Well, if nothing else, I have the prettiest office around. Gorgeous morning. Perfect weather. Locals summer at it's finest. I met up with Steve and Pete to fish the surf. We pretty much just soaked lines all morning.
The sea gulls gave us fits early on, flying low and crashing into the lines. Fortunately, none became entangled. But they made the rods bounce and got us excited.
We did eventually catch a small doggie, which volunteered to try to larger quarry. I must've pi**ed off the Fish Gods, because we never got another touch. Nada. I offered to try another beach, but the boys said they were fine where we were. So, we stuck it out.
We did have quite the show for a spell. About 100 sea gulls and other birds were bombarding the waters surface about 400 yards out. You could see fish boiling beneath them. It was fun to watch. Made me wish we were in the boat. Even the ospreys were cruising at high altitude with little to no luck. It was just that sort of day. One damn doggie...
Tight Lines!
