Malibu 1/9 PM Negative Tide
The rain didnt stop me today.
Over the hill, rocks exposed up and down the coastline, easy shore launch, glassy water. Got over to the launch at 2:30 today got on the water at 2:50PM
Fished the kelp for about 45 minutes, not a single bite. Paddled around for a while and the rain started pouring hard. Lucky i was wearing waders and a rain jacket. Stayed dry.
Switched out jigs and that did the trick.
First fish - 16 1/2 inch Calico Bass. Bit one crank off the bottom.
Paddled more and the rain let up, found some loaded boiler rocks!
Second fish - 11" calico released.
Third fish - 6lb 22" fat calico released
Fourth fish - boiling to the surface 2 feet from he kayak bites and unbottons
Fifth fish - 10" calico released
Starts raining again
Sixth fish - short calico slaps baits at the surface and mised the bait.
About another 3-4 shortbites and another 5 lb calico in the pouring rain which was also released. The ocean was amazing today no wind at all.
