Went down on Tuesday Night to find some decent conditions.  Little wind, salad and small waves.

Soon as the kooks cleared out from bobbing on ankle slappers, Steve and I got to work with the long rods.  Steve happened to be right in the hole and I was just on the outskirts apparently.

We got some real bites on some good fish, but all of them happened to be Leopard Sharks.  At least they were all legit 5' leopard sharks!

Squatch with #1

I missed a good bite, then Steve wound up with Shark #5 and the last one of the evening before we packed it in.

We got up to the trucks and my battery was dead.  If it's not my tires, it's my battery I guess at this spot.  LOL

Thanks for reading and today is the last day of the Summer Shark Contest!

Nope.  Brokeback Mountain is in LA.  Saddleback Ridge is the complete opposite of that.  LOL
