Fished the kelpy nation for about 10 hours with Team Upstarts and Rogues. We caught fish from 50-25’ deep. Water temp ranged from 64-67 degrees. Current was minimal running in all directions. Water was clear to stained. Fishing got better as the day grew longer. We caught about 60 fish, mostly rockfish and smallish calicos. Pink/orange/red Jetty Worms were the preferred bait. Although green/red/white caught a few fish as well as a chart/orange 5†swimbait.
As always the digicam was at the ready;
