I had the entire inlet Bay to myself ... I luved it!
All of the wind predictions; on my phone’s apps, showed me that the winds were going to be at least 12 mph just about everywhere, so I decided to try to see if I could fish in some wind protected areas, just to get out of the house!
The winds at most ended up being approx 2-4 mph in the early morning hours and I ended-up changing my fishing plans from fishing in small protected areas to circumnavigating and fishing the entire inlet Bay.
I received one huge hard hit that just about yanked my rod & reel out of my hands and then it was gone! Too exciting!
31 fish landed, 4 species: Hali, Mac, Spotty & Sandy.
2 legal Spotty’s (best 16 1/2”) with 1 that was 1/8” short.
3 short Halibut.

PS ... I was still on my float tube in the water when the earthquake shook and I never felt it.
