Dana Point - 08-02-2023
Well, took a friend's son and son-in-law out on the 17. Kind of inexperienced so stayed close to the harbor. Bait guys had a choice of anchovies or sardines, I elected for the anchovies. I wanted the kids to at least catch something and sardines take a lot of finesse to get a hook up. Took them around various locations, some outside, some inside. They did pretty well after a few misses, got some short barracuda, four decent corbina, several small WSB (they were on the rampage, must have just released them), a few bass of various species, a halibut (close but no cigar) and an angel shark. Wind picked way up in the afternoon so I called it. Pretty good day for a couple of beginners.
