Lot's of fish in the high 30 lb to low 40 lb. All on eels. Nothing breaking but a big fish on every cast. The commercial guys took a few thousand pounds of Bass off the beach that night. As I recall it was mid tide drop with the wind right in our face.

The same thing happened several nights in that same place, but we had to throw everything back as it was before July 1, with a one fish limit at the time. I think June/July 1986 the fishing was just as good there, but most of the fish were 25 plus pounds.The fall of 1993,2001, and 2002 on the back was best for me. If you fished during those times, you know the details of size and quantity landed. It was really nice fishing.
