Had a nice surprise today. Casted swimbaits at Oceanside Harbor. My brother lost a legal White Seabass when his Palomar Knot gave way on a 3" bleeding olive herring hammer that was laced with Calico Cocktail. I farmed a legal flattie on a 3" motoroil grub but caught an 18" White Seabass on a black and purple artifishable swimbait released of coarse.

Water temp was 58 (chilly) overcast skies and fished an outgoing tide.

I'm stoked that the Seabass are here and with the Yellowfin Croaker arriving soon along with the Flatties and Spotted Bays and Calicos, it should be a fun summer!

Tight lines and Tan your hide in Oceanside!
