Lucky Craft fans all around the world~! It is time for the Daily Flash Minnow Report.
It is again another fishing report from Redondo Beach, CA. This time I went with Mr. Iwaki!!
As same as last time, our destination was to the rocky point where it is also a kelp area!
I starting casting with a FM130 and a Barracuda kept chasing after it, but it realize what it was. What a disappointment.
I changed the size to a 110, but the Barracuda seemed to not chase after it anymore. Instead, I kept fishing Mackerels!
Hmmmmm! Since I got bad memories from last time, I’m not satisfied yet!!
Mr. Iwaki as usual, didn’t run into any difficult situations and caught a Barracuda with a FM110!! He had caught it with a slow retrieve. So I also casted and performed a slow retrieve, but caught nothing! And then our fishing day has ended!
This time I actually tried speaking to other fishermen and asked, “Why can’t I catch anything?” And then he advised me, “Well, lately the atmospheric condition hasn’t been good with the tides and due to the rapid change in water temperature the fishes are migrating elsewhere!”
He also mentioned that in 2 weeks it should be in good condition! We promised we’ll see each other next time and he is my very first fishing buddy, who is also a Nikkei (Japanese American), that I made since I started fishing!
Mr. Iwaki brilliantly caught a BIG Sting Ray as well!!

Next time I’ll come back here in 2 weeks~!
Next week I want to catch some Halibut, but I need to be more cautious about the tide condition!! Ok now, how will I research that! I forgot to ask the most important thing!

See you next time!
