Caught a new species today! In total, caught a grey trigger, 3 fluke, and one seabass. First day of the week was a nice success. Got to the beach for sunrise and to get a parking spot, and walked down to the inlet fishing. No action from the surf, but first cast in the inlet, I caught a nice 16" fluke on a 4" white zoom fluke. I didnt get a pic because he broke off my line and dropped in the rocks, and it took a minute to get him out. I switched to the squid because reports have been saying bait is doing better than bucktails. Sure enough, got another smaller fluke, and again dropped him in the rocks before rescuing a second fish. I missed a few bites close to the rocks before I landed this nice trigger. I think it was rather lucky, because the spear fisherman came through not 10 minutes after I landed him. Should be good eating. I caught 1 more short fluke before low tide, where I left and returned for the incoming tide. It was very slow around 1, and one of the only bites resulted in the small seabass. I am not going shark fishing tonight just because I woke up at 4 to drive down today, and the yellow flags were up. Hopefully the rest of the week is just as good, if not better.
