A beautiful day with a slight swell, probably around 3 foot. Water temperature around 58 degrees, give or take, depending on where you were. More 'yakers out than you would expect for a weekday in February - Ray, Fireman Tim, Baytubers' Patrick and Kenny, Andy and a few whose names I don't know. Several good fish (way to go Patrick!), a few leopards, and sandbass/calicos all around.

Usually Baby Beach, but Steve offered to pay the $10 and launch from the boat launch, it shortens the trip up a bit, but the locked bathrooms were a little inconvenience!

that's a nice fish.

I'm getting my stuff together, I'm betting her big and uglier sister is still out there.

That 'shortened' trip saves me an hour paddle (out & back)

It's worth my $10!!

21lbs Beauty

That was a nice fish!!!!! It was pleasure meeting up with you. I need to learn from an expert a point or two, how to attract a bigger fish.
