Grunion run tonight 3/29/25
I’m gonna head out to OB tonight and try to catch the predicted grunion run. I’ve tried a handful of times when I lived in Santa Ynez but never had any luck, and I’ve never tried in SD. Since my 4 month skunk got washed last weekend, maybe tonight is the night

**UPDATE**
The grunion were there! Not huge #'s, but plenty to have some fun and see an amazing display of nature! Pretty big wave power, the big washups seemed to have the most fish coming in. Put about a dozen in a bucket just to observe, used a few for live bait later, but they kept getting stolen by something. A handful of families with their kids out to witness the spectacle. I didn't get any pics because I don't have lights and what not, and it was basically impossible to catch them in a photograph in the dark, but my son and I did get to meet Mikey from sdfishandsips, super gracious guy with a passion for life, the sport, and his fans. Great Youtube channel, and if it wasn't for one of his videos I wouldn't have known this was happening! They'll still be running, but it's observation only now so still, get out there and see it. I did have a can of *ahem* repellent, it is OB after midnight after all lol
