#9802, "Carpinteria State Beach 5/25"


  

          

Well after tuesday nights adventure I thought I would hit up Carp state beach again this morning. I get there to find the water color and the waves good, but the weeds made it almost unfishable! but everytime I was about to give up I would get bit!, and as the tide receeded the weeds got a tiny bit better. This time I only got a few good sized perch with most of them on the smaller side. I ended with 15 perch to about a pound and a half and two short halibuts, one 13in and the other 21 and 7/8s !! all caught on motoroil/redflake Hammer rubs with saltwater formula pro-cure (yes even the halibuts!)...Larry



Real fish are measured in pounds - not inches!

Larry, as good as the 1 3/4" BH motoroil grubs have been on perch and halibut, I wonder if BH should also start making longer grubs to catch even more and bigger halibut. In norcal I never tried grubs for halibut, but for years there I caught good-size rockfish and lings drifting and jigging motoroil grubs from 3 to 6" (until I found that lings preferred BH swimbaits to grubs). I have also heard that 4" power pulse worms have done well on calicos down south, so why not 3 to 6" BH grubs for a variety of species? For example, I bet such BH grubs would take a variety of species using long casts at Haskel's when the rockfish/ling season opens. Thanks for the great reports. Bob

Good Point Salmonoid,

My favorite grub rig is double. One in front of the other. The front grub with or without tail. I get better results this way and I often wish the manufacturers make 2.5" skinny grubs.
