Finally a little beach action - 09/28/08 05:48 PM
With beach fishing running just short of a bust this year I have put very little time in lately. After watching Ole Miss beat up on my Gators yesterday I decided today to get out to get the dog some exercise and throw a hootchie/spinner for a while with very low expectations. To my suprise I was able to entice this little beauty to inhale my offering. -TBJ

nice - I take it that it must have hit very close to shore? I cant seem to fling those hootchie/spinner combos very far so I usually skip over them for buzz bombs or something heavier - might have to give those a try again!
Still trying for my first off the beach myself.

That's a nice coho. Have only seen one jumper on our beach. Hit a cutthroat before dark and lost it.

I was hoping for a thong.

An area 9 coho off the beach is reason to celebrate this season! Nice work landing such a pretty fish. My son and I (he's 7) fished Saturday's high tide and he was throwing the hootchie spinner. Some fish around, but I think they were Chum moving through - pourposing just out of casting distance.
Not one fish off the beach on Saturday's evening high tide at Bush Pt. that I saw.
