Had some time free so with the forecast of small surf, headed down for some tubing. Didn't waste anytime in the boilers but fished deeper hard bottom around some lobster pots in an estimated 40-55 feet of water (no Fishin' Buddy). Almost all bites were on the sink or a redrop. The 4 inch big hammers got bit better than the 5 inch today. tennesee shad just outfished the calico hunter w/ red flake. procure calico cocktail helped lessen the short bites. Ended up with 5 bass (about even mix of both species with the larger ones being sandies to about 1.5 pounds), 2 nice sculpin and 2 macks. Fished 930-1230 and it was gorgeous down there--sunny but crisp air and clean green water.Had a gray whale come by for a visit just inside of me ( I was about 1/4 mile out). all fish released.
