A funny thing happened...

Not a yakfishing report, but thought I'd share nonetheless. Decided to to do some surf fishing at Mission Beach early this morning, as I'd heard the salad had pretty much cleared up and the surf wasn't so big. Thought I'd stop at my bait spot to pump a few ghost shrimp in case the surf critters were tired of gorging themselves on the gazillion sandcrabs out this summer. Another guy was doing the same nearby, when he holds something up and says, "This is paying off."
I stroll over and he's holding a five dollar bill. "Did you pump that out of a shrimp hole?" I asked, and he said yes, indeed he had.
"That's great," I quipped, "think I'll look for the bigger shrimp, see if I can find one holding a twenty." Not two minutes later I find a twenty dollar bill in the mud and I'm busting up, seein' as how I was just joking. Then we both start looking around, and I find a ten spot in the water! After a few more chuckles, I told him I was ready to head over to the beach and start fishing, and I'd leave the hundred dollar bill out there for him to find. By the way, the perching was steady on the crabbies, including a few plus-sized models. Handed off my rod to an angler from NorCal, wouldn't you know he pulls in a nice little yellowfin croaker, the only non-perch I saw caught this morning. Fun stuff...

Cartel CASH.....:eek:

One of those semi-submersible "medical supply transports" from Mexico must have had an exciting evening... :eek:

Meanwhile... somewhere South of the border... some dark guy with a Hispanic accent is very angry, bitch slapping his minions, and asking WHERE IS MY MONEY!!??

Cartel sensationalism

Nah...pretty sure a clueless tourist waded into the bay without securing his wad...The local in me would like to think it came from Arizona and he left a daughter behind too!

Very nice!!! I need to go out there and find some of that cash!

Claiming cash, that's great. Great report.

I can identify the bills in question. Please return ASAP. Ask my wife , everytime I go to the Ocean I drop at least forty bucks!:D

Can I ask where your baitspot was at?

X2, #'s on the ghost-shrimp spot please....

Thanks for the report, I only lose $10's, $20's, $100's when I fish! :argh:

Sweet gotta love that. Good for you & thanks for the report.

If it washed up on the shore and it wasnt a small brick with a scorpion stamp on it I dont wanna know about it...:)

Find yer own d**n bait!

Kidding...Bahia, also across the street (Mariner's Cove). Make sure you've got your license and don't possess more than 50. I've had DFG card me a few times, even count my shrimp.
