Left the marina a bit late due to traffic and went right to the naval pier for a try at weakies but only got 1 hit. Saw what I thought were weakies on the screen but it was my first try them so what do I know!? It was incoming tide and according to all the reports the weakies don't hit until the outgoing so we went to the rips to drift eels and found way worse conditions than expected. We drifted a for a while and decided to run around a bit. Went to the SH channel and to romers and out towards breezy point. we tried a secret spot I have only to find a party boat there and then we went back to the rips only to realize that the eels were not on the menu. Just as we were saying last drift I got a run on the baitrunner that lasted 2 sec. and 10 seconds later it took off again, I grabbed the rod and it was attached to tonights 29" deep fried bass dinner. Did a few more drifts with nothing and ran back to the naval pier for a try at the out going for the weak fish but saw no marks and we all had to work in the am. 4 guys and 1 fish is not a good night out but we all had a good time.
