Northbay Action “Live” 06/08

[Red Fish]

Just in, Cali-Hali on a double-Snookie rig (basically a hi/lo) with two topsmelt tail-hooked because they were about 4 inches, one ounce pyramid, and two Hayabusa #2 light circles. 24.5" and I splashed a 21".
Pretty much the 1st cast commencing fishing at 4:15. 1 person here and they left. Still at it.
Fish is dedicated to Eloy Padilla-Salazar, fisherman, that I just found out died today of cancer, R.I.P.
I tip my Bud Light to you, as this was his favorite!

Dang I'm going to miss Eloy! His photo is actually on this site, in the Ferry Point Pier article. He was a passionate fisherman. God bless his soul.

Rest in peace, Eloy. Condolences to his family. He was always cordial to me the few times I've been to Richmond and I will never forget that.

Congratulations Robert and sorry to hear about Elroy. Hope he's catching some big ones in Heaven,

Ken, 1 of the fishermen asked me to print out the picture that you featured of Eloy so we can hang it up. Eloy had been suffering from cancer for months and finally succumbed to it.

Lightning ⚡️ struck twice today about 4 pm too with a 26.5…. Eloy must be sending me mojo from beyond… No other keepers for anyone else. Cali-Hali rig and smelt.

Nice catches, Red!
