CHSP Trigs Galore! 8-31-13, Sat
Wow, what a catchin' day! With live sand fleas, I targeted togs and triggerfish. No togs, but I caught one toad and a bunch of triggers.
I caught ten triggers (11 - 17") at the Inner Wall. Some of the triggers were quite feisty.....spooled my reel a couple feet. It was fun. I had a big one spool my line about ten feet as is surfaced to show me its familiar trigger head. It then went deep into a hole, and it disappointingly spit the hook. Anyway, when I was putting the 8th trigger in my fish bag, I was thinking I hope I don't catch any more fish because the bag was already full......lol... I got tired of taking pics after every catch so I didn't snap all fish.

Thanks, Joe, for all the tips you've passed on to us from all your fishing/spearing experience at CHSP.
Did I go to the Outer Wall, even though the water was very calm? It was noon and I had already bagged 10 triggers. Had plenty keepers so I decided not to go. For what.....lol....
Anyway, triggers are delicious so I'm a happy camper. My neighbor loves fish too.
The wx turned out to be near perfect. Mostly sunny. The wind was light. The water was nearly flat with less than a foot chops in the afternoon. So, this has to be among the best yak fishing trips - my best ever at CHSP.
