Sat 6/14....second time out at LJ...no fish

[momo fish]

Thanks for report. I'm a firm believer in the greenies as well for almost all gamefish based on others and my own experience. Won't start trolling till I get some. Case in point I had mostly Spanish and 2 greenies last week and after 2 hours of trolling the "lively" Spanish for nada decided to try the greenie and sure enough got hit in less than five minutes on WSB. They are stronger swimmers and stay more active than other bait for me. I hate catching them on sabiki but based in another report will try a simple dropper loop as they always get tangled no matter how much weight or how hard I pull.

I prefer to fish the green macks, but if they are scarce fish the bait you can catch. I caught a yt last Wednesday on a surface iron that must have been hunting all through the water column; it had squid, rockfish, and smelt or grunion in it. It even had a small stone in it's stomach. My first kayak yt in LJ was on a jumbo smelt. Greenies are better, usually, but if you catch Spanish or even smelt you can still be in the game. Keep banging away at LJ and good things will happen.

I 2nd that I've caught many yellows on Spanish greenies are preferred cause there much hardier of a bait and seem to trigger a bite cause they act more lively even after trolling one for hours but that being said if there on the chew they will take anything
