Slow Day
« on: September 01, 2023, 08:56:00 PM »
 Launched at South Shores at 6am, beautiful morning 8)




Headed to a few waypoints and first stop my dad starts puking :o :o Asked him if he wants to go back and he says no ::) So next drop my buddy gets slammed :o 8)



Meanwhile, I'm catching dink reds and stary's, nothing pic worthy. Dad is still sick and refuses to go in so we press on. He finally starts feeling human and begins to fish and land a few 8)



I lost about 5 lead weights and still no takers for me until about 3pm >:(


We went in shallow and saw these marks but nothing happened



Called it a day at 3:10 pm and left La Jolla and got back to Mission Bay at 3:30 pm. I figured traffic was going to SUCK, but it was smooth sailing all the way home. Probably my last trip for rock fish before the season ends, heading to Bishop / Mammoth in 2 weeks for a few days ;)

The Cyclops will need a bath but not much blood to clean up this trip :(


Have a safe Labor Day Weekend, I will be nowhere near the Launch Ramps  ;D

That's a mondo red! I empathize with your family's tendency toward sea sickness.

Great report Tim!  You know there were breezing Bluefin 3-5 miles outside La Jolla yesterday? 

Super nice Red for the boat!  I bet that was a thrill to see coming up on deck!
