Bonefish

[Deamon]

I got my first Bonefish in the back bay South of the power plant. It fought a whole lot better than i expected. Twin tail plastic. I was fishing for Spotties...An Osprey came down on me during a Spottie release and I was about to abort the yak...

I launched out of J St. in Chula Vista which is south of SDGE. Water temp was as high as 80 degrees on my finder...I was fishing in water around 10' in depth about a mile and a half off shore. The plastic was a twin tail cheapy bought from Walmart, around 3" in length with a 3/8 oz lead head. Water clarity was poor and there was a fairly strong breeze. Incoming tide. I hope this helps...

The back of the bay is a good place to go for bonefish. Besides artificials they also like goast shrimp which you can pump out of mission bay. Fun catch on light tackle. They are pretty fanatic dart around a lot when you get them close. Good times! thanks for the report.

[baitcasterboy20]

yea that does help a little

Gulp shrimp new penny! Ghost Shrimp is good too if you can tie off somewhere

The bay is pretty shallow so I just anchor and deadstick a Ghost shrimp and then throw plastics. I have about 20 this year. Jack
