Is it still possible to land a YT or WSB in December in LJK? What else might bite a trolled mac from the yak around this time? I don't want to waste bait right now if the big guys are on vacation.

possible but unlikely. :rolleyes: save the bait for when the fishes come back from their vacation. They need some time to themselves right now.....

Under fish reports go back until you hit this date in 2009, 2008.....read the reports. It seems like the catching is much slower, but the guys do get lucky just enough to keep all of our dumbasses coming back.:D

Went out today. Little rough early on. A few hundred yards where I was at there was a swarm of gulls...hundreds. It went on for over 10 minutes. Thought about checking it out but I had to meet the wife at noon. I could only wonder what was schooling out there. All I could think about was throwing my jig in that frenzy. The frenzy would have been gone anyways by the time I got out there w/ paddle power. I caught a few greenies and tied one on salt water set up. I brought my light LM bass gear w/ me w/ 8lb test as my second set up (all I have at the time). Snapped a small jig on it to play w/ some macs. First drop and my line went running. Fish took all the line off my small reel and it broke off. I've caught many LMB at Miramar in the 2-3lb range w/ this pole w/ the same drag set w/ no problem. If I only had it on my sw set-up w/ braid. I need to order another off shore reel so I can troll and fish lures at the same time.
