Hit up the bay bridge for some livelining action. Launched at SPSP, which took me about 45min to get in cause the line was just insane it wrapped around all the way to the rt 50 exits. Once I got on the water, I started fishing for spot but had no luck, so I packed it in and decided to make my way over to the eastern side of the bridge. It sucks that we can't launch at Hemmingways because to go from one side to the other is a hike.
Once I reached the eastern side, I ran into stupidjet. He had been fishing for spot but only managed to catch 3. We fished for spot for over an hour I only managed to get 3 and he had about half a dozen, it seemed like I managed to catch every other species besides spot, baby rock, baby blues, and tons of perch. So we decided to go at it with what we had. Well, the first spot I threw in the water I managed to hook a nice 23incher. I then hooked another spot, threw it in the same area and boom, got another hit but he spit the hook and the spot came back all mangled. So, with one more spot left, I went up a few pilons and all i can say is that the spot was not a trooper. It died pretty quickly. It was already 4pm and I had about an hour peddle to the other side so I started heading back to the western side. Ran into stupidjet again and he managed to bring in a 30incher. Ill wait for him to post his report.
Overall, good day out on the water. The striper are def. in but spot are really scarce. Might go back out tomorrow.
