Hadn't been out in a while due to a torn rotator cuff!!! The shoulder has been killing me lately. Sucks, going from fishing 5 to 6 times a week to 0!!! But it is what it is i guess.

Was supposed to meet with a few friends from SD area today!!! Couldn't make it due to things having to get done around the house and being tired from cooking for 200 to 300 students and parents from my daughters school (PTA picnic for the entire school i was the cook)!!!

Got out for a bit this afternoon for a few hours (low tide) found a nice hole and started tossing out sand crabs!!! The beans loved them!!! Got 6 of them. All the corbina were 18 to 20 inches and fun as hell to catch!!! These are the first beans for me this year and i got 6!!! Made me

!!! Two of the fish were bleeding pretty bad due to deep hooks and hard hook sets!!! I invited those two over the house for dinner!!!

I aslo had alot of short bites, turnes out i was hooking the crabs wrong!!! I was hooking then through the head. After i got bit and reeled it in the ass of the crab was gone!!! I figured out they were perch and wanted the roe. So they were eating the asses off the crabs!!! After the tide was getting higher the bean bite slowed down so i went to the MORF grub and started to slay the perch!!! Most of them were about 6" to 8" but alot of fun none the less!!!

Did get slammed on the grub once, landed a 21" halibut with the MORF!!! that was cool.

The totals for the couple hours were.
beans=6
BSP=15 to 20
halibut=1

nuggets= plenty!!!

Here are the pics!!!

That's it for now, till next time!!! Tight lines to everyone!!!

nice beans, 6 in one day that tops my life's work still waiting for #6,
Location? I respect no comment if it is your spot. Plenty of work can go into a spot and get ruinied with to many fishermen. I wish people had more respect for other people spots many of mine were ruined simply by telling the wrong people, Remember the covina in the back bay? one night just the three long time people the next night 26 people showed and all took limits+
now it is few and far between!
