Launced at 2pm landed at 630pm. right outside the middle buoy i got a ton of candybar greenies..when i made it out in 100-150'+ there were thick streams just off the bottom of sardines. go to the spot, drop the jig first time..& 1 crank..& POW! only it's u know who's brother again of course wasting my time during the power-hour...I finally get him up, and the damn hooks are buried all over his huge tail..it took quite some time to remove..but finally got him cleaned up 100% & happy..(For wasting my time, I was hoping for one or two of those left over consolation prizes Scallywag, but he didnt have any extra jewlery to share!) still 2 guys out when i called it quits..Guess i really do need that recipe Yani..

That Pelican probably got fed double!..I gave him & his buddy a ton of my leftover macs on my way in too..then as i finished loading up my gear the rain started to drizzle..

There was a squid/light boat off LJ last night from 7-9 or so PM; I don't think anything showed so they left. I couldn't see exactly where in LJ, I was up the line off Del Mar. Didn't see any squid up that way either.

The birds were about the only things that I could get to bite. I caught my personal best cormorant. A real trophy. That poor bird got the hook in the beak and the mac was hanging on the line, outside of its mouth. Two pelicans beat the ever-lovin' crap out of it as I tried to get it to the yak. I don't know if they were going for the mac or trying to kill the cormorant. By the time I got him to the yak he was super pissed and wanted to take out his frustration on me. After a few vicious stabs from his beak I got him under control and removed the hook. As soon as I released him the pelicans started after my other bait. Stupid birds.

I was out for under 5 hours. Black Sea Bass on my first mac in 90', around 100#. Got the hook back and an easy release-fish decompressed on his own. Had another nice pickup in shallower near the kelp, but the fish wedged my slider in a rock. Finished the day w/a T-Pup. Still tons of life, w/the Sea Lions preferring to feed along side the porpoise over ambushing our baits. I too fed the pelican.

But I forgot, there are no fish in La Jolla. If you don't show up next week to the hearing, then what we consider a tough day now will be the best we can hope for in the future.
