386, S.B. Harbor - June 18, 2000
Posted by , Wed Jun-21-00 04:19 AM
After last Tuesday evening I just had to get back down to the harbor and try for some more white seabass. Mike Edwards and I got down there around 4:30 and I fished until about 7:30 (we were leaving for Lake San Antonio). Seabass are very strange how the bite can be wide open one minute and then totally dead the next. In a period of about an hour it was awesome. Before and after it totally sucked. I got 12 Seabass, 8 were in the 25 - 27 inch range, 3 in the 20 - 24 inch range, and one little one (like 15 inches). About half of them were on the Fastrac and half were on big plastics (I tried lots of different colors and they all seemed to work). I also got a couple Sand Bass including one on a 7 inch Channel Islands Chovie Fishtrap (The fish was only about 12 inches but he inhaled that huge plastic). I'm not sure how many Mike got and Woody (bait guy) got one that was about 25 or 26 inches.

You can't catch tomorrow what you kill today - please practice catch and release.
