It was hiding right in front of my eyes. Rick went diving so he doesn't even know exactly where this one is at, just the stretch ;)
I arrived around 9am and Conditions were awesome despite the salad. lots of bait surfacing. Saw a calico go airbourne along with some smelt. and i think i saw a big hali jump but i couldn't tell. birds working along the stretch.
First i started at a spot ive been hitting recently. Started off with Swimbait wasn't feeling the 4in so i went to 5/8 kroc to get smaller mouthed fish (croaker, smelt, mac, cuda) to get the skunk off. also too weedy for the LC. Hook up with a jumping smelt 3rd cast. self release. After that i worked the area for 20 mins. the bait stopped surfacing and the weeds got worse. Time to move.
Took awhile to find a zone with out grass. New spot found. Switched up to the Aurora baby croaker LC. Pretty much went wide open on a great variety for the next hour. All with out pliers! lol
