The kelp beat me down (06-18)
« on: June 19, 2015, 11:36:32 AM »
Hit the surf to soak some macks. Had to wait for the crowds to die. Parking sucked! 2 baits resulted into 2 chewed up baits. The rest of the night was nothing but piles of kelp and eel grass. Always so fun to reel in. Got so bad, I quit fishing and just waited for Binh to catch something. So f'ing frustrating to get out of the house at a decent time just play with kelp.

Binh salvaged his night with his PB batray at 54" and a thornback. He wowed the crowd and I got to play sand hand.

Nice Binh!  It's double or nothing riding on you to get the first Seven-gill now!  I might still give Mike a framed buck, but if you catch one before I give it to him, I'll give it to you!  lol
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

I miss my 7gills, it's weird how depending on the weather 1 species is more predominant than the other
