It is getting weird out there. We had the big high pressure cooker over the weekend, then the big wind to blow it out of here, then this morning an ash fall, a red dawn and now a smoke haze you cant see through. The fish did not seem to care much. I got some nice top water fish and lost a hard pulling mystery fish at the end. Those mystery fish are the ones that stay in your mind and bring you back. Grab-dive-off. You go from hero to zero in about one second and then you have a nearly unlimited amount of time to think about it. The cure is to get back out there and land one.
I got the boat in but it was still too dark to do much so I took some red dawn shots. My boat flag is sticking up. It may save me from getting run over by a boat someday.
The sun is up but it is still pretty dark.
This one was right up against those tules.
That rock is a good tide height indicator and a nice ambush point for fish to hang out and wait for my bug.
