San Diego Bay 8/6

[Beachem]

Robert,

Nice to see you out there. Kind of strange seeing you in a boat but it must have been nice not to paddle all day.

Nice catching on the butts. Jackie & I were fishing the shoal close to where we saw you guys. Did pretty well on the SBB's. As we were leaving a boat pulls up and slides in to where we had been fishing for a couple of hours. One of the guys gets a live bait and tosses over the side. No sooner than it hits the bottom he goes bendo. After a shorts battle he brings up a legal or very close to legal halibut. Jackie turns to me and says I can't believe what she just saw. One cast and one halibut. I let here know he was using live bait, next thing she says is how much does a bait tank cost? Now that she's a member of the I caught a bonefish in the bay club she really wants to get a legal halibut.

All in all it was another nice day on the bay. You up for some paddling next weekend?
