Big Bay -- 2/15/21 -- No Fish, Nice Pedal

[FullFlavorPike]

Took advantage of a rare opportunity to go for a tandem pedal in the Oasis with my wife and not the toddler. Covered a bunch of the big bay with 2.5 to 3 hours of pedaling, but couldn't get anything more than a few short bites on a green swimbait. No fish, but it sure beat working! Getting a late start probably had a lot to do with the lack of fish, but you take them as you get them. Did manage to pluck a few pieces of floating garbage and a pristine Quiksilver hat out of the water

I have seen some good reports of people catching barracuda in the bay, and I trolled an underspin for a loooooong time hoping for some of that action, but no love from slimey boys. I like the idea of catching cuda on light tackle, but I've never managed to get one in the big bay. Oh well, try try again.


Anybody here know what the rule is on going near the naval base? I don't want to get chased off by an angry sailor in a zodiac, but there's some structure over yonder I like the look off.
