Awsome weather and Flatties on the chew in Goleta

It was just to nice to work today. Snuck out early (being General Manager has it's perks) and hit the surf by about 2:30. Got railed on my second cast. It's on! Ended up with 10 flaties and 2 perch. Biggest went 23.5 (released) and had 2 others that were most likely legal but didn't get measured. Mr. Wookie Wacker had 4 fish with 2 legals. All my fish came on 3 inch redrum Hammers with procure krill sauce. Broke off a good one (8 lb. floroclear) and lost a couple of others. Out by 5:30. It was pretty much wide open.

10...even 20 in a few hours is nowhere near unheard of. How often do you finesse fish 3" hammers, dropshotted gulp/zoom flukes, or toss LC's from the surf? Any of those 3 will get those numbers in the right spots.
