This Jigs Instructional Fishing Academy trip was on the Native Sun out of Long Beach Sportfishing Berth 55. What a GREAT DAY on the water! We had a steady pick on Sand Bass with some Barracuda and a few Halibuts (mostly shorts). This was one of the nicest days on the water I've seen in quite some time, absolutely beautiful weather. <br><br>The jackpot was won by Janet McCormack of Riverside with a large Barracuda. Janet also caught two nice Sandies over 4 pounds. She did really well considering she's just starting out. This trip converted a few more bait fishermen into die hard Kicker Jig fishermen, everyone on board put the Seeker demo rods to good use. All in all not bad for a 3/4 day trip that costs $40 and you get over $15 worth of free stuff. The next Jig Instructional trip on the Native Sun is August 15th, the phone number for Long Beach Sportfishing is (562)432-8993, see you on board. <br><br>Dan Butler<br><br>Fishing Academy ---><b><font color=blue><A HREF="http://www.fishingacademy.com" target="_new">http://www.fishingacademy.com</A></font color=blue></b>
