Work has been a little slow lately, so I took the day off and went to lopez. The forecast was calling for warm temps and very little wind so my plan was to do some finessing today. I also got a new Castaway flippin' stick, but I just wanted to test it out and not really throw jigs much. It's a new design and it worked out great, so i'm stoked.
When I got there I went straight to an area where this flat drops off into the channel that's about 18ft deep and started dragging a split-shot Robo worm uphill. I was fishing extremely slow and each cast was taking 3-5 minutes. On my third cast I got a bite which was nice to feel for change, but I missed it. I worked this area for another hour or two and then went to another similar spot an did some drop-shotting. Eventually, I got one about 1-1/2lbs which is the first fish i've caught in 4 or 5 trips and I was excited as heck to catch the little guy. Pretty sad huh. I got one more bite out of that spot and that was pretty much it for the day.
