Well, after blowing off going fishing at La Jolla on Wednesday due to the wind, we woke at 3:00AM to try again. Nope, the wind reading at the Glider port was a little worse at 12-15 mph. Back to bed we went.
When we woke a few hours later it was reading much nicer around 4-6 mph and the surf and weather looked nice on the Yakcam.
So, we headed to the beach for a noon launch. All the bait you wanted at the pier. Stayed north and tried for flat ones, with a little bit of yo-yo'ing here and there. All to no avail (except stocking up on a little more bug-bait).
It stayed beautiful, some of the better afternoon weather we've encountered, with only a mild wind. Landed just before dark.

Still, great to spend some time otw.

Today was strategically important day to get out there, with November end and all... :) I have to admit I had my stuff packed hoping for mid-day run, but ended up working.

We'll knock 'em dead in December. 8)

About 2 PM as I walked down the boardwalk to get my truck I saw 2 white kayaks way out in front of the pier, the question of who is answered :D

I've been very thankful for my large point cushion this week. Wanted to go this morning but couldn't get out my nice warm bed to face the cold. Guess I'm become a true SoCal boy. Good effort to all who tried this week, hopefully December will be kind to us, both weather and fish-wise

Nate, not really. I like to see everyone get in to some fish. While its always fun to catch, the carnage of last winters squid run, with bendos left and right, was truly a site to behold and a great thing to be part of, even on the days I personally came up empty.

Last year was insane. I hope it repeats soon, for everyone. If this chilly weather holds for the weekend I may not even need ice for my beers. :D

Brad,

It sounds like an on-the-water BBQ/heater may be in order manana.

Fresh leopard shark will probably be on the menu :wink:

Yeah, insane with bendos everywhere. I need a re-do from last year so I will be waiting for the "non-post". Then I'll know it's time I will have a shot at my second chance to avoid the lobster pot lines!!! Yo-Yo madness and complete carnage!!

Just like last year this time, they're catching those 25-30# fish off Cat; when they disappear from there and head this way I'll light up @ 0430 and supply some candy like last year. Can't wait!
