Coronado Cays after the storm, yuck

[Spektrum]

Went out to the Cays Monday after the weekend storm to find the waters full of trash. What also looked like a slick of sewage in the channel was not something anyone wants to see either. Once the outgoing tide kicked in, the water slowly cleaned up.

Totals for the morning was only 8 little bass, a micro halibut and 3 plastic bags. All caught on zman TRD neds pinned on 3/16oz crappie under spins. Pick up a box of these off amazon if you haven’t yet. Haven’t found a small plastic that hasn’t worked great with them.

A pattern I’ve started to notice is that the bite is slower with smaller fish during these large outgoing tide swings in the back bay compared to incoming tides. Thinking the fish move north a bit where more food is flowing around.

Thanks for the update! Those heads are my go to for sure. They are inexpensive easy to use and most importantly they work great! I'll be posting my Sunday trip to the bay shortly. Cheers!

The same company also makes a swing head style jig that is VERY inexpensive compared to others. 20 of these jigs for the same price as a single warbaits neckbreaker. Floating tpe plastics such as Zman rigged on these style jigs work great with a very very slow presentation on the bay bass.

Another inexpensive swinging jig head option is to use a Cheburashka sinker and the hook of your choice. Nice thing about this is that you can use a finer wire hook which gives more hookups and a better float to a Zman Ned bait than a thick wire hook found on most swinging jig heads.

I probably have enough other jig heads to last several lifetimes already though. The pitfalls of buying on sale.
