Brian Kettler, Pete, temporarily Mike and I fished the harbor this evening. Mike took off around sunset. Pete pulled a short halibut before sundown and Brian actually got a spotted bay bass at the second receiver on plastic. As it got darker, we started catching seabass. The bite was pretty good. It lasted for over an hour, heating up at times and then slowing down. Brian got the first fish, a nice 30 incher. Pete got the second, a 29. From there it was a nice pick. Brian ended up with that one legal and 2 or 3 shorts. Pete had the legal and one more legal that flipped right out of his hands before he could stick it on the stringer, and he also had a couple shorts. I had one short and a 35 incher. It weighed in at about 10 (and Rob, "I de-lied it!!!"). It was a pretty eventful evening. The bite was really late, starting at around 8:30 and lasting until around 10. All of our seabass came on plastics. Pete had his 8 inch rainbow trout swimbait, Brian had a 5 inch rainbow trout, and I had a 5.5 inch green sardine. No fastrac fish this time. I didn't throw it that much though, don't get your hopes up Rob... The two seals that were there pretty much stayed off the bait barge. They just floated around in the channel and didn't bother anybody. All in all, a very good night.
