Salton Sea report!
Well I didn't catch a seabass like everyone else did this weekend but I did catch some tilapia out at the salton sea! Don't everybody get too excited now..........!
Left the house about 2:00am and arrived at the sea about 5:30 and it was already warm...but nice. Got all ready to launch, and noticed the people on shore already catching'em 2 at a time..... Before even getting wet I was already suprised to find that it didn't stink like hell...actually it didn't smell at all. And the air wasn't thick with flies...there was one here and there but no more than you would find in your own backyard. The water appeared to be clean and was clear in the shallows. Fishing wise, couldn't find any fish deeper than about 3' it seemed like all the fish were packed up tight to the shoreline. I think I read the o2 is in the shallows close to the beach from the wave action....or something like that.... Night crawlers are king for this place, couldn't get a single fish on the gulp sandworm....and almost everything eats a sandworm!!! Found a shallow spot next to the jetty and was getting them pretty steady at times. We ended up catching all we could ever want even after releasing the smaller ones. We fished until 10:30, it got unbelieveably hot! Strapping the kayaks down in 100 degree heat is not fun. I was sweat'n so hard it was hard to see. Yep, was a fun trip, Id do it again just maybe when it's not so damn hot ! Tony. |
