For the few of us that are out in lj year round, its a BUMMER to have a bite blown out and see all the computer lurkers clog the grounds.

Make friends out there pm people.

times have changed. theres higher gas prices. more boaters/kayakers. Not to mention lj's fishing grounds could be getting a lot smaller in October!!!

Well, let's just keep it that way, and not use the internet at all.
If you're just a lurker, you are a turd.
But, that doesn't explain non-disclosure for the rest of us, who think sharing is in our best interest.

Hey, anybody know where I can set up my tent near the launch? I heard that 1 guy got 1 YT, so I took 2 weeks off to pound it hard. Lets see, they were at the NW Corner a couple days ago, that should put them somewhere between the border and Malibu tomorrow.

hahahaha, you guys act like la jolla is the only place there are fish, it's a known hot spot posting a report is not going to bring everyone out because there is always more then 1 person out there catching, and BWE and BD are not the only sites in the world. I've only gone down there once since Jan. and there is still fresh WSB and even some YT in my freezer. Do I report my findings, no. Does that make me an A$$hole, or selfish, I dont care. I used to post reports the day of and even from the water, then I noticed a lot more PB and have almost been run down too many times to count.Is it my fault? maybe I contributed or confirmed to someone else and everyone showed up. None the less I have spent a lot of hours paddling, drowning macs and squids, to find the locations that produce to just post up a photo and a report only to have a bunch of people that have no respect for the safety of others move in. I have however told people that I know will have respect for our addiction, some quality spots and even passed out some gps#. Yes times have changed, yes the ocean is getting smaller, yes it may get smaller in Oct, yes the days of posting timely reports are fading,but so are the guys who keep secrets. With the implementation of the MLPA we all are going to have to change how and where we fish. For those of you "that are out in lj year round," sorry to steal 1 day from you. Thumbs up to all all those who post the timely reports, Avery, Skiffman, you guys give me hope for the weekends.

Wow...I feel like chit now, even though I am still trying to figure out where I lay in this conundrum...

So I am late in reporting this, and I did not have a fish finder, nor do I pedal a yak. Alas, I am guilty of not posting, not for fear of being chastised, and not for fear of if someone told me about the 'bite', which no one did. Figured it out by myself.

So, 2 weeks ago, oh wow...the bite was off the hook.

Late stroll, the lad wanted to get some ocean time in. While he was body surfing the nice kinds, I was catching perch...big boys, enough for a taco dinner. Incidental catches of corbs only stoked our fire, we ended up having not only fish tacos, corb ceviche as well.

So obviously we headed out the next day, but timed it better with the tides, and planned to stay at our "secret" spot later to time the tide.
Changed tactics to load up on our target fish for dinner, and were not disappointed...only got 1 perch, released, we focused on the right *kind* actually I was disappointed since I did not best Clay's biggest corb, mine came it at 20", short by 4" of his PB...so yes I was pissed, he still has bragging rights. But, I did catch 3, smallest being 17"...and, I outfished him, yes it DOES happen, though very infrequent...off to the local market for onions and limes, our garden provided us with the tomatoes, scallions, peppers, and we had the garlic...we always have the garlic...
epic dinner of ceviche with chips and nothing else, and we still could not finish our meal...

I know, I know, BS without pics...rest assured I have them.

Water temp - warm
Current - just right
Location - So Cal
Bait - sand crabs, but I'm not gonna tell you that the big boys didn't produce, the little ones with the iddy biddy egg sacks did, so don't ask, and I'm not gonna tell you what size hook or how many we put on the hook.
Talent - eh, so-so, couple fine specimens
