on saturday, me, aaron, chris, and another friend went to cabrillo beach. as we arrived, we saw a gigantic kelp paddy just outside of where the waves break. we decided that we wanted to fish that. so we got suited up and went down to the sand. we were waiting for that little pause between the swells before we went. we waited and waited. finally, it came. we all headed out and then the waves were back. this time it was a bigger batch of waves. chris and aaron both rode one of the waves in.but me on the other hand, well..... the wave got the better half of me. the wave broke right on top of me. my tube flipped upside down, i went tumbling underwater with the wave, and i lost my brand new rod. oh well it was cheap.
we went into shore and decided just to fish the bay. there was some kelp over there, so we fished that. I was using a rod that chris let me borrow. I caught my first fish on a plastic from a tube, and i caught my first legal sand bass from a tube. it was cool. I totally forgot about my rod.
the bass was 13 inches, but i let it go.
throughout the whole day, I caught 4 sand bass, and a lizard fish, i think thats what it was called.
