#5371, "South OC bassing 4/1"
Mon Apr-01-02 12:20 PM

          

Had the pleasure of joining my friend on his boat today out of Dana. We found glassy, overcast conditions when we started at 615 am. There was no current and the tide had just bottomed out. We fished about 10-12 hardbottom spots from out front down to down the coast a few miles. Fish weren't very aggressive in the 56 degree water but we did manage 30 or so legal bass between us with them being about 50/50 calicos-to-sandies. 4 of the calicos went 3-pounds each. We also caught an 18-inch ling. All but one fish were caught on 5 inch Big Hammers on 3/4 to 1.5 oz Fischco heads. Best colors for the hammers were ones with brown and orange in them. We were being short bit a lot, so I tried a smaller 4-inch size but only got one fish on it. The smaller bait didn't trigger the strikes like the 5-inch, so we just had to put up with being short bit a lot between hook ups. Pro Cure cocktail did help with short bites and followers. Done at 1 pm. All fish released.
