Went North today & drifted sardens till 0930 for nada. Had a HUGE hookup on a 5" swimbait that poped my 15lb Hybrid like it was nothing. Must admit I was totaly unprepaird at the time with the rod in one hand while I was setting my other rod in a diferent holder

ops: Oh well. Tons of perfect greenbacks by the pier and pleanty of sardens. Coming in Sun I saw a few real nice halibut crusing around right at the surf line 50yds south of the launch. Very cool 8) . MKNOTT
