My friend Jim and I decided to take the afternoon half day out of Newport Landing yesterday. We headed down the coast a little bit to fish some spots for the bass. Everywhere we went it was wide open mackeral. Most of the time it was hard to get a plastic thru to try and find a bass. The bass fishing was slow but still fun. Together me and Jim ended up with 8 legals and about 4 shorts. He spent the day flylining chovies andI thru the 4 inch BH in the clear with red flake. Both were equally productive. Nothing big for us but there was one 5 pound sandy and about a 4 pound halibut caught. Here is an average sandy caught.
