Puffer proved to be a heavier weight on the line reeled it in and it was bloated to about a small basketball. Grunt, had a savage run with this monster (not) re-baited and caught his cousin which was a grunt fight all the way. The ribbon fish was then a hearty sea monster, eating my ballyhoo and running. Landed him with a soft thud and sent him back to the sea. A great pay-off for a day when no-one was landing anything. Fished from 2-11PM. Had some crabs in the trough with no takers for 9-hours. Fished every bait available- live shrimp-dead shrimp-live sand perch, squid, ballyhoo, gogs live and dead,sand fleas. When everyone left I got their bait
Nice day good sun, sea was flat current non-existant to a faint south push. Looking forward to a change soon. You got to laugh about some of the blank days we end up with
