More SD Bay fishing

Post by Nick Arevalo »

Same as always, live smelt & lures at Harbor Island.

Saturday:
6 short halibut
20+ spotties (I lost count)
1 queenfish
1 shovelnose guitarfish
2 butterfly rays
1 thornback ray
1 sculpin

Sunday:
3 short halibut
~10-15 spotties
New pb guitarfish at 50 inches
A few butterfly rays
1 corvina (released)
1 queenfish

The 50" guitarfish put up such an amazing fight. Bit a live smelt on a long cast. It completely shredded my line in the rocks and I'm surprised I didn't lose it. Had to respool my reel right after.

Halibut bit both lures and live smelt.
