AARON, Thanks for the candy this morning.. I know you're up on this board, but I can't find your handle. Good looking out, bud.
Launched with Avery at 0200. Clear skies, full moon, no wind, green 65-68 degree water, and 15' water vis. I wasn't planning on making squirts, because Avery handed off a bag of fresh dead (Thanks). It looked ripe out there, until the marauding mega macs came through. They burned through my bait so I decided to stick a by catch greenie on my dropper. I got picked up by a mystery fish that took me to the kelp and popped off maybe twenty feet down. The fog came in pretty thick for about two hours. Off the water at 0830. I saw a couple of guys fishing inside the reserve as I was paddling in. I think they were fairly new, so I kicked them some knowledge...
. Please know the reserve boundaries. Oh, first time in six years that I actually smelled skunk out there.. It was strong too. Never a good sign.
