It looks like I’m going to be spending time this fall and
winter working in sunny San Diego. It’s a
rough job right on the San Diego Bay.
Try not to feel bad for me. I had
to travel out there for a quick 2-day trip and of course I brought my fishing rod
along for the ride.
I spent a couple evenings fishing Shelter Island throwing
grubs off the rocks. I caught quite a
few spotted bay bass and may I say… these fish pack a punch! There not very big, but they make freshwater
fish look like pansies. A half-pound
spotted bay bass will actually pull some serious drag. Gotta love the ocean. Hopefully if I spend some more time here I
can get into a few more species, or better yet, find someone with a boat
willing to take me out on the big pond in search of some real ocean fish.
