What a coincidence, the massive balls of bait off DP are...5"-7" 'dines, with smelt and small jackmacks and bigass green macks. Bigger jackmacks are in the kelp.

And there is a LOT of bait out there. I was outside of CK for most of the morning in the midst of flopping 'dines and smelt. My live bait [greenmack] swam happily all morning, so I switched to a squid. Caught a browbait on squid so I put the brown back down. Nothing on the brown.

Got some sadbass on plastics (greens), 1 woulda been a contender at 23".
Handful of tomcod, and barracuda.

Talking to CK, I realized I maybe shoulda been closer to the kelp.

Rossman had a bigger hook-up out between the spars, but it spit the hook.

Later in the day the inshore water was turned and colder, but at launch it was warm all the way to the outside.

Just a heads-up: There is a significant S swell running right now. All you guys that like to fish Doho, keep your eyes on the horizon and don't get caught by those long-period swells.

CYA Sat,
