Hello everyone,
It's been nearly a year since I've last posted on here. However, I have been lurking the boards as usual - just haven't got around to much pier fishing lately.
I've been working full time, on top of school as a full time student, and got married in May. So this year has been quite full to say the least.
Been doing a lot of offshore charter fishing during the rockfish, yellowtail, and tuna bite down in Orange County.
I highly recommend Long Beach Sportfishing - they are great folks and do not have the tourist/commercial atmosphere at the dock or on any of their boats.
Got to hit up Malibu Pier on Saturday evening, fishing from about 4 pm to 730 pm.
Fishing yielded lots of bait fish, perch, and I did get to mess with a Horn Shark. Picture attached.
With things slowing down - I am hoping to get some more pier time down in the OC and up in LA.
Note: there was some non - fishing drama at the Malibu Pier when a driver somehow lurched his vehicle from his handicap parking space, down the rock face, and onto the beach. Luckily no one was seriously injured and there were plenty of authorities/EMS on site within minutes. I am not sure the entire story, but I am glad that nobody was injured or killed in what was a very dangerous looking accident.
Anyways, cheers and hopefully I'll be getting out on the pier more often.
Regards,
Ian
