4/23 Belmont Shores

[fishshep]

Just had a thought the other day to check my "Sports Chalet, Action Pass

Points Record " since I bought some new dive boots last week .

Noticed an E-Mail coupon for ten bucks that was supposedly sent to me

two months ago, for racking up 300pts. http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif Must have deleted it http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif

Went to Sports Chalet to see if they could give me the credit anyway !!!

Wanted to get some new BH-63,s for fishing today,weather they could or

not http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_question.gif Turned out , Manager said Ok !!! http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif Bought one 4in.

pack of the "Bloody Mackeral " 2- of the 3in. one,s and 1- of a pack of

4in.Bh-63,s all of which cost me $2.40 over the ten Dollar Coupon !!! http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

ALL I could think about after that was throwing those 3in. Bloody Mac,s

for Halibut today !!! http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif

Arrived at Belmont Shores and feet landed on the sand 6.30am.

http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_surprised.gif Could not believe it !!! there was bait in the water only 25yards out

from where I was standing in the water throwing the swimmy !!! but no

birds diving !!! Dudes on the Pier were Sabiki Jig rigging live bait into

their buckets too, but no Halibuts were being caught at this time

though !!!

After throwing for about an hour, figured no bites

because the water was to cold ? So, took off to go try the Alamitos Bay

side. Water was warmer in the bay, but absolutely no bait at all that I

could see http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif

Decide to go back and fish Belmont Shores area thinking the water and

therefore the bite might be better http://www.scsurffishing.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_idea.gif Two casts back into it SLAM !!!

the area .
