Started fishing at 7:30am.  Overcast but no rain.  Got spit on a couple of times.  Seas were 5 fts. every 9 secs.  No wind.  Started at the big rock in between the harbor & first green bucket.   Got a lot of small hits.  Moved to the second green can (northside).  Got 2 rocks and a 15" cabbie.  Let the cabbie go to grow up.

I some how broke my pole tip on some seaweed snag.  Broke after the second eye.  I was bummed out.

I decide to keep on fishing.  Next hit was a 20" cabbie (4.2 lbs) and then on the next drop got a 30" (9 lbs) ling.  High was at 10am.  However, the drift & bite stopped at 9:30am.  Stopped fishing at 10am.

Ken:

that' cabbie is so red!  Good length on him.  nice report.

Cabbies are easy to tell. They have feathers on above the eyes and have "NO TEETH" like a ling.  And when you get a ling, it fights harder than a Cabbie.  Unless it is a small ling compared to cabbie.  Also, if you are  into eating eggs.  Do not eat the Cabbie eggs they will make you sick.

nice ling and cab, ken!

ken when does trout trolling start again?

Hi Jmainey,

Maybe in Dec. I could be wrong, but they always plant Stevens Creek before Lex.  If you want some trout, I would go to Del Valle, Shadow Cliffs or Quarry Lakes.
