Cabrillo (SoCal) 2/17/12 Afternoon

Hi from down south.  Dave's still here.  I went out this afternoon @ Cabrillo on the inside in the wind. (very windy) Was OTW @ 1:30 and fished until dark.  The wind laid down for a time between 4:00 and dark and it was really nice for a while, but it picked up again at sundown.   I seem to be good at catching (and releasing) short halibut and lizard fish   Today's score, two shorties (halibut) and one lizard fish.  I got out for a "break" mid afternoon and was greeting by two game wardens at the ramp.  We had a pleasant chat and they checked me for "legality" which I totally was.   

I haven't posted in a while and I know you've all seen short fish, so here's the 2nd one I caught today.  (What's a fishing report without pictures?) 

A short one is better than none  , keep at it Dave, you will get one soon enough.

You'll get a legal one sooner or later, Dave!  Nice tryin.
