Thread: New Years PB!!! 1/2/15

  1. #1

    Default New Years PB!!! 1/2/15

    Took advantage of the beautiful conditions before it turns up.
    Arrived around 3pm and started picking off smelts with the LC. Then i get a solid bite on a slow twitching retrieve with the LC. Starts taking drag... I'm thinking hali. It fought awesome and when i got it in the skinny i realized it was a croaker. A PB YFC

    18.5"



    One more of this brute


    The very next cast i'm thinking maybe there is a school around... Got hit withing 10 seconds.. Another nice one at 16"!



    Moved to another AO and switched to the DS picked off a
    20" Hali


    Switched to the salt minnow and caught one after the beautiful sunset. It was a rat calico and I called it a night at last light. Short and sweet session. I'm starting to dig the evening bite.

    Congratulations on your new PB YFC! WTG!!!

    I think that most people underestimate the YFC .... they are a "great" fighting fish and have fooled me on many occasions!

    It appears that your 2016 season is off to a great start Sir.

    I look forward to many more reports from you this season Sean. Keep up the good work!

    Thanx for the fish report with pic's!

    SP Dan <"))><

    Nice fish! Yeah those croakers are really strong for their size. Super fun to catch. They are related to that other strong fish from the Gulf states, the Channel Bass/Redfish. Kinda looks like them too..
