Sweet! Looks killer to be able to cruise around the harbor like that. Open seas too!
Glad to see she got the big one! Now she'll want to go out there more with you guys.

Yes today was not all about the fishing and hopefully the wife will join us more often.

She got a nice looking spottie. Anything over 16 inches is a prize to me. If she comes back in a few years it'll be an inch or two longer.

Yes there are some quality Spotties in there and all of ours go back after a quick photo to grow bigger!!!!

Looks like another great day in NPH! Congrats to the Mrs. on that big spottie!! As for the mermaids, I think I spotted 2 of them sunning themselves on the sand near a dock we visited yesterday!!

Steve, did the water seem to be cooler than usual for this time of year?

I missed seeing the 2 sunning them selves as I was trying to determine if that was you all on the dock.

As for the water yes it was colder maybe due to the fact that we have had the continuous marine layer keeping the sun off the water early in the am. I can't recall mornings with the layer making it's way all the way into my territory near Pasadena/ La Canada in August.

With the big Tide movements today the water clarity varied drastically as we moved around and made color selection more difficult!

I am sure it was great to be out fishing with the family. Congrats on your catch. Thanks for sharing on FNN

Thanks as always for the replies!!!

Hey Steve, that's a really nice first picture with my house there in the background. Why didn't you stop by to say hello... didn't you see that I was home with the yatch parked there?

Wow, you even got the wife out there this time!
Great to see you guys spending some quality family time together.
Nice job on the variety of catches, very cool.
What I wanna know, is how did you modify my swimbaits?

Hopefully, I'll see you & Brad on Sunday.

Thanks Arthur,

A family that plays together stays together!!!!!

As for the modification you will have to wait. We have several combinations!!!!

I left a voice mail on your cell!!!!!

Very nice day...I like the variety. I couldn't tell you the difference between a spottie and a smoothie...unless one was a dog and the other was something at Jamba Juice.

I like the pics...

Nice angling!

Thanks

Looks like a fun day with the family. Congrats to Leslie on the nice spottie.

Beware of mermaids... they are evil.

I would not want to be caught with one of the evil creatures!!!!

Looking forward to your next Harbor report!!!!

Great job everybody!

Thanks for the reply!

Great report Steve. I am glad to see you were able to get Leslie out on the water. Nice Spottie Leslie, it was a fat one.
