Fished Newport Harbor with Peter. I arrived a couple hours before him at 1600. 10-15mph wind in the face, cold. Awful tide swing, low at noon and high at 0400 the next day, all you need to know.
Found a decent sized blackgill rockfish washed up, relatively fresh. Somebody f@cked up and probably learned that they f@cked up once they got to the harbor.

I wanted to experiment with a floating Powerbait egg on a short c-rig on UL to see if I could find a little critter to commit. I got several taps but nothing committed.
Switched over to flukes on neck breakers once Peter arrived around 1800. Wind still howling. We ended up each getting one.

Left around 19:45.
I wanna make Tuesdays my weekday fishing days for the time being, to accommodate Alicia's school schedule among other things. Next Tuesday is a little ridiculous with the wind and rain but sometimes that's fun.
Tuesdays are for Tacos and Fishing, I like it 8)
