Well, it was a fine turn out of some great peeps on the sand. A few guys that I've met for the first time also which was one of the primary reasons for having this event.
Anyway, all week the beach has been pretty clean with little to no salad. Of course, this night was totally the opposite! Salad galore! It all started as just loose grass and chopped salad, but turned into huge kelp monsters by the end of the evening.
Chip & Jay-Ray, Chad, his Dad and SoCal Bill... Squatch, Where's My Beer, Binh, Pinoyfisher, Andre, Longcast Joe, Jaws, Joel, Shark in the Dark, Ben, Jim, and ... Who am I missing? all battled the weeds until we couldn't take it anymore. Mike and Binh tried a new beach and found some cleaner conditions, but only found an eel so there was not much going on especially for a night that I thought it was going to go off! Oh well....
Thanks everyone for coming out! It was a pleasure fishing with you guys again even if the grinners didn't cooperate. It might have been much better if we got some more soak time in without the salad messing it up.
Have a great remainder of the weekend and thanks again for coming down. I'll get some pictures of the giveaway rod up here soon as I can. 5-6 weeks remaining to win this bad boy! Len (Skrilla) did an amazing job on it!
