Surf soak
« on: April 17, 2015, 10:51:53 PM »
After yesterdays big shark I just had to get out there again today, and what better timing then to have Jaws (joe)hit me up that him and Jwells(jimmy) where gonna soak the long rods as well...perfect!
Only not much was going on.
I arrived late, I wanna say about 8:30, while they got here a bit before sunset and Joe had landed a decent bat.
A repeat of yesterday? Nope, nothing really went on, Joe got 1 hit while I was there, and packed up around 9:45. And go figure at 10:15 or so I get a nice run, and right away I know for sure it's a bat...a nice 51" at that...took a bit longer without a sandhand...But got her going back out quick...still nice getting out and soaking the big stuff regardless. Hopefully next time a grinner rolls thru

Nice Ray! Sorry we bailed but warm home and warm food were calling! Look forward to the next time!
It's all Tom and Don's fault! They "hooked" me on mud marlins and sharks!

It's all good Joe, hopefully next time be more fruitful...after you left and I hooked up, I immediately regretted not taking that tail rope tho lol

Dave, I've noticed the surf can get nasty down here...so I've gotta take advantage of good surf while I can lol

Seriously thought about heading out after happy hour. It wouldn't have been a good idea.

And from recent woes I'd say you probably made the right call as well!

That spot can be pretty rough! A 50"+ surf bat is a win in my book!
