12/26 & 12/28

Fished Wednesday off Mission Beach for one short halibut and a couple sandbass. The bait barge had a choice between chovies and mixed deans.

Friday I went back to SD Bay hoping they would have better bait then they did last week. Not such luck, just straight chovies and they were on the small size. I had a feeling they wouldn't be out making bait this week so I brought along the light tackle and some light wire circle hooks.

Ended the day with 20-30 bass, 3 short halibut and one at 23". Two times during the day I caught mackerel or lizard fish on the chovies and had a big halibut grab on for a ride. Big bait would have killed in the bay today.

Thanks for the report Mike, can't decide whether to practice for the Bay Bass Tourney or try the 9 again, either Sunday or Monday

Jeff is your boat in the water or do you need a ride? I'm off until Wednesday if you're without a ride.
