Capo Beach, 8-21-15
Landwhale and I launched from the ramp at 5:20 and headed for Capo Beach. It was dark with lots of boats milling about the ramp and bait barge. Once outside the jetty we cut in towards shore to keep away from said boats. Made into the area about 5:45 and started working misc. rock piles. Wind was calmish, but lots of chop was going on.
I started my pick with a micro calico. Once daylight hit I found a nice section of scattered high spots and pulled a decent legal calico and then a couple of sandies. Kept working south staying in the 20' range for 2 more. Eventually met up with Steve again (he was in tighter) and since the wind had really kicked up we decided to head back for Doheny and get out of the chop. Weather report had called for a 5mph South wind all morning. But, what we got was a really light south wind for about an hour and then white caps and annoyance there after. We stopped at the scattered pile and I picked off 3 more. We hit a couple more high spots on the way to Doheny which yielded missed bites for me and fish for Steve. Finally, we hit the outside boiler at Doheny. I missed a nicer one there. By this point both Steve and I had business to attended to at the ramp and called it an early morning at about 9:00. I really only fished 2 colors this morning. A 4" Bad Shad Paddlerz on a 3/8oz silver Warbait head and a 5" Sexy Mullet on the same head. I also fished Red Bone Paddlerz and a 4" Red Fish Flurry. But, these were on 1/2oz Warbait heads and there was way too much loose weed on the bottom to make them worth the effort. Though both did get bit. Reapplying the Hot Sauce made a difference today too as the fish had a tendency to short bite. So, while it was a short day, it was productive at least. Fun to fish with Steve as always and I look forward to wherever we decide to hit next week.
