Fished today from around 9:00am till 6:00pm and it was a pretty good day out there except for the flies.
The summer fish have arrived. I was able to catch spot at will today using a hi-lo rig with fishbite bloodworms. Also a two small croaker mixed in with the spot. No kingfish :(
Now for the good stuff, I was showing Grossy my Avet and both my 12 ft tica rods start dancing at the same time. So we each grabbed on and started hauling in. I ended up with a pretty big butterfly ray but my other rod that grossy grabbed had a medium size shark with teeth on it. I am pretty sure it was a sandbar but for all I know it could have been a great white. So it was cool to at least catching something today! Grossy ended up with two small blues using finger mullet.
I did hook into another HUGE butterfly ray and when my GF grabbed the shock leader to drag him on the beach he twisted all up in it and somehow cut the line in half. He was definatly a LOT larger than the one I beached earlier in the day.
The food of the day was the fresh spot I was catching and using for bait. The rays where hitting the WHOLE spot and the sharky hit the spot that was cut in half. All baits where casted, no yak for me yet. I used Charkbaits shark rig with the two pieces of wire like he described in the other thread and it caught the Ray. The shark hit on the old normal fishfinder setup. No wire whatsoever on that, but we still beached him.
All the bunker I had out didn't get touched (except crabs).
They are here! go get them!
