San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Have an old work and fishing buddy here visiting that bolted to North Carolina in ‘99. We picked up our rivalry right where we left off at El Cap this morning from 6-9:30. He got a white spinnerbait fish quickly and I nabbed one on a micro 1/8 Oz jerkbait. BTW that was on the Dannicus Ark BFS reel and threw really nice. I switched to senkos a bit later and caught a couple so my bud decided to throw T-rigged worms. Not having any luck I shared a bag of 6” margarita mutilator robos with him and boom, game on. I had to switch over to that just to keep pace. Fish seemed to be biting past the brush line in about 5-12 feet. Final tally for the morning was 7-6 him. Dangit. I won’t hear the end of this for some time

Nice job out there. The pics tell the story as it is always fun to fish with an old fishing buddy. You guys
probably caught up on lots of fish stories no doubt. That was nice of you letting him catch one more than you
but that was probably only a one time deal. Anyway, I enjoyed your post and so glad to see you posted something
as it was very refreshing to see as there has been a lack of fish reports recently.
Tight lines always

Thanks VB and it does seem like tight lips on the reporting!

Looks like a fun day. It's funny, I haven't ever seen a competitive side of you while fishing.

Awesome, glad you like the reel. I have 3 of them now.
