Old school morning trip today. I took Dave and Roger out on the big bay looking for corvina. Roger and Dave are a late start crowd, but we haggled the time down to at least 7am. :lol:
Here they come...

I knew we made a good choice to stay off the ocean as all the SD 1/2 day boats were fishing the bay with me.
Good Flatty action today with the biggest being 20".

We picked up a half a dozen silver on the hard baits in no time.

Also, the bay is paved with 10"-15" Lizards!

I totally lost count on these guys... but we had some decent action back there today with a half dozen vina, half dozen flatties, a dozen + assorted bass with one legal in the mix... and a bunch of trash fish. Oh, there was also a decent mackerel bite going on too.

Another fabulous day in America's Finest City...

Thanks for reading.
Looks like good conditions out in the bay. I want to know how you squeeze three people on that boat.
The other two guys are little people. ;D
I guess I do count double.
