This time I went rock fishing for the first time in Newport Beach. I walked about 15 minutes along the rocky tract and finally arrived at the point of the peninsula. There were only about 3 fishermen and I thought, “cool~!”. I then started to cast.
I kept casting since early morning and I didn’t even get a hit. I was in an awful condition. The fishermen around me were only catching about 2 to 3 Mackerels and were disappointingly saying, “can’t really fish today~”. This time I couldn’t even figure out the reason… what do I need to do? After passing 1pm and feeling pretty awful, I decided to go back the road I came from. I didn’t want this fishing day to go to waste, so I started to practice other fishing techniques as long as I could. I head towards the rocky area and on the left hand side there was an inland sea, where I decided to challenge on Top lure actions for the very first time. Surprisingly it was extremely fun!! Instead of the fish reacting to it, the birds in the sky were more curious! If I continue to practice on Top lure actions, it will definitely come in use in Bass fishing. So I kept practicing with a spinning reel for about an hour, then I ended my fishing day.
Next time, as long as the weather is good I will be heading towards Catalina Island for fishing, so please stay tuned for my next trip!

See everybody next time!
