10/1 Otay

Post by Dfishin »

Got there at sunrise and not many boats. Got some info to go back to any of the big coves. Went into harvey arm about 3/4 of the way back, I found them. They were not busting, they would not hit anything and not really follow the baits. Funny thing boats started coming in and at 8:30 bam. Busting began in bunches, what a blast. You just needed to be around the boils fish on. After about 45 min. they settled down a little. I was using BFS and had to fight the fish. Others would ski them in. I tried fishing the bottom, I knew I was dragging it threw them, only 1 bite and was the biggest I hooked for the day. Lost on the jump. I ended up with 26, nothing landed over 2 1/2. You are going to see in one pic what I was using ignore that. There was this osprey that dove, picked up a bass that he had a battle to get back up fling. I tried to get a pic.

I've had Osprey fly off with my fish there as well. Took it right up to a tree and I had to fight to get my Sammy back from him. It was pretty comical to onlookers me fighting a fish and a bird in a tree.

Awesome job Dave
