Very fishy out there and yet I never saw any bait or boils. I started out going west of the pier. Came across a very small mako finning along. Turned south and found the pesky bait grabbers, boneys? barracuda? yt too small to choke it down. My first YT was a little after Kurt's, 100 yards inside of him. I just ate my Friday YT, last night and planned to release any today, so #1 released. Put out another greenback and on again, thought for sure another lil YT, but ended up being the biggest calico I have caught in a long time....released. Threw the 7X for some BIG barracuda, hooked up again on the mac. This YT is blowing red smoke, so I grabbed it by the tail and found the hook in it's gut, but it must have tore a gill, so #2 came home with me. Kurt and I headed in and I just trolled the bl/w mac 7x. BENDO on the 9 footer. Kurt calls it a cuda and I say "I don't think so" 10-12 pound yt, released. Good fishin, with lots a happy campers on he beach
