6601, first surf perch
Posted by , Tue Jun-25-02 11:02 AM
Went to a private beach, 3 arch cove, in laguna with my friend matt. We fished a small channel for the little orange fish with blue stripes, calicos werent biting. They had tiny mouths and small teeth, no idea what they are called. I also caught a grunion, yes a grunion, on a small fly. got bored of the rocks so decided to try the surf. Finally after so many unsuccessful attempts to locate fish i found a school, and caught a healthy 9" perch. It wasnt huge , but i was just glad to finally catch a fish from the surf. Any tips on catching corbinas, i tried to be stealthy, but every cast i made would spook em and they wouldnt go near the shrimp.
