Were the target, managed a couple checkers instead. Hit the sand a little late, as usual, with Binh. Great conditions.
Binh was first with a toad calico at 20" off of squish. I invited it home for dinner and it gladly accepted.

I managed a checker of my own, a 12"er that was sent back. Mack was the ticket.

Brought my critter rod along as well and some market shrimp. Had one solid bite all night long. Strange I didn't have more success as the critters were totally stripping my baits.

Missed a couple rod shakers, I'm guessing they were eels as some of my baits came back pretty raked. We called it at 11:30pm. Nice night, just not a lot of action.
Obligatory bass on the cutting board pic to give everyone an idea of its chunkiness. Belly was empty.

May give it another shot tonight.
Critter rod and squish heads are the ticket Mike.

Was trying to accomplish 2 things with the critter rod, catch fresh bait and bring home some fresh fish for my mom. I didn't put much effort into it though. I actually put the rod down to tend to the long rod and then forgot about it. If I make it out tonight, it's looking like I will, I'll put a little effort into it.
You got me on the title! lol
Well done guys. I can't even remember the last surf checker I hooked. 8)
Ditto ...
So, how was the bass ?
Oh... And is that Binhs hand or your hand with the rag holding the bass' mouth?

Yeah...
That's kind of embarassing ;D
What the hell are you guys drinking?!! There's only one hand in the pic and it's mine. Binh was busy massaging my shoulders ;)
