Wow, that's just sick. Loved the way they would surf down the wave after the lure.....dt

Thanks Russ, that is way better than a cappucino to get the blood pumping on a windy and otherwise unfishable day.

Great surf-fisher's video, Russ.
And perfect timing for me to watch it...I'm just finishing breakfast and will soon be ready for some serious tackle shopping. Am off
today to a few places like Fisherman's Landing, Squidco, Big 5, and Hook-Line-N-Sinker here in Shelter Island, San Diego.
This is my day and week ahead for using a great Christmas gift to buy everything from circle hooks to rod butts. A couple new trolling & casting
rods and reels will help fill my stocking, along with a gunnel flillet board and barbeque for the Cortez camping boat.
Can't wait until those roosters hit Bean Rocks again this coming March-April.
Rooster flashback. Ah..those pez gallo at Punta Chivato back in the day..
3 of us oldtimers..Me, Bill Alvarado, and George Staples used to keep our surf rods at the ready just below the hotel steps. When you heard someone
yell...ROOSTERS!...off you went to grab your rig out of the pvc pipes and pitch your favorite lure into those tall dorsal fins slicing through the
baitfish. We had many triple hookups over the years with a gallery cheering us on from the patio bar above.
Saul of La Palapa cafe was one of the bartenders back then, along with Pepe Piano and Nasty Nettie's hubby, Hector. One of them would always bring
us cuba libres to cool us down during our battle with the roosters! You can imagine that made the event a helluva fun time after a couple c-cktails
wading the shallows hooked to a huge rooster!
Man..those were some fun days!
Thanks for the fire in my belly after watching that surf movie. Now I'm pumped more than ever to return to great fishing times in the SOC.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.
