Lovers Point Monterey 6/9

Went out early this morning and decide to go out of the kelp beds to do some top water action since there wasn't any wind. I landed a 42" striper weighing in at 32lbs can you say a great morning?

Wow...

 Nice,  Lovers Point?

 was that a shore thing?

Thats sweet! Did you make any bait on the FF out there? Sardines on the fly-line.

Ah, my current "devil fish".

Very nice fish!

Nice gills on that fish.  Great catch.  Thanks for sharing.  It got me excited to go fishing again.  Have not gone out at all this year yet but I think I might head down there this Sunday.  Hope they are still around.

''Great Morning"..lol. Thats a beautiful fish. Bet it put up a dandy fight.

I saw a bunch of sardines near the wharf and where the coast guard point was when I paddled around the kelps, believe me I had thoughts of pulling out the Sabiki for bait but didn't because I didn't bring the Hobie Live Well with me this morning. I heard reports of Stripers up and down the coast so instead of the normal rockfish I went outside of the kelps and threw hair raiser with a double tail for a good 30 mins with no bites. It was really calm so I threw the popper and 4-6 casts that's when I hooked up on this baby.

Nice catch!  Thank you for the report and picture MD.

Nice striper brother! Aint nuttin like a HAWG bass hittin on topwater! Bet that was fun!
