Another quiet gray morning for me. Went north and got the usual nice bait at the pier. Ball bounced and flylined up about 2 miles. One big bat ray that got my heart racing but that was it. Saw ye old sightcaster with a fish in his lap. Old reel I was bouncing on had 50lb power pro spectra, and it separated on me while trying to pull out of a not-to-bad snag. Now I remember why I quit using that stuff (power pro, not spectra). I'm thinking of taking up gardening.

Amusement of the day: marked a bunch of activity on the bottom in 60ft around the canyon finger. Big iron doing nothing, so I dropped the sabiki. Brought up a 2 inch bocaccio (or maybe rockfish, tough to tell). Would have probably made good lizard fish bait.
