Low tide 6:30 am, manage to push the boat off the trailer, air temp 46, wind E @10 kts, seas 1-2. Hit the Yamaha first, had to catch 8 AJ's to get a limit of 2 > 30", on white 6 oz bucktail jigs. Move out to 75 feet with live bottom, catch about 20 shorts. Move in to 65 feet, nothing but sea bass. Next spot a ledge in 55 feet, nothing there. Next is another patch of live bottom, with > 2 feet of relief. Pick up two 21" reds. a 24" gag, the a 25" red. LY's and mackeral both worked today. Trolled and bottom fished 2 more areas in 30 -45 feet, no luck. Rain moved in around 2 pm, called it a day. Good news is water temp is up to 60 -61 degrees, clarity fair, visibility maybe 20 feet. Bite was much more agressive than last trip, red snapper are still holding in 70 feet :( .
