Long Beach Fishing

We finally picked out a new outfit for the Okuma truck and trailer.  It was long overdue since we've updated our logo a couple times over the past few years.  But we finally got it done.
The Expedition is all cleaned up and the Parker 1801 looks pretty good as well.  

We have been out a couple of times over the past couple weeks doing some filming and "Product Testing" on some upcoming gear.  Can't really give any sneak peaks that stuff at this point, but there will be more to come.


On Friday I took out a couple of old friends for a run down to Long Beach harbor to work the wall a little bit, and do a couple of drifts for halibut.  We were right on top of the "Super Blood Blue Moon" which made fishing a little difficult.  We had about an 8' swing in tide, which is awesome, but the fish just didn't want to cooperate.  We decided to fish only artificials for the day. We thru Savage Gear baits like teh TPE Shrimp, Sand Eels, and the new 3D Baitfish.  I did manage one pretty nice Sand Bass inside at one of the oil rigs, but of course, didn't get a picture of it. Oh well.  We drifted around for a few short bites, and managed more short bites on both the inside and outside of the wall.  We even made a run to one of the outside oil islands for nada.
Heck, we had mid 80's weather while the rest of the country is freezing.  I guess we can't complain too much.

Until next time!
Dave
