East Cape Surf.... What Gives????

[Darian]

Hey gang,.... Posted this on Bajafly, also..... While at Rancho Leonero, we walked down the beach to an freshwater estuary approximately half way between the resort and La Ribera. This estuary was alive with birds, greenery and small fish, etc. Altho somewhat desolate, it was beautiful....

The temp of the water (in June) exiting this estuary was very warm compared to the surrounding water (approx 78 degrees at the time)..... Also, this water provided a low level of turbidity plus a sand bar to cast from to deeper water.... It looked so good, I was really stoked....

However, after an hour and a half of casting/retrieving, NADA Not even a follow... . Fished deep sinking and intermediate heads with a small (3") Sardina fly.... . Thought I'd picked a great spot for sure

Anyone have any insights about what happened here

Don't worry , D. - You'll get 'em next time

Yep,.... Gary Graham said right place wrong time.... His response indicated that the estuary was a very good place to catch a number and variety of fish... . Guess my timing wasn't right . I'll get 'em next time....
