It’s been so long (so I feel) since I last wetted my line. My work has taken over my time in past weeks but finally I found a free day. I joined Mahigeer to visit the mole for some fishing. He stayed over for lobster but I planed to leave making it as a day trip. After a beautiful ferry ride, a half dozen regulars from Redondo piers and us fished for bonito in AM.
Bites were good and constant. Small colt sniper like jigs produced a quick limit of school size bonito for me, mixed in with a really nice fat mackerels. Our neighbors were landing a couple of nice sized ones over 24”.
Some of the bonita spitted out good size anchovies and a nice fresh market squid. I used them to bait fish for some fun too.
I decided to make my day short changing my return ferry from 7:45pm to 1pm so I could fix my flat tire and have enough time to clean my gears within daylight. Other regulars were poaching bonitos. I did not want to keep seeing them doing it too. Before I took off, I could check out Mahigeers yet another new cool gears.
I hope he send us report of how it was.
Lastly I played with my new Casio fishing watch (that both Mahigeer and I brought to this trip without us knowing it). It was a new moon and the watch said great fishing!
Well it worked! FN
