A Twin's Birthday Trip
« on: May 26, 2023, 09:13:56 PM »
 Well, today is the day Max and Myles were born 17 years ago :o I told them they could skip school and go fishing for their Birthday if they wanted, Myles said hell yeah and Max said hell no ;D, He was afraid he would get sick again, so off to school he went. Got to South Shores at 6am and headed out to a few spots in La Jolla that did us well before :) Overcast and cool at the start of the day but it cleared up nicely 8)


1st spot was loaded with bait and we raked in a few macks for later. I sent down a double Hookup Bait setup and got slammed :o


Made a few drifts and everyone was on fish, it was cool !





 I really wanted Myles to hook a nice Red for his Birthday, then it happened 8) 8)






We all hooked up at the same time and it was chaos cause nobody could snap a pic ;D Blood was everywhere but the hose was a great help.


The kill Bag filled up pretty full and we had quite the variety, even a fat Sculpin and a Sand Bass :)




It was a beautiful day on the water so my buddy Richard took a break and chilled in the sun and relaxed a bit.


We fished till about 3pm cause it was so nice out there, then we headed for the Barn.


Got back to the Launch Ramp and loaded The Cyclops back on the trailer.


It was a quiet ride home, Myles had a BLAST !


Got home and took a few more pics before washing the boat and putting her away.


The whole plan was to beat the madness of the Holiday Weekend, it will be a Chit Show tomorrow thru Monday, so my plan worked 8) Hope everyone has a safe 3 days ;)

First off, Happy Birthday Guys!  That was a hell of a trip with some quality reds!

I may need to get advice from you since I apparently forgot how to Rockfish! (This must be how Kogahead feels with every passing year)

Bravo!  It'll be time to really bloody up that deck here soon!

 Thanks for the comments, it was a good day. At the end of our trip we cruised  in shallow to have a look, saw this on the screen, not sure what I'm seeing, any ideas ?

Yeah, I have a good idea what that is... or at least a few options of what it could be.  In either case, those are feeding fish...   Always have a heavy iron ready to go.
