Last nights full moon was quite a site. Orange ball rising on the eastern horizon around 9pm - looked more like a sunrise. Clouds rolled in around 10... then the bite started. Did very well considering the phase - ran out of eels. Key was tying direct.

Didn't get out until after the moon reappeared... 
Bite was non-existant... It was also dead low, so that didn't help either. |

DZ, Had time for an unexpected quick outing last night. Saw the big orange ball out in front of Newport. You're right, it looked like a sunrise - I had to do a time check. Great view. I got chased off with the lightning at about 9:15 (couldn't stay much past 10 anyway). Got into blues only. Should have had more stones to stay. Lightning was off in the distance, but looked like it was heading my way.

Go chased off the water twice by lightning last night. All I got for my effort was a bunch of cigar butt eels and a couple of blues.

No kidding, as I walked towards the beach the moon was like a giant flashlight beam. It was golden, quite a sight.  |

It was awesome, also we had as many bass as we wanted, they didn't seem to care about the moon or head lamps or anything they just wanted to eat and eat they did |
