Me and my dad fished from about 8 till 11 from the yaks. We mean to get out earlier but, well, we slept in. We got there and the fishing was on right away. We had a steady pick of fish the whole time. Nothing huge but some solid sandies and calicos. The rockfish where everywhere also. It was WFO on johny bass. Final counts where ME: 4 calico 3 sandbass 6ish sugar bass 1 blue rockfish and a load of johny bass DAD: 6 calico 2 sandbass 3 sugar bass 1 blue rockfish and a mess of johny bass. Not a bad day at all. The hot baits where the 4inch purple brown bait, 5inch lary heron special, and the 3 inch bay smelt. The highlight of the trip was when a bait ball erupted around me and one landed in my lap. It was a perfect sardene and i didnt have a bait hook DAMN! I tossed it back and watched a decient calico munch him DAMN!! DAMN!! Pretty good out there i might try again wednesday morning.

Sounds like a blast Daniel - I need to get me a yak.

Nice report Dan. How far out from the end of the pier (how deep) was the action?

Thanks.

Bob

the fish are usually along the whole length starting a hundred yards or so from the end of the pier and going all the way to the end of the kelp (a mile and a half or so). Usually i start working my way out until i hit a good area, usually no more than 30 or 40 ft.
Im going to go tomarow morning because i have afternoon classes. Ill be there at 730 if anyone wants to join me
