Trip Summary
Trip Summary
Well folks it’s August. Hot weather is back.The weather looked ok for Saturday but was iffy for Sunday. Saturday we saw some repeat clients. That is always great to have.It was their yearly family vacation fishing trip. As usual we started catching bait first. A lot of small spot and some croaker mixed in which we throw back. The spot is what we want to use for live lining for Rockfish. After gathering enough we ran to structure where we were catching when the seasoned closed. Rockfish season was closed for 2 weeks and just opened back up. Another boat was already there and nacho red but that’s ok plenty of room everyone. We set anchor and started dropping baits back to the structure. It wasn’t long before we had our first bite. It was a nice big catfish. They were hungry and chewing for sure. They gave everyone a pretty good fight. After a while we had another bite that was a little different from the others. This one was a runner. Yes sir Kelsey pulled in a 23 3/4 inch Rockfish. They finished the day with 12 catfish and 1 Rockfish.Everyone had a blast just look at that little one sleeping on the ride in. Plum wore out form reeling couldn’t even finish his candy bar.
