Sunday fishing trip


Hi all

Yep I do use the boat to go fishing. And last Sunday the Ramblin' was out and did some successful fishing. It was a very nice day and I had some nice guys along. Even my son Ryan had a good time.

We started to go south and seeing no one was fishing for Bonita south off of Manhatton and Redondo Beach we turned and headed for my favorite spot out near Short Banks. The Betty O was out there too. After a few sorta seccessful drops Ryan got into it and landed the Big Fish of the Day.

We then headed out to fish for Bonita and near shore fishing in Malibu. We ran across a very large pod of dolphin and trolled some. No luck. Then continued on to Big Rock. Fished from 15 feet to 45 feet. No luck. So we headed to Santa Monica canyon and trolled and soaked bait off and on.

Near Twin towers we got a hit on a broken back rapala type lure (green) by a big Bonita. He must have been alone. We worked that area hard and not another bite came from it.

We stopped at Burton Chase park and used the fish cleaning shed there. Joshua checked up on the health of the MDRAnglers White Seabass pens and did his Pen Pal cleaning thing. We even pumped the head. The new holding tank TankWatch system works just dandy.

It was a good day. Even some good ball the TV at the clubhouse to finish off the day. Dinner that night was good. Joshua used his fryer and had fish sticks for his kids and family. Yummy stuff.

Good day on the water. Fish Wish Granted.

Another great fishing trip with good friends and nice weather. The rockfish were plentiful (and tasty). We trolled for bonita with some success. It was fun being out on the bay in a great boat with a super captain. Many thanks to Captain Keith!

All my best,
