Sunday afternoon I hit the honey hole and Fayerweather Island with my 8 footer and Fierce 2000. Low tide was scheduled for 3:06 and started walking out to the honey hole at 2:40. Air was warm and dry, wind was a steady 5 to 10 southwest, and skies were mostly sunny.

I played with a number of lures but only got 2 explosions on an XRW-13 at the honey hole. Nothing everywhere else.

Issues I was having at the honey hole were floating weeds, waves from boat traffic, and west and southwest winds causing the braid to occasionally make 1 wrap around the rod tip while pencil popping and walk-the-dog.

Will be back out Wednesday and Friday. Low tides will be in the evening and moon will be new. Just gotta keep an eye on Wednesday's forecast.

Didn't make it out today due to a thunderstorm and line of showers associated with the cell that hit my area. The cell arrived around 3:30 and the line of showers lasted til 5.
