Today it was perfect weather. Tides swinging good. Little action in AM. Right at noon it started to look fishy. You know - birds coming around... Then they came through quick. Hook ups everywhere. Did it again about 30 mins later. !st time they came through I was fly lining and drop looping - they passed me and others got hooked up. 2nd time I got em on the 'ol rusty iron. Fog came in thick around 3:30 ish and it looked like it was engulfing... I saw it from the beach when I landed. Should be good tomorrow.

Fun adventure fishing the 'Shoe yesterday with Landwhale. We blanked on the YT, saw a few hooked by the boats, but 4 I saw hooked all ended in heartbreak. Heard some happy hooting and hollering from one boat. I had a mackerel out and yoyoed, even brought the long stick in case they came up. Lots of red crab out there. I will be back for mine!

How much distance did you end up doing?

TJones · 02-17-2015, 09:42 AM

lj . blank . looks like it has to bust open in the next couple days.

Iceman · 02-17-2015, 09:45 AM

Not sure exactly but less than 10, probably closer to 8 miles R/T.

Originally I planned to launch from the beach and head more west before turning south as reports have had them up there under birds. We ended up launching from the boat launch, making a pretty straight shot out to the fleet, something like what this shows. I may run out there again next week.

Shoots Native sun rolled up about 100 yards from us and circled, tossed bait and had fish that would not go. They motored SW after that and must have found some biters.

I am planning to launch from the beach on Saturday if you want to meet up and give it another try. Unless the shore break is big, then ill be launching from the boat launch.
