South Bat/Short Session

[fishshep]

Arrived at Torrance for a short 6am. to 10am session,to a little more

than three foot waves and three foot incoming.

It was a drop shot in the Trenches attack today, due to the waves.

Water was clear, and minimal weed between Topaz and the pier.

Beans were sliding here and there, but some good size ones though.

Hit that place hard, every ten- twenty feet. One bite, one Butt . http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif

Overcast the whole time I was there http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif If you can get there early

with clear weather, may produce better http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_idea.gif http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_question.gif

Nice clean water with some good drop offs to the trenches in some spots .

Started off with the Saltwater Powerbait thinking that might do the trick,

and went about 200 yards throwing that for nothing, then switched to a

Custom Marked Zoom Flute http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif and within ten casts with that

hooked into a short to beat the skunk !!! http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif

Great report and great pics!!! 4 hours and a short are a hell of a lot better than 4 hours at work!!! Interesting color on the Zoom. Don't think I have that one.

Nice job Daniel.......Good to see you back out in the surf. Cool customizing on those flukes.That area has been more of a grey light thing lately. Thanks for the heads up on the sliders.......This weekend I'm hitting the southbay myself.
