Hey all. Been looking around on these forums for a while, reading lots of helpful info. Finally got a chance to get out in the ocean. Headed to Dana Point, launched at 0830 with a fellow member (Jbara). Threw some plastics in the bay for 20 mins with nothing. Headed out to the headlands. Picked up some greenbacks just outside of the bay. Fly lined a mac for about two hours and threw out my plastic for nada. Josh caught a little wsb and a small barracuda. Decided to switch my plastic to a scented z-man jerk shad. Immediately got bites on it. Caught a small sand bass, and a couple of greenies. Had another big sand bass on, just below the yak and a sea lion made it his lunch. Beginners initiation I guess
. Fished for a little while longer and the bite died. Fly lined on the way back and caught a decent sized sand bass. All in all, great time on the water. Hope to do it again soon. Thanks Josh!
