I love catching the first schoolies of the season. I can easily go catch a few power plant fish now but it feels good to feel the first tug from a fish in the ocean where he belongs. It confirms they're finally back. I also view it as the pre-season where I can start settling into my normal fishing routines, double check that my waders aren't leaking, and that I have odds and ends in the truck I may need throughout the season ahead. It's good to get out on the rocks with friends and feel the cold water too. I always seem to slip and fall into the water for the first time while trying to cast just a little further over the drop off for a 12" fish...

It's just not spring for me until I get out in the evening with friends and catch a schoolie there or at Easton's.

I see an SJR 902 in that pic Pete.With a zoom lens you might make out a troll with pants that appear to be alive for some reason.

I did not go to the West Wall the last two years. I like going to Deep Hole and Carpenters much better....
