I fished off my buddy's skipjack around strands and laguna. We did really well on calicos to 15 inches. (always released) we did some long drifts only to go back and fish calicos again. Lots of bass to be caught, and with that said, hopefully to be released.

Ed i need to learn how to maintenance my own reels...im scared to take them apart and lose something. im sure it just needs a bit of lube to get back in order.

HI2CA...ya i think you were outside of me by the buoy when i was first paddling out...Sounds like you had a good day. congrats. Ill let you know next time i plan on heading out, probably saturday go down to DPJS for the above mentioned get together.

FRD...were you straight off the headlands around 830 or 9 fishing by a big group of birds workin bait on the surface?? maybe a mile out?

Hopefully see some of you guys saturday

yep that was me, i stopped by the green can to make bait before heading over near the kelp to fish, thinking about going tomorrow again, and i may check out DPJS on saturday. Just a heads up, the guy who caught the just legal hali told me he was visited by DFG out on the water. Don't forget ur licenses or be tempted to keep any shorties out at DP

ya i actually saw DFG heading back in while i was out by the headlands...first was 2 in the inflatable then they were followed by the big aluminum thats usually docked over by the Sheriff's boats and the CG boat. Good luck if you go out tomorrow, might see you out there saturday.

nice thanks...i remembered seeing threads about it but couldnt remember the name. Im gonna give shimano a shot and see if theyll just replace it for a new one like they used to with this line of reels....i think i may have read on BD that they stopped doing it though.

Best way to learn is get your hands dirty, if something goes horribly wrong I'm sure one of us can help you get it right.
