Hit up NPH yesterday, before I had some work to do in Costa Mesa.
Arrived at 5:45 a.m. and got about 12-14 hits.
Only managed to land 3 of them, they are so darn quick!

First one was about 13”.

2nd one was about 11”.

3rd was about 9”.

There were about 40-50 of these birds in the harbor.
There was tons of bait and the birds were so distracted that they would almost swim into my legs under water.

I ended up leaving about 9:00 and on the way back to the truck I was acutely aware of the beautiful flowers at peoples homes.
ENJOY!

This is an LC 100 that Tre won at the HG4 event.
It swam pretty shallow and I had to reel in pretty quick to get the same action as the 110. I got no hits after an hour of using.

Have a Great Day!

Hola Pistola!

Hey my brotha!...Roberto!........you've been busy out-in-the-salt my friend!
It's been more of a Perch's world "out there" in the surf lately!
For such a slow season...you've been able to beach quite a nice variety pack of fish in your last couple of week's fishing efforts my friend!:Thumbs Up: WTG!

Give me a heads up when your tide conditions flip in a positive direction and I will do the same with you brotha!
It was good to hook-up in the salt with you the other day....keep up the good work soldier!

Thanx for the fishing report and all of the botanical porn! :Wink:

Some people just stop and smell the roses.....while others stick there noses into everything... along the path!
Our life's path is our journey......let's get nosey! :Cool:

13 hits with 3 hook-ups... Not bad for a 3 hour session. The hit-and-misses are "=(" but it definitely does makes the fishing session a whole lot better than no hit-and-misses :LOL: Thanks for the report.

Good stuff right there bromigo....... who says that when you are a hard working SOB like yourself you still don't have the time to give a few fish a free lip piercing and a photo session? Nice pics of the NPH scenery too! What a great way to start your day dude!

Thanks for taking the time to inspire everyone to hit it hard before the winter slam hits us !

Roberto,

You've opened up my eyes to a new way to get into theright frame of mind. An attitude adjustment before work might just work a lot better than an attitude adjustment after work........I just wonder now if I'd ever make it to work? :LOL:

Thanks for the report Robert and I'm hoping to have the opportunity to hit the beach with you guys in a couple of weeks after I take care of some business. :Thumbs Up:

Fall spotties are cautious..

They no longer have that boldness from summer

It was a great morning.
There was almost no sounds at all, except for the gulls, people in NP must like to sleep in...:Rolls Eyes:
I have to head back there next week, so I will give it another try...:Wink:
Have a good weekend,

Arturo,
I am actually going to take my oldest friend and his youngest son out for a session in the salt.
They like the fresh water thing so this will be a nice change of pace for them...:Smile:
Hope you do well this weekend,

Francisco,
It's been really slow at both places. If you're lucky, you'll get a shorty right now.
Plus, after the rain, it probably looks like chocolate milk right now...:Sad:
BUT, I will head out that way soon and give a report...:Wink:
Take Care Brotha,
Robert

Good to read some positive signs of fish still around and you getting time to find them.
Sorry I won't be submitting any reports for a while. Well unless you want updates on the house remodel :ROFL:

Nice pre-work bass session!
Congrats on the spotties. I've only caught a few spotties ever but I do remember that they were really fun to catch.
Also, that's a nice assortment of catches!
Thanks for the report and pics!
