Interesting day on the water for me. It was an amazing day, launched at about 9am small surf, blue skies, no wind. Got out looking for bait and wasted a lot of time looking for the infamous squirt found a lot of egg sacks instead. Got a couple fin baits and used those. The wind picked up current too. Decided to drop down a dead sardine at about 110ft just for a last ditch effort. Glad I did because this nice looking Ling decided to feast on my chovie. Got her up and in and started my pedal back. Right around the NW corned my pedal conked out and had to paddle from there. No worries amazing day none the least! For some reason they put caution tape up at the launch, no entry, not sure why. So, anyone got some good Ling Cod Recipes, let me know
