Ja Jolla 6-17
 

Finished teaching last week so I decided to fork out the $70 in gas to get to Lj. :luxhello:Its been so long since I've been out that I forgot what time the sun gets up. I was a little disappointed to see gray light as I was passing through o-side.

Adi saved my a$$ when I got there as I realized that my fully loaded tackle tray was sitting right where I left it...at home. :iamwithstupid:Thanks Adi:you_rock:

Long story short, I got two really good :yt::yt:zings in 140 feet of H2o on flylined macks. They were pornstar size macs, my hooks were 2/0 and I don't think big enough to stick into what was biting them. :farmer:

On an oddity note, I jigged up about 8 squid in 110' of H2o in the early morning. I sent 'em back down hoping for a delicious wsb, but only ended up getting an assortment of misc junk fish. I will go on record as saying that although I did not catch any fish, this will be the beginning of another EPIC bite that I will inevitably miss.:sifone:

Heres some pics of the day if you are bored.

Sorry you weren't able to catch the exotics. At least you were in the zone:) . Liked watching the video and your style of paddling.:luxhello:

Great report!

You caught Nemo's cousin!!!!!!lol

Good seeing you Steveooo.

I got to watch our new kayak fishing guide going out... :) Your boat handled nicely those 2 big ones. The surf wasn't too big yesterday, but it had some bite to it, didn't it.

Bait all over.

No fish tho.

I was reading 65-68 temps.

good report Steve!

Please tell me you sent Mr. Sand Dab back down...talk about Ling Cod Candy Bar.

Either you have Andre the Giant hands or those are the smallest rockfish Ive just about ever seen! ;)

Thanks for the report, beats the hell outta workin!

Evan

Thanks for the report.
Looks like lots of finger food.

Thanks for the report.. Surf was definitely up though. I was expecting to see ankle slappers (1-2ft from wetsand.com), but looking at the surfcam the night before I knew I was going to getting wet. I took one to the chest after Jasmin. Nothing but macs for me.. Landed at 0900 to open face 3fters.
