Day after X-Mas Perching

Hi,

Arrived at Manresa State Beach with Craig approxamitly at 08:30hrs. Randy and Pat arrived about 09:00hrs. with some home made Cinnamon rolls.(Very tasty Pat thanks again). We ate and set up the perching rods. Still waiting on Joel (Mooch) and Joel (Bigred). Turns out they parked in the North parking and we parked at the South Lot, near the camp site gate. Sad to say that between the six of us and covering all the water in-between the north and  South parking lot,... we got nothing!

The beach was littered with mounds of dead kelp and the holes where fragged with debris. Very nice day. No wind or rain. The water surge was almost perfect. Just no fish or any sign of the sandcrab colony.


Still had a great time working the surf for the Bard-SF. I'll try again, this time at Pajaro State Beach near the  Salinas River this weekend.

Happy New Year to All

It was a super day to be on the beach and I learned a thing or two.  Thank you for setting this up Alex.

thanks for the report. on my next skunk, I'll take comfort in this report.

sometimes the fish are on vacation, apparently.

I looked at the buoys, it looked fairly gimongous so props for trying.
