Caught one other little guy, though I was getting what felt like some decent bites. Just felt like getting out to the beach on a Thursday evening for some fresh ocean air.

Mission Beach 8/14
The tide was out, the crabs were big and the perch were small. New personal best (worst?) for smallest perch

Re: Mission Beach 8/14
I was out there too. Caught a bunch of tiny guys like that. The only thing I could get to eat. North county yesterday was a bit better. You weren’t the person who asked me about finding sand crabs by chance were you? I talked to someone today.

Re: Mission Beach 8/14
I was there in the evening, 5:30-7:00 or so. Did you have a basset hound? I chatted briefly with someone walking his dog, talked crabs vs camo worms.Phxangler wrote: Thu Aug 14, 2025 9:07 pm I was out there too. Caught a bunch of tiny guys like that.

Re: Mission Beach 8/14
No, sorry. I was there in the AM. Had a hard time finding crabs, switched to gulp sand worms and caught those little guys like you did.jwacky wrote: Thu Aug 14, 2025 9:12 pmI was there in the evening, 5:30-7:00 or so.

Re: Mission Beach 8/14
Have you ever used Zmanns crab imitation I caught over ten decent sized ones a year ago, they last forever, they’ve got more color choices now?

Re: Mission Beach 8/14
I have not. I haven’t been surf fishing all that long but I’ve really only used sand crabs, gulp worms, and squid.vito1023 wrote: Fri Aug 15, 2025 7:00 am Have you ever used Zmanns crab imitation I caught over ten decent sized ones a year ago, they last forever, they’ve got more color choices now?
