If any body went fishing to day post a thread

Nic D · 02-24-2010, 09:38 AM

i know one guy from this forum that went today

Dan · 02-24-2010, 10:51 AM

at ease...

I fished this morning from 4-8:30. No bendos as far as I could see. Decent amount of bait moving around, good current, saw a T slapping some macs. No signs of squid. maybe something is happening in the afternoon/evening?

lamb · 02-24-2010, 11:37 AM

that's a noble request!

And a great idea!

I heard some guy had his squid prediction receptors all fired up, and the whole armada showed up at LJ.

What Dan said - friggen cold. No squid, no nothing other than baby Ts.

CALI HOOKUP you owe us a report now.

I guess it still beats working, but you probably have to work now

Absolutely beautiful out there today - but aside from the expected T-shark action, know of nothing else hitting. Lots of candybar greenbacks in smallish schools all over the place. Water cold, with slight offshore that calmed to nothing at around 8:30. Wind shifted to onshore around 10ish, but remained slight until noon. No significant surf on entry or exit. Note: Impossible to drive onto the beach, so be prepared to haul your stuff.

BTW: Found a phone in bathroom area in early AM. If yours, shoot me a PM w/ description.

Lost a big fish to a trap rig malfunction.

Hey its part of the game, maybe next time.
----------------------------

Removed a ringed hook from a pelicans neck.

-We noticed this pelican had a #2 ringed flyliner hook stuck in the front of his neck. It didn't look good, and I'm sure the bird had problems dealing with it.

Rick dangled a huge live mackerel in his hand to lure him closer as I waited along side with a gloved hand and a pair of pliers.

We missed on the first and second shot, but I grabbed him by his beak on the 3rd attempt.
I carefully removed the hook from his neck without causing anymore trauma.

The bird looked a little surprised, but seem fine afterwards. We fed him the rest of the bait tank and headed back to the barn.

Launced at 2pm landed at 630pm. right outside the middle buoy i got a ton of candybar greenies..when i made it out in 100-150'+ there were thick streams just off the bottom of sardines. go to the spot, drop the jig first time..& 1 crank..& POW! only it's u know who's brother again of course wasting my time during the power-hour...I finally get him up, and the damn hooks are buried all over his huge tail..it took quite some time to remove..but finally got him cleaned up 100% & happy..(For wasting my time, I was hoping for one or two of those left over consolation prizes Scallywag, but he didnt have any extra jewlery to share!) still 2 guys out when i called it quits..Guess i really do need that recipe Yani..

That Pelican probably got fed double!..I gave him & his buddy a ton of my leftover macs on my way in too..then as i finished loading up my gear the rain started to drizzle..

Nice of you guys to chime in. Thanks
I wish the fishing were a bit better and the weather a bit warmer though.

haha

There was a squid/light boat off LJ last night from 7-9 or so PM; I don't think anything showed so they left. I couldn't see exactly where in LJ, I was up the line off Del Mar. Didn't see any squid up that way either.

dgax65 · 02-24-2010, 09:36 PM

The birds were about the only things that I could get to bite. I caught my personal best cormorant. A real trophy. That poor bird got the hook in the beak and the mac was hanging on the line, outside of its mouth. Two pelicans beat the ever-lovin' crap out of it as I tried to get it to the yak. I don't know if they were going for the mac or trying to kill the cormorant. By the time I got him to the yak he was super pissed and wanted to take out his frustration on me. After a few vicious stabs from his beak I got him under control and removed the hook. As soon as I released him the pelicans started after my other bait. Stupid birds.

greenscales · 02-24-2010, 11:30 PM

I was out for under 5 hours. Black Sea Bass on my first mac in 90', around 100#. Got the hook back and an easy release-fish decompressed on his own. Had another nice pickup in shallower near the kelp, but the fish wedged my slider in a rock. Finished the day w/a T-Pup. Still tons of life, w/the Sea Lions preferring to feed along side the porpoise over ambushing our baits. I too fed the pelican.

But I forgot, there are no fish in La Jolla. If you don't show up next week to the hearing, then what we consider a tough day now will be the best we can hope for in the future.
