2/2/23 Twilight Spotties LAH

Tried the twilight bite mid week.  
Cold, windy but laid down right at sunset.  
Low tide and the eelgrass was everywhere
Pretty good snap on the  spotties right at dusk, one calico thrown in.
I just fixed a leak from dorsal spine a  few weeks ago and had another close call tonight...freakin LA Harbor spots.  The tails and teeth on these guys were crazy


Matched the hatch with 5 inch white and pinfish swim bait thrown in the junk. Needed 3/8th oz due to the wind.


Old reliable green Curado 100b on Loomis 845 MH Crankbait
Orange Diawa Sol on Shimano Crucial Dropshot Rod
Purple Daiwa Alphas 103 on Major Craft Volley BFS

40# max cuatro braid/ 1 foot 25# floro leader
Older Rods have lower modulus graphite, moderate/ slower action - much better hook up ratio for me compared to faster rods they have out these days.

Nice video.

LoL, I started fishing for NB-SBBB with a trout rod, so I was happy to go to a stiffer bass rod.

It took me awhile to figure out why I thought I'd stick the bass, fight it for a bit, then it'd come off.

I’ve always luv’d a good sundowner!
You just never know until you try.

Once again, thank you for the excellent fish report with pictures.
