cuda....
We decided to call it a day around 1330-1400 as the westerly wind was coining up.

All in all a fun day of fishing and friends.
John, thanks for going and great fishing with you as usual.
Robert, you always make things fun, even when the catching is slow. You are welcome on the Hesbros anytime!
