BFIzzle from shore 02/16 (non-yak)

my first NCKA report!  sadly, not much to report 

15-20mph winds with on and off drizzling

no nibbles, bites or fish between 3 rods during the 2 hours

live ghost shrimp and procure scents

DFG paid us a visit as we were setting up.  the warden told us she hasn't heard of any fish being landed there for the past 3 days. sounds like a hookup is long overdue!  should be worth a shot once the weather lets up.

Hey
It is cool to see some one has the cajones to go sit out in the rain and give it an honest try while the rest of us are sitting home and watching it rain and reading about guys like you

lol, right on

in this case, it was 2 guys and their older sister! 

Hey man, I've had some good times drinking hot coffee and sitting in the rain for the inevitable bank sturgeon skunk.  I like that place a lot and found a trick to fishing there.  Cast out and set up the rod perfectly with some fresh ghost shrimp.  Then walk away from your rod and waste time looking for lost sinkers in the rocks.  Then when you're least expecting it, you'll hear your reel's drag start screaming and by the time you get there, the fish is gone.  Well....not much of a trick but I've found a lot of sinkers and lost a lot of bites.  Good luck.

yup!

i've done that plenty of times during low tide.  i probably have about 10 free sinkers under my belt, and at least 25 missed bites bc of it! lol

way to atleast get out there

Well at least you gave it a go. You are a braver man than I. Or at least willing to suffer more 

Great first post!!
