5/21 Brown Rockfish
Made a short trip kayaking Saturday fishing on the inside kelp for a couple
hours. Pretty slow overall, fished plastics and released a few smaller calicos. Think there were some yellows chasing bait around, couldn't get bit on the iron though. Ended up running into these Brown Rockfish, fishing plastics/ bottom in 60' at the kelp edge for the 30 minutes that the current cooperated. I think the far one is a grass rockfish. Fillet board sink shot! Does anyone know what the buggy thing here is called? They were inside the fish stomachs, and they eat all my lobster bait out here in lobster season, I hate 'em - I didn't know rockfish love them. Freshwater Note: I landed this 4 lb bass on trout tackle and 4 lb line while fishing with the kids at Santee on Sunday. A respectable battle which got my blood pumping anyway! The bass hit a dropshot 3" plastic. For those of you with kids, the bluegill bite on mealworms is great now. I fill a bucket with water and bluegill - let the kids catch fish, play in the bucket, feed the ducks, and also hit the park's playgrounds. Good times!
