So the day started like this...
Woke up from a nap and woke Ray up to go fishing. (Around 6:30pm)🌆
He didn't think the conditions were good enough to go surf fishing, but I convinced him and we took off. On the way over to our spot, he saw it was a full moon 🌕and was windy🌬, he was not very optimistic.
We set up the surf rod and brought the light rods as well. The bite started late. But it started.
I hooked up 🎣on a nice size calico. I posed for a picture📷 and then released him.

Ray hooked up 🎣on something. He was hoping for a hog, but turned out to be a MINUS ONE. ❌ He tried hiding it but I managed to get a picture. 📸

He then hooked up 🎣again and it was a baby Leo. A couple minutes later he hooked up 🎣once again. Another baby Leo. 👶🏼

Ray wanted to pack up, it was only 10:45pm , It was getting colder and the wind picked up but I wasn't ready to leave just yet.
I went to rebait but the box of squid was empty! Oh no :o. But I dug in the bag and found one lonely squid , just waiting to be used!! :D
Then bam, I hook up. 🎣 She put up a little fight, but I managed to bring her in. This one had a little belly.

(At this point Ray was getting agitated, as he is very competitive) 😂
It was now 11:20pm , and FINALLY Ray brings in a bass. It wasn't a hog as he had hoped (or as big as mine🐟) but he got his redemption. 😌

Didn't get any bites on the surf rod, no Sevens. Tough surf but well worth it. 👍🏻
Should we assume Ray realizes how lucky he is?? A girl that wakes him up to and convinces him to go fishing with her...really? ;) S M H

I get the impression everyone assumes I'm very competitive, idk why. Nice report starfish. I was taking it easy on you. 8)
Starfish is cleaning every ones clock on bass lately. Glad it isn't a contest.
A -1 becomes neutral if you use it for bait.
Hoping to make a scouting trip Thursday a bit to the north.

Lol there is no such thing as "taking it easy" when it comes to fishing. It's up to the fish 😉

I actually saved the round ray for bait. I may or may not have specifically targeted it for future 7gill bait....
Nice report starfish, you kicked rays ass ;D
I love catching rounds, for bait. Good job guys, cool to have a girl who loves to fish. I'm luck to have one too, but not as hardcore as Starfish! Way to go guys and gals!
Nice report.
Better step up the game Ray.
Jajajajaja
The bass were willing to play, nice report 8)

Nice report.

Jajajajaja
Yep... She'll be ahead of Ray in the leaderboard in no time! We alread know she has a second 7gill that is somehow not listed. Lol
Just further motivation 8)
Thank you all 😌 I enjoyed writing this report. Hopefully soon we'll have a seven gill report 😂😂
Shots have been fired :o
I loved when she called out his -1.... lol
Ray tried to hide the last piece of squid

I had to lol. We were secretly competing 🤔
You are seriously killing it on Calicos. We've got a bad case of Bass Envy in The OC from looking at all the pics 8)
