La Jolla 8.18.18
 

Launched at 5:30am. Bait very hard to find....made 2 spanish macks and lost both, 1 to a hard, short bite and the other to bottom.

Gave up on bait and tied on a 100 gram sardine colored flat fall and went 2 miles out from the point and 1 mile west to look for new structure to fish. Found plenty of structure between 90-175 ft of water and everytime i dropped down, i had a hit.

Very little kelp meant i didnt lose any lures for a change.
Water temp went down a couple degrees averaging 76.
Didnt really see anyone hook up on anything special. Divers reported not seeing much.

Took 2 calicos, 4 rockfish, and 1 sheepshead home. Released all bass over 20". All fish caught on 1 flatfall

You are aware that one of those fish is out of season, right?






































































































JK :D

Nice Haul!!

Lol I had to do a double take on the photo. You got me!

Nice haul on the flat fall! Beats dragging out frozen squid.:jig:

Ha! Ya got me. Had to go look up fish regs to make sure sheepshead regs didnt change on me. They have weird regulation on how you can filet them on a boat.

A fish STILL aint a problem.

Nice!

Thanks for the report! We had trouble finding bait last Thursday. Nice job on the flatfall.
