5/27 Seal Beach Hali-button
 

Wednesday is now my official day off for Summer. Launched into lil ankle slappers and little more wind and chop than I hoped for. Seal Beach is less than 4 miles from home, so real easy on the gas.:D Paddled out toward the Federal breakwall with a plug on one side and a sabiki on the other. Picked up a pair of perfect candy bar greenbacks. Flylined one and traprigged the second. Set up on a reef that comes up from 45 to 35 feet. Sculpin eats my lil greenie.......big mouth bastard!

slim pickins with a couple sandbass on plastics. Head in to fish along the beach. short halibut, calicos along the jetti on plastics. School of these came through. hooked a couple that were too close to call, but saw a couple obvious keepers, one bigger model rolled in front of me and had one twice the size follow a hooked fish to the surface. Fun morning, landed at 11. ........until Next week.

the big question
 

:) Hey Iceman are you plainning on haveing a SanO in June it was a lot of fun in May I wont that big flattie to show up again. Moondoggy OUT-----

That's a salmon.

Salmonella?

If you were to paddle toward the cargo ship on the far right you would come across a reef marker. I caught a bunch of sandies there last time out and got one rockfish. Next time out I am heading south to Surfside for halibut.

Nice Corvina.

Thanks, I did not know.

I thought you were joking ............WSB, some under 28 inches ...............some over.

Ankle slappers? Your ankles would be slappin' your forehead if you launched through that one.:eek::D

I was close.:cool:

Nice...will have to get up there one day and learn from the Master...:notworthy:

It's just a matter of timing the sets.:doh: Sounds like a good time Andy. Congrats on getting out.

The picture is just north of the pier right? Do you park in the big parking lot in front of the pier?

Nice going Andy!!



The parking down there seems to be more of a problem than the launching for me. Andy do you have a magic sticker?
