Thresher in Oceanside

[Dirty Curti]

Headed out Sunday from the Harbor and paddled South to Buc Pipe. I usually make bait at the pier but this day there was nothing to be had.

No worries though I figured I would run into some on my way. Only made one big mac on the way in fact it was a whopper. Anyway, continued to my target and as luck would have it all of the bait you could handle was everywhere around the Buc pipe. Made a few and pinned one on for the top and another for the bottom.

Continued to fish for some Sandies or Calicos as I waited and then the scream of the real comes. I look back to see what the fuss was from and I see a big splash behind me. The pursuit is on. Along with a fumble reeling in my down line I managed to get it done.
