Dana Pt, 11-14-11
I woke up late and didn't get onto the water until 7:15. Headed straight for the Pipe. The offshore wind was really stiff and made for some sloppy conditions. Between the wind chop, south swell, north swell and boat wakes it was not a day for the faint of stomach. Made for a pain in the neck paddle too. By 8:30 the offshore died and by 9:00 the south wind kick in just as strong. Water was 61.1º - 61.5º and not so clear. Fog sat on the horizon, but never came in.
Anyways, I started in 45' and by the time I hit 50' I was getting bit. The first hour or so I got six bass. The second 2 hrs got me 2 more bass, a short butt, and a tree fish. Plus, I missed a lot of fish too. Hot baits were, 4" redfish Flurries and 5" MC dropshot bait (rigged on an Owner Sledhead) in key lime. Runner up was the 4" Flurry in Baitball. Also rans included 3" Flurries in gold chovie and sea food. I probably could've picked away with the Baitball, but the wind got really annoying, so I headed in at 11:00. I think the fish are finally adjusting to the lower temps. As evidence, most of my bass were calicoes, and all but one of the bass were legal. Best fish going about 2lbs. Considering my fish count for my last 4 trips totaled 9 bass, I considered today pretty decent fishing.
