Water calm, slight breeze from the north, current running south. Water temp about 68 +/-. Drifted a live sardine on the bottom around the kelp and picked up this guy. I really like the room the PA has for unexpected visitors... 40 inches, 28.5 lbs.

Nice catch! 68 degree water in November! Might want to calibrate that thing. I found that if it reads 98.6 degrees i need to take it off my seat;)

Was 68 yesterday, according to the temp reading on the FF. Caught two Black Seabass in the 30-40 range. Like fighting a volkswagon. Caught to small butts and a sandie as well.
