Beautiful conditions alround contrary to the bump in weekend surf forecast but, Tom's right, now I understand, my first moray eel was enough, no more please...Haven't heard of any taken in LA County before but this one managed to foul tail hook itself on my circle hook somehow and before I got him on the sand he managed to spin and interweave my rig and shockleader in with eelgass salad and himself to make a slimey birdsnest from hell that bites. Even though my 10/0 only barely caught about a inch of him I could not pull my hook out of it's skin. Now I get why it's used to make boots with. Its tougher than tanned cow hide. Combined with a couple dead lobster washed up on the sand,at least I know I was near some reefy type Sevengill structure I look for edges of.
Not much else going on with the 8 rods we had out between me, Sean and Edgar until well past midnight. Those guys are are fun to fish with regardless, plus they pack plenty of oreo cookies along with them
