Saturday we got up and headed to the lost coast for some fishing. We hiked in about 2 miles in the sand and wind. The first hole was good to us, I caught all my fish there, about 8 rainbow perches and 1 rock greenling. Scott caught a rock greenling and lost a big lingcod but he was using a lure which was cool, I used live bait. Then we moved to our next spot where I got lots last time but it was low tide so it wasn't fishable. Then we went to another hole and Scott got some rainbow perch. Then we headed to the beach for some redtail perch but I didn't catch anything and Scott was using his lure and got a huge black rockfish. I was putting on my hooks and looked back and he was wet up to his knees and was holding this huge fish. I have a video but can't download it, needless to say we had the fish for dinner and it was really good!
The fish weighted 4.25 pounds
The prized fish of the day
The coolest part was the it was in shallow waters about 2 feet in the surf. Usually people don't catch these fish unless they are out in the deep water.
My first rock greenling...to small to keep but pretty colors.
First cast and I get double hook up. Never have caught two fish at the same time!
