Redondo Red Tide
UGLY...it was like someone mixed Chocolate Milk with Red Wine...the Mirage drive fins would make a small black area each time you peddled and out in the deeper water it seemed like it was down about three feet below the surface...yuck...!
Fishing sucked...tons of marks on the meter and no real biting fish... I found two small spots of fish that wanted to eat...one held some small rockfish and sand dabs...the other had a few nice Reds for dinner... There was a previous thread on releasing rockfish...I use this basket and about 75' of rope...just drop the fish in the water and then the basket over the top and let it go...as it's dropping I'll usually be sending my baited rig or jig down...once all the rope is out I'll pull it back up and stow it for the next little guys... I'm on a Pro Angler so there's plenty of room for this rig...The upside down hook and a weight is the simplest way to go for releasing the undersize rockfish but it requires a dedicated rod and reel...as does the Shelton or the Rocklease... I had a milk crate that we used on my skiff with 80' of rope...it worked great for releasing multiple fish for a few anglers if needed...
