Ed,

I must have missed you at Hayes St. by a matter of minutes. I took one look at the water and one deep breath and off I went for Ponto. You were fishing the south end while I was working the north evidently.

A first for me today in the surf. I had a Warden drop by and check for a license. I had a good 20 minute conversation with him as I had alot of questions about alot of topics. His name was Officer Gregory and was a pretty cool dude.

Also bumped into a few locals there that told me the Flatties move in pretty close in the late spring and told me to bring my swimbaits and castmasters next time I come down. They said the incoming tide works the best for them.

After reading your post I'm now convinced that I wasn't launching the grubs out far enough. I was ready to blame things on the most recent Grunion run that we had. I had a grand total of 3 Bards in the 6-7" range.

I'll give it a go manana and see what happens.
