9.5 hours for one spottie.
7:30 launch from lifeguard station. Took a while to make bait but ended up with six sardines and threw lots of macks to the seals. Swells were not friendly. All the kayakers I started to paddle out of the jetty with turned back almost immediately. Apparently the word got out that the dines were plentiful cause all of a sudden I was surrounded by a pod of dolphins and I dont know how many seals. The dolphins were so preoccupied that a pair dove right under my bow. With all the bait fish getting owned by the mammals I figured anything worth catching would be laying low during the feeding frenzy (was I wrong?)so I took out an old camera and took some zapruder film quality footage before the battery quit.

I ended up braving the swell and made it out of the harbor. C rigged a dine and trolled around the buoy and drifted for a while for no results. Trolled to CDM. Got my line tangled in my rudder. Ended up getting sick from dealing with that mess so I decided to head back in to recover. Threw my Swim jig around the marine laboratory and got my skunk buster. Met up with andrewtp and hit the moored boats. He found a hole got several spotties and sandies. I only got a huge mack and my swimbait tail bit off.
