Hopefully we'll be having beers soon and you'll be dancing a Greek jig with your new back...!

Wow, looks like a fun place to fish. Best of luck Yanni. See you soon.

So, here's a video of what transpired that day
I know they are not very big, but that was a blast on light tackle
The Hook-up baits are great working lures and got the bite started, but I was using a Lunker City Fin-s Rainbow Trout color fluke and a 1/2oz. head

Thanks Jim! That was a blast!

what a treat on the firecracker yellows! Does anyone know if the bubble was going that day? Or completely just coincidental on them being there?

That's a PIG sand bass. Awesome day out there!

Yet, when tournament time comes, I spent about an hour in that exact area throwing everything I could think of - then moved off to deeper water around the canyon - then moved south towards PV and fished the outer surfline back to the harbor trying for halibut. Spent the rest of the day in the harbor sticking to my halibut plan with nothing to show.
Just another one of those days - but I did enjoy being out there. From what I understand most of the fish were caught in the first half hour/45 minutes, then it all shut down - so if you didn't haul out to the offshore structure fast you were shut out. The winning fish were probably caught before I even cleared the breakwater, as I was slow drifting for halibut on the way out.
Enjoyable tournament though, and I'm looking forward to next years. With Dana Point in the mix for next year, I'll probably do that one as well as Mission Bay, as its half the drive for me. The 405 coming south Saturday was gridlock like a Friday afternoon commute - couldn't believe the traffic...
