Santa Cruz Rockfish

Finally got my chance to kiss the ring.

Took the wife and kids to Santa Cruz Wharf to fish the skiffs today. 25 fish, pretty much all were taco-sized. Gut, gilled, and scaled a few for the in-laws.

All fish were taken on shrimp flies tipped with squid. No hits on the swim baits or octopus jigs. Actually lost a lot of gear today.

Tight lines!!
