Limulus:
Got up early and hit the front of Mission Bay to fish the incoming, with high tide at 7am. First cast brought in a small spotty on a 4" sardine slashbait. A guy came over on a paddleboard and asked what it was. This is a fish, I replied. He paddled away and got in the way of a party boat that was heading out, eliciting a blow of the horn and some harsh words over loudspeaker from the captain.



Just after high tide, some sloppy bones came through, foul hooking all kinds of body parts on the xrap.







After about an hour into high tide, the action cooled and I took off. 7 fish landed total, unfortunately nothing interesting showed up, other than the annoying paddleboard guy.

Latimeria:
Limulus, that's awesome knowing the bones are back there now.  I need to get some fresh shark baits for the upcoming season.

Besides all the bones, that looks like a hell of a decent spotty!  Maybe not as big as the ones that you and I used to catch back in the day, but a nice one anyway!

Limulus:
First post and already misidentifying fish! I've never caught such small bonito before. They were good little fights on the light gear.

Was out there again tonight, but no luck. Kelp was everywhere, which was annoying.

LOL, no worries.  I was going to text you that they were mini bones.  These last 5+ years bonito have been hard to come by so any bones are a welcome site!

Donfish:
Mini bones make the best bait! Over 2 lbs they start getting too thick to chunk
