Leo Carrillo 9/23
 

This weekend looks good for a Leo launch. My son has basketball on Saturday so I plan on heading out on Sunday morning. I have not launched from Leo in a long time. If the waves stay low I am a go.

What time are you planning to launch

I might be down for sun

North or South ?

I'll probably launch around 7. I launch below the life guard tower. I like to land there as that big rock blocks the waves but there are usually a bunch of kids there when I come back so I land by that large staircase and walk back along the beach. Wheeleez save my ass there.

If I don't head all the way down to Redondo, I'll meet you guys at Leo. I usually launch at the stairs.

Good to meet you guys at Leo on Sunday!

I stayed out until about 2pm, caught a decent but not huge number of calico and sand bass.

Saw a couple instances of larger fish crashing on bait w/in the kelp.

Saw the splashes of something large enough to initially make me think it was a seal or sea lion just 10 feet or so from me. I never saw anything surface so maybe a large WSB? Who knows.

The wind picked up mid morning and the water got uncomfortably choppy so I decided to head back in. But before I landed the wind stopped and the sun came out, so I stayed another couple hours.

I really love it out there, gotta find more time!

Maybe a thresher shark?

Always nice seeing another big waters edge member out on the water.
I didn’t stay out much past 9:30 due to wind picking up. Saturday got really windy and I was expecting the same on Sunday.
My fish count was only two kelp bass and a bunch of short bites.
I did have a halibut follow my lure close to shore.

I had a good time but I had been eating Tums all night before fishing so I did not feel the best. Had a good launch but was one wave off in my timing and took a wave in the crotch, keep those knees closed in the waves lol. Got a couple of calicos but nothing to brag about. Good times all.
